The huge West Antarctic ice sheet is slowly collapsing, and two groups of scientists say the melting is now an unstoppable event. <\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%;\">Yes, so what?

This is not accurate. It was actually built on wetlands and Washington has an extensive system to keep it dry. The highest point in Washington is only 409 feet above sea level.

Of course, the answer from the Union of Concerned Moonbats is not what you might call economically friendly.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%;\"><i>Ekwurzel, of the Union of Concerned Scientists, says the relatively narrow area of the Potomac River gives reason for hope in preserving the Old Town and National Mall landmarks: &#8220;This is an area where we could think of temporary structures that might inflate, or engineering structures that might move and close off the storm surge.&#8221; <\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0in; line-height: 100%;\">Washington DC is not unlike New Orleans. It is a city that is doomed to be flooded out. If it wasn\u2019t for the intervention of people, that area would already be underwater. What the Moonbats want is to waste huge amounts of money and institute a totalitarian government \u201cFor our own good.\u201d What they fail to understand is that people don\u2019t believe them when they scream \u201cTHE EARTH IS GOING TO BURN AND WE\u2019RE ALL GOING TO DIE!\u201d To many people have spent hours digging out from the massive snow storms and paying huge heating bills.
