    About as enlightening as the rest of you saying the world is ending because we had one summer with a few hurricanes more than was predicted.
     
  4. You honestly believe that's the sum total of the evidence for the global climate crisis?
    Here's a tip, ask the scientists in that McClatchy story if it means what you say it means.

    Ah, the simplistic "It's cold today in (insert town here) so there's no global warming" meme.

    You know, there haven't been any home foreclosures in my neighborhood, so by hondo's logic this financial collapse stuff I keep reading about is a FRAUD!
     
  6. hondo,

    More than just annoying and sad, you're boring. Get some new material.

    Everytime Hondo posts about these things, a polar bear gets its wings.

    I'm just psyched because the melting of centuries-old polar ice means that the masters of European mercantile imperialism will finally have a Northwest Passage to the Far East. Suck it, Nunavut!

    hondo,

    I think the chilling is from oil going over $4 a gallon and people driving less.

    Thanks for Going Green and saving the planet, 'do!

    The scary thing is that people actually believe this shit. Karl Rove's done a fantastic job making stupid people think they are right.
