"Grace of God or End of the World?"

Or just one more sign of global climate change.

It is a sign from Allah that Progressives have their heads wedged so tightly in their fundament, that they cannot hear the rest of the world laughing at them.

Bush's oil buddies are polluting Gia's air with CO2, which is trapping heat, which is causing our Mother to overheat. Overheating is causing snow and low temperatures and if we don't stop Bush we will see more of this.

I thought we'd begun the "blame Palin" era! Has it ever occurred to the excitable climate change alarmists that some of these arid regions welcome precipitation?

Besides, I am pretty sure the student who shot this video was most pleased that it looked like Chicago or New York. Let him have his fun before blaming the gods or Palin or Bush.

I don't understand why enviro-nuts think they can control it anymore than they can blame it on humanity.. er.. I mean SUV owners. Leftists are the ONLY ones who are benefiting from Global Warming fear tactics. You ride a bike and drive unreliable electric cars while they jet around the world and power their mansions.

We're going to all die eventually.. it would be nice if we could go out with some principles that are based on reality rather than fabricated scientific data.

I made the mistake of watching the pathetic film production called 2012 the other night.. it was astoundingly insulting that the liberals who can defend 51+ million American abortions including barbaric late term procedures and facilitating death at any cost, including voting against treatment for surviving infants of a botched abortion, covering for rape and prostitution, advocate for tax-funding abortions globally, legislate (while denying) death panels, do NOTHING to protect human trafficing across the Mexican border, can believe every Leftist propoganda movie that portrays THEM as the benefactors of life, the heroes who save lives.. while, predictably, it is colonial greed (i.e. white-run private sector) who is the dark force..

In 2012, the entire world was erupting and the ONLY Arabs portrayed were representatives of corporate pay-offs in the escape scene. Pathetic. Truly pathetic. It was the worst thing I'd watched since Avitar - same story, different planet. Boring. Predictable.

How do the liberals allow themselves to be so easily herded? If humanity is the resident evil, then they should welcome global warming! or is it global cooling now? Meh.. nevermind.

How many cow farts were created by last nights T-bone? If we don't stop overheating the planet we will all freeze to death!

The snow has finally melted here. Maybe we'll get more, maybe not. I'm listening to Vivaldi's 4 seasons: Spring. Speaking of spring, it is almost Persian new year. It always starts in the spring. I think we should celebrate New Year's day on the spring equinox. Makes perfect sense to me. Think happy thoughts, people. Think about lambs and puppies and resurrection.

Nice straw man arguments there, RedCarolina, but sadly, there's not a scintilla of fact in your silly screed. I understand that you'd like to believe that anyone to the left of El Rushbo is out to kill their babies, gay-marry their pets, steal your guns and padlock your gas-guzzling SUVs, but these are all hackneyed stereotypes pushed by talk radio con men looking to make a buck off their dumbass listeners. Are you really that much of an obedient sheep?

"If the natural tendencies of mankind are so bad that it is not safe to permit people to be free, how is it that the tendencies of these organizers are always good? Do not the legislators and their appointed agents also belong to the human race? Or do they believe that they themselves are made of a finer clay than the rest of mankind?" -Claude Frédéric Bastiat.
Lou_Sarah This is to what you are arguing.
That some select anointed, by virtue of special beliefs, are fit to decide the what, where, how and when of others' quotidian life.
Such is the hubris of the Proggy Poobahs and their merry myrmidons: Climate change, ObamaCare, gun control, Government Motors and uncivil debate a la Wisconsin et al.

If by "select anointed" you mean people of science who've actually spent their careers studying the problem of climate change, the answer is yes. I'll certainly listen to those "poobahs" who actually know what they're talking about before I'll obediently regurgitate the uninformed rantings of an arrogant talk show host.

Yes those very scientists that live and die by grants handed out by the politicians. Failure to get those grants means one does not have favor with the Professorial Community, soon to find ostracism for meals in the Faculty Lounge. "Poor soul, she just can't get the nub of it, she needs to agree with us."

Publish or Perish revolves about those grants. The universities rely on those to boast about the superiority of the faculty, to attract mushwit students.

So much for your independent thinkers à la East Anglia and other sundry disgraced "scientists."

When I read comments like yours, I think, "damn, I miss conservatives." These used to be the people who respected intellect, revered science, and were the grown-ups in the room. Now, when I read nonsense like yours, I think, "no wonder Palin, Beck and Bachmann are the spiritual heads of the movement."

What a sad, bitter, short-sighted group conservatives have become.

Peccable.. you forgot The Fairness Doctrine. If the libs wish to reinstate it, then Lou_Sarah's tax dollars can fund Rush and Beck. Hmm.. no, I think it doesn't work that way because libs are class A hypocrites. I'll make a deal with you Lou_Sarah.. when Al Gore voluntarily feeds himself to starving polar bears, then I'll join your cult.

Lou_Sarah is part of the laughing stock, the joke box that is now seen for what they are; the big headed puppets with the sticks up their butts paraded to and fro by the Soros' of the world, facades for the "Workers of the World, Unite! crap.

Silly little children, play acting as useful tools, not even good useful tools. We mock thee and kick thy worthless asses to the side of the road; at least you can fill in potholes later when the fighting is over.

If I remember geology class, at one time much of what is now Canada, and the United States was covered by massive glaciers. The strait between Siberia and Alaska was frozen over solid.
Somehow, the climate cooled down, and then warmed up without too much help from SUV's and incandescent light bulbs.
Tell you what, Lou_Sarah of indeterminate gender. You go right ahead and get busy saving Gaia. How about starting by reducing your carbon footprint by turning off your computer. Fill your prius with ethanol (don't worry about third world starvation), and drive to Wisconsin. I hear there's a great drumming circle in the state capitol.
Peace out space brother/sister

JWM

Lou: Blow it out your asshole.

"We mock thee and kick thy worthless asses to the side of the road..."

"How about starting by reducing your carbon footprint by turning off your computer. Fill your prius with ethanol (don't worry about third world starvation), and drive to Wisconsin. I hear there's a great drumming circle in the state capitol."

Spoken like people who think swagger equates with an actual argument.

Unfortunately, you're pretty typical of the know-nothings who make up the post-Reagan conservative movement these days. This is why -- despite whatever short-term successes you achieve electorally -- your long-term prospects are pretty grim. All you have to offer the country is your arrogance, your bitterness and a willful disregard for intellect. That's a loser strategy if ever there was one.

LS, you may want to review the mid-term election results nationally to justify the retroactive "sour grapes" pass we will grant you afterward.

Even if scientists can prove rising temps and/or temp fluctuations, they MAY NOT politicize it and misrepresent the data to serve their ideology.

Follow the money trail... and it doesn't lead to "the people" or to facts that can help humanity. It leads to the Leftist elites who capitalize on any and every passing crisis and couldn't give a rat's ass about you, me or the guy in this video no matter how many of their pathetic propagandist movies spin it.

I know it's disconcerting to find free-thinkers poking a little fun at climate change... or global cooling or global warming.. you choose, LS.

This is your nightmare, not ours.

A zillion, no- make that a Gozillion bucks to the first one who can identify the substance of Lou_Sarah of indeterminate gender's arguments.

(LS- We're laughing at you because you're funny.)

JWM

@redcarolina:

If only you actually were "free-thinkers." Alas, what I read in your comments is a wholesale regurgitation of Glenn Beck/Rush Limbaugh talking points: science is elitist, fuel efficiency is a socialist plot and you'll have to pry my 5-mile-per-gallon Humvee from my cold, dead hands.

Regardless of last year's election, if you really think that the country is going to follow you into crazytown in 2012, you're high. I wouldn't say that Obama is completely unbeatable, but there's not a single Republican in contention who can go toe-to-toe with him in the general election. Gingrich is a hypocritical moralizer. Santorium is odious and far too right wing. Huckabee doesn't even believe in evolution (yes, in 2012, hard as that is to believe). Romney is plastic and is not the job-creating businessman he likes to portray. Ron Paul is unelectable. And Palin is a dunce, plain and simple.

That's not a field I'd want to have to choose from if I were still a Republican.

JWM, that is the correct phrasing too, AT not WITH.
It is composed of that squishy stuff that makes a half-assed pot hole filler, not as good as a cold patch but better than litter.

Quite screechy and preachy too, must be using the fourth revision of the Gaian Qoran.

Substance report on Lou_Sara of indeterminate gender's debating skillz:

1)Unfounded accusation (x 3)
2)You're crazy
3)Obama can't be beaten because:
4)Name calling (x 6)
5)I agree with me.

Case closed.
Lou_Sarah of indeterminate gender has thoroughly kicked our butts.
We concede. This group is just not in his/her/its league.

JWM

I guess that compares favorably with the rest of youze:

1.) Unfounded attacks on climate scientists.
2.) Fingers in ears about climate science data.
3.) Mindless repetition of FauxNews talking points.
4.) Dumbass stereotyping of duh libruhls.
5.) Failure to condemn my compulsion to give unremitting oral sex to the president.

You know, Lou, just because you have these "feelings" doesn't mean you have to let them rule your life.

I guess I have to blame myself. After all, I live to give blow jobs to any mind colonizer I can find.

Gerard, can we have a new troll, please?
This one's all worn out.

JWM

I'm working on it, but I have to build them out of substandard parts and it takes awhile.

I really am working on it. The problem is that I can't have my world view challenged by outside forces or I just start to cry -- like my hero Jon Boehner. My need for validation gets the best of me sometimes, which is why I only want people here who are going to post things that fit our preconceived narrative about how Obama is an evil, leftist, Kenyan-born socialist bent on destroying the country by FORCING us to eat healthy and buy cars that get responsible gas mileage. Any dissent from that is just not to be tolerated, which is why we can't allow any trolls.

Thank God you guys can all stick to the script!

Geez, Vanderleun, your standards are both screwy and mercurial.

I prefer to think they are numerous and multiple.

I was wondering if someones choice of posting names was an admission of something to themself. Lou_Sarah begins with Lou_Sar (loser), and contains the sexual overtones (or lack thereof) of androgyny. This name can be interpreted as someones saying "I am an asexual loser".

Sounds pretty close to the reality to me, but maybe Lou_Sarah (HBritten) will clear that up about him-her-self.
