There Are None So Blind As Those Who Will Not See: According to the Random House Dictionary of Popular Proverbs and Sayings this proverb has been traced back to 1546 (John Heywood), and resembles the Biblical verse Jeremiah 5:21 (Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not). In 1738 it was used by Jonathan Swift in his Polite Conversation and is first attested in the United States in the 1713 Works of Thomas Chalkley. The full saying is: There are none so blind as those who will not see. The most deluded people are those who choose to ignore what they already know.

Well alright!
I can barely make ends meet as it is. Another tax, a carbon tax (a tax on everything), would kill me.

A vote for a carbon tax now would be a guaranteed career ender.

I remember when National Geographic used to be a respected magazine, not just another propaganda mouthpiece for the Left.
To: lbryce
Pretty sad to see what was once a respected publication, turn into a bunch of rabid religious bigots.

The economic suffering that has been unleashed on former coal miners and their families by Obama is staggering.
I personally think a huge part of it is due to liberal racism, i.e., that most miners are white and Southern, e.g., folks that the left would dismiss as “rednecks.”
The environmental racism going on here is huge.

This is one of the main reasons I cancelled my subscription to Nat’l Geographic back in the ‘90s. Sick of the Global Warming, Climate Change junk.

Nat Geo has abandoned any claim to being scientifically grounded. It’s a social media rag now.

The hot airheads have to float in limbo for awhile. They are certain to make a lot of noise. The volume of their fear mongering will be deafening at times, but we can take joy in the fact that they are always wrong, and Congress won’t be listening.

Nat Geo has abandoned any claim to being scientifically grounded.My parents used to get it when I was growing up, back in the 1940s. As I recall, it's primary claim to fame was pictures of half-naked women from Africa and Asia. I don't think it ever was scientifically grounded.

As I remember, Smithsonian Magazine has also been politically corrected to go gay.

Well they did have the cover of the Afghan Girl. That was the high point of their existence.
