The Republicans have scheduled their convention in Tampa, which is listed as the most vulnerable city in their Climate Central 2012 hurricane forecast. And they also chose the week which is believed to be the peak of the 2012 hurricane season. Is this telling or what?
Who can forget how the Bush Administration was known for it's incompetence and mismanagement from the bungling of national security with it's disregard for terror threats which lead to the 9/11 attack. The international shame with it's handling of the response to hurricane Katrina. The manufacture of lies which led us into the wrong war in Iraq and the neglect of the real terrorists in Afganistan.

As you can see from the NASA photo above the area that a hurricane covers is immense. I've experienced a few west coast Florida hurricanes and can tell you that you don't have to be in the eye of the storm to have total life disruption with loss of power and water in the streets. For the Republicans to choose Tampa during the peak of the hurricane season just reinforces the meme of incompetence. What horrendous planning. And these are the people who want to run our country again.
