If, like everyone else from New England to Virginia, you spent the last 24 hours watching the global warming fall from the sky, you may agree that Sen. Jim DeMint could be on to something.
The South Carolina Republican took to the Twitter-sphere to declare that the region’s second major blizzard in less than a week must be a sign from God.
That is, he said, “It’s going to keep snowing . . . until Al Gore cries ‘Uncle!’ ”
Fat chance.
In fact, the usual suspects quickly took to the Web to declare that the blizzards of 2010 actually make the case for global warming.
Of course, as far as these folks are concerned, any weather out of the ordinary proves that they’re right; this conveniently makes it difficult to lose a debate.
Still, the snow falls.
The good news: It’s less than a week ’til pitchers and catchers.
Unless they’re snowed out.
