Eugene Robinson's Knock Out Punch - Republican rhetoric over the top

26. That's true, but in recent years they're actually regressing...

...to the point of rejecting science, and even common sense.

It's depressing to watch our gov't so ineffective in the face of climate change because of such throwbacks. And also depressing that Dems can't - or won't - take a much bolder approach with regard to both messaging and policy. Two years after the BP disaster this admin. has allowed drilling at those same deep levels when everyone knows we are no more prepared to do it safely now than we were then, and the admin. understands that there is one global oil market so all this drilling puts the Gulf at risk with absolutely no upside to Americans.

The right may have lizard brains, but Dems actually know better and still sell out. One party, two faces.
