Just the FACTS ma’am
Thursday, September 8th, 2005The guys over at Blogs for Bush have compiled what I am sure is just the start of a list of Facts that must be straightened out and that have been terribly distorted in the MSM. See the entry for future reference.
WHO WAS IN CHARGE OF THE BUSES AND WHAT HAPPENED TO THE EFFORT?FACT: Available Buses Were Not Used To Evacuate Before The Hurricane: “Some 200 New Orleans school buses sit underwater in a parking lot, unused. That’s enough to have evacuated at least 13,000 people. Why weren’t those buses sent street by street to pick up people before the storm? A draft emergency plan, prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and obtained by NBC News, calls for “400 buses to … evacuate victims.” Yet those 200 buses were left in Katrina’s path.” (Lisa Myers, “What Went Wrong In Katrina’s Wake?” MSNBC, 9/6/2005)
