More bad omens for Bush: Jeb Bush's plane struck by lightening
http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/5278547.htm
Lightning puts hole in wing of plane carrying Jeb Bush to Orlando
Associated Press
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - Gov. Jeb Bush's plane was struck by lightning as it traveled from Tallahassee to Orlando on Thursday.
The strike put a hole in one of the Beechcraft King Air's wings, but none of the seven people onboard was injured, said Alia Faraj, a spokeswoman for the governor.
The twin-engine plane, which seats up to 10 people, landed safely in Orlando.
The governor and his staff then took another plane to Miami Beach, where Bush's schedule included a meeting with Manuel Angel Nunez Soto, the governor of the state of Hidalgo in Mexico.
Speaking at the Miami Beach convention center, Bush commented on the lightning strike.
"The weather's very bad between here and Tallahassee," he said. "We got hit by lightning and it put a hole in the wing, apparently, but we landed without incident."
Asked if he was scared, the governor said with a smile, "No, I wasn't scared. Alia, on the other hand, was frightened, paralyzed."

Seriously though, I don't think that Bush is great, good, or even OK for that matter, but this is hardly... well, in short, WTF?

If bad parenting caused omens, there'd be much more lightning strikes in this country.

Riddle me this:
If what happened to Jeb Bush's plane was an omen, what do you call what happened to Paul Wellstone, JFK Jr., and Mel Carnahan, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

There ain't no justice.
Just like in 1980
John Lennon: 5 shots to the chest
Yoko Ono: not a scratch

Human beings have the ability to fire rifles. I don't know how many human beings have the ability to create lightning without some fairly obvious equipment...

I was under the impression that commercial airliners were hit by lightning, on average, at least once every 15-20 flights ... More often in some areas.
There's certainly nothing odd about it.

If those people dying in accidents were omens, why don't you tell us donks what they were omens for?

Damn. For a minute there I thought you meant moral lightening. I thought the ******* finally woke up and realised what an ******* he was.
