I think Katrina showed us all how 'ready' the coast is.

I hope this one takes out Texas. Let all those Bush worshipping fools try and rationalize God's motive on this, while forgiving the government and their overstretched armed forces, with a side dish of leadership incompetance. All as Bush the Broken Record rationalizes poor leadership with:

| Likelihood is that it will cause the same sort of damage as most huricanes but not devistation as scene with Katrina. Level 4 huricanes are not uncommon but Katrina is a special case because it happened to hit a city that is largely below sea level so the water built up rather then draining. So long as Rita doesn't hit N'awlin's or dump the lion's share of it's water in the Mississippi watershed it shoudn't be too spectacular. |

This is soo not looking pretty:
"Hurricane Rita's winds are at 175 mph as it spins closer to the Texas coast -- where it is projected to make landfall early Saturday -- and as thousands of residents begin evacuating the area. Rita "could be worse than Katrina" if it maintains its intensity, officials say." |
