Did anyone just see the exchange between Anderson Cooper and Eddie Compass? He tried to pin the chief down on the evacuation issue and the chief about blew a circuit breaker.
About that time you couuld see fast Eddie get confused because a reporter strayed from the DNC talking points and blurted out, "We asked for more buses, we BEGGED for more buses." Then he added, the buses in New Orleans were surrounded by water and we couldn't get to them!"
It went down hill after that.
How were the school buses under water before the hurricane came? Hmmmmm?
Please ping me if you get the transcript!
Thanks! and Thanks for the post!
I couldn't believe what I saw. From Anderson cooper of all people.I laughed so hard when Coooper said he wanted to understand so he could ask the Governor. Eddie looked like a Deer in the headlights.
Did Anderson ask this question? Eddie Compass is a liar and a shill for the Dems.
I have never watched Anderson Cooper. Is he any good?
They say he is supposed to unseat the FoxNews ratings.
No, Cooper didn't ask it. This is going to come back to haunt Eddie and I think he realized it. Cooper rerun would be worth rewatching just for the Eddie interview.
As the African American woman said on Rush today,
You bet those buses were in use on election day.
LOL!
Is Eddie the one that was on with Geraldo that night that Geraldo freaked out with the baby? There was a black official that was saying they were on the verge of a riot and Geraldo was being the typical Drama Queen.
Compass police buddy who was said to have committed suicide, this needs to be looked into.
"We asked for more buses, we BEGGED for more buses."
I saw them beg. It was for the Superdome evacuation, not pre-hurricane evacation.
Cooper should ask the state evacuation planners about the plans faults. Police Chief does not design them, does not operate them. Operates under them.
As for the begging - that was to the state. What's their response?
Operation Save Blanco full steam ahead.
Ted Koppel got into it with him last night....Eddie Compass leaned toward him threatening and raised his voice.
The guy is a thug, just like Mayor Hyroglyphics and the rest...
They are forcibly removing their own citizens, yet ordered the Houston Police to take no action against all those NOPD cruisers still driving around their city.
2 many buts!
Anderson Cooper is an overemotional communist.
He is no good. He is usually on the DNC talking points .
"Notice how often the Democrat Party sells out the loyal African-American."
You smart hombre.
Two things at work. One, over the past two or three days MSM has been broaching the topic of "local" mistakes. The Dem money elite talking points counter attacked by pointing to the mayor. He will lose. He doesn't have the PR resources, Dems will abandon him.
Two, future money. If "Hugs" Blanco looks unclean, fed money into state coffers will be harder to gain.
Tancredo's right. No state or local officials should hold the pursestrings to fed reconstruction money. Nagin is reputedly honest, but certainly other local pols aren't.
