Remember Hurricane Katrina? Ray Nagin had school buses under water. Governor Blanco didn’t know up from down.

Newscasters, Brian Williams was one, lying about dead bodies floating past windows. All the cops left town.

Democrats.....now these past two major hurricanes in states run by Republicans....doing great job.

The buses were all nicely lined up and could have been utilized. BUT...the Union drivers said it was not part of their contract.

You mean you couldn't use Military reserve guys as drivers or other arrangements.

Alright, back from 8:00 am Mass, said a good number of prayers for y'all, publically and privately!

Good point, Pat! Yet even as New Orleans flooded (due to mainly local incompetence with the levees and pumps) during Katrina, the Mississippi coast was hammered by the full force of her, much more so than the nearly Louisiana coast, which was in the mainly lee part of the West.

Having suffered MORE damage, and totally ignored by the driveby media due to New Orleans and the Bush and FEMA screwing up meme, the Mississippians were able to get back up and get to work, cleaning up Biloxi and Gulfport, Pass Christian and other coastal places, long before the New Orleans government even figured out a plan.

Why?

Mississippi was/is Republican-led.

Exactly Fish brilliant post.

Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas and Gov.Rick Scott here in Fla. have done a terrific job managing their states in the midst of huge disasters. Pres.Trump is right there as well giving each governor exactly what they need.

Gov. Scott talking about how he has the presidents cell number and is in constant contact with him. You just don't hear about it. We have some truly great leaders.
