After a devastating hurricane, Trump still picks a climate change denier to head NASA
New York Daily News ^ | September 2, 2017 | by Linda Stasi

Dear Donald,

Hurricane Harvey could be your defining moment; the moment that changes your presidency from the chaotic mess of threats, bitterness and bilious paranoia to one of rationality and reasonableness.

You, sir, could be the President that saves the planet.

There is no denying that our weather is getting more severe, that the oceans are rising, the Arctic ice is melting and hurricanes are wreaking ever-more havoc each time one pummels another part of the country.

Harvey has officially brought the most destructive rainfall in our nation’s history — more than 51 inches in some areas of Houston. As many as 42,399 humans are in shelters.

Yet in the face of all this, you, Mr. President, have chosen to nominate a climate change-denying partisan politician, Republican Rep. Jim Bridenstine, to head NASA. How can you even think of such a man.

As this planet heats up, we have to look to space. That won’t be done if the man heading NASA denies the science and looks down on the truth of what’s happening in our atmosphere.

Mr. Trump, when you met with clergy the other day, you declared today a day of prayer for the victims of Harvey. And that’s good — we need more God and less greed.

But God won’t save this planet that we’re so busy wrecking without our help. Remember that thing about how God helps those who help themselves?

Help us to help ourselves by denying the climate change-denier his place in space.

Harvey dumped all that rain because the motion stalled. It had nothing to do with man made climate change.

The entire "denier" language was chosen by the Left. Germany and Austria passed laws that prosecuted "Holocaust Deniers." While their intentions were good, it is never advisable for a Western nation to enact speech crimes.

The Left saw this, and ran with it. "Climate Change Denier" is now Leftist and mainstream media canon law in support of their paganism.

Yes, Linda. The sky is falling.

Sheesh. What a loon. Probably a millennial.

There was a hurricane.
There have always been hurricanes.

To the left, this constitutes a tremendous change, and anyone who doesn’t see that is simply insane.

To them, if it’s colder than usual - that’s proof of global warming.
If it’s warmer than usual - that’s also proof of global warming.

It’s “settled science” - and anyone who doesn’t agree with that is not only insane, but should be silenced if not jailed.

What else can we do against their mass insanity except mock them, unless we BECOME them and start shipping them off to re-education camps where they can learn that banana peels don’t kill, that boys are not girls (and girls are not boys) and the weather tends to vary from time to time?

Hurricanes have been around since the beginning of time, and have absolutely NOTHING to do with the global warming hoax.

These warmist a-holes just won’t quit. However, I acknowledge that it is difficult, if not impossible, for lunatics to become sane.

See!? The Left can have 8 years of THEIR GUY, the guy who will cool the earth’s fever and lower her looming oceans...and then scream that things have NEVER BEEN SO DIRE! Nothing EVER gets better no matter how much time that have had to fix it. I think finally people are beginning to notice.

Linda Stasi. Perfect name.

Here’s a cool rant by meteorologist Joe Bastardi:

The question is: “Is Ms Stasi Bat Sh*t crazy?”

Believing things that are demonstrably not true is OK for children, and at some point in time, we “put away childish things”.

As the Daily News continues it’s spin down the circulation and influence drain, maybe, just maybe ‘ole Mort will attempt to right that ship. Doubtful.

The author’s last name is just so ironic. She must have a great future planned in the New World Order.

Yes. Global warming MUST be the cause of every very bad hurricane. Of course the fact that the US didn’t get hit by a Cat 3 storm since 2005 need not be considered.

Actually, she IS Goebbels. Never forget, she’s the one who said one of the murdered victims of the San Bernardino terrorist attack was as bad as the killers themselves. I think because he was wearing a Jewish-themed scarf or something...
