I don't know. I suspect the residents of Joplin, MO; Tuscaloosa, AL and the states which border the Mississippi River and its tributaries might be beginning to question the conventional wisdom (i.e. propaganda) of the right wing spin machine.
So, to summarize this thread, you say these tornadoes and floods would not have happened if people had voted Democrat.
Daveboy, your strawmen may work for other ditto heads, but for most of the citizens, they understand what increased chances mean.
There is about a thirty to fifty year lag in the effects of the GHGs that we are putting into the atmosphere. So what we are seeing now is mostly the effects of the GhGs that were in the atmosphere from 1960 to 1980. For at least thirty years, we will see increasing effects, even were we to cease to emit GHGs right now. Since that is not going to happen, by the time fools like you realize there is a problem, it is going to be too late for a significant portion of the human population.
