When Mother Nature demonstrates her extraordinary power, I always hope that people will draw a lesson from it, but they never seem to. Hurricane Sandy is just the latest example of the futility and foolishness of thinking that humans can do anything about a hurricane or similar demonstration of who is really in charge. It is the planet. Not us.

But, but, they said on MSNBC that this “super storm” was caused by people who drive SUVs.

I’m pretty sure this is Bush’s fault.

Contrary to Al Gore and his followers, you can’t control Mother Nature. You can prepare for emegency services to recover from the worst that Mother Nature dishes out.

the lesson is if you keep building on the shore, you’ll eventually get flooded and flooded badly...

It always amazes me the hype the left can contrive. They would have you believe that hurricanes did not exist prior to the industrial revolution and if we would just do exactly as they say we will never suffer another one.

The really scary thing is that so very many Americans are so ignorant of either weather or history they believe them.

People are “not in charge” of the planet or the weather, but we are in charge of ourselves.

The northeast was simply not prepared for what would be a mild 30 hour storm in Florida and then it would be over with.

Brooklyn, for example, is going to have to bring some of those shanties up to code.

Learn how to excerpt, by the way.

If it is a message, and it is, it has nothing to do with SUVs.

I think the president is going to issue a statement about how it’s the fault of someone how videotaped the storm...
