Soon to be Hurricane Rita headed for Crawford, TX
From latest NOAA forecast, looks like a cosmic slap in the face for Chimpy:

1. I hate to bust your bubble...

but Crawford is hundreds of miles inland. It's west of Waco for chrissake.

6. I know. I just like the symbolism.

2. If only we could convince Rita to hop over Galeston and Houston,
I'd be all over it hitting Chimpy's farm. As it stands, however, given hurricanes' general pig-headed natures, I'm sure if Rita's tracking for Crawford, it's tracking for Houston. And I really wouldn't wish that on the Katrina survivors.

3. They've been through enough. Maybe, and nature is full of
surprises, it'll pull a pool hall trick and still go way inland and only get Bush. That'd bring us some real relief from his bullshit.

4. What we need is a lighting storm
directly over 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue that lasts for 5 days. One so drastic you couldn't leave the building or have anyone get in. That way, no one gets physically hurt, and the property my taxes pay to maintain doesn't get damaged, but Bush sure would get a taste of what it was like for those refugees.




Naw. On reconsideration, he'd no doubt just spend those 5 days in some bomb shelter, drinking champagne bought with my parent's tax dollars. :banghead:

5. I'd love to see some sort of weather haunt his ass. He has
no remorse for the people he allowed to die by sending no help. Something would help. Anything that'd make him start believing in the truth: global warming.

7. Don't tornadoes often occur when hurricanes move inland?
Time for another Bush vacation, perhaps?
