What are the Gulf Coast Texans staying behind thinking?

The same thing that they were thinking when they voted for W-they're not thinking. Oh well, I guess there goes a few more McCain voters.

I know it's their right to stay behind, but do we have to waste valuable tax payer dollars on saving ignorant people who have had every chance to leave? I mean, this is really coming down to survival of the fittest. If you're not smart enough to leave, then maybe you're not smart enough to live. In the wake of Katrina you think people would have learned from their mistakes-when the coast guard, national guard, fema, etc., etc. tell you to leave then do it for Christ's sake!

I guess God doesn't like Texas

Maybe, Jerry Fahwell and his fanatical evangelicals should line up along the Gulf Coast and pray their self-righteous hearts out for Hurricane Ike to disappear? I'm sure God would listen to them. After-all, it's not like they're French Quarter faggots or something. These are true Texas believers here!

So, c'mon faithful fanatics! Put your faith to the test and line up along the Gulf Coast to save your beloved state. There's no way it can fail as long as you have faith! God will show those non-believers when He makes the hurricane suddenly dissipate before our eyes!

God, if only our country were that lucky.

If God really wanted to punish us he wouldn't send hurricanes at us. He'd just sit back and watch us do ourselves in. That's the worst punishment of all.
