Alarmism on Exceptional Weather Upheavals may affect US Election turnout + Result ?!

Don't like these Alarmist reports on Exceptional Weather Perturbations in Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, etc :

=> It's certainly due to OBSTRUCT VOTERS for "Super Tuesday"'s US Presidential Election's most important day, targetting particularly 2 States (Mo + TN) where Huckabee's initial lead depends on the turnout of a few hundredrs voters, hitting mostly Rural Areas, precisely there where Value-motivated Honest Simple People are usually located...

It reminds of the Exceptional Rains and Snow-storms which had targetted the Upper part of South Carolina, (where Huck had focused, while Local Authorities claimed that they had no means to get the snow out of the blocked streets...), the same day that Huckabee, a long-time Front-runner, was unexpectedly overrun by McCain with a narrow tiny difference of only 1%...

SC's unexpected outcome had a decisive impact on the overall trend of GOP primaries, changing the 1st place from Huckabee to McCain.

Now, at least Missouri's final results might be the most blatant example of last-minute abnormal distortion provoked during alarmism about such exceptional weather phenomena.

Surprisingly, it's also a Fact that those Alarmist Weather Forecasts stopped, all out of a sudden, exactly when Poll Stations were closing : A little before 8 pm. !..

I realize there is nothing more important to you than electing Mike Huckabee President, but just for the record: we've had 49 confirmed tornadoes today; and as I write this (11:30 pm CST) and there are still ten active tornado warnings — and as incredible as I know this will sound to you, I'll just bet you that those warnings were not issued by members of the Severe Storms Forecasting Center in Norman, Oklahoma who were Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton supporters to keep Republicans from voting.

For your information: there are ten confirmed fatalities in Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky; the Memphis Airport took a direct hit; and the town of Jackson, Tennessee was severely damaged by a long-tracked, violent tornado — again, probably NOT cast upon the city by Mitt Romney, John McCain or Ron Paul supporters to keep Mike Huckabee voters from voting.

Here's a clue, pal: as a meteorologist, if I have to scream bloody murder to get people to act — getting into an interior room, out of a mobile home and into a storm shelter, going to a basement and getting under strong furniture to protect themselves during a tornado emergency — I will scream bloody murder EVEN IF the Republicans are having primary elections; EVEN IF the Superbowl is on and the game is in the last five minutes; EVEN IF a Republican President is giving the State of the Union speech; and EVEN IF it means I have to figure out a way to take control of every single computer of every single users in the path of a tornado* if it means getting those people to take action which will save their lives.

Have I made myself perfectly clear?

*which I haven't yet figured out how to do, but if I could do it to send a message to people in the path of a tornado to shut down their computers and take cover, I would — in a heartbeat!

Since these weather reports are based on REAL weather (and still going on hours after the polls are closed), I think the only logical conclusion is that God is voting for McCain. ;)
Or Obama. Either way, a populist candidate more or less.

Maybe he wants change too. Get some appreciation for his day job. He does, technically, count as a person, if you believe in him. ;)

It's worth noting that they struck immediately after the states were called for Clinton. Clearly, God was disappointed that his chosen candidate wasn't favored by Tennessee.

Since the poster I responded to was concerned with the Republican primaries, that is why I mentioned McCain. So, apparently God wants to see McCain vs. Obama in the general election. Glad we got that cleared up. :D

Well, maybe it's just Clinton.

Remember, Pat claimed Huckabee was too populist for his tastes. Then again, for Pat, anyone who isn't for worshipping the rich is probably a John Edwards. lol.

This statement is filled with fail.

If the alarms stopped exactly when poll stations were closing, it would be exactly 8pm. Can you give us an exact time that this supposedly happened and actually back it up with some reality?

My guess is not.

You are trading intellectual honesty for political points.

That makes it hard to trust anything you say about your favored candidate and probably reflects poorly on him.

News Release: Mike Huckabee Offers His Condolences After Deadly Tornadoes Rip Through Arkansas

February 05, 2008

Little Rock, AR - Former Arkansas Governor and Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee has issued the following comment in response to the tragic deaths as a result of severe weather in Arkansas:
"The news of these deadly tornadoes bring back many memories of dealing with numerous tornadoes during my tenure as Governor, and Janet and I know all too well the horrors faced by those in a tornado's path. While we hope tonight is a time for us to celebrate election results, we are reminded that nothing is as important as the lives of these fellow Arkansans, and our hearts go out to their families."

Actually, FreeRepublic has always been really good about posting weather alerts. I don't know why that would be cited as alarmist, it looks like any other update I have seen. I admit I am a member of FreeRepublic, and they can get a bit whacky, but this stuff they take seriously.

My prayers are with those in the areas hit. I spent 3 months in Oklahoma during tornado season. We never got hit, but had a few warnings, and God bless those who live in those areas, because I was scared out of my wits.
