If you find that transcript I think it would be worthy of your ping list.
It's showing time since landfall.
Ya know, since the media, CBC, and dems insist that we must talk about the racial angle of this, let's talk about it. Most of those buses didn't start showing up to the city center, and especially at the convention center, until after Texas had ramped up massive amounts of shelter capacity. Yet buses have been evacuating the wealthier western suburbs to Baton Rouge since early Wed. evening. Is the state of LA trying to push the poorest of NOLA's inner city into Texas, hoping that most won't eventually return to the state?
Just asking, since Jesse Jackson says that the race angle of this is unavoidable.
Oh Gee .... I'm sooooooooo glad I switched over to CNN ... NOT!!
BTW, that post is more fighting media/left fire with fire, than an actual belief.
What would have happened if the mayor started selling the fuel to his buddies? What would have happened if the hurricane had damaged the tanks and they were filled with water?
What would have happened if the generators got damaged because they were not hooked up properly?
As mush as I do not like regulations, they often have some reason behind them.
The reporters are too lazy to ask for reasons and some freepers are too quick to get caught by the media.
I saw that butt-patting press conference. I wish these guys would stop congratulating each other! This has not been a stellar moment for anybody.
Im fairly petite BUT - I'll hold him while you slap him
I can just hear him saying that...sadly there are people who will believe him just as they think AIDS and crack were invented to kill black people.
**The article below was written in anticipation of the storm. Especially read Nagin's remarks in the last two short paragraphs.

This article was written last September, in 2004.
Were they talking about Hurricane Ivan?
If they're tried for being the worst PD in a major US city, will there be enough evidence to convict?
Amen! So do I!
why is that FEMA's problem? just like the hotel that spent $25K to charter 10 buses to evacuate their own guests - FEMA comandeered them. why? its one thing to stop them and determine their purpose, but if their purpose is proper (evacuation) and in line with the overall goal of getting relief in there, they should be allowed to conduct a private operation.
if somebody has a private generator, and arranges to fuel it, that should be permissible.
I do that too .... FOFL!!!
Thanks for the first laugh I've had all day
ha! Idiot mayor got his friends out of the Hyatt ahead of the SD people.....what a twit.
Shep just said Nagin put the foreign tourists ahead of the line on the bus. Must have made friends with them while he was holed up in the Hyatt.
Just as well, Caferty is getting worse by the day... and I complain about him by the day.
