(Washington) -- U.S. Senator Rick Santorum is suggesting that early mistakes in predicting the path of Hurricane Katrina may be a symptom of lost focus at the National Weather Service. Santorum, who introduced legislation earlier this year to curb the output of government weather forecasters, says tracking life-threatening weather must be central to what the agency is doing. 00149_ric09d.mp3 Asked about Katrina by WITF, Santorum described weather service warnings for Florida, where the storm first made landfall, as not sufficient." Santorums bill instructs the government to abandon weather prediction and data reporting efforts that duplicate private-sector activity. He came under fire when it was revealed that the head of State College-based AccuWeather, which would benefit, has given his campaigns thousands of dollars.
>>So stick troll up your a## jerkoffs......<<
And he has such a sweet way of putting things.
Disagree. Were I in PA and had a choice to vote for Spector against the late, pro life Democrat Bob Casey, guess what?
(Darksheare, feelin' frisky today?)
rodmuncher ... do you think this poster might be Barney Frank?
I read these posts all the time, this is the first one I've posted myself and just signed up. I felt the need for people to know what a fellow republican is doing to bring down our party. That's all, give me grief, I'm going home now for a beer. See ya!!
Man.....you are really dense. His screen name says it all. Get a clue.
Sorry, I don't trust a Dem to stay prolife.
I would have been staying home.
I asked him to get back and apologize for potty mouth - I gotta get going for shelter work.
I fully agree. I was already riled up at him over his bill that he is pushing to leave dissemination of weather information to the public up to private firms. Now this loser claims that the NHC did an insufficient job when it comes to Katrina. The three day forecast track for Katrina was dead on. Mayfield calls the governor and the mayor up at their homes and begs them to evacutate N.O. WTF Santorum?
Awfully funny that AccuWeather has bottled up a lot of their stuff on their "AccuWeather Professional" (pay) site. Wonder if they had a heads up on this bill?
why do i beleve you will never be seen again
Dude, you are fixin to regret the jerkoff thing. But this thread is gonna be GREAT now!
Oh, welcome to FR. Come on, I rarely post any threads since I'm sure I will get called on the carpet for posting something that's already been posted. But, there really are some very nice people here, some very smart people here, and then, alot of people like me (and probably like you). Regular people. :)

Reason #53 why I will never give another dime to the RNC.
Where are them kitties???

Sorry, I get carried away. jerkoffs was uncalled for.
See ya'll, he's nice. I have to say it can be terribly intimidating when the entire FR seems to be coming down on your head. And, that being said, I should go make dinner before anyone yells and me and hurts my feelings!
:)
