Subject: RE: Outraged over Bush! (Hurricane Katrina)
Carolc, there is just too much in this thread to cover. Can anyone answer as to why the buses to remove people on SATURDAy went unfilled?
The reason so many buses ended up underwater was 1. Nobody would used them on Saturday and 2. poor planning keep them in their low level parking lots rather than on the elevated freeways and their ramps. The Mayor doth protest too much, I think. Can you say "covering his ass by blaming others for the lack of planning by the city?"
The city of New Orleans and The State of LA screwed up. Granted, the Feds did not do much better but this was basically a city/state responsibility.
