With an impeccable sense of poor timing due to a snowstorm in Las Vegas and unusually cold weather throughout the nation, North Carolina Congressman Heath Shuler (D-Of Course) is warning that global warming could harm the Christmas tree industry in his state. Key word is "could" since there is no evidence that any Christmas trees in that state have suffered from a global warming that hasn't even been proven to exist. Here is the Associated Press story of Shuler sounding the alarm for something that could happen (emphasis mine):
North Carolina Rep. Heath Shuler and forestry observers are warning that climate change could alter the state's Christmas trees.
Shuler and others plan to hold a press conference Thursday to discuss the impact of climate change.

Craig Ferguson just mentioned Malibu and Vegas snow and mocked Al Gore. The crowd erupted in applause.

Your birds of a feather crap can take a flying leap. Comparing Shular to Manning and making the connection at UT doesn’t get dismissed lightly. Continue on with your name calling, it’s quite expected.

That link I posted about his political contribution lists Cleveland as his residence.
