GOPers party as Isaac threatens Gulf Coast with destruction

[buckeye45_73]

You oppose giving the vote to College Students?

No one under 35 should be allowed to vote.

No one over 55 should be allowed to vote.

No one collecting a check from the government should be allowed to vote.[/QUOTE]

I agree with that, it's really a conflict of interest

GOPers party as Isaac threatens Gulf Coast with destruction

Threatens the Gulf Coast with destruction? A little too much melodrama, me thinks. It'll be a CAT 1 Hurricane by the time it hits the coast. Now, if it were a CAT 3 or higher...

Katrina was a Cat 1

 

[buckeye45_73]

acting is what he does best.

governing?

not so much

Acting is what Reagan did...as in acting like a stone cold little ***** after the Marine Barracks were bombed in 83. The **** turned tail and ran. I have never been so embarrassed of a president.

1983 Beirut barracks bombing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What did you expect him to do? Bomb a bunch of innocent people, or just leave the marines there as targets for terrorists? The Navy screwed the pooch on that one by massing all those marines in one building without adequate security to ensure their safety. The sentries didn't even have loaded weapons. Reagan was not responsible for that foul up.

Huggy forgot to tell you the guards were basically unarmed.....because we believe in ***** liberals tactics of trusting crazies and nutjobs and trying to befriend them.......

like this:

1983 Beirut barracks bombings - encyclopedia article - Citizendium

Rules of engagement for the Marines were restrictive; they could not set up what would be considered today a safe perimeter against truck bombs. They carried rifles that had to be loaded before use; there were no heavier weapons that could deflect a truck or destroy its engine. [3]

I think Isaac will end up bringing rain to areas that very much need it and cause little to no damage.

Or drinks on the Love Boat...

Bull, Katrina was a Cat 3 when it hit, it had been up to a Cat 5 at one point.

Winger "whiffed" on that one. You're absolutely correct.

I hope you're right, Tjvh but I've got a bad feeling about New Orleans with this one. They are reporting levees being almost topped now and predicting heavy rain for another 24 hours. That doesn't bode well for the low lying areas of the city. Wish they'd done a mandatory evacuation.

Im shocked. Democrats are trying to use the hurricane for political purposes. No one ever saw this coming! You know, except for all the conservatives predicting that they would attempt to do this.

As Republicans are partying at Tampa strip clubs.......Obama will be providing aid to hurricane victims

Campaigning is providing aid to hurricane victims?



Nice try dummies.

 

[The Infidel]

I thought Florida had a Republican governor.

Yes we do. A Republican governor who has made it virtually impossible to collect unemployment simply so he could claim that unemployment has dropped under his leadership.

And how did he do that?

From the White House pool report, Press Secretary Jay Carney said that President Obama is still monitoring Hurricane Isaac: "Carney offered yet another data point that the president is fully monitoring Hurricane Isaac while also campaigning in the heartland: A readout of a "long" phone call POTUS had on AF1 with a number of senior officials getting a status update on the preparations for an trajectory of Hurricane Isaac. The officials were FEMA director Craig Fugate, DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano, homeland security adviser John Brennan, National Hurricane Center Director Rick Knabb and WH deputy chief of staff Alyssa Mastromonaco. Asked what "long" means, Carney said he couldn't be sure but it was at least 15 minutes."





Oh yeah.... he cares alright.

Really Ravi????

 

[Avatar4321]

Well, that's 15 more minutes than he has spent worrying about jobs in this country.

I have yet to see the bodies floating in floodwaters and people clinging to roofs begging for rescue

That is the situation George Bush ignored

Warrior 101 started a thread about Obama campaigning during the hurricane. Where were you then?

There were seafaring pirates and circa 1950s Cuban-style show girls mixing it up with the masses as strobe lights and disco music pumped up any dampened spirits. Despite Tropical Storm Isaac and Political Hurricane Charlie, thousands of Republicans ventured out on their convention buses to party at Tropicana Field Sunday night.

Give me a break.

As a liberal - let me say this is just BS spin. If I didn't have a 2 month old I'd probably still be getting drunk from a hurricane party, "despite Tropical Storm Isaac". Hurricanes are a way of life down here and when shit has to be cancelled, its cancelled, but when it isn't - like the RNC convention - it goes on. No big deal.
