What does it mean if it snows in Texas?

I used to side with all the scientists who are convinced global warning is a real threat, but new information has turned me completely around.

I heard from Sean Hannity's mouth that global warming is a hoax perpetrated by Al Gore to make money and by liberal colleges looking for grant money from this socialist government. And what is his proof that global warming is a hoax?

The absolute, irrefutable, scientifically measured fact that it snowed in Houston. That's right, you can look it up on the socialist National Weather Service Web site. Hannity reported on it, and says it proves there is no global warming.

What further proof or data does one need?

It got me to thinking about other claims by scientists perhaps being bogus.

For example, I had an uncle who drank five shots of vodka in an hour. He could barely find his car keys in his pocket. But he drove 20 miles to get home, and without a scratch on him or the car. That proves driving drunk is not dangerous like those liberal women from Mothers Against Drunk Driving would have us believe.

They're just trying to raise money with that hoax.

And there's my neighbor. He's 91 and has smoked two packs of cigarettes for the last 74 years. No cancer. That proves cigarettes don't cause cancer. And all the stop smoking clinics around the country are really fronts for ACORN, so it's the liberals who are keeping the myth going for their own personal gains.

The left wing liberal media does not report these things, so from now on, I'll keep my TV on Fox News, and straight-talking Sean Hannity.

They're the only ones with the guts to seek out and report the truth, and explain the proof. And they monitor the weather in Guatemala, too.
