A political reminder from Mother Nature
The Republican Convention is scheduled to start on Monday. You know, the Republicans who couldn't be bothered to take care of New Orleans before, during or after Hurricane Katrina. Well, Mother Nature is planning a little reminder of that fact: the current projected track of Tropical Storm Gustav (which is expected to be Hurricane Gustav by Monday) http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at2+shtml/143014.shtml?5day#contents is pointed right at New Orleans.
Talk about ironic.

Ironic, indeed.
But the last thing New Orleans needs is another hurricane.

I was about to post about this until I noticed you already did :-)
Pretty crazy though. I wonder how the media will cover this and how the GOP will react (and if Bush learned from his mistakes with Katrina).

Oh yes, let us hope many people die so the Republicans look really bad.

Actually, a lot of people already DID die during Katrina and the Republicans looked bad because they were ineffectual and un-caring. Pointing out the irony of the current situation does not indicate a desire for it to happen. But then I'm sure you actually know that.
