Weather Wars



Sen. James Inhofe (R Ok), who serves on the Environment and Public Works Committee, recently exposed the truth about global warm-ongering. I mean, he really blew the lid off this thing.

Inhofe: "Its all about the money. I mean, think about what would happen to the Weather Channel's ratings if people stopped being scared."

HA! In your FACE corporate...-ish America! We're not swallowing your "weather reports" anymore!

"Increased cloudiness, continued warmth and a chance for rain in the evening? Sorry, not buying it.

"Afternoon breezes, 10-15 mph, with gusts to 25 mph? Yeah, nice try.

WE KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING - you Weather Channel fat cats with your big lobbying money! We know that you topped your own record for the biggest annual profit by a U.S. company last year, racking up earnings that amounted to $4.5 million per hour. We know you posted net income of $39.5 billion - despite a 4 percent drop in earnings in the final three months of 2006. We know you spent a record amount as one of the top Capitol Hill lobbyists. And we know that you won the dubious "Worst EU Lobbyist" award in 2006, for your shameful efforts to dispel scientific data on climate change. Oh, wait... damn, that was all Exxon Mobil - my bad.

Still, you've been exposed, you Weather Channel... "meteorologists", you. So take your scam somewhere else man - its cold as SHIT outside!

And thank you Mr. Inhofe, for setting the story straight on this "War over the Weather". (Jesus Christ, why is everything a goddamn war these days?)

I'm just removing the sad no comments frownie face.

Oh, and I like your post, too. Exposing the Weather Channel? Man, that's some hard hitting blogging. Ever think of doing it professionally?

You're really taking your new job as a hired gun seriously, aren't you?

By the way, did you lock away that gun? (And Dude, not to blow your cover, but uh, was that my BB gun in yesterday's post? You were thinking about ending it all with a BB gun? You need more help than I thought.)

I'm not judging you.

Is it cold somewhere? Nice and toast down here. Well in my home town of Buffalo I hear there is snow up to peoples roofs. OH AND just to add to your point. We were told the week after our ice storm that we would have the coldest weather Texas has ever seen and to get prepared by stocking up. The night when it was supposed to be 9 degrees out, I was eating Thai food with friends wearing a t-shirt. Stupid weather people. Bleh.
