Well that's an unkind comparison.
I'm just not sure if it's unkind to ISIS or Pruitt.

Definitely unkind to ISIS.
We went through a pale shadow of this a decade ago in Canada. It wasn't good, and we're still suffering from the consequences - but nothing we had to follow went this far.

I'd like to see these guys spend a few years here in the Heart of Texas as a blue collar worker and try to say that climate change isn't real.

Please, they're never going to do something as dirty as blue collar work. They're white collar criminals business people.

We can daydream, at least, about putting them on a chain gang. "What we have here, Pruitt, is a failure to communicate."

Honestly, at the rate things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if it was guillotines instead of chain gangs.
