Hey, remember back in February, when Serr8d used disingenuous graphs to try to argue that melting polar ice wasn’t a problem? And remember how I subsequently pointed out the flaws in his arguments, and noted that the late summer ice levels are what’s important?

So it’s Biden. Interesting. Not surprising, not a bad choice, not a homerun smash either.
