  • "Terrorism" is a fraud. There is absolutely NO scientific proof for the theory of terrorism. It is just a religious-fanatic-extremist's term used by governments & their supporters to undemocratically suppress & control poor people & organizations, such as PETA. Only unpatriotic anti-american cowards oppose blowing up prisons to free all prisoners until we put the right ones in (corporations, anti-environmentalists, meat-eaters).

  • It enrages me that dumbfuck subhuman rightwing Demopubs force others to support & pay for a MULTI-TRILLION dollar War for Oil in Iraq. But, when you demand the SLIGHTEST bit of moral & financial support for a JUSTIFIED war, such as blowing the brains out of cops, judges, prison guards who imprison pot dealers & consumers, or a War for Animal Rights, or a War for the Environment, the hypocrites scream & cry.

  • It saddens me to think that if all (we) Americans had to do in order to curtail AGW was neutralize a population of non-white, non-Christians in a far off continent, we'd do it with gleeful enthusiasm, and the right-wing would be leading the charge. Its further discouraging that we would do this even if the intelligence were 1/10 as strong and the expense were just as high as taxing carbon. But when you f*ck with the American Way of Life, you lose.

  • Oh, um... were you Hopeful that your comment would make some sort of sense to other human beings or something?

    FAIL.

  • "A. There is no warming.

    B. CO2 is good for the planet

    C. These people are being exposed as the liars they are."

    Trying to decide if you are a troll or just plain illiterate...well assuming you type out that post I guess it must be the former

  • this crackpot was protesting US troops bringing aid to Hati . what a witch

  • Global warming is a fraud!

  • There will never be an agreement to tax carbon because any idiot with a science book knows

    A. There is no warming.

    B. CO2 is good for the planet

    C. These people are being exposed as the liars they are.

    Go find yourself a good lawyer and you might find a nicer cell in prison.

    Buttboy.

  • He has a PHD on the atmosphere of Venus, but for some reason he is an expert on climate.

    There is no expert on climate, it is such a young field of science, and is so complex.

  • James Hansen through the years has made some truly ridiculous statements about the coming catastophy.

    He is an environmentalist first and then a scientist.
