HOUSTON


Hundreds of thousands of people were frantically trying to escape the nation's fourth-largest city Thursday as Hurricane Rita approached the upper Texas coast. But interstates were at a standstill for up to 100 miles and gas shortages were already being reported.

Absolutely ridiculous for half the highway to be stopped nearly 100 miles with traffic. Meanwhile, the other side has little or no traffic. Why doesnt some useless politician or highway patrol director divert traffic to other side of highway?

True.

There are a majority of white folks in Houston so the relief operation will be much quicker this time.
