The West Melbourne Post

From the news coverage today you would think that the most important news of today is:

1. The death of Michael Jackson.
2. The affair of Gov. Sanford.
3. Congressman Conyers’ wife pleading guilty this morning to conspiring to commit bribery.
4. North Korea threatening war.
5. The regime in Iran slaughtering its citizens.

The real important news story is that the House of Representatives passed a climate control bill 219-212, with eight Republicans voting “Yes” and 44 Democrats voting “No”.

I didn’t learn in science class that we could affect the climate by passing laws.  But then I took most of my classes that talked about weather before the 1977 proclamation of “The Coming Ice Age”.

Hopefully, the Senate will do its job and stop this nonsensical bill from becoming law.
