They don’t need to understand what the rest of America thinks. They need to defeated. They need to lose their jobs and work in the private sector. Only then will they understand.

Reminds me of when I attended a Bible believing church in the wealthy suburb of Lexington Mass. One or two times a year a professed born again degenerate would give his witness from the pulpit.

“Yes I murdered ten families and injected heroin randomly in children… I was at my lowest…

My guess the guest was on “the circuit” nationwide. Probably gave the pastor preaching points. Toss in a few Wednesdays and temples and it’s easy to imagine a couple hundred grand income.

Multiple degrees, former Democrat. Mea culpa.

Of course, quiet repentance is definitely a good course for my kind— although I thought perhaps these stains could be overlooked for a while—to allow this post.

I get you. There sure is another way to look at it. I guess when it comes down one-to-one I'm inclined to be a bit more humble.

Thanks for the reminder, patriot.

I'm a multi-degree former Democrat.

Sorry, but an "Associate of Arts" degree in "Grievance Studies" and a "Bachelor of Arts" in "Intersectionality Studies" just doesn't cut it!

Regards,

It probably is being taught with the shark as an allegory for manmade climate change.

No, in the movie, the shark was real!

"Anthropogenic Climate Change," in contrast, is a fig newton of their imagination.

Climate change quotes not often heard in media: Dec 1, 2014
Hunger Game B$!

Regarding the Nov. 28 column, “Religion and the coming environmental storms:” Here are a few quotes not often found in mainstream media from some experts on the global warming agenda.

— “The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself.” — Club of Rome, premier environmental think-tank, consultants to the United Nations.

— “We need to get some broad based support, to capture the public’s imagination… So we have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements and make little mention of any doubts… Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest.” – Prof. Stephen Schneider, Stanford Professor of Climatology, lead author of many IPCC reports.

— “We’ve got to ride this global warming issue. Even if the theory of global warming is wrong, we will be doing the right thing in terms of economic and environmental policy.” – Timothy Wirth, president of the UN Foundation.

— “No matter if the science of global warming is all phony. … climate change provides the greatest opportunity to bring about justice and equality in the world.” – Christine Stewart, former Canadian Minister of the Environment

— “The data doesn’t matter. We’re not basing our recommendations on the data. We’re basing them on the climate models.” – Professor Chris Folland, Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction and Research.

— “The models are convenient fictions that provide something very useful.” – Dr David Frame, climate modeler, Oxford University.

— “It doesn’t matter what is true, it only matters what people believe is true.” – Paul Watson, co-founder of Greenpeace.

I moved up to the hills of Appalachia and now have many friends whose families moved here in 1700s. We have become good friends and have so much fun together.

We laugh we tease we share we work. Every day I see God here. I hear God in the wind. There is evidence of God every where.

I never experienced this in the city.

My cup runneth over!

It was mildly suggested to them once, their response was to barricade with fences, concertina wire, and the National Guard.

You're the problem. Not them.

And I also believe it gives them great pleasure to see others suffer due to the power they yield, and they also enjoy flaunting their ability to have and do things that the average American can't.

Their greatest pleasure isn't the stealing and corruption. It's forcing you to accept their lies and repeat their lies, all while knowing full well that it's exactly the opposite of the truth.

It's the overthrow of God in microcosm.

I’m a Appalachian guy also. Usually I say “mountains” for my area. Lots of vertical in my neighborhood.

My post about the “Hunger Games” is really about the sense that these mountains are so remote, politically and culturally from the Capitol.

No, they could not and would not see.

They are willfully blind.

Oh, so you don't care if that Kintner kid spills out all over the dock?

I thought The Starving Games was a better movie.

Could we show them? If we showed them, could they see?

They would see themselves as the heroes and the grotesque displays of abundance as unique to Republicans and GOP-affiliated billionaires, and having absolutely nothing to do with Democrats and their own affiliated billionaires.

Hunger is good for America.

It prevents diabetes and obesity.

We fought against royalty and replaced it with Congress.

Kids in the ‘hood be chubby.
Even though they “go to bed hungry every night”
