inane or insane? best choose all of the above
from harpers:Al Gore returned to Capitol Hill to testify that global warming is a planetary emergency. Rep. Ed Markey of Massachusetts called Gore a prophet, and Rep. John Dingell of Michigan addressed him as "Mr. President." Joe Barton of Texas, the leading Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, told Gore he was "totally wrong" and that, if need be, Republican lawmakers would stay late for an "all-out cat fight" with Democrats. Ralph Hall, also of Texas, speculated that Gore's attack on the energy industry could result in war "when and if OPEC nations abandon the U.S.A.," and Roscoe Bartlett (R., Md.) said that he thought it was "probably possible to be a conservative without appearing to be an idiot."
i'm sure it is, but you wouldn't know it given the majority of the republican representatives. then again, the democrats aren't hitting any homeruns either. out of context you can make anyone sound inane and insane, but seriously, do our representatives have to make it so damn easy? some days i can't help feeling personally offended by the low level of inside-the-beltway discourse.
