Black hurricanes....

Well, it appears our African-American friends have found yet something  
else to be pissed about. A black congresswoman (this would be Sheila  
Jackson Lee, of Houston ), reportedly complained that the names of  
hurricanes are all Caucasian sounding names.

She would prefer some names that reflect African-American culture such  
as Chamiqua, Tanisha, LaShonda, Dawayne, and Jamal.

I am NOT making this up!

She would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in "language"  
that street people can understand because one of the problems that  
happened in New Orleans was, that black people couldn't understand the  
seriousness of the situation, due to the racially biased language of  
the weather report.

I guess if the weather person says that the winds are going to blow at  
140+ MPH, thats too hard to understand

I can hear it now: A weatherman in New Orleans says...
Wazzup, mutha-fukkas! Hehr-i-cane Chamiqua be headin' fo' yo ass like  
Leroy on a crotch rocket!
Bitch be a category fo'! So, turn off dem chitlins, grab yo' chirren,  
leave yo crib, and head fo' de nearest FEMA office fo yo FREE ****!
