This seems wrong. Is anyone else wondering?

This James Wolcott post quotes the author Michael C. Ruppert, who notes that Katrina hit on the 13th aniversary of Hurricane Andrew, which wrecked South Florida in 1992. Almost. Andrew actually made land four days earlier, on Aug. 24, but it's close enough for the point, which is that Andrew was the first named storm that year, while Katrina was the 11th this year. Of course, if you're Ben Stein, that doesn't prove anything.
Also worth noting, President George H.W. Bush's sluggish response to Andrew is credited with costing Dad, cruising on popular support after a successful Operation Desert Storm, a second term.
Stein calls Katrina an "Act of God." Without debating the existence of God, we can all agree that hurricanes cannot be prevented. (The carnage could have been mitigated, though.) And without assigning motives to God, a la Falwell, one might still ask, "God, why didn't You act one year ago?" We're now stuck with this dipshit for three more years.
