So, your weather is kind of like it is in....GERMANY?

Now, if that's the point that the Fox News person is attempting to make, albeit poorly stated, then that makes sense to me, just base on my experience here in MI. I've not attempted to Google and see if there's any info out there comparing average hours of sunshine per year by country. Maybe that would be a revealing exercise.
Maybe it would prove to you that you believe everything you hear from the Fox propaganda machine, no matter how absurd? Or, would that be too much to ask?
