Friend --

In case you missed it, a sitting United States senator just doubled down on doubting climate science.

Senator Marco Rubio said in an interview this week that he didn't believe scientists are right in stating that human activity is affecting climate change.

Sometimes you just have to call it like you see it: Marco Rubio is a climate change denier.

By our count, there are more than 130 of them in Congress. For anyone who knows how serious this issue is, that denial is dangerous.

We need to fight back against climate change denial every single time we see it [gratuitous link begging and pleading for money removed].

For Senator Rubio's home state of Florida, this isn't an academic question.

Miami is one of the American cities most vulnerable to rising sea levels -- they've already risen eight inches since 1870, and it's speeding up: A recent report said they could rise another two feet by 2060.

Despite all that, Senator Rubio denies the science behind climate change.

If we don't speak up against this nonsense from lawmakers in Washington, we're never going to be able to seriously tackle climate change in Congress.

Add your name and help call out climate change denial wherever it rears its ugly head [another link removed].

Thanks,

Jon

Interesting OFA chose Rubio. There are a number of other Senators who could have been chosen as well.

Organizing for Action sounds like a Marxist group.

Pray America wakes up

. . . they've already risen eight inches since 1870, and it's speeding up.

Sounds like a William Jefferson Clinton problem.

Only (only!) 130 "deniers" in Congress (out of 535?)

So who isn't a "denier"? That way we'd know who needs to find a real job--preferably an outside job.

OFA used to be known as Organizing for America. They were a PAC for nobama. When he got reelected they changed their name and now just generally cause trouble.

OFA hates Latinos, the racist slimeballs.

Some of my neighbors mail accidentally was deliver to my house las week. They got mail for the NRDC and Sierra Club. For groups that supposedly care about the environment, they sure were sending out envelopes stuffed full of paper.

Was he endorsed by the ‘Tea Party Express’, by any chance?

Progressives consider ignorance a virtue.

Claim That Sea Level Is Rising Is a Total Fraud

Sea levels began to rise 18k years ago at the end of the last glacial period. They have risen about 135 meters since then which is an average of 7.5 millimeters per year. That is an average of 750 mm per century (29.5 inches) which is far more than the average over the last century.

From 1880 to 2000 sea level rose about 20 cm or just under 8 inches. Far far less than the nearly 30 inches per century average over the last 18,000 years.

If another Trayvon Martin type incident doesn’t show up between now and November, it looks like the Democrats will only have “Global Warming” to rally their “low information” voting constituency.

Don’t forget “war on women” and “fund a libertarian and win with a Clintonian plurality”

That worked for McAwful in Virginia.

The Propaganda Corps can manufacture new Trayvon Martin-type incidents any time they want to. Mobilizing voters no longer requires facts. Internet images plus lies will do the job.

Killed just because he was black!

Marco is a fine 43 year old Man. He has many good ideas but the idea that stomps his ass in the dirt is amnesty for these stinking criminal aliens who broke our sovereignty to get in here. RUBIO IS HISTORY WITH LEGIONS!! He will not redeem with half a loaf.Adios!!

It is now called “climate disruption.” And every time there is any type of actual weather, it will be held up as an example of “climate disruption.”

Only (only!) 130 "deniers" in Congress (out of 535?)

Dang it!
Who snuck the extra 100 in?
Wetbacks?
Global warming nut jobs?
Al Sharpton?

What?

[Smokin' Joe]

435 in the House, 100 in the senate=535 in Congress.

There has been no sea level rise since 1841 when this benchmark was carved in rock at Isle of the Dead in Port Arthur, Tasmania:
