Republican Convention Could Be Shut Down Due To Hurricane

Meteorologists and Republican National Convention planners grew more concerned Wednesday about the potential for Tropical Storm Isaac to develop into a hurricane aimed squarely at Tampa, Fla., the host city of the GOP convention beginning Monday.

In response to the increasingly dire reports, Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn said safety concerns would trump politics, even if that might mean shutting down the four-day convention.

"If we had to make that decision to cancel or to postpone or move the convention, we will do that knowing full well that my obligation and the city’s obligation is to move people out of harm's way. The politics will take care of itself," Buckhorn said Wednesday morning on CNN's "Starting Point" with Soledad O'Brien.

A canceled postponed or hastily moved convention would be a major setback for the GOP presidential ticket. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan could use a flawless convention to help them recover from a difficult week that began with last Sunday's comments by Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) about "legitimate rape" and pregnancy.

So now they want to get all science-y instead of just having faith that it'll be ok. But let that same science guy from NOAA mention rapid global climate change and he's cuckoo.

What a bunch of lily livered chicken shits, to let a little rain get in their way. They should be forced to carry out the convention.

Appropriate.

Theirs was a legitimate rape of America.

5. If you forcibly attempt to hold your unwanted convention in Tampa...

8. +100!

[onethatcares]

6. that would be

$50,000,000.00 of tax payer dollars flushed down the drain. Along with all the neato hippie head busting equipment, the super riot training, the 48 police horses with nothing to do, the drones and cameras that
are ready for operation and the nude bars will not make a bazzillion either.


they better get crackin or it's gonna be too late.
