Sen James Inhofe used his devastating ‘Snowball of Proof’ to prove scientists wrong, and end – at last, the annoying discussion of climate change. Inhofe helps WTFark answer the question: ‘How bad would things be, if our elected leaders were science stupid?’
Coincidentally, Inhofe will chair the Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works…Where he and his fellow science scoffers in the Senate, can do inestimable damage with their belief that ” Man cannot alter earth, because God is still up there and in control.” Inhofe’s appointment is proof positive that God is certainly not – ‘up there’ and has relinquished control in despair. Holding a large, frozen orb aloft, Inhofe addressed those gathered, “In case we have forgotten, because we keep hearing that 2014 was one of the warmest years on record.” Here, he reaches into a plastic bag, and administers the coup de grace.. “Do you know that this is?” Inhofe quizzed those assembled. ‘Your head on Koch campaign finance money?’ One might well reply. Inhofe revealed “It’s a snowball,just from outside here.” He further explained, “So it’s very, very cold outside, very unseasonable…Um hmm.”
Fark asks where we were when the snowball demo went down, then – without pity shows us. The ‘news’ often is a run-down of what’s trending on social media. It’s more fun to follow escaping llamas than cover idiotic Senate committee meetings.
I’m afraid Inhofe may have had the last word on climate change when he crowed, “The fact on this whole idea of the global warming, I’m glad that’s over. Gone. Done…We won, you lost – get a life!”
“We won, you lost?” I thought we were all on the same team, trying to keep the earth spinning – but God will take care of it – we’re told.
If you’ll indulge me. This reminds me of an old joke.
A terrible storm came into a town and local officials sent out an emergency warning that the riverbanks would soon overflow and flood the nearby homes. They ordered everyone in the town to evacuate immediately.A faithful Christian man heard the warning and decided to stay, saying to himself, “I will trust God and if I am in danger, then God will send a divine miracle to save me.”
The neighbors came by his house and said to him, “We’re leaving and there is room for you in our car, please come with us!” But the man declined. “I have faith that God will save me.”
As the man stood on his porch watching the water rise up the steps, a man in a canoe paddled by and called to him, “Hurry and come into my canoe, the waters are rising quickly!” But the man again said, “No thanks, God will save me.”
The floodwaters rose higher pouring water into his living room and the man had to retreat to the second floor. A police motorboat came by and saw him at the window. “We will come up and rescue you!” they shouted. But the man refused, waving them off saying, “Use your time to save someone else! I have faith that God will save me!”
The flood waters rose higher and higher and the man had to climb up to his rooftop.
A helicopter spotted him and dropped a rope ladder. A rescue officer came down the ladder and pleaded with the man, “Grab my hand and I will pull you up!” But the man STILL refused, folding his arms tightly to his body. “No thank you! God will save me!”
Shortly after, the house broke up and the floodwaters swept the man away and he drowned.
When in Heaven, the man stood before God and asked, “I put all of my faith in You. Why didn’t You come and save me?”
And God said, “Son, I sent you a warning. I sent you a car. I sent you a canoe. I sent you a motorboat. I sent you a helicopter. What more were you looking for?”
