Hurricane Gustav, a Category 4 storm at this writing, is prompting massive evacuations along the Gulf Coast in anticipation of landfall by Monday.
Officials in areas likely to be impacted by the storm say they’re much better prepared than was the case when Hurricane Katrina hit the coast in 2005.
Meanwhile, presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain SAID Gustav might prompt postponement of the GOP convention scheduled to begin Monday in St. Paul, Minn.

We should all be concerned that we don’t get false information from our Weathermen trying to gin up fear.

Why would they postpone the convention?! The last time I checked, St. Paul, Minnesota is a long way from the Gulf Coast.

Yep, the Weather Channel, AccuWeather, and NOAA are obviously part of the liberal media. Just scare tactics. A little rain and wind, nothing to worry about. Right Bob.
