Limbaugh takes aim at Obama over hurricane forecast - Houston Chronicle

Rush Limbaugh claimed in his radio show Wednesday that the National Hurricane Center's warning that Tropical Storm Isaac could hit the Republican convention in Florida next week was wishful thinking, according to rawstory.com.

"The National Hurricane Center is Obama," he said. "The National Weather Service is part of the Commerce Department. It is Obama."

Isaac is currently taking aim at the Dominican Republic and Haiti and could threaten Florida next week as a hurricane.

Limbaugh questioned the need for the National Hurricane Center, which tracks such storms.

"They are talking about this Hurricane Isaac thing," he reportedly said. " We, who live in south Florida, become experts on it and we don't need the National Hurricane Center -- we don't need all these weather dolts analyzing this for us."

Limbaugh, according to rawstory.com, said there was no reason to believe the storm would hit Tampa, where the convention is slated to be held from Aug. 27 to Aug. 30.

"I can see Obama sending FEMA in in advance of the hurricane hitting Tampa so that the Republican convention is nothing but a bunch of tents in Tampa," he said. "A bunch of RVs and stuff. Make it look like a disaster area before the hurricane even hits there."
