A reader writes to Talking Points Memo:
All the freeways and highways leaving Houston are at a dead standstill as of 11am Thursday. People have been in their vehicles as long as 12 hours without traveling more than 40 miles. Now they are running out of gas and there will soon be another chaotic storm evacuation situation. The local government and the mayor of Houston don't seem to realize that cars need gas and folks need facilities. The city has waited too long to open all freeway lanes to outbound traffic. The truth is, the feds, state, and locals do not know how to evacuate a major metropolitan area. Another catastrophe is only a day away.Pic from Kos:
Surely this time they will get it right... ?

Maybe it's all that time I spent in Atlanta and DC, wasting my life away listening to pathetic liberal pukes on NPR. But anyway, looks like any old rush hour to me--only difference is it's all one way.
