Oh my God....
This is going to be awful... and, this time... It’s a Republican Govenor... no excuses.
“This is going to be awful... and, this time... It’s a Republican Govenor... no excuses.”
If people refuse to leave, it certainly is not the Gov.’s fault!!
They have been warned and provided transportation out of harm’s way....if they die..it is their own damn fault!
So what would you have the “Republican” Governor do?
During Rita when they tried to evacuate Houston a city of 5 million people a hundred and ten people died in the evacuation itself who would’ve survived by staying put.
It is very different from evacuating New Orleans.
They have told everybody to get off Galveston Island.
If half of them didn’t because they didn’t want to...
No excuses??
Uh huh.
The government can make as many opportunities to evacuate available to people as possible, but in the end, it’s down to the individual to stay or go. During Katrina, Ray Nagin and Kathleen Blanco didn’t even make the opportunities available—remember that sad post-storm picture of hundreds of school buses sitting hood-deep in water and oil, buses that could’ve been used to give thousands of people a shot at getting out if they wanted?
Of course, if I heard right, the mayor of Galveston didn’t change the evacuation order from voluntary to mandatory until around 10:30 am YESTERDAY. Cutting it a little fine there, Yer Honor?

A democrat Governor could have stopped Ike?
The sky ain't falling.
