While surfing during lunch today I saw a headline that reads “Texas governor: Hurricane Ike will be dangerous”. Well thank you Rick Perry for hipping us to that late breaking news flash. So is it that some hurricanes are dangerous or just this one or what? Maybe the news story will tell us. It reads as follows.
“Texas governor: Hurricane Ike will be dangerous
HOUSTON - Texas Gov. Rick Perry is urging residents to finish storm preparations ahead of a very dangerous Hurricane Ike.
Perry told reporters Thursday that Ike is a gigantic storm, and says he "cannot overestimate the danger that is facing us."
Ike is expected to become at least a Category 3 storm with winds upward of 111 mph before it comes ashore. Hurricane warnings are in effect from the Louisiana coast to Morgan City.
Authorities are trying to avoid traffic gridlock similar to an evacuation during Hurricane Rita three years ago. Only eight zip codes in low-lying areas and near Galveston Bay are under mandatory evacuation orders.
Traffic is stacked bumper to bumper on one freeway leading away from Galveston County and into the Houston metropolitan area.”
So let’s see, this hurricane is a “gigantic storm”, no shit? Who would have thunk it? Who would have ever thought that this hurricane that everyone, even REMOTELY related to news or weather, has been talking about for weeks might have some considerable size. Wow, I can see how you got elected.
Perry then continues with he "cannot overestimate the danger that is facing us." Really?! Overestimate, OVERestimate, you can not OVERESTIMATE the danger that is facing us? Why don’t you try complete annihilation of the entire country, do you think that might be an overestimate? I do hope that you mean underestimate.
What is it about Texas Governors and their inability to speak?
Don’t get dead
