DERP WARNING: Senator Ted "Carnival" Cruz on Net Neutrality.

"Net Neutrality" is Obamacare for the Internet; the Internet should not operate at the speed of government.

Guess Who Will Now Be The Most Powerful Environmental Senator?

Mr. Jim "Climate Change Is A Hoax" Inhofe.

Congratulations, Voters. You Just Made This Climate Denier the Most Powerful Senator on the Environment.

In handing Republicans control of the Senate on Tuesday, Americans effectively voted for the party's hostile plans against President Barack Obama’s environmental legacy. Their votes also put the Senate's environment and climate policy into the hands of the worst science-denier in national politics: Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe, who is almost certainly the next chair of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.

Inhofe claimed in 2003 that global warming might help humanity. “It's also important to question whether global warming is even a problem for human existence. Thus far no one has seriously demonstrated any scientific proof that increased global temperatures would lead to the catastrophes predicted by alarmists. In fact, it appears that just the opposite is true: that increases in global temperatures may have a beneficial effect on how we live our lives.”

In that same speech, he argued that an international body of climate change scientists “resembled a Soviet-style trial, in which the facts are predetermined, and ideological purity trumps technical and scientific rigor.”

Gallup's 2012 Final Poll Result!



Taken 2 days before 2012 election. Mitt Romney was so sure, that he didn't even bother writing a concession speech. Where is President Romney today?

Now, I'm not one of those who call bs on polls, I believe polling can be very accurate, but the only poll that matters is the one after the votes are counted. We need to hold onto every Senate seat we possibly can in 2014 because in 2016 Republicans currently will have 24 Senate seats up for grabs. 2016 has the makings of a huge Dem wave election. Over 60 seats may be possible? GOTFV!
