Just in case you were feeling too good about the direction our country has taken in the last 24 hours...you know, with the Supreme Court rulings that ruled Obamacare was constitutional and that states must allow gay marriage, here is a little something to bring you back to reality.
California Republicans are pushing to pass a bill that blames Environmentalists for the terrible drought the state has endured. Because, out of all the factors, all the waste, all the poor sustainability practices in agriculture and industry across the state, its the tree-huggers who caused the drought.
But fear not, folks. Today we took 2 steps forward and one step back. As upsetting as that is, it is still technically progress. I guess in order for people to accept the science of climate change, the Supreme Court is going to have to rule on whether the science is constitutional or not.

Flip-Flop Huckabee
Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee came out and said he believes that climate change is NOT real and the science is NOT settled. (I know, I am just as shocked as you are.) He likened what is happening today to what apparently happened in the 1970's when scientists were convinced that the Earth was due for an Ice Age. So, his reasoning is that since some scientists were wrong over 40 years ago, over 97% of them can be wrong now.
Oh, wait, I forgot to tell you... Huckabee stated during his 2007 run for the presidency that climate change was indeed real and needed we needed to stop pointing fingers at each other and fix it before it was too late. So now we can add Huckabee to the list of Conservative Republicans who flip-flopped on the climate change issue in the last 8 years just to attract (or scare off) potential voters.
Good job Mike Huckabee. You have destroyed your credibility and sold out to Big Oil and Big Coal in an attempt to become President. Good luck with that.
