Will Congress pass Obamacare by the end of the year?

I’ve never gone from sadness to rage in such a short period of time than this week when I watched a pandering, vile Democrat blame global warming for the rash of tornadoes that struck the South.

When over 50 people are killed by a horrible storm that spawned countless twisters, who could expect that anyone would be brazen and ugly enough to politicize this natural disaster?

John Kerry reporting for duty.

I love Tennessee. The state is beautiful and the people are warm and gracious. When I first heard about the killer storm, my heart went out to those good and decent folks.

But then I made the mistake of turning on the television and watching Sen. John Kerry give his best scientific explanation of the cause of these multiple tornadoes. I realize that when he ran for president he couldn’t stop telling us what a fabled war hero he was, but I must have missed the part about his meteorology degree.

Before any of the bodies in the south were even buried, here’s what this Senate scoundrel had to say about this weeks devastation: “[I] don’t want to sort of leap into the larger meaning of, you know, inappropriately, but on the other hand, the weather service has told us we are going to have more and more intense storms,” Kerry said. “And insurance companies are beginning to look at this issue and understand this is related to the intensity of storms that is related to the warming of the earth. And so it goes to global warming and larger issues that we’re not paying attention to. The fact is the hurricanes are more intensive, the storms are more intensive and the rainfall is more intense at certain places at certain times and the weather patterns have changed.”

What a ghoul.

The obsession that liberals have with global warming has gotten so out of hand that they sound like a bunch of mental patients in an asylum.

Consider for a moment what a clever strategy this is: it’s too cold outside, must be global warming. Too hot? Global warming. Hurricanes? Tornadoes? Floods? Global warming all.

It really is enough to make you heave. Continued...

Mike is retarded
I used to think that all Mike did was listen to Rush and take good notes, then go on the air and re-do Rush's show. If I was wrong then, maybe Mike ought to start copying Rush because Mike's show is the most retarded show on the radio. Seriously, you get paid? When does your hack book come out?

My Counter Rant
A wonderful rant by Mr Gallagher, and neatly coincident with the truth. Wait, that's no coincidence.

>In other words, these lunatics are out of control.

No, sir, they are _in_ control. And that is why it is a problem.

As for Global Warming, I'd be warmed a bit to it if it wasn't such a cabal of socialists, anti-Americans, and Chicken Little wannabes.

Really.
