In what I can only assume was an effort on his part to prove beyond the shadow of any doubt that he is most definitely dumber than dirt, the esteemed Democrat senator from Rhode Island, Sheldon Whitehouse, actually thought it important enough to warn us all how it is that sports stadiums are now at risk from the "sea level rise effects of climate change," and that climate change specifically threatens hockey and skiing. Now you’d think that there would be some genius on his staff who would have pulled him aside and told them that temperatures haven’t increased for 15 years.
But anyway, it was following what was a closed-door climate discussion with, of all people, executives from the NFL, NHL and NBA that this brilliant boob said, "We see significant sports facilities, the palaces of - of sport that are at risk from the storm, climate, sea-level rise effects of climate change." And he said the threat to hockey is that people will no longer be able to play outdoors on frozen ponds. Actually what he said was, "Without cold enough weather for frozen ponds, the kind of hockey that you play out of doors with your friends gets a little bit harder to achieve."
Whitehouse also suggested climate change will prevent his family from continuing to go skiing in Rhode Island: "I took my kids skiing at Yawgoo Valley ski slopes in Rhode Island. The New York Times recently reported that we can expect all the ski slopes in Connecticut and Massachusetts to be gone." He then added, "Obviously, given Rhode Island's location, if that's true of Connecticut and Massachusetts, that will also be unfortunately true of Rhode Island." So is this what he’s basing his belief in climate change on, his inability to go skiing? How utterly scientific.
But I gotta tell ya, the good senator, here, has a bit of a reputation when it comes to such Chicken Little scare tactics. As recently as in May of this year, this moron blamed Republican inaction on climate change for deadly tornados in Oklahoma. And I’m quite confident that he, most likely, is a card-carrying member of the same groups of which George "Looney" Clooney is a proud member, and that loudly tout how the recent typhoon that hit the Philippines was also a direct result of climate change. These clowns use any unusual bit of weather to prove their idiotic theory.
These leftwing nut jobs are very determined in their efforts to convince as many gullible folks as they can, that this cockamamie theory of theirs, which is really based on nothing more than junk science at its finest, is actually something that we all need to be genuinely concerned about. Back in the 70’s many of these same kooks were trying to convince us all that we needed to be preparing for the coming ice age. We see how that worked out. It is the most basic of scientific fact that our Mother Earth cools and warms in what is a cyclical fashion. To claim otherwise is simply dishonest.
Look, I think it’s pretty fair to say that this entire concocted threat that those on the left seem to relish in referring to as being the cause for some pending apocalypse, is nothing more than a money making scheme for some, and is seen as an excellent way to deconstruct the American economy by others. For those such as Al Gore, the pushing of climate change has proven to be very profitable. While others, such as Barry "Almighty", as well as the entire Democrat Party, view it as a weapon to be used to inflict all manner of carnage across very wide areas of our economy.
