Sen. Dick Durbin reacts to the tornadoes in Dallas, Texas earlier this week. Durbin calls for more laws regulating carbon output while he sends a dire warning that we must convert to hybrid cars or lose our life. Durbin says we must spend money now to fix the problem.

"It's your money or your life," he said a press conference. "We are either going to dedicate ourselves to a cleaner, more livable planet and accept the initial investment necessary or we're going to pay a heavier price in terms of loss of human life, damage and costs associated with it."

0bama, Durbin and other communist/national socialist democrats should go for a patent on non-sequiturs and post hoc ergo propter hoc. There’s probably a DOE grant of ‘green loan’ available on that.

Incredible! I had to go back to see if this was semi-satire. It wasn’t.

August 25, 1814, foreign invaders took over Washington and began burning the city. A severe thunderstorm and violent tornado drove the invaders out of Washington and put out many of the fires. Americans weren't driving hybrid cars or SUVs back then, but Godly men and women fell before a Holy God praying for their country. That's what your life depends on, not junk science.

I imagine Trofim Lysenko’s followers were similarly hysterical when they started to realize that the jig was up.

How about the congressman who was worried about too many people (Navy base) tipping over the island of Guam? Either these people are utterly stupid, or they have an agenda to fleece the taxpayers using the “sky is falling” lie.
