The new GOP Senate is already gearing up to cause climate mayhem (OHNOZ)

On Tuesday night, Republicans won big: They picked up governorships in blue states like Maryland, Massachusetts, and Illinois, and they held House seats in competitive districts with embarrassing incumbents like Michael Grimm of New York, who physically threatened a reporter and is under indictment for tax evasion.

But their biggest win by far was taking control of the U.S. Senate. As of this writing, Republicans had already secured 52 Senate seats, thanks to knocking off Democratic incumbents or replacing retiring Democrats in Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, Montana, North Carolina, South Dakota, and West Virginia. Another GOP pick up is probable in Alaska, and Republican Rep. Bill Cassidy is likely to win the runoff in Louisiana against Sen. Mary Landrieu in December.

I thought the Republicans ordered snow for Christmas.

How’d you get a picture of my sister in the shower? No wonder she was screaming! LOL

Dyed in the wool Lib that she is, even she regrets voting for Obama in 08...but couldn’t bring herself to vote for Romney, so went with a Green candidate instead. She —and her equally Lib daughters— is to whom this hysterical article is aimed.
