Wow! They gotta lay off of those drugs.
‘Belief in Fantasy’, along with suicidal and homicidal tendencies should be on the label, too

Reading the Times is like being in the Night of the Living Dead.

Horror story after horror story, they try to put America in the worst light ever.

I stopped reading the propaganda.

These people are full of thselves. They have an inflated sense of impact on the universe, and it so stuffs them with fear and hatred that they cannot begin to be of service to others. They need to knock it off and get a life, because the rest of the world is moving along just fine without their whining.

No such thing as “fossil fuels.”

Well; Doomers will be Doomers. Let them wallow in their salty tear-soak bed as they pop a handful of anti-anxiety pill daily.

and hear the lamentations of the women

I recall the original Khan quote had him doing more to the women than just hearing their lamentations...

This poor woman can blame (1) the Left, (2) the Left’s public megaphone - the media, (3) the 24/7/365 selling of the hate-Trump filled agenda of the Left mounted on hoaxes and lies, (4) the drum beat of the Deomocrats working up a mantra on the lies told by the media for the Left, until (5) the brains of the sheeple are made to feel only fear and despair. None of that is Trump’s fault.

I know the very thing the author is writing about. It was the Fall of ‘85, and my Cardinals lost the series to George Brett and the Royals. Man, did it hurt. Especially after the crazy call at first base.

Their grief is just another word for their insanity. Do they really think Trump is so powerful that he can warm the planet and cause hurricanes?

The young activist Greta Thunberg,...has described falling into a deep depression after grasping the ramifications of climate change and the utter refusal of people in power to rise to the occasion...

Poor little Greta... had she lived 60 years ago she could have cried for all the dead birds.. all birds became extinct because pesticides made their eggs so fragile they break under the weight of the mother bird. Yep, no birds in our world... Little Greta and Michelle Goldberg can look them up in books... they were feathered things that could fly...

Had Greta lived 50 years ago adults didn't do anything about global cooling and peak oil. Yep, we ran out of oil and most of us froze to death..

African bees were next... they not only killed people and livestock, but they didn't pollinate crops well - again massive starvation...

Poor little Greta - poor little Michelle Goldberg... We were all going to starve to death back then too - over population. It was called the "Population Bomb" and millions of us starved to death. We were told our natural resources were running out and would be gone by the 1980's... The Adults didn't care then either...

Guess then - like now - most grown ups were smarter than the idiot hysterical pearl clutchers of their times. AND this global warming BS will be the same and go the way of the Do Do birds... (that one is true DoDo birds are extinct) Hopefully someday the DoDo people will become extinct too...

I have always notice, sometimes a bit embarassed, that when the Democrats have held the Presidency, there are some Freepers who moan and groan about the end of The Republic, etc, etc.. I have always kind of shrugged that off, and in fact, I had believed somewhat that perhaps that is a part of the Conservative mindset, that an conspiratorial thinking, I would say to myself, well yeah I guess us conservatives can be a little whacky...

BUT MY GOODNESS, the Left has gone absolutely INSANE. I have been enjoying this waaaaay to much, because I am starting to think that this is potentially a bad thing.. This much crazy, in so many people, can be dangerous.. I dont know a single liberal who isnt a little crazy right now, and I include my family, whom I consider the smartest types of Libs. They have lost grip.. I am rambling, because the more I think of it, the more it begins to bother me.

Funny, no one cared about how we felt when Obamao won 2 terms. In fact, that idiot even threw his win in our faces. Then, we ‘re called deplorables. And we’re supposed to care what the communists on the left are going through? Nagger PLEASE....
