climate change is the new "it hasn't been proven that cigarettes cause cancer". that was a reasonably contentious debate until that day the roof fell in. funny how no one debates this anymore.
an interest group with deep pockets will fight a public health issue that damages their bottom line.
first they ignore you. next they laugh at you. then they fight you. then you win.
the g.o.p. is on a decades long losing streak of picking the wrong side of issues. i doubt anything beats chasing a culturally conservative family oriented hispanic vote into the democrats lap with racist immigrant bashing but 30 years from now this issue could prove me wrong.
this is just par for the loony far right course.
