Enough Is Enough

Republicans are on a witch hunt for scientists who support that climate changes are getting worse. Some jack-off from the fossil fuel lobby is making it hard on scientists and guess what, he's from Texas. Not to jump to any conclusions, but it all makes sense. What also makes sense is how I always see great articles like this in British newspapers. I swear, if it were not for the BBC, the Guardian and even the BBC News on TV, half of the major stories about the US would go uncovered.

What do we achieve by letting corporations win? What do we achieve by teaching faith as fact? What do we achieve by attacking someone's patriotism? Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel and Bible stories only apply to people who follow the Bible.
They are just used to cloud and obfuscate the real problems. They are used to divide.

When you see $4 gas because violent storms, which are a sign of global warming, wipe out places like Katrina did, the oil industry will still report record revenues. This only backs up the Republicans version of the Golden Rule: Whoever has the gold, rules.
