OT: "They said they had a plan..." |
Seems half the corporate media chants "better than New Orleans" like a
ritualistic prayer to The Party. But I remain of the opinion that Houston
was merely lucky.
"[Houston Mayor] White expressed concern at the state's slow response to
city requests for assistance in traffic control and extra gasoline.
"'They said they had a plan,' he said. 'They said they had a timetable.'
"But there was no plan for contraflow lanes, the mayor said. So, the city
asked Gov. Rick Perry's staff in the middle of the night to get contraflow
lanes working, and the effort got under way immediately after that."

"We're angry, Mr. President, and we'll be angry long
after our beloved city and surrounding parishes have
been pumped dry. Our people deserved rescuing.
Many who could have been were not. That's to the
government's shame."

Unlike Gov Blanco's position of "let's wait 24 hours".
