You know Mr. President, the Earth rains on you sometimes, that's just what it does. You can't have your local party bosses hand-pick your audience AND control the weather, especially on Earth Day.

Alanis Morrosette clearly does not know the meaning of the word "irony", but I think that Zutballs has identified a situation that is in fact pretty ironic especially considering Bush's environmental record.
Incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs.

Use the search tool on RM 1. The Alanis Morrisette "ironic" has been discussed many,many,many times and is the only reason I mentioned it. You guys are a day late and a dollar short on this one.

Right, but because Bush's stance on the environment is so lacking, it's not incongruous that Bush would "cancel" Earth day because of the conditions, nor is it incongruous that Nature would use this day to make things difficult for a President w/ such lacking environmental policies...
I don't see irony here...

Home Depot is celebrating Earth Day in North Carolina with a sale on non-indigenous, invasive flowering pear trees.

I think "poetic justice" is the correct term...
