According to today's Charleston Gazette-Mail, Rupie Phillips, a Democrat from Logan County passed out sun screen yesterday to fellow legislators to help protect them from global warming:
Democratic Delegate Rupie Phillips passed around the bottles of sunscreen Thursday.
The lawmaker from coal-producing Logan County told his colleagues on the House floor, “I worry about you. You’ve got global warming going on. It’s not cold outside. It’s in your mind.”
Phillips said he was going to get everyone a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses, but they are “a little expensive.”
