Why do the "Compassionate" Liberals seem to be so Happy about a Destructive Hurricane hitting New Orleans?

Question

Is it because it will upstage the RNC? Isn't it kind of sick to be happy about the potential loss of thousands of American's homes and hundreds of lives?

Answer 1

I saw the video.  Isn't that sick?  The length these people will go to win an election is unbelievable.  Sadly, it doesn't appear that most Democrats care.  They just want to win at any cost.  Bad news is good news for them.

Answer 2

I'm not happy at all.  I would rather see Bush attend the Republican Convention.  The more the public sees him associated with this election and understands that McCain is just more of the same, the better it is for Democrats.  

Answer 3

Bad news for the USA is good news for liberals. Bad economy, good for liberals. War not going well, good for liberals. But the economy grew 3.3% last quarter, and the Iraq war is winding down - not good for liberals.

Answer 4

They are happy because when the water floods the lands, it will give the baby seals more places to play in.

Answer 5

Wht makes you say something so stupid and untrue?  The people of New Orleans are our people - Americans.  However, the irony is not lost on us considering the timing and the feelings that will be revisited when Katrina comes to mind.

Answer 6

Happy?

Who is happy?

I would love to see Bush and Cheney at the Republican convention.(It would be a laugh a minute) but supposedly because of the Hurricane they will not be there.

Oh, darn it!

Answer 7

I think it's horribly sickening.  Would you expect less, though??  McCain has just "one-upped" Obama by choosing a woman as his running mate.  I just cannot wait until the debates....gonna be some juicy stuff!!!  Gov. Palin is going to be able to shine and make McCain look even more appealing!  And of course Obama will keep 'chasing his tail', going around in circles around valid questions that he feels are below him.  We'll see how the junior senator holds up under fire!!  

Answer 8

Can't you be happy to see the RNC convention cancelled while mourning for the victims of Gustav?

Answer 9

The news organizations are so desperate for there to be widespread, catastrophic destruction from another hurricane that I wouldn't doubt it if they figured out a way to go out there and whip one up.

They could care less about the human cost, the financial cost or whether or not the Republican Convention will be screwed up by it.

They just want a story with the cojones to dominate the news until November so, one, they will get their ratings, and two, they're hoping it will keep Obama from destroying himself every time he opens his mouth on TV.

Answer 10

Not one bit happy about it.

However it does sure seem to be sweet, sweet irony.

Answer 11

who are these people who are happy to see ppl get killed?  If your talking that one guy who said it as a joke and apologized for it maybe being inappropriateness, he doesnt represent liberals he represents himself with his bad joke.  It was a joke though in bad taste get over it.  

Answer 12

Because they want to see America fall.  We need oil, so save the moose.  We want to preserve lives, so abort babies, but please save the whales.  We want people to be richer, so increase taxes.  We want peace, but don't dare go after dictators who threaten it.  If Dems loved our country more than they hated the Reps, then they wouldn't be so delighted by these events.
