Here is a surprise! It turns out that Garret Graves, the Republican who won Saturday's election to fill the seat of Louisiana Congressman-and-now-Senator-elect Bill Cassidy, actually believes that science is real! He doesn't deny global warming, and even helped develop plans for how Louisiana should deal with the effects of rising sea levels when he served as Gov. Bobby Jindal's "coastal czar" -- though maybe since czars are evil and bad, maybe he was more of a majordomo. He actually said that rising sea levels would be bad for Louisiana one time.
Um, the Army Corp of Engineers - which helped destroy the Florida Everglades and is still dragging its feet on recovery efforts - is not exactly a staunch defender of liberal principles. Restructure away, Mr. Congresscritter.
Mercifully, the primary products of Louisiana will not be affected at all. In fact, the beignet futures are actually <i>rising</i>.
But...I am curious as to know where you&#039;re from that you know of those delicious things? (And I&#039;m insulted that you didn&#039;t mention Tabasco!)
Well, his response is better than Rick &quot;I Fuck Goats&quot; Perry after the Deepwater Horizon incident, who said the explosion was an Act of God.

Well, Wall Street has pretty well absorbed the SEC, so...
Steen&#039;s syrup and Zataran&#039;s crab boil libel!!
Unfortunately, the awful part of Louisiana is the South Arkansas part. The Gulf Coast (what&#039;s left of it) is all pretty fantastic.
He may believe in climate science, but I&#039;ll bet he still votes for Keystone XL.
Also, take a look at this for a comparison of LA&#039;s road signs&#039; depiction of the state&#039;s shape vs. the actual current shape <a href="http:// <a href="http://.https://medium.com/matter/louisiana..."" target="_blank">.https://medium.com/matter/louisiana..."</a> target="_blank"> <a href="http://.https://" rel="nofollow noopener" title="medium.com/matter/louisiana-loses-its-boot-b55b3bd52d1e">medium.com/matter/louisiana..." target="_blank">.https://" rel="nofollow noopener" title="medium.com/matter/louisiana-loses-its-boot-b55b3bd52d1e">medium.com/matter/louisiana...
Great minds, etc.
Maybe they pronounce &quot;observe&quot; funny down there.
That&#039;s OK -- so long as it doesn&#039;t stay risen for more than four hours.
Are there enough hills in Louisiana to make this a plan?
Depends on how fast you&#039;re pumping out your aquifer.
I wonder <i>just how many</i> agencies this guy&#039;s been called on to absorb?
That&#039;s a lot for a republican to admit to. I mean Bill O&#039;Reilly is still trying to figure out how tides work.
When it comes to Louisiana, the ocean can&#039;t rise high enough.

Well, look--it was either we elect him, or the convicted felon. In this case, the whole &quot;devil you know&quot; argument is crap.
