Bad storm. Terrific people.

Canada Free Press

By Herman Cain (Bio and Archives)  Thursday, January 30, 2014 

The whole country is talking about the Atlanta Ice Down, and I know you’ve all heard the stories of people being stuck in traffic for 11 hours. The way the story is being told, it must sound like those of us in the Southeast have no idea what to do when a few snowflakes start coming down.

The problem was not that two or three inches of snow fell. Believe it or not, southerners can handle driving in two or three inches of snow. The problem was that, as the snow fell, it was melting upon hitting the ground and then freezing. Throughout the day, that was turning road surfaces into ice rinks.But the main national stories didn’t tell the whole story about what happened.

Now this is where some better preparation on the part of state and local officials would have helped. During yesterday’s press conference, the director of the Georgia Emergency Management Agency declared to the press that things hadn’t gotten all that bad by 2 p.m. A reporter turned to Gov. Nathan Deal and asked him if he agreed with that. He said emphatically that he did not.

At the same time, Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed acknowledged he made a mistake by not calling for staggering the times when people would leave – resulting in a mass exodus right around the time when things were getting to their worst point. Give Reed credit for manning up. At least he didn’t blame a YouTube video!
