This morning I found this post by Michael Naragon that breaks apart the canned response from Saxby Chambliss that so many of us have received.
I got the same email and have been working on a draft of a post that would have been very similar to the one Michael. Instead of rehashing the same stuff, I decided to just link to him and let you read it there.
My biggest problem with the response from Chambliss was his automatic acceptance of the need for climate change legislation. Quoting Naragon’s post:
…he implies that such climate change is man-made, despite the growing consensus among scientists that the entire movement has been a myth as temperatures have leveled since 2001 and have begun to drop.
Chambliss’ approach is that government has the answer – that we really do need the legislation, but we just have to figure out what it will say and how it will say it.
Senator, maybe sometimes more government isn’t the answer. I know it’s a tough concept to grasp, but it’s one that could rescue your political career if you’d let it.
