I doubt they would have been pulled over. Heck, I would commandeer a school bus and load my neighbors up too.

In fact, the governor both called upon the National Guard and requested $9 million in federal assistance for shelters and rescue operations 2 days before Katrina reached NO. She was assured that she'd get both and that FEMA would be ready to deploy before the hurricane hit. She was a fool to rely upon FEMA. She also misused the National Guard by sending about half of them after looters instead of focusing on emergency relief. But a hell of a lot of blame lies with FEMA and the slow response by other federal agencies. Just to add insult to injury came an onslaught of verbal diarrhea by Bush and his first lady. This was every bit as much Bush's blunder as governor Blanco's.

"How can 2,000,000 BLACKS get into Washington, DC in 1 day in sub zero temps when 200,000 couldn't get out of New Orleans in 85 degree temps with four days notice?"
This is a racist joke. I am appalled that anyone would defend it.

Okay,
2,000,000 WHITES get into Washington, DC in 1 day in sub zero temps when 200,000 couldn't get out of New Orleans in 85 degree temps with four days notice. This is a racist joke. I'm appalled that anyone would defend it.
