Pam Olsen, Rick Perry's Florida Campaign Co-Chair: Gays Cause Tornadoes

Mother Jones:

Earlier this week, Texas Gov. Rick Perry announced his leadership team for the "Presidency 5" straw poll in Florida, scheduled for October. Although most of the other major candidates have decided to skip the event, Perry is hoping a strong showing there will give him a boost ahead of the state's important early primary. So what's his strategy for voter outreach? It looks a lot like The Response, the prayer and fasting festival he organized in August at a football stadium in Houston.

Which is why there are so many tornadoes in San Francisco and so few in Oklahoma right?

Pam Olsen says that the Tornado's are being caused because "GOD is SHAKING"?
Is he doing the Mambo Italiano or something? I think the only thing shaking is the 'jumping bean' that she uses in lieu of a brain.

Since when was 'questionable' synonymous with 'ridiculous?'

Isn't it actually santorum that causes the water to swirl the opposite direction in the basin?

Since Gov, Corndog prayed for rain and got more fires, does that mean we can link fires to Satan calling him back home?

Yes, God is judging us and punishing us.....for not listening to climate scientists and for not believing in global warming!

Unbelievable. Or..totally believable coming from a Perry associate.

All of these people are speaking for God. Now, who is actually 'speaking' for God? They can't all be speaking for God because they all say different things. Who's right? Who's wrong? And, just a thought here, what happens to the people who claimed they were speaking for God and they weren't? (It was really just their over-inflated egos yelling about what they think is right.) Are they going to be sent 'down there' for lying about speaking for God? Because, last time I checked, one of the commandments says not to take the Lord's name in vain...

It also warns about taking what is in the Bible and adding to it or taking away from it.

This shows us that none of these people are really believers.

Tornadoes not really problems in the "gayest" parts of the nation. How are these types of quotes not REALLY freaking people out??

[GracieGiraffe]

True. In the "gayest" parts of the nation - you may see the earth itself trembling, trembling, thrusting, plates grinding, grinding, shuddering, quivering to a halt.

Hey, hey, hey. Enough of that already.

If gays can generate a tornado, we should learn to tap their energy. This will be the cleanest energy. Of course coming out of an anti science group, we should not get too excited.
