Who in their right mind would want a high elected office?

You hit the nail on the head!

About a year ago I asked one of my offspring why there weren’t young people entering politics. The immediate response was: “The press is so rabid! No one in my generation could pass the digging; everyone has tried drugs at least once, had sex in high school or college, or done other stupid stuff. They would be torn apart!”

And this from my ‘conservative’ child who votes Republican! Sobering.

...it is not too late to slow it down and reduce its harmful effects, said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Next to Hillary, of course, Nancy is the Smartest Woman In The World, so we'd better pay close attention and encourage Nancy and her friends to speed things up and put the final nail in the coffin of America!

How blessed we are to have such fine politicians who believe that whatever America had amounted to was due to the dilligent efforts on by the liberal pansies who have served as traitors and have legislated our nation to utter ruin.

They haven't a clue that what led to America's ascension as the #1 power was the labor and intelligence of the poor American taxpayer who thought big ideas and paid big bucks into a now bankrupt federal treasury.

Down with the leftist traitors who have driven this country into a cesspool with their mountains of legislation and the creation of millions of government jobs!

“The new scientific report on global warming warns that global warming is already affecting the earth...”

God is having fun ridiculing these lying socialists. Witness the record cold over much of the country this past weekend.

Didn’t the idiot Pelosi get the latest memo? This gross mythology is now to be termed climate-CHANGE; a no-lose nomenclature because that is what climate DOES. It would be like saying, we have a heart-beat or a lung-breathe problem.

“”We must base our actions on the moral imperative and the scientific record, free of political interference in scientists’ assessments of the effects of climate change on society and the environment,” Pelosi said.”

I am still wondering how raising the taxes of all working Americans is going to change how the sun shines on this earth.

Someone help me here. Anyone? Bueller?

"One would think that if CO2 had such critical control over climate that the relative abundance of CO2 in the atmosphere would be in lock step with global temperature. "

It is exactly because CO2 is about .036% of the atmosphere that the socialists pick it as pollutant. The small amount is easier to affect. Likewise with their second most deadly pollutant, methane at 0.00017%. Same with ozone, the original deadliest pollutant and least abundant.

Global warming is already underway, but it is not too late to slow it down and reduce its harmful effects, said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

One of our prominent national morons...

D'OH!

Of course global warming is under way; the same as it has been dozens of times in the last 18,000 years.
What new and different this time? Aside from the political idiocy, that is...

I’m freezing here. I wish this global warming would go ahead and start already.

I'm with you. I live in Northwestern PA, and we haven't had a day above freezing since last Wednesday. It's snowed with accumulation every day and night. This Easter morning, I shoveled a half a foot of snow. If Al Gore was standing next to me this morning, the imprint of his fat mug would have been on my shovel.

If its already under way, what's the point in stopping it? It would be less expensive to adjust to the inevitability of climate change, which is after all natural behavior man has little or no control over.

"Poor people around the world are especially vulnerable to the hazards of climate change."

Follow the money...liberal socialists get rich by "helping" poor people.

Pelosi: Global Warming Already Underway

You'd think that, as Speaker of the House, she could at least afford a subscription to a newspaper that prints current falsehoods, NOT outdated, overspun falsehoods.

It does seem as though the truly stupid have risen to the top though, doesn’t it? Even I recall a time when there were at least a handful of intelligent statesmen and intellectuals with some horse sense who could at least be heard. Today they are silenced, or ignored.

Ayn Rand basically predicted this in "Atlas Shrugged". She wrote the blueprint that the Dems and sheeple are following . . . . . virtually chapter by chapter.

Another “environmental expert” heard from. I’ve heard more credible claims from drunks in the men’s room of a cheap dive.

MUST re-read - thank you for reminding me. Love your tagline. Sadly it says it all.

Global warming is about taxes and nothing more. Except there is a likelyhood that the tax will be a world tax (a violation of US Sovergnity) imposed upon Americans and administered by the United Nothings. The tax, allegedly assisting the poor because of the extra alleged hardship imposed upon them, will do absolutely nothing to solve any climate problems.

The biggest scam here is that mankind cannot control the weather. He may be able to locally change climate trends. But overall the world climate is related to natural forces like the sun, volcanos, and other forces of nature.
Our local weaher forcast is rarely accurate beyond 5 days and even then there is a margin of error on temperature predictions by 2 to 5 degrees. How can anyone predict the climate in 10 to 20 years when the margin of error in the 5 day forcast is significant?

Climate change is about control of industrial economys and their use of resources that deny poor countries the opportunity to develop. Allegedly, even if they had the will to do better, most of the undeveloped world will never catch up because of corruption and conflict.

I like your phrase “Green Socialsim”. Scaring people into compliance because nobody wants a polluted, unlivable world is more dangerous than the Bolshevic Revolution was to communism.

Absolutely, this is both a religious and a scientific issue, but more so Political science.

Professor Herman adds reason to the debate:

After reading all sorts of statements from a wide range of scientists during the past few months, I am totally surprised at how knowledge and expertise must have been accumulated during this time period. I refer to predictions that most, or all warming during the past 50-100 years is due to greenhouse gases with 90% certainty. I had always been told that the models being used had considerable uncertainty so that I wonder how this degree of certainty has now been achieved.

I am, myself, not a climate expert, but rather a scientist who has spent most of his career working on problems of atmospheric radiation science and remote sensing, I have been reluctant to speak out on the climate change subject. However, I think I have to at this time. The recent IPCC summary report has just informed me, and the rest of the world, that there is little doubt but that the global warming we are experienced is due to greenhouse gas emissions into our atmosphere. That conclusion was really surprising to me, it having come from a worldwide group of supposedly outstanding climate experts.

Money Quote..............

The pollution of our atmosphere with man made gases is not good. For that reason it should be stopped. However, it is also not proper to make predictions to the general public that is subject to so much uncertainty. The arguments against further pollution can stand on their own.
