Why Republicans will soon believe in global warming...
"Russia, the United States, Canada and other northern countries are trying to assert jurisdiction over the Arctic.

The dispute has intensified amid growing evidence that the shrinking polar ice is opening up new shipping lanes and allowing natural resources to be tapped."

1. They are using this controversy...
To keep from adhering to common sense pollution laws!

Regardless of whether global warming is the real deal or not, we need to stop polluting our home! People are getting sicker and sicker... more and more babies are being born with allergies and birth defects. There's no convincing me the rise in these rates isn't directly related to how horribly we are treating our home!

2. But it will make them favor it.
Ooh, get all that ice and snow out of the way so we can devastate more virgin territory under the sea.

3. They'll just say it isn't man made.
They'll claim it's cyclical. It should cool down any day now. No need to blame humans.

They COULD blame it on Obama's excessive use of that environmentally unfriendly teleprompter.
