Posted on 08/21/2013 5:04:48 PM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

After virtually ignoring the nation's biggest environmental issue for years, Republican leaders of the House Energy and Commerce Committee are planning a major hearing on climate change on Sept. 18 and are inviting leaders of 13 federal agencies to testify.

In the letters, Whitfield asks nine questions about how each agency devotes its time, money, and resources to climate-change policies and requests each official to include answers in his or her written testimony at the hearing.

How did I screw that up? I know, I am listening to Buffett and his famous rendition of “God’s Own Drunk” by Lord Richard Buckley.

Every night, the GOOBers go to sleep crying because ObamaCare is not called GOOBerCare. They aren’t going to let that happen again. They’re going to punish the commie ‘RATS by passing amnesty and the “climate change” BS. It’s starting to look as though America’s greatest enemy are the “rebranded” GOOBs.

Islamists in Syria and Egypt are exterminating thousands and burning churches, and all the GOP can do is talk global warming?

What's to hear?

It's a RATscam based on a RAThoax.

Any lesser of a finding than that is an outright lie.

"The GOPe will fumble this chance for a teachable moment. ..."

..... You got that right!!! My guess is that the entire thing will be staged so that the GOP can then have an Epiphany and declare .... "OMG .... Global warming really is genuine ... And 95% of it is caused by man!!! .....

... Of course they will declare this just as irrefutable evidence is surfacing to prove otherwise. And that will be the price they will pay for trying to be a popular party instead of a group of leaders ....... defenders of the constitution and guardians of that shining light on the hill.

.... Any shred of respect that is left will then be lost.
