Priceless: Environmental activists "freak out" over extremely cold temperatures during global warming hoax event

Cold weather on Potomac gives activists right platform
Dozens of people who took a dip in the Potomac River on Saturday to oppose global warming and support cold winters seemed to be having things their way in temperature terms, at least for a day.

Saturday's low temperature in Washington was the lowest in more than 11 months. The day's average temperature at Reagan National Airport was also the lowest in more than 11 months. It was a decisively cold winter day.
...
A few hours after the mercury fell to 17 on Saturday morning, the Chesapeake Climate Action Network was conducting a "polar bear plunge."

This was an immersion in the Potomac, in swim gear, at the National Harbor development in Prince George's County.

Sponsors billed the plunge as an effort intended to call attention to climate change. One of the event's slogans was "Keep Winter Cold!"
...
"For me it wasn't that bad," environmental activist Greg Drury said of the river dip. "Everybody else was freaking out."
