Is it too early for wingnuts to start denying the Tsunami?
I can hear it already:

"The Tsunami NEVER hapened - IT'S A LIBERAL HOAX, meant to make the president look bad"!

"Where are all the dead animals?"

"Not enough Prussian Blue at the funeral pyres"

"The Tsunami was just misunderstood"

Quick - call Mel Gibson's father; is www.tsunamideniers.org taken?

1. It's never too late to compare it to "Noah's Flood"!
Sinners!!! It's not too late to convert.....to Capitalism!

3. Today I heard Limbaugh spinning out of control,
suggesting that environmentalists are blaming ANY natural
occurrences, such as the quakes and resulting tsunamis, on global warming.

6. Unfortunately, Sir
Statements to precisely that effect have been made in this very forum over the last few days....

"The mind wobbles...."

9. Oh, come on now.
There's large and important difference between a few nutjobs with screws loose and environmentalists. Limbaugh would like to confuse the two, I'd think you'd be less prone to.

10. Such Statements Were Made Here, Sir
The propensity of some on the left for feeding the other side excellent lines of attack is something that irritates me considerably....

"My god, man, slap yourself and think!"

11. Sure, and some people think 9-11 didn't happen.
But I wouldn't call them "environmentalists" either.

12. No, Sir
They are persistent fools. Some of them are environmentalists, some of them are vote-fraud activists; they have a variety of crankish interests.

4. No, George Bush did it
It was an inside job. He dropped a series of nuclear bombs in the Indian Ocean. Unfortunately, wingnuts are found on the left as well as the right.

7. That started on day one
They were/are claiming the fatality totals are inflated in order to receive more aid. They also started immediately with their typical "liberals will blame bush" crap.
