That was Democrat former governor of Michigan, Jennifer Granholm. New tone!
all kidding aside, hope ppl of Florida are ready for Isaac and seek shelter to stay safe

Totally just kidding! Get it? Being gleeful of a potentially life-threatening hurricane because you disagree with people, and are trying to falsely tie them all into Akin, is totally hilarious, you see.

MSNBC would likely call it the most “despicable bigotry we can imagine.” Tagg Romney blasts the governor.
@JenGranholm I'm saddened 2 learn you think God had picked a side. I believe God loves all his creations, regardless of politics.

And citizens call her out for her outrageous remark as well.

@JenGranholm So you're cool with joking about hurricanes?
— Matt Lewis (@mattklewis) August 26, 2012
@JamesDDetroit @JenGranholm Good point. This cuts both ways. But is he someone she wants to emulate?
— Matt Lewis (@mattklewis) August 26, 2012
@JenGranholm Nice Pat Robertson impression. Tolerant, much?

@JenGranholm Very tasteless joke. Would you feel the same if it were the DNC? You're just further exposing the rampant liberal hatred.

@JenGranholm @michaelianblack that's a good way to lose followers. #hope&chains

Yep, comedian and actor Michael Ian Black retweeted it. Because, suffering is totally hilarious if it happens around or affects Republicans, right? Like the Democrat congressmen who happily crowed over Hurricane Katrina. Because, Bush.
@JenGranholm cant think telling good ppl of Florida, God putting their lives in danger b/c he hates GOP, will make them vote 4 Obama

@JenGranholm Wow. Really classy, Fmr Gov. More of that civility we've come to expect of Dems. Thanks.

Stay classy and Godlike, Governor. RT @JenGranholm : R convention delay due to Isaac: I guess God has ways to shut that whole thing down.
— Randall Hodge (@RHodgeLaw) August 26, 2012
.@TPCarney Obama must condemn. @stephenkaus @JenGranholm
— James Taranto (@jamestaranto) August 26, 2012
Indeed. Where is the condemnation?

Oh, snap. That was beautiful.
We await Team Obama’s denouncement of the former governor’s gross remarks. Or are they too busy trying to falsely paint Mitt Romney as “divisive?”
Divisive, intolerant haters, heal thyselves.
