Hurricane Names Spat Brewing

[Made in the USA]

Well, it appears our African American friends have found something else to
be mad about. A black congresswoman from Houston (Sheila Jackson Lee)
reputedly complained that the names of hurricanes are all Caucasian
sounding names. She would prefer some names that reflect African-American
culture, such as Chamiqua, Tanisha, Woeisha, Shaqueal, and Jamal. She
would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in language that street
people can understand.

Can you hear it coming now?

A Weatherman in Houston says,... -Wordup, Muthas! Hehr-i-cane Chamiqua be headin' fo' yo ass like Leroy on a crotch rocket! Bitch be a category fo'!
So, turn off dem chitlins, grab yo' chirren, leave yo' crib, and head fo'
de nearest government office fo' yo' FREE stuff.

Hurricanes bring devastation and Sheila Jackson Lee wants to associate that with black people.

Sheila, do honest black folks a favor and shut up.

Maybe Hurricane Sheila would be an appropriate name...
