He won’t be in charge this time, so his opportunities to throw sand in the gears will be limited.
Fox News sez that women who terminate non-viable third-trimester pregnancies are having “recreational abortions”.
If my mother hadn’t had an emergency abortion before she had me, she’d have died, and my sister and I would never have been born. How can you possibly call yourself “pro-life” if you advocate for a system that would kill four at the expense of temporarily preserving someone that was never going to be born anyway?
Fuck you.
a) They are ignorant as fuck, and really don’t have much ability to retain information
b) They are an evil nasty piece of work, who thinks women should be punished for the sins of Eve.
Kentucky governor says America is weak for closing schools as a deadly arctic deep freeze wreaks havoc with record-breaking low temperatures
He should be made to stand outside for an hour.
I don’t get it. What exactly is wrong with staying warm inside until the worst of the deep freeze is over?
Real 'Mericans can handle frostbite, I guess.
Y’know, I can appreciate that “curl up in a warm place and wait” usually isn’t a productive course of action. But when the problem is that it’s cold enough to freeze brine outside, it turns out that that really is a solution.
I think the two Senators from Kentucky should go down there immediately and stand outside the Governor’s mansion in their underwear (preferably soaking wet) and prove that their colleague is correct and that a little cold weather is nothing to be afraid of. Who supports this idea? <Show of hands>
You realize one of those is Yertle The Turtle? Who wants to see his other wattles?
claws eyes out
In other threads about temperatures, a lot of people prefer being cold than hot because
“You can always add layers”
Why can’t people just add more layers of clothes?
(somewhat serious question)
Once he and Rand Paul are encased in ice, you won’t notice any wrinkles. Should happen pretty quickly.
Florida state legislators want schools to teach alternative theories to global warming and evolution.
You ever try to bundle up your lungs? Or your eyeballs?
Goggles? Warm-air breathers? 
This is why I love hot summers.
I hate hot summers too. I love 70 degrees. 
Somewhat serious answer:
I’m a firm believer in “you can always add more layers” (and trust me that you probably don’t want to see me with fewer layers), but at some point it becomes like trying to fold a piece of paper multiple times - eventually, you can’t bend your joints.
Very serious answer: materials matter. Go hunker down under 30 or 40 packing blankets and let me know how warm they keep you, for example.
Humans have managed Antarctica for 100 years (sometimes with more success than others 
). Bo is correct. The right gear can keep you mobile and warm. Layers let you prevent yourself from becoming overheated.
Now I don’t expect people in Chicago to have NorthFace insulated bib overalls to walk to work in. I throw them no shade for staying home.
I’m not really sure if you think I’m going to warm or cold - but from the quilted packing blankets I recall, I think 40 of them are going to keep me warm pretty well. Probably won’t be able to move much, though.
Growing up, my sister was in a room with no heat register, and she had so many blankets one cold winter that she said she couldn’t turn over. She finally got a small electric space heater after that complaint.
Because after about 15 minutes, all we’ll have to do is tap them with a little hammer and watch them shatter into cubes.
It’ll be glorious.
