Thanks for the info on Fox and CNN carrying it. I am off to do my errands in a bit so I can watch it. Can’t wait!
This is from the guardian, one of the most liberal rags on the planet......they ain't "pushing" Perry....
All together now: “People breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide; plants breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. People breathe in oxygen - - - “
Even a moron like Algore should be able to get his little mind around that!
Too bad Perry has been such an open-border
PerryCARE-supporting, Rove-derived,
Gore-befriended,poser.
No thanks. No RINOs.
Fortunately, Republicans didn’t reject Ronald Reagan because he was a former Democrat...and a union president, for good measure.
Only fossils don’t change.
He has said several times that there is no scientific consensus on the issue.
On September 7, 2007 Perry gave a speech to California Republicans. He said, "Virtually every day another scientist leaves the global warming bandwagon. ... But you won't read about that in the press because they have already invested in one side of the story."
The approach/attitude any candidates have towards government efforts to control climate change ranks very high on my list of what I want in a candidate.
I want to see open disdain shown towards the AGW proponents, their fake science and their followers. Good job Perry, I’m liking it so far.
If all of the candidates show basically the same ideas towards the economy (cut taxes, cut and balance the budget) this issue would push me towards him. He might do the exact same thing on the economy as all of the others, but he might actually gut the EPA and even be open to eliminating it entirely.
Ha ha! I love Sarah, but that right there is funny, and highly likely to be true.
“Rick Perry was Al Gore’s Campaign Manager in 1988”
True enough, but at the time, there was no Republican Party worthy of the name in Texas, and both Perry and Gore were considered extremely right wing Democrats. Times are different now; the parties have shifted away from the center, Gore has descended into charlatanry, and Perry could not stick to conservative principles while remaining in the Democratic Party. Churchill and Reagan both did much the same thing. This man gives even the most ardent Freeper 90% of his heart’s desire in a politician, while being extremely well positioned to beat Obama. We can hold his feet to the fire on immigration well enough after he kicks the socialist out. Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the very good.
Perry is definitely “walking the walk”.
His AG is suing the Federal Gov over this.
And here is more:
Perry environmental stance would transform EPA
“As governor of Texas, Rick Perry has argued that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has strangled business and interfered with state environmental efforts, and he has championed a half-dozen lawsuits challenging federal air pollution and greenhouse gas regulations.
The dispute with the EPA serves as a proxy for larger Perry arguments about states’ rights versus federal power. It “illustrates how Washington’s command-and-control environmental bureaucracy is destroying federalism and individuals’ ability to make their own economic decisions,” Perry wrote in his book “Fed Up! “
From his rhetoric and record as governor, one might think that he’d be tempted to dissolve the agency. He has actively loosened regulations in the name of economic development and denied that scientific consensus exists on climate change, ascribing anxieties about greenhouse gases to a “secular carbon cult.”
Note all this, as governore, BEFORE he gave any thought to running for president.
bump.
Here is a Wiki post that can be a lead in to a lot of jokes:
Algor mortis (Latin: algor—cold(ness); mortis—of death) is the reduction in body temperature following death. This is generally a steady decline until matching ambient temperature, although external factors can have a significant influence.
A measured rectal temperature can give some indication of the time of death. Although the heat conduction which leads to body cooling follows an exponential decay curve, it can be approximated as a linear process: 2° Celsius during the first hour and 1° Celsius per hour until the body nears ambient temperature.
The Glaister equation[1][2] estimates the hours elapsed since death as a linear function of the rectal temperature:
(36.9 °C - [rectal temperature in Celsius]) ×1.2
As decomposition occurs the internal body temperature tends to rise again.
"apparently you didn't read it"
You, a stranger on a high horse, have no idea what I did or didn't read.
Here it is again:
"Perry served as Al Gore's Texas campaign chair in the 1988 presidential race, just before switching his party allegiance from Democrat to Republican"
EPA and DEA. Did Nixon dislike anything that ended in an A?
