While America Burns

The Roman Emperor Nero did not actually fiddle while Rome burned in 64 AD; the violin hadn't been invented yet and some historians think Nero wasn't even in Rome at the time. But today we have a Congress that is screwing around while California burns. Even while the California Repub Dana Rohrabacher maintains that global warming is a "hoax." In the meantime funding for fighting wildfires has been cut by Congress. This is on top of cuts to education and scientific research. Oh yeah, and the nation's bridges are falling apart. A person with brains would think that the Repubs are deliberately trying to destroy America.
