Smart ploy for a guy way in over his head.

In Southern California we have winds up to 70 miles per hour numerous times per year. They’re called Santa Ana winds. Those winds may hit 80mph on occasion. Gusts may go higher.

Got 'em right now, and my roof isn't handling it well. Happens every year; it's not news. High winds with hurricanes or non-hurricanes happen every year too, and it's not news just because it's on the East coast.

However, if you're the news media and you're trying to hide something else, to divert attention, a "good blow" might be in order.

Who is blowing whom, however, is in question.

I’m not optimistic about impeachment, but if facts continue to leak out and the relatives of those slaughtered continue to demand explanation, who knows? Even some of the media is beginning to tire of him. There is no statute of limitations on TREASON.

Yes, we can only try.

Even if no impeachment/treason charge brought forward, enough information ousted will make him a plague.

OBAMA IS A COWARD !

I keep seeing this over and over on FR threads. I don't understand it at all. It takes absolutely no bravery on his part to order a rescue. ZERO!!

This guy is a FKn TRAITOR! Plain and simple.

;^) Agreed.

The one thing I didn’t think to address was storm surge. And storm surge could be a very big problem in areas that are only a few feet above sea level.

When you start getting into highly populated areas, there are many places that could be in jeopardy due to storm surge.

Now I’m not sure what sort of storm surge you get from a 70 to 80 MPH hurricane, but it may be significant enough to cause serious trouble.

Ten feet of surge could enough to cause some devastating damage to parts of New York or New Jersey. I don’t know the area south of there well enough to comment, but I’m certain there would be trouble down there too. Even Washington, D. C. might see problems.

I agree with you,,, it’s worse than just being a coward, but we got to start from somewhere.

A cancer is growing on the presidency.

That was true in Nixon and Dean's day. Today what is true is that the presidency is the cancer.
