Whose Side is God On?

I remember seeing this dork that works for James Dobson and Focus on the Family at the beginning of this month. In the video he calls for Christians, at least his type, to pray that it will rain on the Thursday night rally in the stadium when Obama speaks. Not just any old rain mind you but,
abundant, torrential, urban and small stream flood-advisory rain...
I thought, that's pretty ballsy. It'll be interesting to see what happens. Like, just what side is God on? Something like a would-be Elijah on Mt. Carmel moment.

Within a few days of being up on the FoTF website it was taken down and a statement that he was only joking. Yeah, right.

Like they say, be careful what you wish for. What does it say when Obama's night was fantastic weather, and just as the Republican convention was about to get started, a major hurricane hits still-Katrina-ravaged New Orleans, reminding everyone in the nation of the most glaring example of the Bush Administration's and Republicans utter apathy to the human condition and the abdication of their responsibilities as our elected officials.

Remember Bush was at a birthday party while New Orleans drowned. The birthday boy? That'd be our boy Johnnie, Johnnie McCain.
