Yes, Meghan, I do doubt the earth is warming when there’s three feet of snow on the ground before Halloween.

Meghan McCain, poster child for the inverse relationship between bust measurement and brain size.

I've been accused of a lot of things, but intelligent isn't one of them.

Political analyst? Meghan McCain?

That's almost as funny as Chelsea Clinton being called a journalist!

Anyway, I remember a hurricane in November back in 1980 that went through Cuba and into the Gulf of Mexico. Nobody was caterwauling about global warming back then!
