If the opposite of PRO is CON, then the opposite of PROGRESS must be CON….

Nevermind.

So the Democrat-led Congress is finally taking national security seriously. They’re finally resolved to attack the enemy that threatens us. At last, they’re committing our national resources to battling the foe who threatens our planet. They’re finally going to do something about….

global warming?

The CIA and Pentagon would for the first time be required to assess the national security implications of climate change under proposed legislation intended to elevate global warming to a national defense issue.
[…]
The effort would include pinpointing the regions at highest risk of humanitarian suffering and assessing the likelihood of wars erupting over diminishing water and other resources.

The measure also would order the Pentagon to undertake a series of war games to determine how global climate change could affect US security, including “direct physical threats to the United States posed by extreme weather events such as hurricanes.”

I feel safer already.

I wonder how much our climate is affected by the hot air pouring out of Washington every day.

UPDATE:
Report for the Democrat-led Congress… still polling lower than the President. Keep up the great work, Democrats.
