STOP POINTING FINGERS. ALL AMERICANS ARE TO BLAME FOR NOT ACKNOWLEDGING CLIMATE CHANGE SOONER, UNLIKE THE REST OF THE WORLD.

California, long Democrat-led, has suffered terribly from climate-change-related weather extremes. What's happening in Texas is another weather extreme that will become more frequent with our changing climate triggered by man.

It's not a Dem vs. Rep thing, even though Republicans are more likely to deny climate change than Democrats.

[b]It's that we need a comprehensive, federal, effort to reduce pollution and strengthen our infrastructure[/b] so we can all withstand FLOODS, TORNADOES, HIGH WINDS, HIGH HEAT, and BITTER COLD.

Until January, who controlled the Senate and Executive branch?
Who let all of the climate bills die on their desk?
Who let all of the infrastructure bills die on their desk?

This isn't a "both sides" issue.[/quote]

And I WILL keep pointing fingers because this is just chickens coming home to roost! How many more weather related bailouts will Texas need? Everyone remembers California’s wildfires, but here’s what: [i]California keeps trying to address global warming. It’s the knuckle dragging GOP in places like Texas who keep holding up addressing climate change as a country and who keep mocking places like California for trying![/i] There is not both sides; there is the GOP shackling us to their stupidity and surprise, surprise here with their hands out again.

Why is one of the most libertarian states in the country even asking for aid?  Haven’t they voted and preached for years about self sufficiency.  And don’t get me started on Sandy and the CA wildfires.

TX created this mess.  And I’d be glad to help fellow Americans under normal circumstances. But these folks have passed a Bill trying to secede and voted against aid to every other state for every other disaster.  They need to reach into their own pockets to fix it.  And maybe next time NY is underwater, vote to help.

Texans are the crappy neighbors who don’t mow their lawn, don’t do trick or treat, are mean to the neighborhood kids and set off firecrackers until 2 am for the entire month of July, and refuse to help their neighbor jump start their car.   And then start a neighborhood Go Fund Me the second they have a family illness or job loss.  Nope. [/quote]

That's not how it works, dear.  You're not in charge, thankfully.[/quote]
