Another Branch Gorevidian

Speaking of crack pipe, will someone please pull Henry Waxman's from him.

The chairman of a key House committee said Thursday he will move "quickly and decisively" to push legislation curbing greenhouse gases with a goal of passing climate legislation out of his committee before Memorial Day.

Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., opening the new Congress' first hearing on the threats from global warming, said inaction on the climate issue is causing uncertainties that make it more difficult to emerge from the recession.

"Our environment and our economy depend on congressional action to confront the threat of climate change and secure our energy independence," said Waxman. "U.S. industries want to invest in a clean energy future, but uncertainties about whether, when and how greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced is deterring these vital investments."

Does this guy read the news? Bartman informs us that Chicago is about -400 degrees below zero but this guy is worrying about global warming? Huh?

I'm starting to wonder if Al Gore and the rest of the Branch Gorevidians are on some nationwide global warming tour, thus kicking in the Gore Effect....

By the way, I don't like to make fun of people's looks in general, but let's face it, would you invite Henry Waxman into a bathroom to do a couple of lines of coke with you? He'd probably snort up the whole bag.
