Climate change caused the Oklahoma tornado? Crikey, these people are getting desperate!

Telegraph
"For Senator Boxer to try to exploit this misery and tragedy in order to foist on the American people yet another tax they don't want and don't need is politics of the lowest and most dishonest kind. Let's be clear. There is no scientific evidence whatsoever that the Oklahoma tornado was anything other than a natural event of the kind that has plagued Tornado Alley since time immemorial. Tornadoes were ripping up and down that part of the Great Plains long before it was settled by humans and will continue to do so long after those humans have vanished. As Roy Spencer noted last year, the severity of tornadoes in recent years has been decreasing NOT increasing. The same is true of hurricanes. But of course that was never going to stop one or two alarmist opportunists – among them New York's Mayor Bloomberg and a Democrat senator called Barbara Boxer (now where have we heard her name before?) trying to pin last year's devastating Hurricane Sandy on their old friend "extreme weather" – aka "climate change."
