Remember the Ozone Hole? July 1, 2016 3:37 pm ER

Its shrinking.

Remember the spirited debates we used to have here on the Zone concerning the banning of CFCs? How it was going to destroy the world economy and take away our freedom? They were just a warm-up for the global warming debate we’re having now.

Now if we could only get Congress to vote on adequate funding for the battle against the ZIKA virus. The election is only five months away. It will already be decided, one way or the other, by the time any rash of microcephalic births can be conveniently blamed on the Obama administration and the Democrat party.

Then again, a bloom of ZIKA pregnancies in Texas and the deep South may change a lot of people’s minds about the abortion debate.

Yeah, tell me I’m way out of line. Go ahead.
