Wackydoodle sez, "He got natchurl rhythm too!"
Our modern day pharaoh is nowhere near the devastated town of Joplin, MO where residents dig into the rubble of their homes and businesses looking for survivors and precious possessions. At least one hundred twenty five Americans lost their lives to a monster F5 tornado (officially described as "incredible") that racked the city of 50,000 on Sunday. Two hundred thirty-two are listed as missing. It was the eighth deadliest tornado on record in an age of doppler radar and televised warnings. No one expects Obamatron to pick up a shovel, but his beleaguered countrymen must be gritting their teeth while he is feted by a monarchy their ancestors died to overcome. Remember the Charlatan and his recalcitrant visit to a hurricane devastated New Orleans? Deja vu is in the house.
