r2Dtoo Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 [quote name='penguin31' timestamp='1345647212' post='2471954'] Scheduling a major media and political event in an area frequently hit by hurricanes during the peak of hurricane season was probably not the wisest choice on the part of the RNC. [/quote] So I take you believe that the entire Southeast should be boycotted of political conventions because they're might be a hurricane? They're could be a tornado in the Midwest. The West Coast gets earthquakes, and you could potentially die from heatstroke in NYC. Aside from hot air, all those people in attendance also bring in cash to spend on the host city. It's really not fair to boycott an entire region over something so stupid. And a poster here who lives in Florida has already mentioned that they're are many reasons why a hurricane is unlikely to hit Tampa anyway, so I really don't see your the point of your criticism.

Vincent Vega Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 It sure as hell better hit here. I've already made hurricane party plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloysius Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Yes! Hurricane weather is Ron Paul Delegate weather! We'll all stand outside in the midst of the hurricane if we have to to nominate him! (no one would do that for Romney!)... haha, I know that won't happen; I think the RNC might actually have plans to bus us all away if Tampa needs evacuated, I wonder if they'd have us hold the convention somewhere else... anyway I think it's gonna miss Tampa actually... but I'm going either way.

My days are like that enough already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His old scrawny derriere represents my district. He should have been here helping. Right now my city is being threatened by HUD for refusing to rebuild public housing slums that were destroyed by Ike. It would be nice if our representative to the federal government helped us explain to the federal giovernment how their demands to rebuild all the public housing units violates their own stinkin' fair housing act guidlines.

I don't need the executives of Allstate to come look all saddy faced at my destroyed house. Just send a guy to figure out the damages and send me my check. His old scrawny derriere opposes HUD.

PhuturePriest Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) Oh good floopy. First I get likes from USAirways and now Winchester? Before I know it I'll be a commercial airplane pilot that breaks national flight laws in protest to the government.

Adrestia Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Any help would be good. I wanted him here after Ike to HELP, not for a photo shoot. We had debris piling up along state roads for weeks because FEMA contracted with the city to remove debris, but the contract didn't cover state roads. The city was warned not to pick debris along state roads or face federal blah blah blah blah. If our representative to Congress pretended to give half a croutons, things might have gone better. It works for Queen Sheila. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
