Now that I have your attention - This is a perfect example of why we need a separation of church and state: "Man can't change climate, only God can." James Inhofe, Chair of the U.S. Environment & Public Works Committee Conflict of interest much?
The quote seems out of context to me. If he had said, "only Nature can," would anyone gripe about it? It's true some of the most religious assholes claim things like Hurricanes are God's retribution against Gays and that sort of thing, but this isn't in that league.
we have a separation. If the majority of the senate/congress think like he does, it's representative republicanism at work. If they don't, it's representative republicanism at work. If he is voting based on how much he got from a donor, that isn't representative republicanism at work.
At least you don't live in Tea Party Southern Oregon. We have a meth and unemployment epidemic down here, but this is the top story. http://www.heraldandnews.com/email_...cle_3143ae30-a783-11e4-b7f4-77e1f16e837e.html
You and I have a fundamental difference here, you don't think God can, and I don't think he will. But then perhaps you think that man can change the climate. My question for you is, how many taxes will we have to pay to stop the oceans from rising? Obama promised when he got nominated that, today is the day when the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal! Will he deliver? And how much tax are you up for to make a prophet of Obama?
The guy writing that article is sort of messed up. "Carol said, quoting the Bible. “We have the right to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness. And as long as the people who run this country continue to realize rights come from God, not from government, the people are going to be free.” How did he come to say Carol "quoting the Bible"? He must be an atheist or perhaps a Dennyist that can't recognize when a person references the Declaration of Independence from the Bible.
Pretty sure they would, as it exhibits an ignorance unbefitting a massively overpaid "public servant".
