Hurricane Ivan
Posted by Tory, September 27, 2004 on 8:00 pm | In Amusements |Would you think I was crazy if I couldn’t help wondering whether the Bush evil empire was behind the string of hurricanes in Florida? That maybe they used cloud seeding to victimize Florida and make them grateful to Bush for federal disaster relief? It’s a lot more sophisticated than booting all the Michael Johnsons and Lawrence Williamses from the voter rolls.
I`m 85% joking here, but take a look at the hurricane map for 2004 so far (courtesy Weather Underground):
Wow, those paths are really similar. I put in Ivan as an inset, because when I tried to paste the path of Ivan into the main map *it almost exactly duplicated the path of Charley.* Eeeeee.
Let’s compare these paths to the map in 2003:
Wow. That, um, looks really different. No two storms took the same path at all. But let’s look at 2002 just for fun:
Hm — not *quite* as random. Maybe this was a test year? Conspiracies!!!1
No, we don’t have the technology yet. But we like the way you think, kid. Call us in 2008.
Heh heh heh — the Bush Administration Neck Fat Brigade. Get back to me on the discipline and accountability issue when you can climb a flight of stairs without sparking a coronary. I think we`d all be better off if these dudes did a little less bombing and a little more jogging. Owowow I am bitchy!

The hurricanes were a clue, but it wasn`t until California got hit by a massive quake (”massive” being judged by the volume of the “Holy GOD!” I got out of my best friend when I told him — he`s from California) that I knew God was on Bush`s side. Damn God. Givin` the Republican governors all the good photo-ops… Who needs ya anyway?

I sense something is afoot. I wouldn`t put anything past these guys. How else do you run up those multi-billion-dollar deficits? Poker tournaments?

It`s also interesting to note that a major contributer to Gov. Jeb Bush`s campaign is a company that makes plywood. What do people put all over their houses when a hurricane comes? Plywood! More hurricanes = better plywood sales = more money for Bush. Hmm. . .

For a while, the only thing I respected about Bush was that he stayed in shape. I got a little put out when people criticized him for being on the treadmill when this or that important thing went down. (Please! He was on the treadmil in the White House — not backpacking in Timbuktu! Are you honestly telling me his staff can`t find the room with the treadmill in it??) Now, though… Now I wish he`d stop with the fitness thing, because I`ve so had it with him that I RESENT that there`s still one thing that I have to respect him for…

You are the second person in the last 24 hours in my life to show me those maps from Weather Underground and talk about the slight chance of blaming the hurricanes on George Bush. This is weird.
