Gustav, Katrina, God & the GOP

avatar

Following the right-wingers belief that God uses nature to punish the wicked & the sinners, I wonder why none have made the obvious connection that these hurricanes are meant to be a sign from The Almighty that the GOP is wicked and must be punished?

Katrina wasn't meant to be a punishment for the Gay Pride Parade, that was coincidental. It was meant to provide a large stage for the GOP to fail in a large way. Gustav coming right as their convention is to begin is just a reminder of this, and a thumb in their eye.

I don't really believe this because I'm an atheist and believe the weather can be explained most truthfully and effectively through science.  But since the religious right does believe, it's curious why they're silent on it. Even Karl Rove seems to be wise to it. I just don't get it.
