If they started early enough, they could have gotten almost everyone out who wanted to leave.

According to liberals, incompetence and stupidity is always confused with a conspiracy. Think about it.

Why not tell the union to stick it and let city employees or civilians run the buses?

I truly hope we really have hearings, The RATS run every city like this and this should be a wakeup call to all big cities of what they face with RATS in office.

The best part is this stupid mayor running around complaining and blaiming everyone else for everything while he just contributed to the sense of chaos.

Blanco and Bush met privately at his insistence, Nagin said...

Why wouldn't he want to be in that meeting? Why would he have to insist on a private meeting? This sounds as though he was having two subordinates work out something he was only supervising.

As I read it, the "his" in that sentence refers to GWB's insistence, not Nagin's.

I think that it was appropriate for the president, on behalf of the federal government, to meet privately with the governor, the head of the state government. In a private setting, they could be brutally candid with each other without pressure to "play nice" with each other.

I can hardly envision the possibility of a governor and the president bowing to the 'insistence' of a feckless mayor.
