There's nothing funny about the title of this thread or any of the other dumb comments.

God is punishing the GOP congress. Obama wasn't even in DC at the time.

I can say we felt it in Greensboro, North Carolina which is 30 minutes south of the Virginia/NC state line.

Not likely since I doubt there are too many liberals quite crazy enough to blame a natural disaster on God's wrath on people they hate. That's conservative religious territory.

More like an old established fault line along the James River. There have been recorded earthquakes in Virginia since Colonial days.

I'm surprised folks didn't blame this on the gays as is traditionally is the case but instead moved on to Obama.

Congress is adjourned until Labor Day, besides 15% of our representatives are in Israel as we speak.

A man is now saying that the difference in a 5.9 quake and a 6.0 is a whole lot of power. BTW, Fox is calling it a 5.9 not a 6.0

The sad thing is, people will actually believe this to be true.

I'm sorry, but I thought God STOP with the whole "Old Testament" approach to getting people's attention, anyway?


Seriously, the reason why this is a bigger deal is because it's a quake that hit the EAST coast this time. Obama just so happens to be in office for this.


Oh btw, why aren't you mentioning the 5.3 quake that hit Colorado not too long ago?
