Damn shame they are trying to fix global warming, there goes the ice free northern passage.:rolleyes:

Global warming? Right, the same guy that invented the internet discovered that.:rolleyes: There are way too many respected scientists that say it's hogwash, and none with any proof that it is indeed a problem. The government (both sides) uses fear as a tool. Do you "really" beleive that Co2 is a pollutant?:confused:

Consensus in the scientific community runs great than 95 to 1, you need a better argument.

U.S. National Academy of Sciences not good enough for you?

Even the Bush Boy White House had to admit they are, "the gold standard of objective scientific assessment."

I did read the link, and if it's 95 to 1, you need to come up with 3600 scientists.:rolleyes:

It is your link and it shows 3 scientists that have a similar view to the one you expressed.

My first thought would be to say,
Dude? What are you talking about? Why are cons always so angry? You people are the biggest bunch of self hating, whiny, "poor me" ball babies the world has ever seen. I can't imagine wasting my life being so miserable. Get over yourselves.

Instead I'll just ask,
Would anyone disagree that Palin got thousands upon thousands of votes from people who had not a clue about the goings on in the world? :D


disclaimer: I do not believe people who tend to support an agenda that is right of center are angry, self hating, whinny or ball babies. I further do not believe that thousands upon thousands of votes had not a clue because they voted for Palin. These two statement are simply used to illustrate how partisan rhetorical commentary can be very hypocritical.

I fixed that for you :eek::D

I hope you understood my post. Your corrective disclaimer is how that statement was originally posted. It was reused by me (switching parties) to show how inappropriate it was, especially if one is going to make broad unsubstantiated statements.

Again, I did not mean those two statements as a matter of fact but rather as a representation of another issue, divisive rhetoric. Both sides do it, both sides are wrong.

Here are the original posts.
