Would someone please save this country from more needless embarrassment and shut Oklahoma Senator Inhofe the hell up? *big sigh* Once again I feel fortunate to find myself surrounded by people whose ancestors crawled out of the slime a few million years ahead of the others.
We recently saw An Inconvenient Truth for the first time. I was prepared to be absolutely floored. But it didn't happen. Why? Because it isn't news if you've been paying attention. And I've been paying attention to scientific information about everything from evaporating lakes to studies on polar ice for a long time and it all makes sense.
Since in today's world it takes a celebrity to get the public to listen to just about anything, I'm very pleased that private citizen Al Gore has been so effective in spreading the word.
I watched one of Inhofe's presentations online and I can say that he is one of the rudest and most ignorant elected representatives this country has. Is that the best that Oklahoma can do? Nobody seems to argue now that the cause of the dust bowl disaster of the 1930's was "inappropriate farming methods." Get it? *another sigh* I'm sure there are people who will argue that fact too.
My frustration with the term "global warming" is that it's become something people must choose to believe in or not. Forget about that term for a minute and tell me if it makes sense to stop polluting our atmosphere. Does it make sense to do everything we can to preserve and protect our planet? Hey, how does a LOWER ENERGY BILL sound?
It was such a pleasure watching Al Gore on TV tonight speaking to the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. Ah, the sound of an intelligent man speaking. That's something we've been missing enough of for what seems like a decade. What a contrast with that mottle-faced, sassy, self-righteous and misinformed Imhofe.
