So this coming Monday is the Republican Convention. For the second time in a row it will be postponed by the approach of Hurricane Issac. During the 2008 elections a Republican representative had said that he wanted god to rain out the Democratic Convention. Then Hurricane Gustav came and halted the Republican Convention. Conventions are important to giving political candidates a point bump in the polls that may make or break them, making this a significant early on loss to the Romney-Ryan Campaign.
Hurricanes are a impressive and humbling force of nature, or maybe God. Could it maybe be that god is trying to get a message across that he doesn't like the use of his name as a tool of hate and personal gain? Maybe he is even trying to protest the extreme interpretation of the bible that ignores the many aspects of this world he has created. Perhaps to quell this series of storm a change in mind set is needed in the Republican party. Just a thought.
