Nice shots, Jody.

So you think that whatever climate change that has occurred in recent decades is not unusual, and within typical ranges for this planet (as far as we know)?

If increasing C02 levels are so nasty, and "causing" global warming, why has there been no rise in global mean temperatures for almost two decades? Hmmm, maybe that is why "Global Warming" was replaced by "Climate Change"? Have to keep the scam alive.

Jody, this is the sort of thing that makes you look like a dunce, when you post what you state is a fact that is easily checkable, and found to be wrong:

https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global/201605

The combined average temperature over global land and ocean surfaces for May 2016 was the highest for May in the 137-year period of record, at 0.87°C (1.57°F) above the 20th century average of 14.8°C (58.6°F), besting the previous record set in 2015 by 0.02°C (0.04°F). May 2016 marks the 13th consecutive month a monthly global temperature record has been broken—the longest such streak since global temperature records began in 1880.

I could post just as many links to evidence that there is no GW occurring. You all will just post links to sites saying there is...whatever. waste of time.

Well, a number of us have. You have not posted any credible links of that.

You ask us to "believe you", but you have no credentials in the field that would make anyone think that you should be taken in a highly technical field at just your word. Particularly when you post "facts" that are repeatedly and easily refuted.

Read the above link.

Your link is NOT to a site that has any credibility, only opinion.

My link is the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Are you next going to direct us to a definitive statement by Sesame Street??

13 hours is not a factual account, just because it is a film.

Daily Telegraph:
More questionable is whether their CIA boss was quite the buffoon the film makes him out to be. For security reasons he remains unnamed to this day, but in an anonymous interview with The Washington Post, he denied ever ordering the contractors to "stand down". His account was backed by a two-year investigation by the Republican-controlled House Intelligence Committee, as well as the CIA, a spokesman for whom said: "No one will mistake this movie for a documentary."

The movie 13 hours also alludes to this..
Not so much directly - but it's always between the lines.
Everyone should watch that movie .
I haven't read the book but I'm sure it's very good too.

Wow! So now we have book reviews of books that you have not actually bothered to read! Does that mean that you have not bothered to actually read any of the scientific papers on these matters?

Or the transcripts of the many Republican investigations of Benghazi?
You just "know" what they say?

There is 0 chance of us stopping any of it . Unless we have a human - mass extinction event . Just too many people and it's not slowing down.Nothing is slowing down ...Even the great David Suzuki has really damaged the environmental movement by traveling in million dollar bus convoys to preach about CO2.


Fair enough. So what's your solution?

Must go back to the King/feudal days when all the pheasants gathered around for a few words - the pheasants would flip out on a few words and promises.

Also on Tuesday, Rep. Richard Hanna (R-N.Y.) became the first sitting Republican member of Congress to say publicly that he plans to vote for Clinton for president, declaring in an interview with Syracuse.com that Trump is a “national embarrassment.”

The three-term congressman, who represents a swath of Upstate New York near Syracuse but is not running for reelection this year, has bucked his party in the past on issues ranging from gay marriage to climate change. He declared his support for Clinton in an opinion piece published Tuesday on the news website and elaborated in an interview that Trump’s continued feud with the parents of a Muslim American Army captain killed in Iraq were the final straw.

“I saw that and felt incensed,” Hanna said in the interview. “I was stunned by the callousness of his comments.”

He added: “I think Trump is a national embarrassment. Is he really the guy you want to have the nuclear codes?”

A lot of people including me are good at understanding the dangers of the far right but are blind to the dangers of the far left .

See, there is one problem with your "dangers". And that problem is that the far right are IN CONTROL OF THE GOP and having significant effects on our laws, the court benches, our entanglements overseas, etc. And they have been in charge since at least 1980, and arguable since 1964, growing steadily more unhinged and divorced from reality.

Meanwhile the "far left" holds no power to speak of, certainly doesn't control a major political party, and thus has pretty much zero effect on anything in the US.

The false equivalency you present is clear evidence that all that education can't make you think clearly or objectively.

Yesterday, on the campaign trail, Trump said: “I’m afraid the election’s going to be rigged. I have to be honest.”

Meanwhile, longtime Trump confidant Roger Stone is explicitly encouraging Trump to make this case to his supporters. “I think we have widespread voter fraud, but the first thing that Trump needs to do is begin talking about it constantly,” Stone told a friendly interviewer, adding that Trump should start saying this: “If there’s voter fraud, this election will be illegitimate, the election of the winner will be illegitimate, we will have a constitutional crisis, widespread civil disobedience, and the government will no longer be the government.”

Stone also said: “I think he’s gotta put them on notice that their inauguration will be a rhetorical, and when I mean civil disobedience, not violence, but it will be a bloodbath.”

That's clear, Jody.

you reject all science related to Climate, and all scientists on this subject are corrupt and falsifying everything.

Or....you could go outside and take the temperature.

Look at newspaper records.

No need to do that, when you have Fox and Friends to just make stuff up.

But don't think that makes you credible.

He'll die.

And global warming is a conspiracy created by democrats and black people to create jobs for libtards and atheists.

Any more sweet assertions to make before the day is out, sugar tits?

Any chance you're wrong with this knee jerk assertion also? Or you are only stupid and ignorant on weekends?

"Something very nice just happened to me. A man came up to me and he handed me his Purple Heart," Trump said. "I said to him, is that the real one, or is that a copy? He said, 'That's my real Purple Heart. I have such confidence in you.' And I said, 'Man, that's big stuff.'"

"I always wanted to get the Purple Heart," Trump continued. "This was much easier."


You wonder if he will be wearing it from now on?

Paul Ryan gets standing ovation at Koch retreat after repudiating Trump’s trade policies
Breitbart
We are flirting with various forms of progressivism, and there are Republican forms of progressivism. Teddy Roosevelt was a Republican,” Ryan said. “We have to thoroughly debunk it, repudiate it.”

Indeed, Mark Levin has similarly explained, “What I see developing is not a conservative coalition, but a coalition on the Republican side of big government advocates.”

“The Republican Party now is a party of the progressive Republicans. Theodore Roosevelt… the protectionists, Ross Perot, Pat Buchanan, the No-Growthers,” Levin has said.

Ryan reportedly suggested that the GOP is engaged in the “fight for the soul of our party and for our country” over the issue of international trade.

The Republican Party is the Party of shoving Free Trade Treaties down our throats, and now they are whining that the Republican voters are stupid because they don't support the job sucking trade agreements.

No wonder the Republicans hate the Government so much, the people they vote for screw them every way possible, and you have to support it to be a good conservative if you like it or not, it's your patriotic duty to stop those libtards!

And you can always blame Obama for your stupidity of not knowing how bad the GOP is screwing you on, it's his fault, he hasn't kicked GOP ass hard enough!

No summit is worth that kind of selfishness.
That was the most close-minded ugly thing I've ever seen you post. Shame on you.

Cragman, you're always so busy with your self righteous "shame on you" that you never seem to notice your "shame on me".
