Global Warming Will Save America from the Right...Eventually

Say what you will about the looming catastrophe facing the world as the pace of global heating and polar melting accelerates. There is a silver lining.

Look at a map of the US.

The area that will by completely inundated by the rising ocean—and not in a century but in the lifetime of my two cats—are the American southeast, including the most populated area of Texas, almost all of Florida, most of Louisiana, and half of Alabama and Mississippi, as well as goodly portions of eastern Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. While the northeast will also see some coastal flooding, its geography is such that that aside from a few projecting sandbars like Long Island and Cape Cod, the land rises fairly quickly to well above sea level. Sure, Boston, New York and Philadelphia will be threatened, but these are geographically confined areas that could lend themselves to protection by Dutch-style dikes. The West Coast too tends to rise rapidly to well above sea level in most places. Only down in Southern California towards the San Diego area is the ground closer to sea level.

So what we see is that huge swaths of conservative America are set to face a biblical deluge in a few more presidential cycles.

Then there’s the matter of the Midwest, which climate experts say is likely to face a permanent condition of unprecedented drought, making the place largely unlivable, and certainly unfarmable. The agribusinesses and conservative farmers that have been growing corn and wheat may be able to stretch out this doomsday scenario by deep well drilling, but west of the Mississippi, the vast Ogallala Aquifer that has allowed for such irrigation is already being tapped out. It will not be replaced.

So again, we will see the decline and depopulation...

Let's see... who would be hit harder by a disruption in the food supply - people who live where the food is grown, or those packed into enormous cities somewhere else?

This is patheticly weak reasoning even for a leftist.

You should check for animated graphics posted by potlatch

She also just got some more new graphics toys and software

I use a dinky circa 2000 WebTV Plus receiver made by RCA with no hard drive and it does not use graphics software - I use online internet image manipulation websites and kinda bend the traditional methods to get results I would say are mostly like a 10-15 second TV ad

I never use a PC or PhotoShop or any other software programs

My webpages are much the same - a different style and design than a PC user would have learned

The important ingredient is to always use irrefutable actual events &/or persons and attempt to get a message across in ways that someone will recogize and recall and be able to upload and use in emails or webpages or newsites

Occassionally evensome on DU will also remark a parody graphic whacking libs is to funny to ignore

My borders/illegals .gifs do not aim at the lefties only

My very liberal sister in NYC is 100% against the borders/illegals BS that 83% of Americans are against
