Rush Limbaugh blames Obama for volcano

Rush Limbaugh would - and then he did - blame Obama's health care reform for the volcanic ash cloud over Europe.

Simple idea: God hates Obama so much that he punishes European airspace. He doesn't hate him so much that he would actually hurt, you know, American airspace. It is, after all, God's own country.

That does make a lot of sense, this punishing someone else when his chosen people are being persecuted, like when the Egyptian people felt the wrath because the Pharaoh wouldn't let Moses go. God could of course be fair and punish Obama directly, like with a swift hard attack, but recall that God works in mysterious ways. Very mysterious ways. Including the fact that he chooses someone like Limbaugh to speak for him.

“You know, a couple days after the healthcare bill had been signed into law, Obama ran all over the country saying, hey the earth hasn’t opened up — no Armageddon out there — the birds are still chirping. I think the earth has opened up. God may have replied. This volcano in Iceland — airspace has been more affected than even after 9/11, because of the plume, because of this ash cloud over Northern and Western Europe.” [...]

“Earth has opened up. I don’t know whether it’s a rebirth or Armageddon— Hopefully it’s a rebirth — God speaking.”

To me it seems neither like rebirth nor Armageddon, but rather like a minor annoyance. I'd be much more impressed with a rain of toads.
