This whole discussion is a microcosm of how personal agendas destroy the chances of taking something very alarming and dangerous in the serious way nececessary.

WTF is the graph. It is not the holy graph. Who gives a shirt about a graph somebody found in the garage!!

On Al Gore Rhythm’s he has generally been proven too correct. All of the trends that he said - that climate scientists - were warning about have come true.

He never portrayed himself as a scientist. He was in a unique position to be able to gain access and be a very important messenger about the inconvenient truth. Naturally conservatives here and elsewhere started to mock him because that is what they do and we were off to the races.

It is downright silly ( I’m being nice ) to talk about the exactitude of what he has foretold in terms of years.
First of all he talked about trends and eventuality and windows.

Since and because others agreed with his warnings some countries have taken some measures. I am guessing that they ( believe it or not may have slowed things a little ) but whatever.

I think it is silly and immature to doing the gotcha bullshirt - oh the storms are only 85% as bad as what he said by now. Give me a break.


And false equivalence bullshirt.
How in the fruggin world is one group that says there is global warming every day of the week and anyone with a brain sees what is going on compared as a culprit to be compared to the side of the world giving the big finger to those trying to save the planet.


So much bullshit and these forums with the antisocial posting is the microcosm of little minds with no point to their nonsense.
Elitism running amok. I’m the smart one because I say that you are both liars and bad apples. NOT - you can’t do god’s work if you thwart it with false equivalency nonsense.

I remember the days before covid when you could be at a thanksgiving dinner and there was some silence as everyone was in deep contemplation of the meal and one person could say out loud Trump and the table would become the Tower of Babel. Everyone talking to themselves or each other or both at the same time. High voices low voices stomach voices angry voices sad voices and nobody getting a word in edge wise.

Those were the days my friend those were the days.

A LIST OR NOT A LIST THAT IS THE QUESTION

Gotcha
red herring
false equivalency
I know more then the generals
don’t trust real science but junk science is good
Education is a detriment to clear thinking
the great uneducated have pure judgement
don’t follow leaders check your parking meters
mock anything that the Democratic Party talks about
next time you go to the bank laugh
do not take the name of the lord in vain
always know where there is sand to duck your head into
liberty liberty liberty - liberty mutual


Oh Sire, my liege, there were no numbers and I did not give a title so may I please be excused from my beheading oh wise one?

There are 265 military confirmations held up for months by one lunatic senator who loves white nationalists.
85 military families are spending money out of pocket living in limbo having moved expecting confirmation and their kids cannot be entered into school
The commandant of the marines retired and his successor can’t be confirmed so first time in 100 years there is no Marine commandant.

the “list” is growing and will soon be 500.

One “man” one vote. In the red.

oh - why is he doing this - something to do with abortion rights.

Jeez, Lenny. Sometimes, you can be a real pain in the a$$.

Sometimes, I wonder if you are a true zealot or if this is just an act for public consumption.

I am a true zealot but I will be too harsh unless I cut the edge with some humor thrown in.

We all need to do that.

I’d love to hear some intelligent response to what that Alabama senator is doing.
Many military experts are concerned that he is a one man dick army starting a military talent loss.

That is one way to defund the military if that is his purpose.

Gollee...............I hate it when I agree (and understand!) with what Dino says!

Scares me some. lol

But these last few posts.........daggone it he's on to something.
Proper levels methinks!
Except for his fondness for lists (though the one on the bottom of the previous page was spot on).....................
Keep stirring the pot Dino!

It IS quite necessary.

As Ed abbey said:

America is like a stew.
You must keep stirring it.
If you do..........cream rises to the top.
If you don't...........you get scum on the surface.

Well that's my take on what he meant..........you can look up his quote yourself.
Ed said a lotta stuff!
Mostly wise, some funny.
Big thinker Abbey was.
Miss him so much.

...as long as the humor is spliced in, I'm good.

Who the hell is Ed Abbey, lol....

OK, I just looked him up. No wonder I haven't heard of him. I usually ignore racists like that clown. Talk about White Supremacy! Ed Abbey is a poster child for it.

Hardly. Just a cranky writer and a lover of the wild places.
Whatever you read is an opinion and VERY misinformed.
