Washington DC rattled by earthquake – Republicans blame Obama
The largest earthquake ever recorded within 30 miles of Washington, D.C., rattled the capital early Friday, waking many residents but causing no reported damage.
The quake hit at 5:04 a.m. ET with a magnitude of 3.6, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
It was centered near Rockville, Md., the USGS National Earthquake Information Center said.
NBC News reported that the quake was felt in the D.C.-area, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and Pennsylvania. Amy Vaughn, a spokesperson for USGS, told WRC-TV that the quake was the largest recorded within 50 kilometers (31 miles) of Washington since a database was created in 1974. The previous record within that time period was a 2.6 magnitude temblor in 1990.
Republican leaders immediately blamed the White House Administration of President Obama and the Democratic Congressional majority, a Republican source close to MMA said: “It is God’s punishment for wasteful spending on things like unemployment benefits, roads, bridges and schools, the President had better listen to this obvious warning or next time mighty Angels with gleaming swords will descend on the Capitol and White House.” Our source was drooling as he spoke.

Just like with everybody else, you get upset and your nerves cause your bowels to rumble. This earthquake was an upset God caused by Obama’s socialist agenda and extortion of BP.
Keep it up Democrats and you shall feel the wrath of God’s gas!
