Can anyone tell me please, what does NOT cause global warming? it's all a myth. All Gore found a way to continue to screw people out of money. Others jumped on his band wagon trying to get some of the money. lol, sort of like the old gold rush days. The rich get richer and the poor and struggling honest Americans suffer. I am crippled with parkinsons disease and other health issues, my wife and i are on a fixed income and as a Vietnam Era Veteran (Honorable) I use the Veterans Hospital and V.A. Doctors. I wonder how much longer I will have the use of it, as the liberial politicians have to keep takeing care of the rich who helped them with campain funding to get them there. How meany dead people do you think voted in the last election? How meany broke the law and voted more than one time? One of the organizations to help them is Acorn. They broke the law, but as usual liberial democrates are above the law it seems. Barack Hussein Obama is NOT playing with a full deck, look at the people he deals with. As for me, i plan to suport and vote for Mike Huckabee, God please let him run again. He plays with a full deck and he is a GOOD Christian. He was a great govener of Arkansas for ten years and we never herd bad things about him, ever. He is a man of good morals. Barack Hussein Obama scares me. There is just something about tat isn't right. This country is in bad need of good leadership.

Thanks for the note, Coyote.

EH, the headline states very clearly: Global Warming Afforded Same Legal Status as Religion in UK

Plaintiff in the case claimed discrimination due to his belief in AGW. His lawyer, Shah Qureshi, head of employment law at Bindmans LLP, added that to not grant AGW beliefs the same protections as religion would mean “that the more evidence there is to support your views, the less likely it would be for you to enjoy protection against discrimination.”

In other words, plaintiff was wrongly terminated from his job for his criticism of management on the basis of climate change beliefs, which in the case of religion is protected under U.K. law.

More tellingly, plaintiff's argument stated very clearly that "...climate change was a philosophical belief as “philosophy deals with matters that are not capable of scientific proof.”

It is abundantly clear, as the headline indicated, that AGW has been established, legally, as a religion - and contrary to your interpretation, the article in question states unambiguously that the ruling confers upon environmental beliefs the same status as religion.

Although defendants have indicated that they will appeal, the case is certain to have implications in the USA as well - however it is ultimately decided.

2009-11-08T13:35:11.967-08:00

Gee whiz and golly! Shouldn’t we appeal to John McCain and Bob Dole to be our party leaders? After all, they are moderate, centrists, middle-road pragmatic appeasers who will compromise with Obama and make the media happier with Republicans. We must avoid one of those 19th century Democrats who followed Jefferson as that could anger the 20th century Democrats who follow Rousseau and Marx (see THE CHANGING FACE OF DEMOCRATS on Amazon and claysamerica.com). And, we must be careful not to allow the likes of Sarah Palin to stir up the individual freedom, free market, American prosperity and exceptionalism crowd, and piss off the media so they won’t speak well about us.

2009-11-08T13:14:45.736-08:00

And the religion gets bigger. 2008 saw what NASA called the Sun’s “blankest year” where 266 of the year's 366 days, there were no sunspots. Sunspot counts for 2009 have been very low, too. This all begs the question: does solar activity have a long-term effect here on Earth? Times of depressed solar activity correspond with times of global cold. From 1645 to 1715, few if any sunspots were seen and Western Europe entered a virtual deep-freeze known as the Little Ice Age. Times of increased solar activity have corresponded with global warming. The 12th and 13th centuries, when the Sun was active, European climate was quite mild. Experts predict that the current solar cycle will peak in 2013 with a below-average number of sunspots. The Sun should remain calm for at least another year. Of course, all this disruption is caused by the lighter-than-air carbon dioxide America has produced in the past few decades. These light gases rise to the sun and disrupt the magnetic causes for sunspots, altering the averages of sunspot activity. The effects on the under developed world is extreme, causing wars, famines and revolutions which disturb the compassionate dictatorships and the order they provide. It must stop! America must be shut down by the Obama Administration, beginning with elimination of the middle class and all its outrageous demands for goods and services. So, Obama is the messiah to whom we must worship.

2009-11-08T10:08:05.238-08:00

If Obama had said nothing about the Fort Hood tragedy you would have accused him of being callous and indifferent. Let's face it, there is nothing this man can do or say that the Teabagger Wing of the Republican Party won't attack.

Americans see through your hypocrisy.

BTW how come you're not talking about how well your Teabagger candidate did in NY District 23?

2009-11-07T21:27:12.817-08:00

That's not quite what they said. Read the the article itself at Daily Tech: "In an unusual case in the United Kingdom, it has been ruled that climate change beliefs should be afforded the same legal protections as religious freedoms."

Being afforded the same protections does not make it the same thing. And, it's only official as far as this particular court is concerned.

Of course, the lack of belief in global warming is also a religion according to this court (by your logic): "Justice Michael Burton who delivered the ruling, ironically had used the same logic to hand a victory to climate skeptics over advocates of anthropogenic global warming theory seeking to show school children An Inconvenient Truth by Al Gore."

F**k You and the horses you rode in on; Obamao, Axelrod, Pfloufe, Jarrett, Rahmbo, Pelosi, Reid, Hoyer, Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Van Jones, Mark Lloyd, Cass Sunstein, Carol Browner and throw in Al Gore for good measure.

This is our country and we are not going to let you a**holes remake it into a thugocratic banana republic. We'll continue to rise up and push back against you all. There will be hell to pay at the ballot box next November, no matter what happens to your quasi-Marxist agenda - you have long since gone too far.

On top of that, you have decimated the military with your politically motivated indecisiveness on Afghanistan and have blood on your hands for that.

If you haven't done so yet, call your congress Representative and urge them to vote against Pelosicare ! Tomorrow has been severely blighted if this monster passes.

2009-11-06T22:21:17.611-08:00

There was an element of dare I say Islamofascism here. Dr. Phil's psychobabble on Larry King don't cut it. Mr. Obamao stated correctly that we should not jump to conclusions. Let it percolate a while - fair enough.

OK, the indicators are clear and it has been 24 hours. Giving away his possessions before the act, then shouting Allah Akbur as he is shooting away shows that this was likely a premeditated act. It seems very much like the guy Muhammed who chucked grenades in the Marines' tent (yelling Allah Akbur then) and killed 12 in Iraq back in 2003, who will be getting executed very soon. But, I won't jump to conclusions here except for the suspicions i have stated here.

Thanks for your thoughts everyone. Seems an interesting psychological puzzle. Perhaps an unwillingness to face the possibility/reality is a large part of it and if somehow we can get others to avoid that possibility/reality, it makes it easier for us to avoid it too. Don't know. It will be interesting to see what is discovered and revealed about this. Thanks.

Not only that, but that 2000+ page bill that Pelosi doesn't want anybody to read (though there are versions online - I suppose it's only Congressmen she doesn't want to read it), ...

... It provides for fines and possible jail time for people whoo don't buy insurance. They figure it'll cost about $15,000 per year for you to buy it.

Fines and jail

"Under questioning from Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.), Barthold said the IRS would "take you to court and undertake normal collection proceedings."

Here's a more recent opinion:

Fines and Jail

"H.R. 3962 provides that an individual ... who does not, at any time during the taxable year, maintain acceptable health insurance coverage for himself or herself nad each of his qualifying children is subject to an additional tax.
...
Thus, a taxpayer convicted of a criminal tax offense may be subjec to both criminal and civil penalties ...
...
Criminal penalties:
... fine up to $25,000 and imprisonment up to 1 year...
... felony willful evasion ... up to $250,000 ... up to 5 years..."

Anon @ 5:17: "And amazingly, the Democratic bill has already been through three committees and a merger process."

So howcome nobody has really read it????? I'd as if you have, but I hesitate to embarrass you.

And howcome Harry Reid admitted that "there is no bill"???

2009-11-06T16:05:52.919-08:00

You're right about one thing. I am not a Republican. But I've voted for them plenty, and my parents were both Republican.

I voted for Reagan in '84, Bush in '88, Clinton in 92 and 96 and Bush in 2000. Then Kerry and Obama.

I'm just one person, and maybe people like me who vote for candidates rather than parties don't matter to people like you. But I tell you the truth, I don't recognize the Republican Party anymore.

"It seems that politicians and the media are very anxious to assure us that this is NOT part of an organized terrorist sleeper cell attack on the United States? Why?"

First, I think they are saying that there is nothing currently known to suggest that it is, and second, they are saying that because it is true. Investigations may prove otherwise.

If you think responsible journalism means that journalists should fan the fires of rumors, then you should watch Fox news, though I suspect you already do.

2009-11-06T14:42:19.339-08:00

Anon157 has some good points, but I'll add that acknowleging an "Organized Terrorist Sleeper Cell" or that this event was something more than your average everyday "Postal worker cracked and shot up his co-workers" type thing, would be to confirm what conservatives have been saying for years - "There is a problem with this country, we have open borders that allow for anyone sneaky enough to get in, and some day some group of terrorists or fundamentalists are going to sneak in and do something to seriously hurt Americans."

Its the same type of mentality that every year further downplays 9/11 footage, discussion, and audio. Its the same type of mentality that continues to wring their hands on situations such as Afganistan and sending more troops. Its the mentality that wants the USA to be the great appeasers of the world, that somehow everyone in the world will just all of a sudden "get along" with each other if the USA takes the lead.

But the viewpoint is different on the other side of the isle - if we conceed that it is terrorism (and this happens with racisim as well) then people will take retribution against innocent people, and we as a country should be better than that.

"A person is smart, but people are dumb, panicky, and you know it." - Tommy Lee Jones, Men In Black

This statement best describes most of our problems, and accurately describes what is the most likely thing to occur if we acknowlege a Muslim Terrorist infiltrated the US Army.

We've always, and will always, react irrationally to a situation, blame others for our mistakes, and take our emotions out on others, most oftenly with violence. (I can cite example after example of this behavior)

So the question becomes, is it better to deny the truth, that is a muslim terrorist killed a bunch of people in Ft Hood, and let people read between the lines - or is it better to acknowlege the truth and let people take matters into their own hands?

In other words - the truth is out there, but do you really want to know the truth, or do you want to just get on with your life?

"It seems that politicians and the media are very anxious to assure us that this is NOT part of an organized terrorist sleeper cell attack on the United States? Why?"
===========

The MSM (politicians and media) want us to believe that Islam is a peaceful religion and that Muslims are a peaceful people. And that there is no Organized Terrorist Sleeper Cell attack currently going on in the US. They want us to BELIEVE it, and they also might want to believe it THEMSELVES.

So they denie the reality, especially when events (Hood, et al) show the opposite is happening.

Chamberlin's approach (status quo, head in the sand) is much more preferable to the liberal sheeple than Churchillian approach (confrontation, intollerance).

2009-11-06T13:46:48.467-08:00

"Could anything have been done if we had focused on it? I'm not sure.

But we know that glossing over it is not helping. Well it did not help the victims of Ft. Hood."
=====

I think so. And I think you think so as well.

As you aleady quoted: "And people actually talked in the hallway afterwards about ‘is he one of these people that’s going to freak out and shoot people someday?' "
====

We all need to focus on fanatics around us.

If they are fanatical anti-abortion terrorists, focus on them.

If they are fanatical anti-government terrorists, focus on them.

The MSM will focus on the above terrorist types, since they are right-wing.

But the MSM will not focus on the left-wing wackos.

And they will only apologize for the Muslim fanatics and terrorists.

So we need to focus on them. Everywhere.

In Fort Hood, many stories will come out in the next days about "how we should have seen the signs about this Muslim major."

‘is he one of these people that’s going to freak out and shoot people someday?'

We now know the answer, don't we?
