Call her wonder woman, or the greatest thing to happen to the world since my fluffy fish pillow. She can solve our budget issues, bring gas prices down 50%, and now, she can stop the largest natural disasters on America's east coast.

In an address to followers in Florida, Michele Bachmann said, "After I become President, they'll be teaching about hurricanes in history class."

I don't exactly know how Michele plans to cease something that can be the size of Alaska (so Palin would have a bit more expertise, no?), but kudos to her for trying. Based on her background, she is probably going to as Jesus to guide her, and then going to demand that he stop the hurricanes from happening. Because, of course, Jesus is the answer to everything in her household.

Just a little update from MA: They're calling for Irene to grow between now and when she slams into my area, and on top of the fact that I am in a "High wind area", or what they call the only place in New England to expect anything more than 50 MPH winds, I'm growing more and more nervous, considering that we lose power rather easily. 

However, because of all the hype it better not be nothing. I'll be POed if I don't get something to watch after a week of following clouds halfway around the world.
