Well that didn't take long. My favorite part is this is the first one in NINE years. But hey, let's rule out the fact that inevitably NATURE was gonna come back. This is DEFINITELY global warming.
A more solid case for global warming would be a hurricane of this magnitude hitting that spot EVERY year. Not just one or two of these hurricanes per year SOMEWHERE on the east coast/gulf, because that has happened since North America existed. Just saying.

LOL. I fully expect the religious right to claim that Hurricane Harvey is God's punishment for not passing the bathroom bill.
Its usually the other side that politicizes it.
I'm really curious to see if Texas Windstorm refuses to pay claims like they did after Ike. That's the political question I'm curious about. TWIA is the insurer of last resort for coastal Texas. But given the political dynamic in Matagorda, Galveston, Southeast Harris, Victoria, and Brazoria Counties....it will likely simply be a question of people getting the government they deserve if TWIA doesn't pay. This is likely to be obscenely expensive for TWIA. I'm lucky that I'm in a high part of Houston and have non-TWIA insurance for flood and wind.
Politics aside, this one could be a bit nasty. If it comes in at Port O'Conner at 135mph, the impact in Houston will be worse than Ike. And that's before the rain problem starts.

This is actually a funny exchange in that none of those (by the right) would be necessary without those same from the left first. I'm sure it hasn't always been the case and the pendulum has swung both ways, but very clearly all three (mmgw, racism and Trump) are straw men, sweeping generalizations and 'victimhood' perpetrated by the left.

They sort of are when the president of the right equates their actions to counter protesters.
And didn't those random Klan idiots claim this was the largest organized march in years?

You care to place a wager that at least one MSM outlet will run with Trump/Paris Accord/Climate change as a reason for this storm and it's devastation (if it verifies)?

my guess is the right wing folks in Texas will roll up their sleeves and go to work:
- get out in life boats to rescue people and animals
- sand bag to save what they can
- fire up the chainsaws to clear debris
somebody has to work hard and make this country go and it damn sure wont be a bunch of pansies who need safe spaces from a statue

Looks like the kind of storm you run from, not the kind you stock up for and ride out.
