That's a good definition of liberalism: believing that the nuclear reaction (i.e., the sun) that they see every day has less of an impact than their neighbor's Suburban.
And usually it's really because the neighbor can afford the Suburban and the liberal can't.

The Sun is mostly hydrogen and small fluctuations in the amount of energy emitted by the Sun can have a large impact on earth. The Sun will increase in size in about a billion years, before that total solar irradiance will incresase overall brightness, UV wavelengths and magnetic flux.
Aanthropogenically cause of global warming is a political theory and the solar variation theory is more a fact.

Hear, hear!! You're right on the money.
Global warming: just another excuse by the politicians to control our way of life.

"ice melting at unprecedented rates"
Here is the half million year temperature history of the earth temperature based on Oxygen isotopes in the Vostok Ice Cores of Antarctica.
http://www.junkscience.com/MSU_Temps/Vostok_long.htm Contrary to your "unprecedented rates" statement, notice how relatively steady the temperatures have been over the past 10,000 years (right of graph). Then
notice the huge (~12C) swings between hot and cold over 500,000 years. Finally, notice the infrequent and brief periods of warmth. So enjoy the warmth because we are overdue for another frigid period.

the resulting water could raise sea levels worldwide 20 feet," That's a hell of a lot of water. 20ft over the entire globe? Nonsense.

More people demand more food, fuel and shelter from finite resources and create more waste, including the greenhouses gases that are trapped in our atmosphere and are warming the planet. We are depleting the very resources that help regulate the atmosphere and make life livable on this planet: the only planet known to support life. I'm waiting for Ms. Stenley to bravely do her part and reduce the strain on earth's resources by one. Every little bit helps!
