1. I blame the denialist, obstructionist Republicons for this...

Republicon-style Know-NothingHeads are in every nation, bearing different names.

But make no mistake. They are determined to lie to the public about climate reality until the bitter end.

The RepubliCorp payola is too damn attractive for the likes of the Chickenhawk RepubliCon Propaganda Cronies: Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity, Beck & the others to ever go anywhere near the truth about what is happening...

4. They would just move on to the next talking point..
I'm thinking something like... well, "this isn't caused by human activity, and there's nothing we can do or could have done to change this."

All they know is money. You can make more money when you spend less on your product. "Not adhering to these nonsensical pollution laws will save money we can pass on to the consumer!" Yeah, right. We all know where the profit goes.

3. I only wish they would use climate change instead of warming
because of the stupidity of some people.

Kick and nominated.

5. The perverted Republicans will probably enjoy seeing Bangladeshis drown or be displaced
Carrying their wet blankets toward the frontier. America won't get the worst of global warming, and America won't get it first.
