Laurie David

The only reason I'm blogging about her is because I felt the urge to Google her name after the recent news about her and Sheryl Crow getting into it with Karl Rove at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. And no, I won't talk about that incident.

But I did find something interesting on her blog at HuffPo.

She criticizes Rush Limbaugh for pretty much being an idiot about global warming. But au contraire, Ms. David is the one who speaks without thinking:

Global warming causes extreme weather in BOTH directions. For example, the reason the blizzards are getting worse in the Northeast is because the Great Lakes are no longer freezing over...

So if the Great Lakes no longer freeze over, what the hell do you call this?
Yup, that's the entire body of Lake Eerie completely frozen. Much of Ontario and Huron as well. But that's not unusual. What is really unusual is the idea that all of the Great Lakes annually freeze over, like clockwork, of course until Karl Rove's man-made global warming came in and stopped all that.

But that was never the case. The Lakes do occasionally freeze over, such as in 2003 and in the late 70s. Which would make them exceptions, not the rule. But I'm sure Ms. David was too busy with her global warming tours and rock star recruiting to mention that.
