That Radical Weather Underground

Conservatives seem to be doing their best to demonize Barack Obama:

Barack Obama has been running his campaign in the style of a revolutionary. Just how radical and liberal Obama is has been well hidden by the campaign. If you haven't heard about his friendship with the leaders of the radical group, the Weather Underground, you can thank the media.

Well, if you haven't heard of the Weather Underground, it isn't for lack of trying. Lots of meteorologists, and the general public as well, are very familiar with the Weather Underground: their Web Site features some of the most-useful weather forecasts on the Web:

Weather Underground Forecast for Sunday, February 24, 2008. The major weather story will be in the West as a very powerful Pacific storm slams into California. Preceding the main low pressure center's arrival along the northern coast of the state in the afternoon, substantial rain will fall statewide....

Presumably the alarmist conservatives meant the Sixties radical group, the Weathermen, but they can't be trusted to do even the most elementary research. Myself, it gives me the warm fuzzies to think that radical Barack Obama likes to associate with the leaders of radical meteorologists.
