  • Why would anyone pay this nut to give a speech. She knows nothing. She knows nothing about world politics. She was the governor of Alaska, which really means nothing. She also quit that job half way through with shows how horrible a leader she is. She was only picked as a vice president candidate because she is a women. She has no knowledge of anything and is a hypocrite.

  • palin your a good one gee for the rest of you stupid ones out there look how good her state is doing. we need her good brains in the white house. and people buy china stock own who you owe. go together and buy land in trust never to be sold. so before u call successful people like sara stupid why do u not get out there and work on gettin control of the situation yourself in groups to feed and house one another.may god bless you all

  • Well if she can someone to pay her 100k for her to speak then more power to her. It speaks more towards the idiocy of the sponsors rather than her...

  • Hey young turks, I dont like Palin but you guys are a bunch of schmucks. Whats the big deal? Did she take the money from you? No. This is a non story. So whats the big deal if she asks for ridiculous sums of money? Nothing, because people are willing to pay to hear her speak. Where were you guys when Pelosi was flying around in military jets and ordering new furniture for her giant office???

  • I'll pay her 6 magic beans.

    No wait... 3 magic beans.

  • @JonasC22 No wait, I''ll buy those beans from you, Palin is too stupid to even know what to do with them. She'll probably hold them up above her head and make a wish! Lmfao.

  • MAKING MONEY OFF THE 9/11 DEAD. SARAH PALIN IS A LOW LIFE.SAME FOR RUDY ' WE NEVER HAD A TERRORIST ATTACK UNDER GEORGE BUSH" GIULIANI.TWO SUB HUMAN AMERICAN HATERS.

  • What exactly is the 100 grand for? I would have thought escorts were much cheaper than that

  • Sarah Palin has no problem tossing her entire State under the bus for speaking fees and book sales. What part of "She is a fucking opportunist" don't you get?

    She is like most Republicans...YOU ARE EXPENDABLE when it comes to making a buck for yourself.

  • @IngloriusBastard11 Agree, and as long as she can sell her books. 

  • There is nothing left wing Libs hate more than a successful happy and confident American citizen. Oh yeah there is ..... One that is a woman and has shopped at Walmart at least once in her life. Stop the crying about her actually making some money and being successful on her own and get off your couch and do the same losers. That would however mean that you Libs would have to get off welfare and handouts I know it is a lot to ask.

  • @Brento24 Maybe the LIBS get on welfare Because CONservatives destroy workfare. FOR WAR's and more WARS for profits. Typical Right wing talking points Liberals hate to work and always want gov handouts. Again as always righty is off base with reality. Lets talk about how much it cost to rebuild IRAQ and how much it cost for that war???? And not to mention the lives lost over profits for DICK and Friends.

  • Stop hating on a women who MADE HERSELF successful. She was not handed her income in an inheritance like Nanci Pelosi or in backdoor political deals like Harry reed. She didnt even have to take part Obamas income scandels such as hiring every friend Michelle ever had as a six figure a year income assistant the the deputy assistant of secondary make up. get real people Michelle has more assistants than the last four Presidents wives combined and nobody talks about that. Stop your hate libs.

  • WOW talk about double standards. Have you asked Bill Clinton, Hapless Al Gore? Probably not, it's amazing the out cry when ever a Rep does something, but let a Dem do the same thing and nothing, zilch never hear a word about it. Like right now the Tea Party being labeled as raciest and hate mongers. What about the SEIU thugs beating up a Black man at a rally because he was handing out fliers? nope didnt make the news and why not well SEIU is in Obamas pocket. Wake up people and see ALL going on!

  • Sarah is a poopoo mouth!

  • Whatever she's charging, pay it! Please! Let's keep a microphone in her face as much as possible! If someone needs donations, You have my Web site! Anything to keep her talking!

  • Communist work camps alive and well? Better believe it. Google "seattle conservative culture examiner" for the article.

  • I'm sure she is charging alot. She is nothing but another elitist, money-grubbing republitard. For refubs, it's pocketbook first and American people second. That's why they will never get my vote.

  • I was under the impression I blocked you,soakupthecum.I'm so sorry.

    Yes,thebuybull is so great,as it's used to defend one's bigotry,discrimination and paranoia.Those who read the buybull also use the terms fag,nigger,etc.You must be so proud to be amongst those.

    If you're as smart as you've convinced yourself you are,you've likely deduced by the comments below that nobody wants you here,so why don't you just go prepare for 2012 like a good paranoid religious fanatic.

  • I'd Pay Sarah Palin $100,000 to NOT speak...

  • Ballpeen; You probably can't count passed ten without taking your shoes and socks off, and I am willing to bet, that is if you are not one of the "happy" boys, if Sarah Palin offered you a date, you would shit your pants.

  • I love how soakupthecum praises FoKKKx news,though they say Canada is socalist and let the elderly die.

    Read your Buybull and enjoy your diluted sense of reality,BOY!

  • psycho, it's so important to have love, we're happy for you.

    note how these Obammy-happy rodent's can't wait to turn any discussion into a hit piece against Fox news, lies about health care, and cheap shots at the Bible.

    And they expect to be taken seriously?

    Maybe not...

  • Wow, that's, like, $100,000.00 for every word she knows.

  • @MaryJesusJoseph

    And that word is "Alaska".

  • Could someone pay her NOT to speak?!

  • I'd say the Republicans should give Palin $1 million to disappear and never open her idiotic mouth in any public forum ever again. Hell, give her another million to divorce Todd so he'll die unnoticed in an Alaskan homeless shelter. It would be money well spent, as she has no doubt already cost them much, much more than that.

  • WoW you are so afraid of Palin! It makes me laugh my ass off.

  • Not really. ONE moron is relatively harmless.

    Sadly, if there are enough to actually get her elected, the world is in big trouble.

  • Do the neo-cons have some kind of school where they teach these people how to spin their bullshit? They have similar ways of speaking. Lots of hand moving, lots of pauses, lots of gestures. Have they been taking notes from the Nazi school of public speaking?

  • In fact they have two: Pat Robertson's Regent University and Jerry Falwell's Liberty University. Both brainwash their sheep students in the crazy conservative christian right-wing agenda. In both cases a clown college would be a major step up.

  • A peek into Palin's "mind"

    echo GOP talking points

    Not ready error reading device BRAIN

    Abort, Retry, Fail?

  • oh how cynical the left wing radicals are, palin did not quit for money, she quit to promote alaska and america on the national stage, and to get ready to run for president to take back america for christians and those who love this country, not for terrorist and communists PALIN 2012

  • Sounds like you, Sir, are promoting a theocratic oligarchy that takes a huge steaming shit on our constitution and the notion of democratic "freedom".  Your opinions are far more "radical" than that of your "left wing" opponents, considering that you clearly hate everything that America stands for.

  • So you think it's a "Christian nation"? Everybody should have the same ol belief system?! Are you afraid of things that are different too? Look around you asshole, this country was built on immigrants hundreds of years, diferent belief systems and all that!! PALIN IS AN IDIOT! NEVER WILL BE PRESIDENT!!! HAHAHA

  • America is not and never was a christian nation. I suggest you look at the Treaty of Tripoli, Article 11.

    Anyone who supports Palin is more stupid than she is and she is pretty damn stupid to say the least. She actually makes Paris Hilton look less dumb.

  • You do realize that the Treaty of Tripoli was signed by John Adams, the second president. Also the founders were deists, do some research before you ramble on like your heroine the stupid ice queen.

    Speaking of the Constitution, the First Amendment says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion"

    Newsflash: there is no god - all religions were made up by primitive humans who had little or no scientific understanding.

  • I don't blame her at all. How do you think former presidents make their living? She's not a former president so people will forget about her in a couple of years so better cash in now while people still want to hear you.

  • i wish the volume on the youngturks videos are louder

  • Money grubbing fucking STUPID creationist bitch.

    "PALIN FOR PRESIDENT!"

    Warrants only one response:

    lol.

  • SARAH PALIN 2012

    The choice for REAL Americans.

  • hahahahhahahahahaha

  • What exactly constitutes a "REAL American"?

  • She's a whore!!~

  • I'll bet you worked hours on that.

  • Actually, I'll take that back. Your comment sounds like it comes from experience with toothless old ladies. I hope you buy them a drink first.

  • hm i really don't know why it's so hard to find some cool guys on you tube!

  • Maybe because you are as dumb and boring as you are fat, oily, zitty, and stinky.

  • There's a difference between being afraid of a worthy opponent and being afraid for your country's future because a large group of morons are in love with someone who has shown themselves to be a massive ignorant idiot when it comes to everything political. Guess which is the "fear" that most left-wingers feel? In before you pick the wrong answer.

  • I'm not sure if your trying to describe obama or sarah palin. Obama is one stupid motherfucker who can just give a good speech. A real empty suit. Have you ever seen him talk without the teleprompter? My god he sounds like a fucking retard who has down's symdrome. It isn't pretty. I think he is about as smart as your average fifth grader. Scary that someone like that can manipulate enough morons to vote him as president. Show's how many retards live in this country.

  • sawpuppetgrl: As many morons as voted for Bush? Oh, wait, difference is, they DIDN'T. Bush RIGGED the election via JEB!

    Obama's not perfect - HELL NO. Were it me, I'd get rid of Rahm Emanuel and one or two others he's got there- but he's a DAMN SIGHT better than the previous guy.

  • WOW you are a brainwashed idiot. Go look at the electoral votes. If AlBore had actually campaigned in his own home state and won it he wouldn't have needed one fucking vote in Florida. But Arrogant Al (as we Tennesseeans like to call him) thought we'd just smile and pull the lever for his dumb ass. Now go sit in your sheeple pen at Starbucks and pay out the nose for overpriced coffee that has been run through the rectum of some wierd animal. You neolibtards seem to enjoy that kind of thing

  • I thought liberals were lazy bums that didn't want to work and just wanted to depend of gov't? So how can these liberal bums afford that overpriced coffee?

    BTW, nothing is more retarded than lower and middle class Republicans that think it's in their best interest to have corporations rape them in the ass so that they can hit their 30% profit margin to please their equally rich shareholders. Now that's the intellect of a hillbilly Southern Republican!

  • "(Sarah Palin) would make an outstanding senator..."

    Just how messed up is the US electorate when anyone, ANYONE, would consider an idiot and quitter to be "outstanding" senator material?

    Aren't senators required to read?

  • Not if you're Harry Reid!

    dumbass.

  • "dumbass"

    The signature of an idiot.

  • Palin is about as threatening as Rain Man, minus the genius part. This dumb bitch can't even form a fucking coherent sentence, let alone actually figure out what job she was actually running for. LMFAO. Let's talk about how many Ivy League degrees Palin has, how many Law Reviews she has been the peer-elected president of. How much time she spent as a law professor.

    Oh wait, that's right, NONE.

    She couldn't even answer Katie Couric's EASY questions at election time. WHAT A THREAT. HAHAHAAAAAAA

  • I wanna poke her hair!! Would be funny also with my finger)

  • Well, judging by the comments on this video, there is no shortage of crack-pots in American today./cough xxxrightthepoerxxx /cough crack-pot

  • Yes the planet has been warming up since the early pleistocene. These idiots seem to think we did it before humans were even industrialized.

  • Oh my god you are like a breath of fresh air finally a sane person!!!

  • Hey, I can speak nonsense for a lot less money. A hundred thousand??! Geeze!

  • the republicans should find a brain damaged redneck to speak. it would be a lot cheaper and just as informative. lol

  • "cyber", we know you lefties fear and loathe Palin, so give up the hopeful snivelling.

    she'll make you all look foolish, winning debates and popular support while Dem war room investigates her daughter, hoping to find some scandal.

    That is EXACTLY how Obama operates. Read up the man's history. He's a maggot.

  • LOLOL, did you completely miss all of the Palin interviews during the election???? That retard couldn't even put a full sentence together, let alone actually answer a question. Katie Couric owned her without even trying. Let's not even get into the fact that she didnt even know the job description of the office she was running for.

    PLEASE trot that dumbass out again in 2012!!!! PLEASE!!!! Hilarity shall ensue once again...trust me! :-)

  • ebruce you missed the part where i said "give up the hatred-and-fear-based snivelling".

    pay attention, boy.

    try to recall that Palin was the VP candidate, and she makes joe biden (and obama) look foolish.

    Couric made herself look bad, not Palin, as did much of the media. Never has there been a more disgusting display of lousy journalism than there was in the 2008 election.

    America is seeing what an empty suit they voted for. Obama makes Bush look good, never mind McCain.

  • I'm so very impressed, little man. lol. Grasping desperately for that moral high-ground, I see.

    Too bad all you can do is make random opinionated statements with NO basis in fact. PLEASE tell me how Palin made ANYONE but herself look foolish. She couldn't answer a SINGLE question directly. Easy things like "How do you feel about the Bush Doctrine?" *crickets*, "What would your job be as the new VP?"*crickets again*

    Watch the exceedingly painful interviews for yourself again like I did. LOL

  • ebruce continues to ignore the part where i said "give up the hatred-and-fear-based snivelling". pay attention, boy.

    SInce there IS no "Bush doctrine", Couric's question is nothing but an ideological red herring, about what we expect from the Dem-symp nitwits in the media.

    And the question about what the job of the VP is really hasn't got an answer, aside from "be there if the Pres is disabled or if there is a tie in the Senate". Palin, quite likely, thought both questions beneath her.

  • don't talk about DUMB if you're an Obama fan. the man has administered precisely NOTHING, has written exactly NO legislation, and has voted for OR against precisely NOTHING. Not that that makes him dumb; it makes his supporters dumb, for thinking Obama has answers to any question other than "how can Obama profit from this?"

  • Oh look another Palin story how original.

  • Comment removed

  • I'll bet you think she's good looking because she has all of her teeth.

  • The "real Americans" think Sarah Palin is bright? Well, all I can say is that the "real Americans" must be pretty damned stupid.

  • So your choice is a woman who wants to give more rights to rapists than homosexuals. (Wants to ban ALL abortions including rape therby giving parental rights to the "father"; but won't give homosexuals marriage rights) and belonged to a sessionist party in Alaska? A woman who abused her power to try and get her sister's former fiance fired for breaking off the engagement; who couldn't name a single publication she read to prepare for running for VP?

    That's who you want to run the country?

  • oh please, please, please have her run in 2012....THAT WOULD BE AWE-SOME!!!!! *wink wink*

    President Obama would wipe the floor with that ignorant bitch!!!!!!

  • Hell, fellow GOP would rip her apart.

  • "We want to protect our CULTER from anti-christians..."

    Did you mean to type - Coulter?

  • "We want to protect our culter from anti-christians..."

    and on your channel you said:

    "Free speach was a great idea until the so-called defenders decided it only applied to some, not all."

    Wow... just wow... talk about being a hypocrite...

    So you want free-speech... for Christians only?

  • You need a reading comprehension course.

    The word in the first sentence was obviously "culture" misspelled. The meaning of the second quote was obviously that free speech was a good idea until the mass media decided to exclude christians. Not that the person you quoted wanted to exclude anybody else.

    Get some kind of clue, will you?

  • Right and I had no idea that the "culter" meant "culture" thank you for pointing out this really hard thing to understand for me because you're so SMART!

    LOL Get the fuck over yourself and stop the mental masturbation please.

    I was pointing out that it is HYPOCRITICAL to say you believe in FREE SPEECH but want to "protect" the Christian Culture from "Anti-Christians"...

    Get some kind of clue, will you?

  • Looks like you need your valium today.

    Go sit at the Starbucks with the other neolibtards in your little sheeple pens and congratulate each other on just how individualistic and intelligent you are.

  • I'm one of the "sheeple"?

    Few things about MegaSensimilla

    1. He doesn't believe in that fucking Global Warming bullshit

    2. He thinks affirmative action is bullshit

    3. He thinks Sarah Palin is a moron...

    I don't conveniently fit into your little worldview? Too bad! LOL!

    You're a dumbass for thinking you can marginalize the complexity of individual worldviews into these moronic platitudes of yours...

    Btw, you aren't Ms. Cleo, so stop trying to act like you're a psychic... It's pathetic.

  • Why don't you believe in Global Warming?

  • Common sense lesson for you: Global Mean Temperature is an average of the Earth's surface temperature... How long ago do you really think they've been measuring temperature? We didn't even invent the concept until a few centuries ago... so our climate record is VERY much based on climate models (which can NOT account for all factors) that have since proved inadequate...

    Not to mention we have NO accurate way of measuring ocean temps (oceans = 70% of Earth surface) because... it's the ocean...

  • Continued:

    The Permian Triassic era had more than a thousand times the CO2 in the atmosphere than we do today (man was not even around then) and it happened to be the most explosive growth of organic life on the planet...

    Not to mention the medieval warm period which PROVES UNEQUIVOCALLY that the Earth is capable of raising its own temperature WITHOUT CO2... Grapes were growing in England at the time (impossible today)...

    Bottom line... scientists are too full of themselves today.

  • Well, if that's true then wouldn't scientist be concerned that to much of their global warming make it harder for us to live on earth? I think the point that I agree with you is about the plants. But I think the point they are trying to make is that if either it gets to hot, or to unhealthy of air to breath we would be wiped out. In the era you speak of the animals would be able to adapt due to their evolution possibility. I don't think humans can adapt that quickly. All we have is technology.

  • Hmmm so what is your answer to the pile of evidence built up on climate change? You know like glaciers that have been around for thousands of years yet will be fully melted within the century.

    You can't say scientists are full of themselves when you don't even understand the scientific method. Science is about evidence not the pretense thereof.

    Scientists care not for politics, they care about finding answers. You can't assuredly say humans don't have a major impact on our climate.

  • Hah, glaciers melting in the arctic is fine, but why is it that at the same time... RECORD LEVELS OF ICE GROWTH are happening in the antarctic?

    "The Antarctic wintertime ice extent increased at a rate of 0.6 per cent per decade from 1979 to 2006, said Donald Cavalieri, a senior research scientist at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland.

    You said that "Scientists care not for politics..."

    Oh how naive you are...

  • How am I naive? Keep it to the facts and leave personal attacks out. Or at least point out specifically why, because it makes you look like a fool as it is.

  • 1m thing... arctic ice is CYCLICAL... it EXPANDS then CONTRACTS... it's COMPLETELY NATURAL...

    Video by NASA about it...

    watch?v=toVHq87HA98

  • You truly are clueless. Let's look at facts.

    Scientists reconstruct past climate conditions through evidence preserved in tree rings, coral reefs and ice cores. For example, ice cores removed from 2 miles deep in the Antarctic contain atmospheric samples trapped in tiny air bubbles that date as far back as 650,000 years. These samples have allowed scientists to construct a historical record of greenhouse gas concentration stretching back hundreds of thousands of years.

  • "tiny air bubbles that date as far back as 650,000 years."

    Yeap, and guess what they found out? I keep mentioning Medieval Warm period but you ignore that. I mention the Permian Triassic, you ignore that too (both times there was MUCH more CO2 in the atmosphere than today, k?)...

    What else? Well, during the industrial revolution (circa 1950) you'd expect global mean temp to rise amirite?

    Oh well too bad, right then was when GMT dropped...

    Don't think we know everything just yet about clima

  • Hey that's all from Nasa research on climate change. They have a website specifically dedicated to it and call the evidence "compelling".

    You're right that we don't know everything but there certainly is good evidence building on it.

  • Global surface air temperatures rose three-quarters of a degree Celsius (almost one and a half degrees Fahrenheit) in the last century, but at twice that amount in the past 50 years. Eleven of the last 12 years (1995-2006) are the warmest since accurate recordkeeping began in 1850.

    The oceans have absorbed much of this increased heat, with the top 700 meters (about 2,300 feet) of ocean showing warming of 0.18 degrees Fahrenheit since 1955.

  • The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets have shrunk in both area and mass. Data from JPLs Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment show Greenland lost 150 to 250 cubic kilometers (36 to 60 cubic miles) of ice per year between 2002 and 2006, while Antarctica lost about 152 cubic kilometers (36 cubic miles) of ice between 2002 and 2005.

    PMegaSensimilla please show the last time that this amount of ice was lost and came back again. Please show exact amounts and time.

  • Mountain glaciers and snow cover have declined on average in both hemispheres, and may disappear altogether in certain regions of our planet, such as the Himalayas, by 2030.

    Many species of plants and animals are already responding to global warming, moving to higher elevations or closer to the poles.

    Precipitation and evaporation patterns over the oceans have changed, as evidenced by increased ocean salinity near the equator and decreased salinity at higher latitudes

  • So MegaSensimilla let's see your counter to this evidence USING THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD, be sure to submit it to a scientific journal for peer review.

    You might win a huge prize one day for proving all the evidence for climate change wrong. I'll be waiting.

  • I gave you all examples from NASA...

    If you're telling me NASA is not a veritable source then...

    I dunno what to tell you. You obviously won't heed any opposing viewpoints...

  • HAHAHA...WOW. PLEASE define the term "Real American" for us all, genius. Please enlighten us. LOL

  • Hey, xxxRightThePowerxxx, we sure would like you to give your definition of a "Real American"!

    Here's what I imagine you might say:

    Real Americans don't want the Gov' interfering in their lives (unless it pertains to sexuality, a woman's control over reproduction, or religion in schools)

    Real Americans are pro-death penalty, pro-gun, opposed to Gov' programs to help the needy, want to kick ass overseas, and are devout followers of Jesus at the same time.

    Real Americans only watch Fox.

  • LMFAO, THANK YOU for showing your cards as the mental midget you truly are!!!! People like YOU are the reason the Republicunt Party is damn near dead. haha.

    I love your sweet, sweet tears, FAUX News talking points parrot!!! :-) Keep it coming.

    BTW, I hail from a three-generation Navy family, you fucking scumbag. Watch your mouth trying to refer to someone as anti-American!!!

    Boy, that 8th grade graduation mustve been rough for you. LOL Education is your friend, seriously, construction monkey

  • Propagandizing piece of shit.

  • I'm not even a liberal you fucking knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing retard. hahahahaaaaaa. Since you have nothing intelligent to say and can only sqwuak back what your gods at Fake News tell you to sqwuak, I can sit back and watch everyone else OWN you... just like they are doing right now. :-)

  • Comment removed

  • All you've been doing is spying for our enemies.

  • WTF? You make NO sense whatsoever.

  • wow, reading one of brucey's posts is like reading the words of a moron, except most morons probably have more respect for themselves than this twit seems to have.

    note the telltale snivelling about Fox news; this has become one of America's geek flags, for sure. accuse the one fair and balanced broadcaster of being biased... great stuff, and just what we expect from yet another Obama syncophant.

    A 3-generation Navy family. Boy, don't ask don't tell has been around that long?

  • @ soakupthesunman - Call it "sniveling"all you wish, old man. The educated people in this world call it FACT. Denial doesn't make it go away :-) Secondly, how incredibly sad is it that a guy who is my FATHER'S age has nothing better to do than argue on youtube in the defense of a retard like Sarah effing Palin.

    You and your ilk are fucking dinosaurs, your time is over in this country...lay down and fucking DIE already. Sore loser. Let's see some more of those delicious tears. I LOVE IT! LOL

  • you're snivelling, ebruce, and you're wrong, but it's so fun seeing dumbass fascist poseurs light their hair on fire. go for it

  • soakupthescumbag - BTW, I forgot to THANK YOU for doing your part in contributing to the death of the saddest, most pathetic, broken-down, "political party" in the annals of written history.

    Give me your address and I PROMISE I'll ship some Viagra and Depends Undergarments to you in order to take some of the sting out of your sad little life. :-)))))))))) You made my day, gramps!

  • ebruce, we didn't need more proof that you're a pointless troll, we already have your previous posts. you lefty mouthbreathers are SO eager to go to bathroom references... I'm guessing that's where you spend most of your time.

    And most of your viagra.

  • Maybe she needs all that money to hire gigalows.

    Being Republican, the Palins probbably don't have much of a sex life. ;)

    She probbably spends a lot of time alone doing this to herself:

  • Not to mention the fact Al Gore the hypocrite gets paid to push his global warming fear mongering.

  • Bingo. You should look into the MIT scientist and climatologist that disproved the common theory that CO2 causes global warming. 20yrs of research and data collecting vs the Gw climate belief that is something comparible to cauldrens and boiled sheep eyes. Green freaks, the newest way to worship dirt

  • Additionally, you called Al Gore a hypocrite.  I completely agree. He uses 2600 per month in electricity and the "preaches" responsibility. What a joke

  • Get your facts straight. Buys from more expensive providers that provide electricity with almost no carbon footprint. He and his wife also primarily work at home, necessitating home offices which, in turn, require much more power. That, coupled with his larger-than-average home, security system, and appliances that use electricity rather than gas it seems completely legit to have a high electric bill.

  • And if he didn't demand so much, the electricity would be more available to other users. Then those users wouldn't require more economically efficient power from plants huh?

  • No. If he didn't buy it it would hardly effect the economics of renewable energy with a limited carbon footprint vs. the more economically but environmentally damaging energy plant system.

    You're grasping at straws. The man keeps a fine, environmentally friendly house. His house has a smaller carbon footprint than almost any other home, of almost any size, in the country.

  • Who cares... our planet had like 5000 times the CO2 in the atmosphere a few million years ago... and that's before humans even existed...

    Not to mention the medieval warm period in which England was warm enough to grow grapes...

    Which begs the question, why do we even fear a warming of the Globe? Common sense indicates this would only mean an INCREASE in habitability for a majority of the world's species (plant AND animal)... Rate of sea level rise is slower than building development, etc.

  • You're a fucking moron, absolute moron, and heres why. Global warming = Drought = killing all life in temperate climate environments Increased intense tropical cyclone activity Increased incidences of extreme high sea level Acidification Shutdown of thermohaline circulation Intense Oxygen depletion Methane release from melting permafrost peat bogs Methane release from hydrates Forest fires Excessive release of sulfur aerosols these are all the MINOR affects, w/o economic/social.
  • I'm the moron?

    During the Permian Triassic, there was more than a THOUSAND times the concentration of CO2 in the air on Earth...

    Guess what, it was also the most explosive growth in ORGANIC LIFE ON THE PLANET IN ITS HISTORY...

    Try again...

  • Not to mention, the next interglacial is due in about 10,000 years...

    Our fossil fuels WILL run out in about 2000-3000 years by the best estimates of experts...

    So... you think a lil warming might mitigate this deep freeze of the future?

    You have a very solipsistic world view, sorry to say...

  • Haha I love the "Intense Oxygen Depletion" crackpot theory the best...

    CO2 = food for plants... it fuels the krebs cycle which is a crucial mechanism of photosynthesis...

    You'd think with more CO2 we'd have more plants churning out more O2...

    In fact, one of the "evidences" of anthropic forcing on climate change was the fact that more trees were growing in places like Greenland...

    The irony!

  • Last I checked, the majority wants a public option...

    Wendell Potter was a former Director of Public Relations for Humana and Cigna, 2 of the most successful Health Insurance Companies in USA... (he didn't get fired, he QUIT) Guess what he says about Michael Moore's movie Sicko?

    SICKO IS RIGHT

  • At least you got the Global Warming part right...

    but really, you still think he's a Kenyan citizen when even BOEHNER (Your beloved Republican leader) says that he is AMERICAN?

    Way to sound like a crackpot fringe theorist.

  • Talk about scare tactics to achieve an agenda. You neolibtards are the best at it.

    According to you I should save the planet from a lifetime of carbon dioxide emissions by clubbuing all the baby seals I can for Mother Gaia.

  • Oh and you can defend Al Bore's insanely wasteful mansion (not to mention his jet trips and the like) all you want, but it just makes you look more religious than you already do...

    You can't twist the facts around on this one. Al Gore lives in a huge house... I don't care if he "purchased" carbon credits... that's still CO2 in the air amirite?

  • No, it's not. A big house only has a carbon footprint if it uses gas or coal power. His house uses methane and only for certain things and to a lower degree than most homes.  He also buys almost twice the number of carbon credits than he needs to for his personal gas use.

    As for the jet trips I agree that he shouldn't take many but sometimes they're necessary.

    You still haven't provided ANY proof of his mansion being "insanely wasteful." You're grasping at straws.

  • LOL no I'm very well aware of his apparent "change of heart" AFTER the issue was raised during his Inconvenient Truth campaign...

    He installed all the "hot" green items, including geothermal which tells me he's doing this for SHOW...

    I've taken energy conservation courses at UC Berkeley (go figure) and Geothermal is hardly efficient LOL!

    The gipper? Gore's home improvements reduced his electrical consumption by 11%

    ELEVEN PERCENT LOL!

  • Not to mention the pv panels... Rain collection is good I'll give him that...

    But pv panels hardly return on energy the cost it takes to manufacture until about 2 decades... and that's being generous....

    Really, all these "green" improvements he's made haven't done jack shit...

    He'd have gotten more efficiency just by doing a once over of all the insulation in his home and making sure there are no leaks... This is proven to reduce energy waste by a HUGE factor.

  • We need to conserve energy so Al Gore can cruise the sky in style...

    We need to use "green products" and drive electric cars made by foreigners and Al Gore rides in limos.

    Global warming is a fraud.

  • Sarah Palin 2012.

    The choice for REALLY FUCKING STUPID Americans.

    You conservatives are infinitely retarded.

  • Palin: Worked her way to the top by challenging, attacking and actively undermining the Republican party establishment in her native Alaska. She ran against incumbent Republicans as a candidate willing and able to clean the Augean Stables of her states government.

  • Palin: A woman with a wide range of interests in a well-variegated life. Held a succession of jobs sports journalist, commercial fisherwoman, state oil and gas commissioner, before entering local politics. A resume that suggests something other than burning political ambition from the cradle but rather the sort of experience that enables her to understand the concerns of most Americans.

  • That resume doesn't say shit about her you dumb ass hillbilly. She's a bible thumping assclown that always spews out the usual retarded Republican talking points everytime she speaks. And she can't even do that without sounding stupid. I wonder how she'd sound if she was actually trying to "articulate" her own thoughts.

  • Oh, so you are going to attack her for being christian? I guess maybe you would like her better if she was a muslim illegal alien...You libs can wage war against christians all you want but we have god on our side.

    Palin 2012

  • God is on libs side, says so in the bible. Page four, the paragraph just after the blind and shit.

  • LMAO, Jesus Christ dude you are a fuckin waste of life. There is a difference between have a religion (whatever religious it may be) and being a religious whacko. She is the ladder. There is nothing wrong with being a Christian (or a Muslim for that matter) but it doesn't have shit to do with serving our gov't and making laws. That's what you hillbilly bible-thumping retards can't seem to figure out.

  • So everyone who believes in God is a hillbilly ? All you guys do is attack and then when we get riled up and stand up for ourselves and what's right you call us Hillbillys and trash Christ.

    You have no idea what mainstream Americans want. You know in between NY and LA there is a little place called America you should go there sometime.

  • I never said everyone who believes in God is a hillbilly, I just reread my post again. Honestly I don't care what mainstream America wants because they aren't that bright anymore. You have every right to believe what you want to believe and I respect that. It just makes me go crazy when I hear religion in politics. I just don't understand why people support a party that has destroyed so much of middle class America.

  • BTW, I apologize for the name calling. You were civil with me so you deserve the same respect.

  • Mainstream Americans live in real cities or their suburbs, not some Hazzard County backwoods. You do realize that most of the country's population is in the major metropolitan areas, most of which are in blue states. Go back to your bibles, booze and right-wing Fox Pravda Izvestia Kool-Aid.

  • You don't know shit from shynola boy.

  • Go look at the official Census data. Oh that's right you right-wing nutjobs listen to lunatics like Bachmann who tell you that the Census will be used to "take away your freedoms".

    Palin and Bachmann = Bizarro Thelma and Louise.

  • She is the ladder? You mean I can climb on her to reach the top of my roof?!?!?!

  • You would be better off with a horse on your side, at least the horse would be real.

    Palin 2012 B.C.E. maybe though even that primitive time period might be too advanced for the stupid likes of her.

  • Wide range of interests ? You mean like uninformed idiot, bible thumper, redneck hunter, hypocritical quitter and bitchy diva ?

  • Imagine how much she would get paid to sing a song if she is only speaking for that.

  • I'd pay $30 for a seat at an hour long Palin comedy routine and then have Tina Fay parody her right after. Paliin asking for $100,000 quite a joke only if some dumbazs is willing to pay it.

  • turks , lame

  • Of course she's in it for the money. She is trying to raise money. You got a problem with that? She's a capitalist. She offers a service -- speaking -- in exchange for a fee. The "buyer" can accept or reject the offer, or make a counteroffer. At least, in a free enterprise, capitalistic system you can do that. It's known as a free market where supply and demand determine prices. If the demand is there, she can get $100,000. If not, she can't. What is about free enterprise you don't get?
