Does Mother Nature Hate Democrats?
NBC ^ | Fri, Aug 21, 2009 | Jim Iovino

The Clintons are walking hand in hand in Bermuda this week. The Obamas will be vacationing in Martha's Vineyard starting this weekend.

Sounds like a lot of R&R for Democratic leaders on the East Coast. Unfortunately, Mother Nature has other ideas. Hurricane Bill could cause plenty of havoc for Washington's power couples starting Saturday.

Near-hurricane force winds are expected to ruin the Clintons' romantic walks on the pink sand beaches of an island where Chelsea was conceived 30 years ago. While the brunt of the storm is expected to pass 100 miles west of the Clintons' location, they still could receive 40-foot waves and wind-driven rain.

"They're going to have to hunker down," one meteorologist tracking the hurricane told us, adding that fleeing the island now isn't an option. The Clintons may not mind staying indoors, however, as the resort they're staying at "occasionally hosts sex seminars to improve couples' relationships," according to the New York Daily News. Hubba Bubba. Meanwhile, the Obamas could also feel the power of Hurricane Bill at Martha's Vineyard. The president is supposed to fly in on Sunday to try and relax away the pressures of financial meltdowns and health care screamers with a few rounds of golf. But Sunday is also the day Bill's fury arrives. The eye of the storm is expected to be about 100 miles east of the Vineyard, but as of now Bill is expected to provide the Obamas with tropical storm-force winds of 70 mph to 75 mph with heavy surf and power outages.

Oh, and did we mention that Hurricane Bill is also going to throw some wind and rain toward Hyannis, where the ailing Democratic Sen. Ted Kennedy is residing? Who knew Mother Nature was a Republican?

I did not need to know that.

Besides that, what was Web Hubbell doing there?

Yes. Nature is outside. Outside is real. Like in reality.

Okay, this just made me laugh out loud. It is funny on so many levels. One is Too Much Information.

My goodness, a new detail, after all these years.

My question is, where was Bill, while ol' Webb 'n Hill were pulling the turkey baster routine, and why on earth would they do it on a beach, lol?

Glad to hear how worried Democrats are about this hurricane.

These same Democrats were happy almost exactly one year ago, as Hurricane Gustav bore down on the Gulf Coast at the same time the Republican convention was happening. They saw that timing as good for their cause.

For Democrats/liberals/radicals, political tactics and strategies override everything.

Remember how Democrats said “we won’t be swift boated again” and all that stuff? I want Republicans to say “we won’t be Katrinad again”, after the liberals successfully politicized Hurricane Katrina. Everything about the relief and recovery efforts that went bad in Katrina was blamed on Bush.

The fact that the mayor of New Orleans and governor of Louisiana were both good Democrats was lost in the shuffle as all the fallout from Katrina was blamed on Bush and evil Republicans.
