Mayor of New Orleans

I can't believe this moron! The Mayor of N.O. allowed all those School Busses to get inundated by flood waters when they could have been saved and used to get people to safety.

Has anybody here ever tried to get a vehicle running that has been under flood waters? EVERYTHING has to be disassembled & rebuilt--engine, trans, rear-end, wheel bearings etc. etc. It is most times cheaper to get a new vehicle. I don't know exactly how much School Buses cost but I bet it's a bundle--and this fool let HUNDREDS just sit there and be destroyed. And all that screwy Mayor can say is it's the Federal Gov'mint's fault!
