If you cannot take the time be educated before you write, why do you expect anyone to respect your opinions? Nagrin was the one who left hundreds of busses to be destroyed by flood. Just that act not only stranded thousands of residents, but it destroyed over a million dollars worth of busses.

You know what.....you're right. They should never have left those buses out so that if the worst happened, they would be vulnerable to flooding. In disaster planning, the people in charge are supposed to prepare for the absolute worst case scenario. Clearly NO did not..........of course it had been many years, if ever, that the seawalls had been breeched.

However, having said that, given what happened in N.O., those buses the right takes out and whips every time the issue of NO comes up were hardly the worst of the faux pas done during that disaster. The worst of the faux pas sit directly on the lap of the feds under Mr. Bush. Never in my entire life have I seen a more incompentent job performed by the feds in response to a disaster. And I went through the earthquake in LA.

So stop with the complaining about Nagin. He was part of the problem and not the cause of the problem. Your man Bush was..........while NO burned, I mean flooded......Mr. Bush was in San Diego entertaining GOP contributers with his fiddle, I mean guitar. I think that pretty much says it all.
