In an article in the New York Times, it is noted that Alaska is suffering the very real effects of global warming, where the average temperature has risen 7 degrees in the past 30 years. This change has had profound ecological, social and economic effects on the state, which is perhaps why Senator Ted Stevens, a Republican from the said state, was quoted in the article as saying, “Alaska is harder hit by global climate change than any place in the world.” I would just like to take this opportunity to point out that Senator Ted Stevens is a moron. Why? Because while moaning about the effects of climate change, he continues to support additional oil drilling in ANWR, the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge. See this press release. This is a major point of President Bush’s moronic “energy policy” which relies solely on adding additional sources of oil, with no consideration at all to conservation. What, Senator Stevens, do you suppose is the cause of global warming?
