Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) on Tuesday used the D.C. snowstorm to make a political jab, saying that it provides evidence for global warming skeptics.
The conservative senator took to Twitter on Tuesday amid reports that the area is due to receive another 10 to 20 inches of snow this week:
It's going to keep snowing in DC until Al Gore cries "uncle"
Some conservatives have echoed DeMint's sentiments that the snowstorm should poke holes in evidence backing global warming.
DeMint took direct aim at the former vice president, who is one of the foremost proponents of government action to counter global warming.
Reports of more snow caused the House of Representatives to call off the rest of its votes scheduled for this week. The Washington, D.C. area was blanketed with about two feet of snow last weekend, causing the Senate to adjourn Thursday earlier than expected on Thursday.

Hunter/DeMint 2012
I'd vote for them!
This is too funny :)
LOL! DeMint is awesome.
Great quote, LOL!!
The current Global Warming Cult response to all the snow:
“You poor under-educate rabble don’t know the difference between ‘weather’ and ‘climate’.”
As if that makes any sense.
To steal a line from Dick Cheney, there is a climate change coming. It’s called spring.
the more i hear from Demint the more i like this guy
And my reply to AGW kooks?
"You over-indoctrinated fatheads don't know the difference between your @$$ and a hole in the ground."
What they really don’t get is that DeMint was using HUMOR.
Something the left doesn’t understand.
Got my vote.
On the other hand, sunspot activity has been abnormally low and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation has turned cool, so we are probably in for a cool decade or more, but not every winter will be this snowy for the East.
By the way, Obama’s falling poll numbers now go by the title of Obama Polling Change...
Technically, it does. By conventional definition, "weather" is the atmospheric conditions at a given place and time. "Climate" describes the pattern(s) or trend(s) of weather over a protracted period.
Both are in constant flux within fairly predictable ranges, and complete stasis on a global level (i.e. an absence of "climate change")would result in one of the largest environmental, as well as economic catastrophes imaginable.
Thousands Protest Global Warming!
I heard that Algore came out and publicly apologized for this latest round of cold weather. Apparently he recently returned home after spending a few weeks traveling. Upon his arrival back in Tennessee he found he had left his refrigerator door open the entire time he was away. He is convinced that this is the reason for the current cold weather we are experiencing.
