Biggest Full Moon of the year due this weekend as 'supermoon' raises tides around the planet!

Oh crap! Doesn't the moon know how much that's gonna piss off Barack 'Insane' Obama?! Why, he got elected on his promise to LOWER the sea levels! Who is this Moon dude anyway and what the hell was he thinking, raising the tides in direct disobedience to da One??

In all my 49 years, I have never heard the term "supermoon" before.

Man-made lunar warming - probably Bush's fault.

I looked at it this morning and it wasn't anymore "super" than usual .... although I haven't checked for a tide surge in my toilet bowl yet .

I didn't see it until about 2AM, we were socked-in, but it didn't look any bigger than usual to me.

I think it was only 14% larger or something like that. Guess you'd have to break out your telescope and slide ruler to notice. Besides, this so-called 'super moon' is nothing compared to the mooning we've been getting from the democrats lately!

Lower on the horizon also causes appearance to be larger, didn't have a clear shot up here till early this AM.

I didn't break out in fangs & fur so all is well.
