Was Hurricane Sandy an Obama plot to swing election?

The entire east coast is devastated just before the election, those people need government help. What better government champion than the democrat in charge and what a great counter point to the Katrina mismanagement the week before election day!

*Yeah this OP is stupid, but is still on par with most of whats here already.

You’re looking at it backwards. Can I quote myself from the hurricane thread yesterday?

In an incident that experts are calling “bizarre and inexplicable”, Rep. Bachmann (R-Batshit) was the victim of a ballistic housing impact. Oddly, her shoes are reported to be missing…

Is it just me, or have you been getting consequently funnier over the last year and a half?

Great minds think alike. Twisted minds as well, it would seem.

Let me check my records. He was 0% funny in 4/11. Still 0% funny in 10/12. I think it’s just you.

Ah well, I’m happy for it. At the time I could do with a laugh, which I got.

…and so the Universe remains cold and indifferent…

Nah. It was the wrath of God sent to punish us for voting for him and destroy him, but his Anti-Christ powers were sufficient to keep it from doing that much damage. Much Latin chanting was involved.

The OP is not alone. Dammit, they figured out Obama’s plan!

I think this whole ‘Sandy’ thing was set-up to disgrace the climate change deniers, along with the other major storms the US seems to be enjoying every 6 months.

Husband just said, “If he has that much power, he deserves to be president”.

Good point. You don’t want to mess around with someone who can control the weather like that.

More seriously, here’s CNN.com on the likely impact of Sandy on the election: http://www.cnn.com/2012/10/31/politics/sandy-voting-election-day/index.html?hpt=hp_t2

But why flatten some solidly-blue states? Why not Texas? Or Arizona. Specially Arizona.

If a hurricane flattens Arizona we will know for sure that we better not fuck with Obama. :eek:

I just assumed it was part of his master plan to herd everyone into those FEMA death camps once the hurricane destroys all their houses.

Mysterious ways.
Obviously.
:smiley:

Don’t forget that Obama caused the hurricane that hit during the Republican convention.

Moved to MPSIMS from Elections.

I was thinking that if Christie had run and NJ got clobbered a week before the election, that would probably have given him a bunch of sympathy votes.

But must they HAARP on it?!
