Osteen rep lying furiously on CNN -- claiming all that water "drained away" since MONDAY and [View all]

[anneboleyn]

that the church "always" had its doors open and that they were "sheltering" people the whole time. Erin Burnett asked how many people were there during and immediately after the storm, and Osteen's rep was talking as quickly as possible and not answering questions. He then said there were maybe ten people there sheltering during the storm and that "some" of them were maintenance workers there to watch the building.

Now he is claiming they have "busloads" of people there (no photos of the people supposedly there now) -- then Erin asked how many, again -- and he replied two or three busloads (and then more blathering about not being designated a "shelter" by the government, etc etc).

The "lying" bit in the title of my post is my feeling about this -- their story is NOT believable.

Osteen couldn't even be bothered to phone in himself? The answers should be very easy if they are true...
