Well, according to this one, right beside the Christian wingnut articles. Two side-by-side articles from http://www.spokesmanreview.com/blogs/spincontrol/:
The real reason behind Katrina revealed Some liberal publications are blaming the war in Iraq for indirectly causing some of the devastation in New Orleans, under the theory that money for structures like levees was drastically cut to make up for spending on Homeland Security and the War. Just like liberals to connect EVERYTHING bad to the war. But Repent America, a group in Philadelphia that apparently has a direct line to heaven, knows the real reason. God destroyed New Orleans to cancel a gay celebration called Southern Decadence, scheduled for the town on Labor Day weekend, the group says on its Web site. Seems that local officials not only ignored videotape evidence of illicit activity last year, but put out the welcome mat for visitors to the annual celebration over the Labor Day weekend. This after the city had already angered the Big Guy by hosting Mardi Gras revelry that sparked such naughty behavior as the "Girls Gone Wild" video series. So obviously, what else could the Almighty do but send a Category 5 hurricane toward the Big Easy? "Although the loss of lives is deeply saddening, this act of God destroyed a wicked city," Michael Marcavage, director of Repent America, proclaimed in a news release. Marcavage seems OK with the fact that Hurricane Katrina laid waste to Biloxi and Gulfport. He doesn't mention them but we all know those cities have casinos right there on the waterfront. And Mobile, well, you know, it's just in a bad neighbourhood and deserves what it gets. He notes the Bible does say that God "sendeth the rain on the just and the unjust." We're still searching for the passage that says God's aim isn't what it used to be, so if He's aiming for the French Quarter, it's alright if He hits Mississippi. But if you're paying an extra buck a gallon for gas next week, you'll know who to blame. Posted by Jim | 1 Sep 10:53 AM And the feng shue is wrong, too You may have a theory on what's wrong with City Hall. Maybe you think things would be hunky-dory if it just wasn't controlled by downtown fatcats. Or if the neighborhood ayatollahs didn't have so much pull. Or if someone could just pay the Gypsies to lift the curse. Turns out all those theories are wrong, wrong, wrong. Word arrived this week, via a press release from the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, of the true cause of city government's problems. The hirsute holy man is urging leaders around the world to abandon all government buildings "With a wrong layout" and sadly, City Hall fits that bill. "South or West entrances produce disorderly thinking, conflict and problems," the maharishi says. That explains everything. Main entrance to City Hall? Faces South. The MMY says government leaders will have fewer problems and conflicts "overnight" if they abandon their improperly laid out buildings, and build new ones based on more harmonious Vedic architecture. Of course, we could have even bigger budget problems overnight, too, if the city went off and built a new City Hall. Maybe we should just wall up the main entrance, and make everyone come in through the East doors above the Council Chambers. East entrances "promote harmony and prosperity," MMY says. Now, will someone please brief the council? Posted by Jim | 31 Aug 4:16 PM ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
