Barbara Boxer Rules...the Environment Committee

If after reading this blog over the last year or so you're still unclear where my ideology is, its pretty damn close to Senator Barbara Boxer. I couldn't be more proud to have this woman representing California in the US Senate.

Anyway, my real reason for posting this is to spread the good news that Senator Boxer is in line to chair the Senate Committee on the Environment and Public Works. This is a great relief considering the current chair, James Inhoffe, who believes global warming is a hoax and "alarmist computer models" are a bigger threat than the warming itself. He may or may not believe the sun revolves around the earth too, I haven't been able to confirm.

Senator Boxer has pledged to address CO2 emissions now that Inhoffe isn't standing in the way.
