I have long felt that we do not understand anything having to do with Hurricanes. We can't predict their paths accurately, their starts and stops and turns. For that matter we can't even figure out when we should expect a good or bad hurricane season.
What qualifies as a good or a bad season? For the guys in the Miami Hurricane center, a good season is one where we have lots of named storms wreaking havoc all over the place, thus allowing Jim Cantori to be beamed at us from various maligned parts of the globe.
That is a bad season if only 1 of said named storms hits and leaves you homeless, without food and water, or worse yet, without cable TV during football season.
Now, a bad season to the Hurricane guys is what we have now (as I speak). Trying to find something to talk about, and therefore to justify their salaries. The other day on the Weather Channel, I saw that they are now trying to replay footage of past hurricanes, just to keep us in the mood and ever alert for an easterly breeze from the African coast - regardless of spin, speed, or direction.
Hurricanes like global warming and every other thing imaginable that is bad , have been heaped on Bush's fault list by the liberal media and the left wing politico's. What I truly cannot understand is how we, as sane Americans, can stand idly by and watch a decent, moral man be trashed by a bunch of lousy media hurricane hunters. They can't figure those water cyclones out, how can we expect them to discern fair or unbiased info to us about anything else. Tell the Democratic liberal pinko media to focus on the African coastal Atlantic waters in search of that massive storm instead of trashing everything this president tries to do - Right or wrong at least he is trying something. By the way they can always move to Europe where they are safe from these deadly events, and the next dreaded named storm George Bush.

(21 August 2006) What a difference a year makes. After the record-breaking 2005 Atlantic hurricane season, the 2006 season is now below normal (on par with Al Gore's IQ). Part of the reason for the slow season is that tropical western Atlantic sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are running about normal, if not slightly below normal.
The hopes and dreams of U.S. coastal devastation longed for by Bush-loathing environmentalists seems to have been erased faster than Ned Lamont's political career.
The cooler SSTs in the Atlantic are not an isolated anomaly. In a research paper being published next month in Geophysical Research Letters, scientists will show that between 2003 and 2005, globally averaged temperatures in the upper ocean cooled rather dramatically, effectively erasing 20% of the warming that occurred over the previous 48 years.
10 years worth of Republican Party induced global warming was erased in just the last 2 years. It's amazing what global industrialization and unfettered capitalism can achieve to spite the best efforts of backwards, dooms-day miscreants like Al Gore.
Global Warming? The slow hurricane season and the cooling sea surface temperatures might be somewhat surprising to the public (only to the liberal public, conservatives know better). Media reports over the last year have suggested that, since global warming will only get worse, and last year's hurricane activity was supposedly due to global warming, this season might well be as bad as last season. But it appears that Mother Nature might have other plans.
How depressing do you suppose this news is to Al Gore? His whole reason for living just disappeared faster than a bowl of Percocets at Farrah Fawcett's house. (I stole that)
