Well, he *didn't*, or at least not the way it's apparently being reported. Apparently it's not supposed to be "divine retribution", it's the devil responsible for the earthquake or something.
The way I heard it on the radio, it sounded like an interesting story, except he never got to the part where a great hero rises to break evil's grip on the land.

I'm stunned by the commentator who said "Rush's comments were cynical," like it's some great realization. Has there been anything Obama's done that Rush hasn't had a cynical view of? His being cynical here isn't new or surprising.
