... laughing at the mind-numbing stupidity of Scott's prohibition of saying "Climate Change,' or "Global Warming" is likely THE most effective way of changing the political climate of Florida.

JUST SAY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fucking governor has them all afraid to say it. Did his law pass that made it illegal to use that term? I know he was trying to do that.

I used to believe in climate um... that thing...ummm..yeah until I witnessed the snow ball in the Senate demonstration. everyone knows that...um...that thing cannot be real if there is snow. in the very least, if we refuse to say it is real than it must not be. Gotta laugh at stupid logic. Love the clip.

I know some posters here who have always been highly respected, yet now they are treated like dirt when they post. It's like a pile-on.

It was either grin and play nice, say something stupid that further damages any perception of intelligence, or just admit that pretending something does not exist and trying to make it illegal to say climate change was wrong and will not work. If it does, I am going to stop saying student loans and pretend they are not real.
