She's still a category five. NOAA's latest update states:
REPORTS FROM AN AIR FORCE RESERVE HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT INDICATE THAT MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS REMAIN NEAR 175 MPH...280 KM/HR...WITH HIGHER GUSTS. THIS MAKES RITA A POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC CATEGORY FIVE HURRICANE ON THE SAFFIR-SIMPSON SCALE. SOME FLUCTUATIONS IN INTENSITY ARE LIKELY DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
HURRICANE FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP TO 70 MILES...110 KM... FROM THE CENTER...AND TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP TO 185 MILES...295 KM.
THE LATEST MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE ESTIMATED FROM REPORTS BY THE HURRICANE HUNTER IS 897 MB...26.49 INCHES. THIS MEANS RITA IS THE THIRD MOST INTENSE HURRICANE IN TERMS OF PRESSURE IN THE ATLANTIC BASIN.

Set up FEMA camps in Crawford and Kennebunkport for all those who the BUSH REGIME screwed over.

**WARNING** **WARNING** **WARNING**
There are reports that Hurricane LEFT-TARD has blown into mu.nu, residents are warned to use logical reasoning, and deduction to counter it's ill effects.
While reports are coming in that people believe Hurricane LEFT-TARD to be wide spread in it's fury, and immensely supported early scientific tests compare it's velocity to a fart, one with an extra cheesy aroma that may cause all those present to gag.

DSM,
Isn't there already some kind of screwy camp set up at Crawford? Couldn't they just go there? I'll bet the good people at Camp Cindy would take care of the refugees. NOT!
One thing I've noticed at all the refugee locations around our town: there are few if any liberals or lefties helping.
These lefties talk the talk but they don't walk the walk. Never have, never will.
It's the so-called fundy Christians who are taking care of all the refugees. Now what's up with that? Like I said, when things get bad, the so-called fundy Christians talk the talk AND walk the walk.

Jesus,
No camp in Crawford, as the bushies stole everything after running over all the crosses. House 'em in BUSH's mansion!

DSM,
I'm not worthy to be called Jesus. Please use any other terminology. I've pretty much been called everything, so don't worry about hurting my feelings. HaHa!
