Meanxhile in the Midwest today thousands of houses have been destroyed by tornados ,many americans have lost their homes and livelihood .Climate change is only starting but already starting to affect the lives of many americans as the president and the neocon minions keep pretending no particular measures need to be taken in the immediate future .Praying won't help,every delay will be paid tenfold .Don't trust any repuvblicans on this issue you will pay deerly for trusting those that pretend there is no danger.

For once I disagree with Tonny. The tornadoes in the midwest are an event that has been going on for millenia. There is no indication that there are more or that they are getting worse. It is just people's awareness of them that makes it seem that this isn't the case. That plus the hype of american media that cannot live without a disaster somewhere. I was affected by a flood once. The media reports must have been about someplace else. What they were reporting was not happening. In other words, they manufactured a disaster. As for global warming, I can hardly wait. Our temperatures this year are 5 degrees below normal. We also have 50% more rain this year. I too have experienced tornadoes. An F-4 scale, bordering on an F-5 is an awesome thing, you discover how truely insignificant you really are. And that you have control over absolutely nothing of significance. In life, we are just along for the ride. The Georgia Governor is just making noise and whining for public consumption. Blame someone and make it appear that you are doing something. Typical politician.

Sonny wants to do away with those 'silly' fish and wildlife regulations. Meanwhile, 5 of the 40 largest water consumers on the Chattahoochee are 'recreational' (i.e., golf courses), and some are private clubs. It's nice to know where his priorities are.
