Wednesday

A must read.

They knew. Everyone knew. FEMA knew. This from the Houston Chronicle in 2001. I admit, it scared me.

So did the mayor and the governor of the state. Who had immediate responsibility for those now submerged buses that could have evacuated the poor of the city? Bush or the mayor?

He's no Rudy.

National Geographic and IIRC Popular Science had articles about it years ago too.
I recall reading (I think from the NGS article) that there was something like 200,000+ body bags sitting in storage, ready to be used in case a hurricaine hit.

There are certain Americans Bush cares about, and certain ones he does not care about. Do you honestly think he would have waited five days if the hurricane had struck Mobile, AL instead? Do you honestly think 9/11 would have come to pass if the targets were Houston oil refineries?
