Memo to global warming deniers of the NE GOP: The Antarctic ice sheet is collapsing. How much do you think a 10-foot rise in coast seawater will cost the U.S.?

The worst of the willfully ignorant climate anarchists of the Grand Old Party in Nebraska is home-schooled global warming denier Beau McCoy, who says he has "philosophical issues" with what 97% of scientists say is happening.



     McCoy, of course, is too stupid to have a philosophy. At best he has an outlook or, more likely, talking points given to him by one of the Koch Bros.-funded astroturf slush funds social welfare 501 (c) (4) organizations. 
     The rest of the GOP pack isn't much better, especially Lee "the Keystone XL pipeline is a no-brainer!" Terry and Jon I-gave-that-illegal-TransCanada-money-back-when-I-got-caught-so-shut-up Bruning. More on the sad state of the Antarctic at Gizmodo.
