Looney Liberal of the Week: RFK, Jr.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- This weeks award goes to Robert F. Kennedy, Junior. This Looney Liberal is an idiot because, writing an article for the Huffington Post on Monday, he managed to find a way to place blame for global warming (and Hurricane Katrina) on the shoulders of Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour and President Bush.

As Hurricane Katrina dismantles Mississippi’s Gulf Coast, it’s worth recalling the central role that Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour played in derailing the Kyoto Protocol and kiboshing President Bush’s iron-clad campaign promise to regulate CO2.

The Noonz Wire blog HERE, does a great job of blowing RFK out of the water....

Apparently, some study supporting the environut worldview came out earlier this month, which sent Kennedy into full-gloat mode:

Well, the science is clear. This month, a study published in the journal Nature by a renowned MIT climatologist linked the increasing prevalence of destructive hurricanes to human-induced global warming.

I guess we can all go home now. RFK Jr says the science is clear. One study has settled this once and for all. Global warming causes hurricanes, which, oddly enough, were somehow occurring in nature long before people were arguing about greenhouse gases and the importance of the Toyota Prius.

RFK Junior is a Looney Liberal Idiot because, despite his statements to the contrary, the science is NOT clear. In fact, if RFK Junior did a bit of research, he would have found out that the number of hurricanes hitting the U.S. have not only decreased in recent years, but the number of MAJOR hurricanes hitting the U.S. has decreased in recent years.
