The Rules

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

There was a Republican politician that said something along the lines that God was punishing states because they allowed gays. And then his state got hammered in the ass by another storm.

He didn't walk back his statement.

These people just want to blame everything bad on their enemies.

I wonder if Rick Perry was watching the Super Bowl the year Prince performed, when it suddenly rained out of nowhere.
