Larry King : "Why didn't they evacuate."

[RBHam]

And while he makes the guests cry, he doesn't even bat an eye.

What a complete tool of the Neo-Cons he has turned out to be.

[RBHam]

1. Rove's talking point: Blame the victims...

Those damn babies had days to evacuate. They get what's comin' to 'em.

[Faygo Kid]

2. Not complete. Only pathetic. And clueless.

He intellectually sympathizes. Has no clue in his gut.

[Inspired]

3. He said sometimes there's a silver lining!

Fuck for brains.

[kittenpants]

14. yeah, I was waiting for him to follow up w/ the actual silver lining...

but he had nothing while the poor lady was crying and said, "I hope so."

[tuvor]

4. He's flaccid.

I remember his radio show a million years ago, and how he was a lot more inquisitive and INTERESTED.

[seabeyond]

5. that was disgusting wasnt it. he said it mean, was ugly n/t

[lolamio]

6. I should know better than to watch his show.

Silver lining, my foot. Dope.

[Rude Horner]

9. Yeah, that "silver lining" comment

made me scream at my tv. What a fuck knob. Where the fuck is the silver lining for these people?

[WiseButAngrySara]

13. I've been screaming at my TV for days now...n/t

[kittenpants]

16. yeah, he just asked another reporter on the scene if there was

any optimism yet! What the FUCK is there to be optimistic about. He's so clueless.

[Michydem]

7. Yeah "hang tough" that is nice...ugghhh sickening..he is horriblent

[bluestateguy]

8. Hang in there Larry, you can go back to Natalie Holloway next week

Once they scoop all the dead bodies out of New Orleans and Biloxi.

What a vapid old fart.

[Bluebear]

11. Vapid old fart covers it. nt

[SmokingJacket]

10. His question has an easy answer, I hope someone gave it to him.

No money, no car, and everyone they know lives right there in New Orleans. Just imagine that for a minute, Mr. King. You have some food in your house or apartment, you feel safe there -- maybe you're in a wheelchair, or have asthma and don't want to hike along a highway hitching a ride.

It's not like the goverment had greyhound buses lined up to take people to a Red Cross shelter, like they would in a civilized country. LIKE FRICKING CHINA!

[WiseButAngrySara]

12. He should evacuate. Refugee style! .......n/t

[Chicago Democrat]

15. FU King

FU

[T Roosevelt]

17. He's an ass, just like Michael Brown

This from a 2002 study by Louisiana State University (being in the industry, I know they know what they're talking about):

"The highways are exposed to the effects of hurricane winds and floods, and must be shut down to traffic many hours before a hurricane actually reaches the vicinity of the city. It is estimated that about two hundred thousand people living in the city do not have automobiles or access to an automobile. Approximately 20,000 people have special needs and cannot be easily moved. Finally, there are several thousand more people that will choose not to evacuate because of difficulty of actually evacuating and of finding suitable shelters (Suhayda, Aravamuthan, & Korevec, 2001)."

Yeah, I fucking wonder why they didn't evacuate.

[RBHam]

18. Kick

Larry King showed his true colors tonight. He was mad - mad that his GOOD FRIEND Michael Chertoff was in hot water.
