    According to local media in Austin, security was in the area but relaxed since the Gov. was not living there. There were security cameras also in use.

    The firefighters did an outstanding job in fighting the fire, using resources to keep themselves safe first.

    Also, since this building was undergoing extensive interior renovations, all of the furnishings are in storage.

    So in other words ” the operation was a success but the patient died”.

    well, maybe not dead, but in ICU for burn recovery unit.

    as far as security? i understand that they were with the gov and the ms at the alternate site. but since this place is so old, at least the furnishings were elsewhere. is it possible they were ahead of schedule and they wanted a little bit of job security? um…um…

    there should have been some kind of alert, because a fire from underneath the front steps does not spread quickly. how much damage was done totally? inside and outside?

    as always, there has to be a fool who thinks that busch does everything. more than likely he was fishing with his dad in MAINE. afterall, he just finished marrying his daughter.

    come now! next thing you’ll say that NIXON did it. get over the cookie jar aspect of everything.
