Incredible Slideshow of Texas’ Record Drought…

Share article:

As posted by the Texas Parks & Wildlife Dept. (Strongly suggest you click the full-screen button to view these after they begin playing)…

In the meantime, following a summer of all-time record heat, all-time record drought, and all-time record wildfires to go with it all in the state, TX Governor and Republican Presidential front-runner Rick Perry so thoroughly denies the scientific consensus about global warming that, after 11 years as the state’s chief executive, he has not met even once with Dr. John Nielsen-Gammon, the official Texas State climatologist, to discuss any of it.

For that alone, it seems to us, Perry ought to not only be disqualified for higher office, but should be impeached, if the Texas constitution allows it, for gross, and even criminal, negligence.

    Is it possible that Gawd does not “make it rain” when asked to do so by dominionist politicians?

    Perhaps she does not have the power to “make it rain?” That not only undercuts the omnipotence doctrine, but suggests that Gawd has less influence over the physical plane than L’il Wayne does. Very disturbing.

    Hmmm…maybe it’s the gays? Of course it is! The gays are responsible for drought in Texas. If all the gays would just choose to be straight like Marcus Bachmann did…

    Naw, the only problem, Hankydub, was that Perry forgot to give God the coordinates. So He flooded the northeast.

    Oops!

    It is said that The Sahara Desert was once lush and habitable.

    Texas was too.

    Perhaps Texas is seceding from the nation in a way Ricky “Bobby” Perry had not anticipated?
