Bachmann: ‘We’re looking at a spiritual hurricane’
posted on August 29, 2012CNN’s Dana Davidson writes, “Rep. Michele Bachmann tied religion into comments about Florida’s severe weather, saying Sunday at a prayer rally that there’s ‘a spiritual hurricane in our land.'” Davidson writes that this isn’t the first time Bachmann has equated hurricanes with acts of God. Last year she made similar remarks about Hurricane Irene, comments which a Bachmann spokesperson later equated to a “jest.”
