Jehovah Might Blow You Ovah!

So, it was just a little amusing when the nuttiest elements of the religious right declared that God had sent us fetus-shaped hurricanes to convey His displeasure with all our abortions and hedonism and intercourse during menstruation. But it's plain freaky to see an actual elected official like Ray Nagin declare that hurricanes are evidence that God is mad at the U.S. in general over Iraq and the black community in particular for not "taking care" of each other. Should we just forget about those silly levees and offer some livestock in sacrifice?
