Bad sign when a reporter asks if you “really meant that”.

“One reason why we have the fires in California is global warming,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) told reporters Tuesday, stressing the need to pass the Democrats’ comprehensive energy package.

Just like global warming caused Katrina, right? Yeah, that's the ticket.

It wasn’t global warming... it was arson.

Should Harry Reid or any one of the bubble brain liberal Democrats read Free Republic, it is my hope that you put the Global Warming hysteria to rest by knowing that global warming is an incremental change in the earth's climate caused by the SUN.

Further facts can be read here:

"Global Warming: The Origin and Nature of the Alleged Scientific Consensus"by Richard Lindzen, Richard S. Lindzen is the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Note: Unlike Gore's fictional Hollywood movies, the Cato Institute doesn't publish bullshit.

Hoping one or two of the liberal Democrats can read and comprehend the material but that is doubtful... so the pictures in the report might help...lol

Furthermore, the first fire was started by a fallen electrical wire... hurricane force Santa Ana winds can do that.

I just heard that one of the fires was arson. The perp's been caught.

No word on the 3rd fire yet.

I’m hoping these displaced residents call out the environmental movement for their massive contribution to these situations, much like they did in Tahoe earlier this year:

Drinking Coffee  LOL, what an idiot!  The Colorado river basin is getting low because Vegas has a metro population of 1,777,539 which is about 1,777,509 more than it had 50 years ago.  Not to mention it has more fountains than Rome and it's in the middle of a freakin' desert.  More water is diverted from the Colorado river than any other river in the United States.
