There's a story on NPR, The Dismal Sights Of The Texas Drought (http://www.npr.org/blogs/pictureshow/2011/09/20/140611223/dismal-sights-of-the-texas-drought"")
Sad to see and scary really, as this sort of thing is truly out of the control of man kind. Unfortunately, this seems to be lost on a people who think man is God and it's his actions and more importantly, his political affiliations have the power to affect these things. Judging by the comments of some of the troglodytes that comment there, you're forced to recognize the ill-effects political affiliation has had on a disillusioned society of crass people out of touch with reality, feeling superior over victims of tragedies. It's not solely politics and is actually a comment on general morality, but the inter-marriage of politics and pop-culture and entertainment has created a generation of truly retarded people.
This is how people react to the tragedy befalling their own countrymen...
Texas is a Republican state. So I'm going to generalize and say most of them cherry pick and ignore facts to support the idea that global warming is a hoax. They actually think praying for rain will doing anything. How primitive. They're getting what they deserve in my eyes.
AMEN brother! Texas got what it deserved a governor i wouldn't hire for a wal-mart greeter job, and a anti fact populace that would rather die of thirst than believe in science.
Certainly Texas Gov. Rick Perry can solve this crisis! More prayer! More budget cuts! More tax cuts! Why these are the solutions for everything!
Wait a minute! Aren't all these products available as imports from other countries for a lot less than what they are sold in the US? This is classic shameless price gouging to increase the profits of billionaire Texans.
Wanted, government consumer watch dog to protect the fine people of this great American Nation.
Yeah thats right kid, it's a fucking conspiracy. Texas is burning it's own land to raise prices.
Go read the comments and get an eyeful. No country in the world need lift a military finger to destroy our nation. Our own self-loathing and narcissism will do the trick.
