After all, supply-siders and climate-change-deniers no longer control the White House and key Congressional committees. Democrats have a popular president to lead them, a large majority in the House of Representatives and 60 votes in the Senate. And this isn’t the old Democratic majority, which was an awkward coalition between Northern liberals and Southern conservatives; this is, by historical standards, a relatively solid progressive bloc.
In other words, Pepe is at the wheel, big time. So chop, chop, get it done. Like, for starters, send them "climate-change deniers" and lackeys of capitalism to re-education camps?
If the Senate doesn't pass a bill to cut global warming, Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer says, there will be dire results: droughts, floods, fires, loss of species, damage to agriculture, worsening air pollution and more.
Repent! The end is nigh. She says there's a huge upside, however, if the Senate does act: millions of clean-energy jobs, reduced reliance on foreign oil and less pollution for the nation's children.
Yeah, right. Jobs as guards at "climate-change deniers" re-education camps, perhaps?

Hmmm... I wonder who fed this story to Mr T.
