Who says they had to make only one trip... there was about a weeks
notice... a hundred busses coulda moved 100,000 people to safe ground
in two-three days easy, and there were a heck of a lot more than 100
busses in that city... and I darn well saw an awful lot of media shots
with railroad tracks, coulda moved em all out in less than 12 hours
before those tracks went under water... AND by rail it would have been
pretty simple for folks to load all their goods too, most would've lost
nothing. There was no PLAN, the friggin' INCOMPETANT **** of a
governor should be executed. Of course the real reason for all the
aftermath chaos couldn't be simpler, the pinheads *refused* to leave...
but the powers that be coulda forced them... *shoulda* comes a day late
and billion$ too short.
Bush did nothing wrong, NOTHING WRONG, wasn't the feds responsibility
to move people out, only to help reconstruct *afterwards*, and there
Bush is doing a great job, as great as any Prez could. The people who
were inconvenienced have no one to blame but themselves... and trust
me, they were only inconvenienced... I would have bet a whole lot more
would have died. To hear folks ***** you'd think those folks expected
to be put up in the Waldorf penthouse. A lot of them weren't any worse
off in those public shelters than they lived in their shantys (you
think where they lived didn't stink), a lot were better off, especially
the kids, for many it was the first time they were ever examined by a
doctor.
I blame only the local officials of all those affected areas for not
having the sense of of an amoeba, here they were WARNED, they KNEW a
CLASS FIVE hurricane was bearing down, getting it's target lined up
just so, and all the while those brain dead officials just sat on their
fat butts staring at the wall, day after day, hour by hour, right to
the last minute and second, they did nothing, NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING ! ! ! I think those scum need to be tried for crimes against
hunanity, if not for their exceptionally low IQs they'd be truly no
less guilty than Saddom. I suppose they can plead insanity, in fact if
you listen to the media that's precisely what those retards are
scrambling desparately to do. Those NOLA officials are definitely
guilty of far more horrendous crimes than any of those looters.
