One day after the Tornado and this is what Dems do:

http://dailycaller.com/2013/05/21/boxer-uses-okla-tornado-to-push-carbon-tax/

California Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer blamed the tornado that
devastated Oklahoma on global warming during a Senate floor speech
Tuesday, using the opportunity to push her own plan to tax carbon
dioxide emissions.

“This is climate change,” Boxer said. “This is climate change. We were
warned about extreme weather: Not just hot weather, but extreme
weather. When I had my hearings, when I had the gavel years ago — it’s
been a while — the scientists all agreed that what we’d start to see
was extreme weather.”

“Carbon could cost us the planet,” Boxer added, plugging her own
carbon tax bill, co-sponsored by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. “The
least we could do is put a little charge on it so people move to clean
energy.”


The massive tornado that hit Oklahoma had winds up to 200 miles per
hour and killed at least 51 people as it tore through neighborhoods.
USA Today reports that more than 120 people were receiving treatment
at hospitals, including about 50 children.

Boxer is not the only Democrat to blame the tornado on global warming,
as Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse spent 15 minutes on the Senate
floor ranting against Republicans for denying man-made global warming.

Boxer and Sanders introduced a carbon tax shortly after President
Barack Obama threatened to use his executive authority to address
global warming if Congress failed to act. Their bill would put a
gradually rising fee on carbon dioxide emissions to fund green-energy
projects such as wind, solar, geothermal and biomass.

Another group of House and Senate Democrats have also introduced draft
legislation that would also slap carbon emissions with a gradually
rising fee to reduce the use of carbon-heavy energy sources, like
coal.

“You’re going to have tornadoes and all the rest. We need to protect
our people,” Boxer said on the Senate floor. “That’s our No. 1
obligation and we have to deal with this threat that is upon us and
that is gonna get worse and worse through the years.”

LOL -- Daily Caller.

And you know what repubs do after the tornado? Ask people to pray
first and foremost.

Will Sky Daddy reverse time and the tornado ala Superman if we pray
hard enough? Is that the idea?

Great plan.

What about the Repubs in Oklahoma who are in support of cutting
federal disaster funding, yet that's what their citizens need most?
