I’m simply amazed that it is not snowing in Virginia as the always tendentious Al Gore will be here today campaigning for the Dem governor candidate.
Alas it is just raining, and we have already seen the high temp of the day. 53.

Don’t you know that the snow and cold weather is caused by Global Climate change due to dangerous greenhouse gasses like water vapor and carbon dioxide? You need to adopt a vegan lifestyle, stop driving your SUV, and lower your carbon footprint to near zero.

Snowing? Good grief, a little early, isn’t it?
Tendentious - attitude exhibited by puppet pres on the health care bill and how Americans are seen by the rest of the world. He’s like a dog with a rope who won’t give up the tug of war game.
To: tioga
It takes a tendentious tyrant to make a tender, tractable taxpayer.
