To support exploitation and mining in favor to toxic subtances on the water that could kill your own people,to suppont the extermination of endangered species,to deny global warming.
If you support that, you are taking a stand AGAINST HUMANITY,your being perverse,not republican not right wing or anything,just perverse.
I'm ashamed of sharing oxygen with these demonic creatures.
What is the difference between Sarah Palin's mouth and vagina? Give up? Retarded things don't always come out of her vagina. And if you think I'm a pig you can comment on my page. And I hope Sarah Palin gets anally raped by a polar bear. Thank you.
@wehoric Only a sick demented liberal internet coward would use such language in reference to Sarah palin. She is all class, loving wife and a wonderful christian mother! The liberal hate is endless except when they bust HELL wide open!!
People who call global warming a farce simply reject all scientific evidence and reason.
Just about every sovereign nation on this planet (excluding the US) have signed the Kyoto Protocol because top scientists from around the world have concluded that Greenhouse gases are eroding the atmosphere which results in a continual increase in temperature.
To reiterate, you are a scientifically uneducated person. Scientists are highly educated and have analyzed the data.
First off, I didn't say global warming was a farce. I said man-made global warming was a farce and it is. It is nothing but a ploy for research grant money.
Furthermore, science should always be questioned. The man-made global warming crows are nothing but disciples of a techno-religion led by a bunch of charlatans in academia. Proof? 25% of the data is in question because of the East Anglia scandal.
I work with solar scientists daily. They think it is bullshit too. GL with your religion.
You think it is a farce, just as I think it is not farce. Greed plays a role in everything, which is why the East Anglia scandal is not all all surprising. Furthermore, it is not enough to convince me that scientists from around the world simply want research grants.
Of course science should be questioned, I would expand on that assertion and say that everything should be questioned.
"25% is in question", where did you find this number?
Pick up a newspaper. 25% of all research that the UN, USA, and other governments have relied on has come from that institution.
Explain this to me zealot, why have the rest of the planets in the solar system risen in temperature at the same amount during the same period, and declined at the same rate? The sun is an inconvenient truth.
GW believers label you a heretic just like any other heretic if you question the notion. "The science is settled" Bwahaha! It's never settled.
Pick up a newspaper? You don't have to be a condescending fool. I already read newspapers have never seen your claim or 25%.
Zealot? Once again, you're acting childish and snippy. I am trying to be civilized here but you keep feeling the need to make a superfluous amount of antagonistic remarks which makes me question your age and maturity.
Apparently you can't have a neutral debate, which suggests your bias is too embedded in your brain.
Four scientific bodies are used to study the climate by the UN and USA. East Anglia is one of them and represents a quarter of all research into the subject.
For instance, East Anglia have purposely skewed and withheld data showing the Earth has been much more warmer than it is today (Google: Medieval Warm Period and Holocene Maximum). Polar bears survived both events BTW.
You really need to research this stuff for yourself and not rely on regurgitated media GW puff pieces.
I do independent research. Once again you are assuming things about someone you don't know. I abhor most forms of media because I like to form my own opinion.
I don't think there have been any absolute conclusions on GW as of yet because the evidence sways both ways.
Regardless of what you believe, pollution is a big problem. Furthermore, I think it's better to take the safer route by assumung GW may be assisted by humans and take the cautious route and use alternatives like electric cars.
I agree we should seek alternative energy sources for sustainability and energy independence.
First things first. We should start building nuke plants with reckless abandon. That's step 1. Electric cars are fueled by several hundred coal power plants. Moving away from gasoline may improve smog conditions, but it doesn't curb particulate emissions.
Better safe than sorry? I am not willing to cede our industrial might for unproven science.
I am a developer for the world's largest amorphous silicone solar cell company. We analyze the sun a lot because it affects the product a lot. I can tell you with certainty that GW is being caused by the sun.
The amount of Co2 in the atmosphere contributed by human activity is miniscule and is not the cause of GW. The rise in Co2 is due to the earth warming because it is released out of ice and from ocean sediment. I cannot explain all this on Youtube and hope you will investigate on your own.
Very well, I will continue research and see what I can find.
But even if co2 is not causing global warming I think we can agree that it does pollute the air. We could easily cut out pollution (and reduce GW, assuming it exists) and save money on drilling and importing oil.
Electric cars were built in the 80's, but greed for oil profits ultimately destroyed them.
Here's the problem with alternative energy. It is too expensive.
The company I work for ECD also developed the battery for the Ev1. In spite of what people think, the cost of the vehicle was the prohibiting factor. I don't disagree that oil had a role in it, but the vehicle cost was outside the means of the middle class. Having said that, I have high hopes for the Volt.
As far as air pollution, I agree. We should strive to curb air pollution which is a real problem.
Does it not make sense for snow to melt in warmer temperatures? When the average temperature is above 32 Fahrenheit degrees?
And regardless of that, where is the proof that Sarah Palin said this? Barack Obama said that he is going to impose the draft to end the war in Iraq. It's true. I no lie. Learn to think.
And I belive that from your comment,you want sarah palin to continiue her plot to wipe out the polar bear popullation?Well heres what I what her to do,and what I think about her.
sarah p. CAN GO TO HELL!!SCREW sarah p.!!

@Gonji Sarahpalin has been proven RIGHT!! Left-wing extremist have lied about Polar bear problem, global warming is now 100% a proven lie and scam.

U people need to stop hating truth tellers like Palin! I bet you would rather help a make believe animal problem but let an unborn child keep dying by murderous abortion by the millions!!!

Buildings R innocent but i would stomp a mudhole N UR socialist hate-filled azzz! NASA ,COUNTLESS SCIENTIST,WEATHER CHANNEL Founder & ALL HONEST PEOPLE KNOW GLOBAL WARMING IS A PURE B.S. SCAM FROM THE godless liberal hate machine! EPIC FAIL!!
@timmytide1 birth control should be free to woman here in america , so we would'nt have these kind of problems. of course there are plenty of rapist and murderers out there. And 15 years of carrying a gun does not make you a climate expert. i'm socalist now too? No, though i don't like to see people living under overpasses. Or hear about senior citizens eating dog food. GOVERMENT has to help sometimes. there is enough evidence to show global warming is a distinct possibility.

If a polar bear was blocking some oil I'd drill through it to fill up my SUV.
Polar bears are nothing but savage animals that are in the way. They taste good though. Have you ever tried polar bear stew? It's pretty good. Sprinkle a little salt, garlic powder, carrots, tomato paste, and celery chunks and it really fills you up on a cold day.
Sorry "chef i hate animals",I'm a vegetarian,and Im against animal killing and slaughtering!
And if you just stop being so stupid and open up your mind,you'll recognize the beauty of polar bears!Oh,one more thing,theres hot chocolate to fill you up on a cold day!!
What part of "I'm a vegetarian",dont you understand?!?!?Listen...I love animals and you or anyone els can't change that!!One of my friends favorite animals is the polar bear,and if I tell her what your saying that will make her very upset.Know tell me this,YOU what to make a little(Not really)girl cry?Now that would be even sickinning when a guy your age does that!!>:(
This is very sad. Something needs to be done to help the animals. Sarah Palin claimed to be pro-life but she doesn't seem to stick to it when it comes to animals and war.
Humans are the only beings on earth who willfully destroy other animals to extinction. To do so for no more reason than Oil Profiteering - disgusting. One thing if they are edible, or they can be used to save lives due to medicine, etc. This is wonton destruction of life that Noah saved (if you believe such). She's not prolife, she's a vampire, sucks blood for profit. Of the 4 running, she's the one I dislike the most - makes me ashamed of being a woman.
Palin is terrifying when it comes to the environment! there's a really funny video from politicalmirror where Katie Couric interviews Cindy McCain on energy and Sarah phones in--check it out!

Governor Palin has actively opposed the listing of the polar bear despite the fact that Alaska's top marine mammal biologists agreed with the federal scientists who believed the bear should be listed.
