they were Halliburton employees? /sarcasm I suspect there is more to this story...perhaps the bus was sent BY the Hyatt explicitly for their guests. I find that if you dig beyond the superficial story the liberal conspiracies tend to go away.
Ain't that the truth, but, that takes effort.
From what I heard, this was a group of people (mostly foreign tourists) who had raised money to charter buses to take them out of the city, but when the buses arrived, the "governor" commandeered them for use in evacuation efforts. So you could look at like these people finally getting what they had paid for.

According to a British publication, the white tourists in the Superdome were being harrassed and attacked because of their skin color. They were moved to the Hyatt for safety reasons. The Mayor made sure they were able to get out. They had hired buses earlier and paid for them but FEMA took those buses. I really can't blame the Mayor on this one. Tourists should be a priority not because they are an important part of the economy but because they are guests in this country.
There is so much information coming out so I want to put out that I'm not sure if those the Mayor got out were tourists. I assume they were because I know they were placed in a hotel and I believe it was the Hyatt.
