Chris vs. Dino: The Deuce—the Environment

There are 12 weeks until Election Day, and 12 issues in our state's gubernatorial race (13 if you count Eastern Washington's concerns). Each week we'll be taking an award-winning look at where the candidates stand.

Rossi: His detractors claim that he's a Bush model global warming denier. Well Mr. Rossi, if there's no such thing as climate change, how do you explain the crap weather we've been getting the last few years?

He's probably one of those jerk-store Northwest weather apologists that we can't stand. Look, the recent summers up here have been awful. This year we were cold into June, had four weeks of glorious sunshine, and since July 21st it's been cloudy for a few days, sunny for less, then repeat, repeat, repeat.

Was it always this miserable in the summer, Mr. Rossi? Was it…ANSWER ME!!! What's that?...Oh, we need to calm down? That's bull, we paid for these drinks, we can say what we want…Fine, we were about to leave anyway.

Sorry about that, [ahem] Rossi claims that he is in fact more eco-friendly than Gregoire, pointing to all the stuff he said in this PI article.

Gregoire: She is endorsed by the Sierra Club's Cascade Chapter and their subsidiary, the Washington Asphalt Paving Association.

On a related note, get out the vote side this weekend because it's going to be f bomb-ing beautiful, then the rain and mid-sixties return all week. What's that?…No, you're the one who is obsessed.

Next Week: Armed Robbery.
