Highly placed sources who would not speak on the record are predicting
that the U. S. Senate will soon vote on an amendment stating that sunrise over
the eastern horizon “is real and not a hoax.”
One savvy Senate staffer even claimed that senators might
vote to approve gravity (“things fall down”) at some point in the near future.
On Jan. 21 the Senate voted 98-1 to affirm that climate
change “is real and not a hoax.” The same day, 49 senators, including all but
five Republicans, voted against an amendment stating that “human activity
significantly contributes to climate change.”
Self-proclaimed climate change deniers like Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) voted for the “not a hoax” amendment but immediately put a quick spin on
their votes—Inhofe declared “there’s biblical evidence” of climate change, but “Man
can’t change climate.”
In other news from Washington, neither the Senate nor the
House is doing anything that could remotely be described as governing the
country.
Sources speaking on a deep background basis say the
impending vote on the sun rising in the east is expected to precipitate a
fierce party-line policy debate on time zones. Stay tuned.
