Actual NBC headline today: 'Does Mother Nature Hate Democrats?'
Check out this piece of utter tripe currently running on the NBC Bay Area site (not some podunk affiliate, an actual NBC O&O):
http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/politics/Does-Mother-Nature-Hate-Democrats-53944682.html
The Clintons are walking hand in hand in Bermuda this week. The Obamas will be vacationing in Martha's Vineyard starting this weekend.

Sounds like a lot of R&R for Democratic leaders on the East Coast. Unfortunately, Mother Nature has other ideas.

... The Clintons may not mind staying indoors, however, as the resort they're staying at "occasionally hosts sex seminars to improve couples' relationships," according to the New York Daily News.

Hubba Bubba.

... Oh, and did we mention that Hurricane Bill is also going to throw some wind and rain toward Hyannis, where the ailing Democratic Sen. Ted Kennedy is residing?

Who knew Mother Nature was a Republican?

1. Wasn't the joke throughout the 2008 campaign how Obama always had perfect weather?
I even remember on election night, with a live shot of Grant Park and that goober face at FOX News saying Obama was 'blessed' with good weather again...

:eyes:

2. martha's vineyards has some incredible point breaks
i suggest the obamas make the best of it and go surfing. i have no idea if he surfs or not. but if you are from hawaii and you don't surf... there's something wrong.

i recommend on the vineyard's classic righthand point breaks to hold the hurricane swell

4. Pfffft... everyone knows Obama isn't Hawaiian.
He's from Kenya!

:tinfoilhat:

But seriously folks... I think I DID read in one of his books that he was never much into surfing.

3. That reminds me of the FOX NEWS spoof on the Simpsons
"Do Democrats Cause Cancer?"

5. Why do Republicans hate the weather?
Any good Democrat will tell you that our party stands fully behind Mother Nature being able to do her thing. We are for the life sustaining water brought forth by the clouds. We are a big tent and accept all forms of weather. We are not solely the party of the sunny day. We understand the big picture.

The author of the NBC snippet is undoubtedly an idiot!

6. Is Mother Nature a birther?
Would she agree to run on a Palin/Nature ticket?

;-)

7. Rain is not an "enemy"
Without rain we die.. It's how we get our water and how we get our food..

such ignorance.

I guess that the righties don't know that once the sahara desert was a lush green place..until it stopped raining there..
