Looks like the sun is to blame for all this cold. Who would have thought the sun affected the earths temperature so much.

We should fight this by pumping more Co2 into the atmosphere, our record levels of the past decade have not been enough to stave off record breaking or close to it events across the country.

Seems if the sun does not cooperate its going to be another mild summer.

Paged! Al Gores infamous prediction.


Reality.

What cold? Barring the current cold snap, this has been a very mild winter.

Eh, depends on where you're at. Where I live it's been incredibly mild.

So you both live in the south?

/changes "Days Since Last Global Warming Argument" sign back to "0" :p

I'm confused, are you agreeing with me or disputing?

And I live in Ohio, where it has been sub-zero Fahrenheit several times this week but nonetheless mild otherwise, but I can point at things like actual temperature records instead of anecdote.

A little bit of both. Over here in Utah it's the nicest winter I've seen since I've been out here, but the northeast has been hit hard.

Mission Accomplished.

I was hoping someone would talk about New England. Do you remember what snow is? It can't form when it's too cold for water to evaporate. We only get insane amounts of snow like this when winter is mild (and the jet stream is completely off its meds).

For reference, check how little precipitation Alaska gets, particularly inland, particularly in winter.

Although, for all that I'm saying it's been a mild winter, I grew up in Maine and this kind of snowfall was not unheard of in the halcyon days of my youth in the 80s. It's not like winter never existed before climate change deniers started trumpeting.

I can't speak for them, I'm just going off of what I've heard. I have family in Indiana that doesn't think the winter is mild either. I would only truly judge off of data, though, as anecdotal evidence means jack to me. Regardless, a mild winter does not climate change make.

Best quote about the global warming issues.

It's Altima so no need really. Hardly counts.

Here's the problem, trying to correct your confirmation bias forcefully will be counterproductive because you are trying to change something you are hardwired to do all the time. Humans have to make quick decisions in our biases because we have a huge amount of data to process at all times, and if we stop to analyze a specific set of data, it would disrupt our lives too much.

Knowing your biases, and understanding them would make your responses better, so you wouldn't have the "foot-in-mouth" syndrome as often as others. Everyone still has that, it's just that you can drastically reduce the number of times you say something stupid that way.

I am too.....

your on to something here with that comparison, because there is zionist party's. But not all Jews support zionism. So you got a divide in a single ethnicity.

Much like there was a national socialist German workers party, more commonly known in the u.s as Nazi Party that was active during the 1920's to 1945. Not all Germans supported them so there was a minority over a majority mostly wealthy aristocracy that backed tyranny.

or how Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of government and corporate power. We see a good deal of corporate special interest even today they speak louder then the citizens of a nation with Money buying representative favor. Do you think corporations have a right to rule a nation or do you think the people should have the sole right to rule a nation?

Perhaps Communism to Majority Ruled Democracy, this comparison sounds strangely familiar to Fascism and Corporatism. Communism you have lack of private freedom or private ownership and Choice. Yes look at the word Choice typed there think about it. Having a choice between 1 governing party of ideals or 2 party of ideals does not sound like much of a choice does it? Especially when the majority party has more say over there ideals then a minority?


You know what all these forms of government have in common?
They are part of political parties.

Our most prominent founding fathers opposed factions like political parties. Inciting party's are like bitter rivals and are too quickly to think of there own interest then the peoples interest. That i feel and our founding fathers were in favor of the people and it is injustice to look away from that view when political parties are right in front of us falsely representing.

Jupiter Ascending ? that was a good movie

I believe women will inherit the Earth there will be a feminism world war !

So, you just compared Communism and Democracy as similar based on your redefined definition of Fascism and Corporatism....

Maybe you should leave Political Science to those who actually know what they are talking about, k?



Seriously. Political parties have been around since the first election. You know, the one that our founding fathers actually ran against each other with.

Washington was elected President based on his ability to lead, he is the only President who was elected unopposed, and he will forever be the only President who will be elected unopposed.

So, again, leave the thinking to people who are more educated than you, flower-head.

Only person here who is falsely representing is you. You pretend to be one for the people and for the nation, but your words state otherwise, since you wish financial, economic, and social ruin to not only this nation, but the world.

What the *** is this? Are you quoting yourself on words that you have no clue what they mean?

BTW flower-head, what's your response to the video I posted just for you? Are you going to ignore it because answering my question will leave you in a conundrum? Do you even know what "conundrum" means?

Is it time to bring back the Bull Moose party... yes yes it is !

Keep it up flower-head. You are showing your intelligence more and more with every post!

We haven't had a militant Atheism discussion in a while.

I used to get a lot of Atheists posting stuff on my Facebook. I've never encountered more unpleasant people in my life.

Well, the Republicans seem to be trying to reincarnate as the know nothing party so why not?

I'm an atheist.
I carry God is not Great everywhere.
I often read Mein Kampf near synagogues.
I have framed pictures of Chairman Mao, Lenin and Stalin in my home.
I wear fedoras alot.
I offer to debate people but most of them clearly can't match my intellect.
I may or may not have a neckbeard.
I wear glasses.
I often shout out there is no God just to remind everyone.
I enjoy being smug.
I burn Bibles on Facebook.

Seriously though, I do wear a Trilby often.

The know nothing party? You mean Liberalism?

I think the democrats already revived that....

Don't worry, Jeb Bush has promised more neocon if he's elected. He's even tapped Wolfowitz again because we really need the Dubya team... again. At least we know if we don't ground invasion ISIS by '16 that we'll definitely be doing some liberating by then.

Bush v. Clinton. You're getting a dynasty one way or the other 'Murica.

Personally, I would vote for Walker than Bush.
