I Expect This Kind Of Logic From My 4-Year-Old, But From A Senator? Not So Much.
In Sen. John Kerry's confirmation hearing for secretary of state, another senator, John Barrasso, used the logic that my 4-year-old uses when he justifies doing something bad. He suggested that we can't put any rules in place to help prevent climate change because China isn't doing anything, which gives them an advantage, somehow, I guess? Kerry, instead of sending him to his room without dessert, calmly explained why that's a horrible idea.
