		<description>I&#039;m having trouble with all of this cap and trade thing. I don&#039;t believe that Al and his friends are true socialists. They&#039;re smart enough (just) to understand that socialism doesn&#039;t work, because the economy it produces is weak and poor. Al and his friends want a wealthy economy, because a wealthy one can be taxed heavily, and that gives them lots of money to do *GOOD THINGS* like destroy the environment while trying to save it, and creating poor people to feed, so that they feel good about themselves.

I&#039;ve come to the conclusion they don&#039;t understand how things work, and are just lame-brained in their actions and the consequences. Barney Frank, Chris Dodd et al certainly helped create the mortgage crisis, but they clearly don&#039;t understand what happened, or why it&#039;s a problem. The only thing they know is that the economy crashed, and they regard that similarly to the weather (only George W. Bush could be blamed for a hurricane, certainly not Democrats). So now Frank has been making noises to the effect that Fannie and Freddie should be returning their lending practices to 2007 levels, in spite of the fact that those were what got us in trouble in the first place. Al and his friends want to do Cap and Trade (sounds like a vaudeville team, doesn&#039;t it?) and put the coal industry out of business. Obama said openly (but in San Francisco, not West Virginia) that his Cap and Trade scheme would put coal-burning power plants out of business, with cripplingly expensive taxes. We elected him anyway, and he did what he said he&#039;s going to do...put half of America&#039;s electric power generating plants out of business. I seriously doubt he understands what that means: he probably thinks that it&#039;ll be good for the economy (think of all those taxes we&#039;ll be collecting! Right up until they all go out of business, and then we&#039;ll collect...oh, never mind) and for the environment, as if we can just change over our power generation grid right now, and mandate solar panels on everyone&#039;s house. Does everyone have the tens of thousands of dollars needed to pay for the new panels? What, you&#039;re already broke? Well, the stimulus bill will spend tax dollars from future years right now, to pay...well, OK, we don&#039;t have the money...Another stimulus anyone?</description>

		<description>Environmentalism is a religion. Ecology is a science. Environmentalism is a false God. Serious Christians and Jews should take a look at the 10 commandments. Al Gore is a Jesus School drop out. When you drop out of a school that has one textbook I think you have proved yourself mentally deficient for serious work. I do not get my Climatology from a Jesus school dropout, Mr. Gore.
BTW when some greenie starts talking about their 120 year meteorological record, I reply that my time line is 2 million years. 80% of the time in the last 2 mill. years,Minnesota, where I live, has been under the Ice. The Ice retreated most recently was about 13,000 ya. The post-glacial climate Maximum was 6,000 ya. At that time Minnesota had a climate a lot like west Texas and the prairie reached into north Ontario and east toward the Alleghanies.
There is more to life than lying to people to get political power.</description>

		<description>Anyone with at least 1/4 of a brain who lived thru the brief &quot;global freezing&quot; scare of the early &#039;70s which quietly flubbed as all its predictions were far more than just wrong, knows that the current global warming scare -- originally justified by models created BY THE SAME GLOBAL FREEZING CHARLATANS -- is just as much hooey as the first attempt of these 4th rate scientists to achieve name recognition and income from engagements to speak to crowds of ignoramuses and retards. All the data shows -- repeat ALL the available historic data, bar none -- that although CO2 and atmospheric temperature are correlated, it is WITHOUT EXCEPTION the case that atmospheric temperature changes first, THEN much later the co2 level rises. It rises because of evaporation of co2 dissolved in the sea, more of which enters the atmosphere when surface sea temperatures are warmed. This is true for the data Gore shows in his famous &quot;documendacity,&quot; which he intentionally squeezes into a long time scale over a small chart so that the detail is obscured, since it shows the precise opposite cause &amp; effect that he knows is the correct one in reality. The atmosphere has been far warmer in the past than now, and it has had at times at least 20 times the co2 concentration as at present. And... those times were wonderful times when plant and animal &quot;biodiversity&quot; flourished, as any botanist would tell you is the natural consequence of a little warming. That&#039;s why life is easier in the warmer latitudes and terribly harsh in the northerly ones. We should PRAY (if religious) for global warming because it would go a long way toward ending world hunger, expanding the rain forests, increasing biodiversity and making this planet more of a heaven on earth than it already has the capacity to be. But the advocates of the global warming hoax are just SO incredibly uninformed (or such liars) that they are either unaware of (or hiding) their hypocrisy in advocating a war on non-existent man-caused warming that would, even if correct, accomplish all the other goals they claim to worship. It would be a colossal joke if these neanderthal numbskulls weren&#039;t so populous and endowed with the voting power to destroy the lives of their betters along with their own suicides.
So really if you want to know about Climate Change ask a Geologist and you will get the truth Meteorologists can&#039;t even tell you if it will rain tomorrow or not.</description>

		<description>Man, you ain&#039;t kiddin&#039; on that piety [bit]..

A smaller than handful of others and I had to fight through an email campaign to have People with Disabilities tiered equally with, you got it, Environmentalists over at the BarackObama.com website in the runup to Election 2008.. Environmentalists, Labor, and even Children were given priority under his heading of &lt;i&gt;People&lt;/i&gt;..

Persons with Disabilities..? Pah, under the heading &lt;i&gt;Issues&lt;/i&gt;.. He might as well have used the word &quot;problems&quot;..

Warmest from Talking Rock.. :wink:</description>
