What's so appauling is the outright lying they're doing.

Agreed, it makes my skin crawl.

I'm simply amazed at how brittle civilization is.

We think awful highly of ourselves, don't we?

Caption this.

Why weren't all these buses used during the initial evac??

The mayor and gov of LA (along with FEMA) will have a lot of explaining to do.

Given that they're in New Orleans actually getting to those buses (much less assuming they'll still run) has probably been all but impossible since they haven't been able to get any help to move around the city for 5 days.

And those buses might run just fine, but there's no one in the city to drive them and they haven't had any sort of order to get people to the buses or get them out of that water filled lot.

Scratch that... you said the initial evacuation... Well, that my friend is a very good question and one that I echo.

[Butchers Bill]

They should have been available during the initial evac (prior to the levees breaking).

[TexasEagle]

Right, I read your post wrong at first. Mea Culpa. That's an excellent question.
