Absolutely sickening. And he's blaming Bush and the Feds for what is happening.

Those buses are used exclusively for busing on Election Day. They are off limits.

IMO it actually would have been more effective to have a statewide plan to use buses from outside NOLA.

School bus drivers in NOLA would be more concerned about getting their families out than driving out others and them coming back to get their families. Unless, of course, you had a plan to train 2,000 guardsmen to get CDLs and drive the buses.

But if you used buses from outside the target area, the drivers would go to NOLA, pick up the passengers and drive them to the shelter areas - and then drive home and would be with their families outside the disaster area.

What are you trying to do here?! This is a CRISIS. You aren't SUPPOSED to show photos like these!

Now do a better job and show photos of the mayhem and mobs of angry people who are demanding what they are "owed" from the federal government!

My guess is that there are no drivers for these buses...and if there were...then they'd have to be union guys...and they'd demand overtime pay.

Keep bumping this until this picture makes it to media, e-mail it to FOX, Hannity, Rush, CNN, 700 Club & for good measure post it on DU site

You can see these buses on the satellite photo National Review has linked to on their site.
