In a transcript of his Tuesday radio show, Limbaugh repeatedly complained about the stores in Palm Beach ― where he lives and broadcasts from ― being out of water despite the uncertainty of the storm’s path.
Limbaugh also claimed the storm was being used to push an environmental agenda. He said, “People in all of these government areas” are “hell-bent” on proving climate change.
“You can accomplish a lot just by creating fear and panic,” he said. “You don’t need a hurricane to hit anywhere. All you need is to create the fear and panic accompanied by talk that climate change is causing hurricanes to become more frequent and bigger and more dangerous, and you create the panic, and it’s mission accomplished, agenda advanced.”
By the way, 70% of Palm Beach County still doesn't have power and the Keys are fucked.
Its stupid to go out and empty out bottled water when you can fill up containers at the house...its not like Florida's water supply was contaminated before the storm hit. And its stupid to have people freaked out and evacuating when a storm is 10 days out...it doesn't help anything including the response when the storm gets closer.
All that quote says is that people create hysteria without hurricanes and with hurricanes to try and advance a political agenda, and if you hadn't seen all the recent BS trying to relate Irma and Harvey to global warming then you are blind...
Feel free to address the part about not needing the hurricanes to hit anywhere. This is the first time ever that two CAT 4 storms have hit the US in the same year.
If media was over hyping Irma then where should you get more accurate information? Limbaugh should say don't listen to the media go to the source: hurricane prediction models, NWS and NOAA...etc. He can't say this though because he probably shits all over these agencies about climate change.
If the keys didn't get fucked Limbaugh would probably be crowing about how the experts got it wrong and he was right all along.
The record in consecutive hits to the US of major was in 1933, when 2 major hurricanes hit 23 hours apart. We have had a 12 year lull in the US between major hurricanes hitting, the longest of recorded history (something like 150+ years). The last 40 years have been some of the quietest on record for hurricanes.
But continue on...
