B!*ch Rita Update

The landfall point has become well defined this morning.

The good news is that the traffic situation has appeared to have improved. I dug through a few traffic cams in Houston and didn't notice the sea of red lights like I've seen the past two mornings. This map shows vast improvements:

According to Fox News this morning the oil industry has popped smoke from the region. They are out of there and for good reason too:

AT 4 AM CDT...0900Z...THE CENTER OF HURRICANE RITA WAS LOCATED NEAR LATITUDE 26.8 NORTH...LONGITUDE 91.0 WEST OR ABOUT 290 MILES SOUTHEAST OF GALVESTON TEXAS AND ABOUT 250 MILES SOUTHEAST OF CAMERON LOUISIANA.

RITA IS MOVING TOWARD THE NORTHWEST NEAR 9 MPH...AND THIS GENERAL MOTION IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS. ON THIS TRACK...THE CORE OF RITA WILL BE APPROACHING THE SOUTHWEST LOUISIANA AND UPPER TEXAS COASTS LATE TODAY OR TONIGHT.

MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE NEAR 140 MPH...WITH HIGHER GUSTS. RITA IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CATEGORY FOUR HURRICANE ON THE SAFFIR-SIMPSON SCALE.

May God bless the Gulf Coast.

7 Hey DSM You certifiable dickhead, go to this website. About halfway down there sure as shit looks like a dead white guy from Katrina but the bigger question is are you suggesting the hurricane is racist or are you pissed off because your miserable unhinged ass thinks not enough white people died. And you call the Rooster a racist. http://cryptome.org/katdead-01/katrina-dead-01.htm

8 Still haven't shown me the dead white guy floating in New Orleans - couldn't find one. Still haven't shown me your airline itinerary for your trip to Texas to help out. Chickenhawk.

9 Disgruntled Pinka, Gubbamintrooster is still on the loose and RAGING MONKEY is slinging back the hooch, drunkenly ruining America. No dead whitey seen, as everyone photographed face down in Bushsludge is black. Not one dead whitey - Kanye was right - those poor enough to be compassionately left behind to drown were almost exclusively black. Shame on Bush.
