From August 28th AP:
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — In the face of a catastrophic Hurricane Katrina, a mandatory evacuation was ordered Sunday for New Orleans by Mayor Ray Nagin.
Acknowledging that large numbers of people, many of them stranded tourists, would be unable to leave, the city set up 10 places of last resort for people to go, including the Superdome.
The mayor called the order unprecedented and said anyone who could leave the city should. He exempted hotels from the evacuation order because airlines had already cancelled all flights.
Gov. Kathleen Blanco, standing beside the mayor at a news conference, said President Bush called and personally appealed for a mandatory evacuation for the low-lying city, which is prone to flooding.
Too bad the idiot corrupt Dems in charge of Louisiana and NO
don't adminster their state in a manner to ensure public safety. Which.is.
their.job Maybe in follow up to this disaster, the citisens of America's cities will realise how corrupt and ineffective the entrenched liberals in charge of their cities are and put some responsible adults (i.e. Republicans) in charge.
