Take shelter, Chicago!
Prayers for all!!!
Prayers for those in the path. How close to Tinley park where Rev. Wright’s mansion is?
A HUGE tornado entering S. Chicago 'burbs, just a year or so ago after a HUGE tornado (and his wife and preacher) left Chicago threatening HUGE destruction all over every City and State of this great Nation.
Stuck this in “Breaking” for the ChiTown FReepers.
If it hits Rev. Wright’s home, will Sharon Stone be available to make her standard, “Karma comes back to bite ya!” comment?
*SMIRK*
He’s Wright in the path the tornado is on a path heading NE between Joliet and Kankakee.
From Google Earth this looks like the suburbs of Chicago.
Tinley Park is not in the path of this Tornado.
