So the apocalyptic Hurricane Isaac is heading for the RNC Convention in Tampa early next week.

Wasn't there a delay in, or mid-way though, the 2008 RNC Convention because of Hurricane Gustav?

Or, is it Hurricane Todd (Akins) that will cause a significant change of events for the RNC-ers?

There's "divine intervention" for all those holy rollers out there! Fitting, huh? ;-) LOL

News to the wise, Mobile, AL is not Tampa, FL.

At most this is projected to be a Category 1 hurricane when it hits the mainland (as I recall it is barely a tropical storm right now). I think the 24/7 news commentators have made a mouse into a lion in order to pump their viewership. Not like this would be the first time that happened.

It probably will wreck havoc with the airline schedules though, regardless of where landfall is.

Hope it hits them as a Cat 5, that would be too funny, as long as no one truly innocent dies.

Yeah, it's so shocking and surprising to have a storm go through that area around this time of year. It can be nothing else but divine intervention. Idiots.

Do you really not see the humor in this?

The right constantly cites "divine intervention", even has prayer rallies seeking it sometimes. The left doesn't do this kind of thing.

It is simply a joke to toss one back. Go ahead and laugh.

I might, just might believe in a god if a tornado came down on them during the convention due to this hurricane.

This was divine intervention. You know what divine intervention is?

I think so, that means that God came down from heaven and stopped the bullets?

That's right, that's exactly what it means. God came down from heaven and stopped these m***erf***in bullets.

It's that liberal climate change thing.
