It is such an embarrassment to have this joke in the White House.
Ike is the only hurricane that I remember coming through this part of Texas in the six years I've lived here. Perhaps some storm that fell apart, but kept the initial name? Dunno.
Do you realize that Irene was a name previously used in 2005.
You sure about that? I know that the alphabet is cycled through from front to back with male and female names, and then they begin again at A, but use different names starting with the same letter for new storms. Takes a very long time for a name to be reused.
...I see they have the Parteikanzlei assembled. Upppp, there she is, Franz Napolitano, Sturmabteilung head...
It’s listed under “Politics,” and not actual news. That’s good.
B.O., (and I do mean b.o.), is the new Alexander Haig.
“I’M IN CHARGE HERE.” Come to think of it, he’s the first prez to take charge of a hurricane.
And thank G-d.
Barack Hurricane killer Obama.
I thought TOTUS told him when to speak and what to say...lol. Perhaps TOTUS wants him to know when to shut up.
Yep:

Just a point of interest. And if they retire “Irene” after this storm we will all know that the shark has officially been jumped!!
Revelation 13:3
One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.
Sometimes you just have to wonder...
They gave him a pink microphone?
He was the perfect candidate for the Marxists, but I think he has helped a lot of people to stop caving to the leftist racists.
I wish I could believe that. I do hope you are right though.
Well, that's just weird. Seems there are enough female names starting with the letter I, that they wouldn't have to re-use the name, Irene, so soon.
Just off the top of my head I can think of Inez, Ingrid, Isabel, and India.
EPIC FAIL
There’s actually a set list of names that are recycled, apparently every 6 years, and names are only retired if they are catastrophic storms.
Note the next name on the list is Jose, a storm which is spinning aimlessly out to sea in the mid-Atlantic.
Let’s pray that we have no retired names from this year.
Here’s this year’s list:
Arlene
Bret
Cindy
Don
Emily
Franklin
Gert
Harvey
Irene
Jose
Katia
Lee
Maria
Nate
Ophelia
Philippe
Rina
Sean
Tammy
Vince
Whitney
Ping to #58.
Now he’s a Weather Man? Next we’ll hear that he shot an 18 in 18 holes of golf like his friend the “Dear Leader”.
Amen to that, but we all know it's going to happen sooner or later.
I remember during Katrina, that Joe Bastardi (weatherman extraordinaire) commenting that hurricane activity goes in 30 year cycles, and that the Gulf Coast built up during the more quiet portion of that cycle. According to him, we're moving back into the more active side of the cycle.
Even stupid people get tired of being treated as though they’re stupid...
