A catastrophe is a terrible thing to squander.

It’s expected to be a Cat 1 at best.

For people there, that is just a heavy thunderstorm. I wouldnt be shocked if you see video of people walking by the shore just to see it.

I’m sure they will survive without that idiot’s “concern”.

Wow- great piece, but as an Orlando area resident I’m surprised the Sentinel published it.

While no one wishes for Isaac to follow the map track of Katrina,


Liberals do.

How ironic will it be if Obama benefits from the fact that a COMPETENT Republican governor is in charge where it really matters...

Even if Isaac turns out to be nothing but a beneficial rain for the drought-plagued Mississippi, Obama has already dispatched FEMA to hand out free VISA cards in New Orleans. The sales of flat screen TVs will go up, and everyone will be happy.

Of course, the msm will contrast Obama’s great leadership with Pres. Bush, who killed Blacks during Katrina.

the Obama campaign is waiting to unleash the fury of its spin on the storm with a maximum of political effects.

This is really pathetic. The initial failure was at the local level. Plus the fact that the woman governor who was supposed to be in charge CRIED during the crisis. Jindal will show them how it's done, just as he did during the BP spill.

They forget that this time at least Louisiana has a competent Governor and we will just wait to see the outcome if for some reason Federal help is not needed and if it is, in a very limited role.

This wishing for catastrophe for political gain will come back to bite them in the a$$ as well.
