Those 3 asshat Louisiana Lawmakers

who voted against aide for Hurricane Sandy victims - but begged for help for their state - are also avowed and staunch climate deniers:

Fleming, Scalise and Cassidy, by the way, are also climate change deniers, a sign that they’re unable to process evidence in front of their own eyes. Fleming has claimed that evidence of climate change is the product of a “radical environmental agenda.” Scalise has griped that it’s an effort by radicals “to prop up wave after wave of job-killing regulations that are leading to skyrocketing food and energy costs.” Cassidy in 2014 claimed that global temperatures had not risen in 15 years, which happened to be untrue. Remarkably, both Fleming and Cassidy are medical doctors.

Now why doesn't that surprise me? What is scary is that last part "Remarkably, both Fleming and Cassidy are medical doctors".
