Now a senator from Rhode Island [I worked there once upon a time and had a senator and a governor in my congregation; suffice it to say I'm not really surprised by this] has decided that this is just the primo perfect time to politicize the deaths of children. He should really have waited a day, like our gov did after Sandy Hook.
While many Americans were tuned into news coverage of the massive damage from tornadoes ravaging the state of Oklahoma, Rhode Island Democratic Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse took to the Senate floor to rail against his Republican colleagues for denying the theory of anthropogenic global warming.
Oh, shove off, creep. Maybe you should read this from the BBC: Since 1998, there has been an unexplained "standstill" in the heating of the Earth's atmosphere.
In science, "unexplained" usually means, "Gee, I guess our original theory was...wrong."
