Chart of the Day

It's a liberal conspiracy.

More than 2,200 warm temperature records have been set so far in March. Take a look at the map above to see where temps are crazy departures from normal.

This isn't your average heat wave. Its duration, set against more than a century of record keeping, makes it one for the climate change chronicles.

What will it take for people to get the picture? The bankruptcy of an agricultural industry? Wildfires in the Midwest? Mass sticker-shock at the grocery?

I'm afraid it will take certain areas of the country becoming practically uninhabitable before roughly 40 percent of the country begins to question the "climate change is a liberal hoax" narrative they've been fed by their politicians and Fox News. Because Al Gore is fat. Or something.
