WTF is "School Bus" doing in China?

Guess he's just looking for some yellow kids to match his buses.

Oh please let there be a followup tag pending and then either a dumbass or FAIL tag following that. Let's keep this thing rolling as long as we can. Trainwrecks are best when they take a long time to unfold.

Can they keep him? Like, indefinitely?

He's probably waiting for FEMA to bail his worthless azz out of there.

BTW, has he mentioned who's funding this junket, or is it a hazy memory already?

Passing through on his way to Australia. Don't ask me why he was headed to Australia.

Is New ORleans making a profit yet? They oughta discount his salary as he's not doin' his job right now.

/not to say he was doin' his job before
//or ever

If only China would keep C-Ray until the end of his term! Nah, they'd just send Veronica White to take his place and then we'd have e-mail reveals all over the place. Oh well, it makes for good morning gossip.

Yeah, they did about as well on thier last earthquake as Nagin did on Katrina.

I really hate that guy. I wish he was white so I could say that out loud without being a racist, but instead he gets a pass.

Subby: bacon flavored chocolate anyone?

Been done. (new window)

Back when my father was convinced that the secret to eternal life and happiness was in gourmet chocolate bars, he tried this and offered me a bite:

"Hey, son, want some chocolate?"

"Sure, Dad. Thanks!"

You can tell instantly what the dried chewy stuff lurking inside the bar is. I felt... betrayed.

According to MSBNC, he's planning to deliver a keynote address and lead a panel discussion on climate change at the 2009 National Summit of the United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney.

Do you know what is really horrible and stupendously sad about the whole thing? He is the MOST reform minded mayor New Orleans has ever had, and cleaned up the most corruption of any city official in it's history.

Can you imagine that! He is literally the best they have ever had.

If we pray hard enough, maybe they will keep him.

If they say so it must be true.

As much as I hate Nagin (and I do, immensely), I like truth more. And the truth is, those buses would have been of no help during Katrina. Supposed Nagin had donated the manpower andtime to move the busses to high ground when New Orleans had literally two days to prepare for the storm. There would still have been the logistics of figuring out what to do with people once they were loaded onto the buses. Then, considering there were 20,000 people at the convention center and 40,000 at the Superdome and many more on rooftops, we have to consider the numbers here. If there are 150 buses in that photos and 100 people were put on each bus, it still would have only evacuated 15,000 people leaving many more stranded. That's IF the logistics of the entire scenario were worked out, stuff like - where to take people, what can they bring along, who stays and who goes.

Like I said, I hate Nagin but I hate people who site those buses as an example of his failure. He has many more serious ones. (new window)

Yep. Buses can only make one trip ever, and then they are done. Single use and disposable.

that still would have been 15,000 more people out of NO.

I guess he made a wrong turn off of Canal and ended up in China

Or how global warming destroyed his town. Oh wait, that is the reason he was on the trip.

Swine flu is nothing, nobody is getting sick. Just an increase in 2,667 new cases from the 4th to the 5th. Pfft.

/none in madagascar, of course

------------------

So now there are multiple stop-and-go bus trips you think need to be instituted by the mayor of a devastated city coordinated FROM a devastated city while the feds sit around and twiddle their thumbs. That's what you are suggesting?

Please, go into greater detail about your plan to move 150K people (many sick and elderly) in 2 days using school buses. Don't leave anything out.

Exactly, and the number of US deaths *only* tripled in the past couple days too. Nothing to worry about.

Well that makes sense then. Because he is an expert on this.

So because something couldn't have been done perfectly IN AN EMERGENCY, it shouldn't be done at all? Your logic stinks.

It is common practice in Japan, Singapore, China and perhaps other Asian countries to quarantine EVERYONE on the whole plane if someone on the plane shows signs of the flu. If the person lives in the country, they will be quarantined to their house and have to wear an GPS ankle bracelet. The foreigners get quarantined to a hotel. Sorry, but there is nothing racist about this act. Perhaps it is excessive, but it is their country so they can do as they please.
