Shockingly, DelmarvaNow! fails to mention Donna is a Democrat. I guess they don’t want people to think Democrats are complete idiots
Maryland congresswoman Donna Edwards plans to plunge into the chilly waters of the Potomac River to urge the U.S. Congress to take action to deal with climate change.
Edwards spokesman Dan Weber says Edwards also jumped into the river last year to draw attention to the issue.
Yeah, nothing like jumping into….roughly 38.5 degrees Fahrenheit water (using the Washington, D.C. gauge data for 1/21/12)Â to protest globull warming. Then wrapping oneself with blankets made mostly with coal provided energy, then jumping in a fossil fueled vehicle to add more warmth.
The real question is: “after she takes the plunge, is she planning on coming back up?”
I’ve been in water that cold. I have no idea how someone’s limbs actually work.
Was going surfing one morning, we knew it would be cold, a Nor’easter had dug up cold water from the depths during July, but damn, was like 38. Thought my hands would fall off when I went to wax my board down in the water. Went home, back to sleep.
