Sorry Republicans, global warming is real
It's 1:20am right now, and guess how warm it is outside? 70 degrees, currently thunder storming, and tornadoes occurring in Southern Virginia AS I WRITE THIS.
The average high for this time of year in Richmond is in the mid 40's, the record high for today is 73 degrees (and remember, it's the middle of the night and it's ALREADY AT 70), with a forecast high for later on this afternoon of around 80 degrees.
When will Republicans finally wake up and stop playing POLITICS with the environment. Why have they made GLOBAL WARMING of all things into a partisan issue. Oh, wait, yes! It's because they are the beneficiaries of 80 percent of the campaign contributions that come from big oil, and big oil doesn't want people to believe that global warming is real. To the point where they actually PAID $16 million to 43 ideological groups between 1998 and 2005 in an effort to mislead the public by discrediting the science behind global warming.
HOW PATHETIC, AND SAD!!!!! I seriously weep for our planet tonight as I look out my window in Richmond, Virginia and feel like I'm in some tropical climate zone.
UPDATE: Richmond Democrat urges everyone to see "An Inconvenient Truth." I've yet to see the movie, but plan on picking up a copy before the weekend is out.

Boo Hoo! The earth is dying and it's all the GOP and oil companies fault. They are paying big money to cover up the evidence. 16 million dollars doesn't even cover a 30 second ad during the Superbowl. Well, global warming is real. But while you are swinging at softballs and worshipping Al Gore, you might want to ask yourself why the environment on Mars, Jupiter, and Pluto are also changing at an alarming rate. Us flyspecks can dither all we want, but what ever is happening, our efforts aren't going to make a bit of difference.
Yes, the earth is going through a warming trend. I think almost everyone agrees with that.
Are humans and their activities to blame? There is no consensus on that except from the Al Gore followers.
What I would like to have explained to me is how my SUV is causing the polar ice on Mars to recede. Any ideas?

Back to first grade for you.
Emeril, NO ONE said anything about Mars. If you're going to debate me on whether or not humans are collectively responsible for at least SOME global warming you will lose.
I love how you group ALL people who acknowledge global warming into "Al Gore" followers too.
How ignorant.
"16 million dollars doesn't even cover a 30 second ad during the Superbowl. "
So what. It is certainly enough to buy a few people into LYING for you.
