this is the ugly crap we are having to put with from you nasty people in the Democrat party
SNIP:
Add climate alarmists to the list of liberals freaked out by the 2014 midterm election results. If you believe the far-left eco-blog Grist, “the worst is yet to come” for “environmental policy.”
Former Newsweek.com editor Ben Adler
warned readers not to mistake conservatives for “rational human beings or patriotic Americans.” Adler said that because conservatives gained control of the U.S. Senate on November 4, they are going to take the economy “hostage” and destroy the planet.
Adler accused conservatives of “gearing up to cause climate mayhem,” and pointed to conservative efforts to reign in the EPA and approve construction of the Keystone XL pipeline. Despite polls that show otherwise, he alleged that these policies are not what Americans want, and conservatives were “lying” when they claimed a popular mandate.
With no sense of irony, Adler cited “Dark Overlord” Karl Rove as saying that conservatives might try to pass legislation on the Keystone XL pipeline and other environmental issues “that could get Democratic votes.” Apparently conservatives can’t do anything right by Adler, even when they propose bipartisan legislation.
President Barack Obama can still veto any bill that crosses his desk, but Adler alleged a conservative conspiracy to push a scary agenda. He said conservatives would “force Obama’s hand” by threatening to “cause a government shutdown, or trigger a global financial collapse by breaching the debt ceiling and defaulting on the U.S. national debt.”
Despite winning the Senate, conservatives have no popular mandate according to Adler. When they claimed a mandate, Adler said “they are lying, and should be called out for it.”
Adler apparently missed the
ABC/Washington Post poll from earlier this year that found 65 percent of Americans support the Keystone XL pipeline project. This represented an increase from two years ago, Huffington Post
reported March 7, 2014. Adler also ignored
the survey released by Gallup on September 15, 2014, that showed only 22 percent of Americans believed that the federal government should increase regulations on business and industry.
