Okie, dokie. Let's examine that statement. NOBODY evacuates from tornadoes. You get in the basement and pray your basement survives. NOBODY evacuates from earthquakes. You get in a door jamb or a bathroom when the shaking starts and home the roof doesn't fall on you.
This woman is beyond dumb. She is gross public dumb, as they say in the Army. The only evacuation possible is before a hurricane. And that takes buses and drivers. Best information is that the school bus drivers evacuated, without their buses. Though Nagin has come up with a different explanation, that most of them are women who were "too afraid to drive the buses."
Odds are, Nagin is lying again, just like Landrieu did in this interview. But didn't enough cops take a powder (just like the Mayor did) to drive all the buses? Lies piled on lies. Stupidity piled on stupidity.
Every time a Louisiana Democrat opens his or her mouth, the total I.Q. of the Eastern United States drops a point and a half. If people hadn't died here, and if all Americans weren't going to be stuck with the bill, this would be the best comedy of the new season.

"most of them are women who were "too afraid to drive the buses."
Oh, so they were lazy, shiftless, good-for-nothin' (and 70% black) per Senator Landrieu, and they were stereotypical weak and fearful women, per Mayor Nagin.
My, my. Such progressive attitudes these Democrats have.

where can i join the class action lawsuit against the State of Louisiana for wasting my tax dollars???
You see it was all a bad mistake...the local TV stations played an old Jesse Jackson sound bite that said "Stay out of the Bushes!"
However due to the atmospheric distortion and and echo effect it sounded like "STAY OUTTA DA BUSES! STAY OUTTA DA BUSES!!!"
All too true John, and at this point I am alternately moved to guffaws of derision, and tears of despair at what our nation is becoming...
