Rain of Terror
It's raining in Washington, a lot. And in Philadelphia, and elsewhere on the eastern seaboard. Bill Blakemore of ABC News writes: The massive downpours this morning shorting out government buildings with flooded basements, seizing up legislative communications, snarling traffic access to white columned buildings, fit exactly the pattern predicted decades ago as a consequence of global warming.
It's happening on a day when the Wall Street Journal misinforms the public on the Climate Crisis (also here), and the Supreme Court announces it will take a case brought by several states on whether the federal government is required to regulate carbon emissions. Though the decision is a year away, it ups the ante.
It's a little harder to keep your head in the sand when it's getting soaked, but the Bushites keep trying. When the rains come they run and hide their head, they might as well be dead. They're ignoring the clear and present danger that is terrorizing the planet.
Blakemore concludes: Meteorologists predict more heavy rain this week along the mid-Atlantic seaboard. Climatologists predict much the same for the coming decades.
