“Debate is silly.”

What debate? It’s either submit or die.

I’m sure Fox is ready to give up all the revenue it gets from Home Depot.

Robert Greenwald needs to watch FOX News more often. There are so many “manmade global warming” PSAs with lots of scared children on that sometimes you feel like you’re listening to NPR :)

I just bought 10 sheets of Birch plywood from Home Depot today and it was all made in China. Who owes who these fictitious “Carbon Credits” now?

In other words: How dare FNC allow an actual balanced debate on this issue.

Let’s supply a little game theory for The Home Depot.

Practically everything that The Home Depot sells adds CO2 to the Earth’s atmosphere, in its production, shipping, and/or use.

People who don’t believe in the AGW scare, don’t worry about this, and may shop there.

People who are believers, will not shop there (unless they are stupid or dishonest).

Obviously The Home Depot’s best strategy is to advertise to those who are more likely to be possible customers.

Greenwald - Tell Home Depot to stop supporting global warming lies.

But they aren't supporting the lies ... well the lies of the Greenies and AlGore that is!

This is another case of far left foundations like Soros, Pew, Carnegie, Rockaller and ACLU going after corporations in this country that won’t bow to their liberal ideas.

There should be an investigation into these foundations to see how and what they spend foundation monies on.

“Gullible Warmers” are silly. And when they gathered together, lemming-like, for Live Earth, they were “Gullible Swarmers.”

Is it just me or are these people getting more and more shrill. They seem to be showing their cards, their underlying psychopathy, more and more. There is a desperate quality about them.

RFK JR wants to put us up for treason and a firing squad, Gore’s people want to shut up Fox, the fairness doctrine is being dusted off,,there is an intolerance of opposing views that is kind of scary.

When FNC ran a “we’re all going to die!” global warming scare piece last year or the year before, Ailes wouldn’t even allow an opposing view to counter the broadcast. He said the issue was “too important” to muddle with debate. So, Greenwald is out of his mind as usual. His crusade against FNC is actually becoming a bit sad.
