In an effort to save the healthcare bill, Hawaii arranged to have an earthquake. No other details available.
LOL I was hoping that sucker fell out of the vault.
Too good.
Nothing to report yet.
Truth be known this is another surce of global warming!
Bears repeating. We can’t afford (literally) to let them tire us out. Keep up the pressure on your representatives - contact them today & tomorrow. Send them an email if you can’t get through on the phone. Politely remind them that their jobs are in jeopardy if they vote for this bill.
I’m trying to understand what this is about? Did BO say this? Please explain. THANKS!
Pathological liar and a communist to boot!!!!
I heard him say this and couldn’t believe it!
The question is - has Hawaii gotten a special deal - a la the Louisiana Purchase because of some double secret earthquake?
Would you mind telling us what he actually said? Maybe a link to someplace we can read about it?
bump
What did you hear him say?
Ya know how peeps will post ‘LOL’ or I spritzed Diet Pepsi...well...I actually did.
Well done.
“It was a 57 Richter scale earthquake, that’s 3000% bigger than Chile.”
Just a quibble. But a 57 Richter would be a LOT more than 3000% bigger than Chile. The Richter scale is logarithmic.
OBAMA: That also — I'm giving you an example of one that I consider important. It also affects Hawaii, which went through an earthquake. So that's not just a Louisiana provision. That is a provision that affects every state that is going through a natural catastrophe.
I think the idiot was talking about the news coverage of the beach watch for a tsunamii from the Chili quake...the wave never arrived."

He told Bret Baier that some special provisions would be left in the healthcare bill, particularly for states that had suffered natural disasters. He specifically pointed out Louisiana’s problems as a result of Hurricane Katrina and Hawaii with their earthquake.
I heard that too- cracked me up.
Obambi just said this on national TV from the oval office.
OBAMA: ....Something that was called a special deal was for Louisiana. It was said that there were billions — millions of dollars going to Louisiana, this was a special deal. Well, in fact, that provision, which I think should remain in, said that if a state has been affected by a natural catastrophe, that has created a special health care emergency in that state, they should get help. Louisiana, obviously, went through Katrina, and they're still trying to deal with the enormous challenges that were faced because of that.
