GOP Leadership in Washington - With Us Or With Rush?

When the Republican leadership in Washington talks about energy and global warming, all you hear is Rush Limbaugh. So they've got a choice: Follow the leadership of Republican Governors Crist, Schwarzenegger and others to build a clean energy economy, end our dependence on foreign oil, create millions of jobs and solve the climate crisis...or...follow the leadership of Rush Limbaugh by proposing no new ideas, providing tax breaks to oil companies, and ignoring global warming. http://www.withusorwithrush.com

I'll bet you guys are cool with government subsidies for wind and solar, no? Solyndra sound OK, hmmm?

the 1 world govt wsj-foxnews-rushie ECONOMIC FREEFALL neocons is the obstruction politico of NO ... the murdoch family (bod & largest shareholder) are mostly australians & rupert's wife's born in chicom Xuzhou ... meocons CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH so they lie ... take saving the largest form of life phytoplankton - NO ... polar bears, frogs, snakes, birds, lizards, bats, butterflies, bees, coral are dying off too ... meocons say who cares ... support AMERICA ... join the fox news sponsor boycott

the rushie herbert hoover neocons is the obstruction party of NO ... the meocons are mind controlled mega ditto heads ... the rushbo the meocon defacto leader says that what happened to new orleans, galviston, polar permafrost thaw are good things ... but what about the melting of 5.8 million square miles of north pole ice ... and the antarctic temps rising by 3.5 degrees along with ice melting there too ... the Earth's refrigerator keeping the planet cool is breaking and temps will soon soar

the rushie herbert hoover neocons is the obstruction party of NO ... the neocons are mind controlled mega ditto heads ... the rushbo meocons, i mean neocons, wish a depression ... but they aren't paying attention to climate change and how the birds are dying off like crazy ... in my backyard, when a bee died, a bird would take the bee away ... but nowadays, there are all kinds of dead bugs on my patio/sidewalk, no birds .. racheal carlson wrote a book about this but the meocons only laugh at her

.... is smeared out - resulting in broad band absorption or emission. Gas phase molecules, free to translate, rotate and vibrate have precise frequencies that can be found using tunable laser sources or high resolution fourier transform instruments. This information is not cut and paste - this is my research field of expertise. Of course, I realize that burning fossil fuels adds CO2 to the atmosphere. That is not in question. The difficulty is proving cause and effect. For example, you....

on Molecular Spectroscopy - the scientific investigation of matter absorbing or emitting photons. Whether in gase phase or not, all molecules have characteristic absorption frequencies - sort of like a fingerprint. The work is based upon the princiiples of Quantum Mechanics whereby the Hamiltonian function operates upon the wave function allowing a precise determination of the energy levels characteristic with the molecule of interest. In liquid or solid state, the energy level density is...

Land plants remove 8.2 billion tons of C02 per year, and the oceans remove 12.2 billion tons. That means 20.4 billion tons of CO2 is being removed from atmosphere every year naturally. Because of fossil fuel burning there is now 32.6 billion tons of CO2 being added to the atmosphere yearly and deforestation adds 4.1 billion tons, which is a total of 36.7 billion tons pumped into the atmosphere. 36.7 - 20.4 is 16.3 billion tons of additional CO2 accumulating in the world atmosphere every year.

"they are simply gas phase molecules that absorb..". Read up on what, dumbass? You proved nothing with that "learned" cut and paste. That's the point. C02 properties cause it to absorb IR in the upper atmosphere. Methane is a many times more effective greenhouse gas than C02 and methane is being released from the melting ice masses and tundra areas. Water molecules also absorb radiation but they stay in the atmosphere only days, whereas excess C02 stays in the upper atmosphere for centuries

I have plenty of education and I'm sure significantly higher intellect than you, I just like fucking profanity. I'm sure your simple mind cringes everytime you hear it, but that's your problem.

[Striker4928]

Liar. Go tell the top scientists in the world, the NOAA & the Center for Atmospheric Research that. They determined with no doubts industrial C02 has been the dominant influence on climate change for the past 50 years. The most important is C02, a GREENHOUSE GAS that traps solar radiation & warms the planet. This has caused more frequent heat waves, droughts, extreme precipitation events with related regionally dependent events like wildfires, heat stress, vegetation changes & sea-level rise."
