Lesbian Ex-Mayor Has Perfect Response To Ann Coulter's Hurricane Nonsense

Did this get posted? I didn't see it here.

The controversial right-wing pundit got put in her place after a comment about Harvey’s devastation on Houston.

Another day, another perfect response to Ann Coulter’s nonsensical comments.

Days after the controversial right-wing media pundit said it was more “credible” to blame Hurricane Harvey’s devastation on the city’s election of a gay mayor than climate change, the official in question hit back with a succinct yet effective response:

@AnnCoulter
I don't believe Hurricane Harvey is God's punishment for Houston electing a lesbian mayor. But that is more credible than "climate change."

@AnniseParker
Darn it, I thought no one knew I had a super power over weather.

Annise Parker, who is currently teaching at Rice University, served as mayor of Houston from 2010 to 2016. She was one of the first openly gay mayors of a major U.S. city.

After Parker tweeted her response on Sunday, her followers had some fun with her reaction, putting in climate-related requests for the political official whose sexual orientation Coulter believes to control weather patterns.

Go read the responses! THey are hysterical. I can't figure out how to post the tweets...can anyone else? See the animated video that someone did. Fantastic!
