Out of curiosity, have you seen anything in the press suggesting that there were 50,000 or 60,000 people in New Orleans who would have gotten on schools buses to evacuate, and instead couldn't leave the city? 'Cause if that number of people were stuck there under those circumstances, I'd expect a lot of righteous indignation about it to be bubbling up in the stories written about the survivors, and I'm not seeing it.
