I’m just back from a beautiful hike in the forest, and was thinking about how none of those trees would still be there if it weren’t for an abundant supply of fossil fuels.
Once Obama kills off the coal industry, the US will be almost completely dependent on fracking and/or foreign oil. Greens are generally much too stoned to make that connection.
I drove across Maryland on I-68 on Monday, and was treated to Maryland drivers tailgating 15 feet apart at 70MPH coming down out of the Appalachians. One flat tire and they have a massive 30 car pileup.
These same people are terrified that some NRA member with an AR-15 is going to come shoot them, even though such a thing may have never actually occurred.
I was listening to left wing “Democracy Now” yesterday on the radio. They despise Obama’s behavior as much as people on the right do, for pretty much the same reasons.
Bigotry against Christian players is the official policy of progressives – i.e. Tim Tebow bashing. They said he shouldn’t make public his religious beliefs.
Everyone in the press knows who the 249th draft pick was, both almost none know who Jadeveon Clowney or the other 247 are.
When they aren’t busy trying to wreck the constitution, destroy our energy security, raise taxes or eliminate freedom in the US – this is progressives’ vision for what children should be watching on television.
Global warming could make male sea turtles disappear

Sea turtles evolved during the Jurassic. For most of their history, Earth was 5-12C warmer than it is now.
Until a few years ago, government experts said that Greenland and Antarctica were both cooling. But that didn’t suit the agenda.

Over the past few years, government experts have reversed many climate stories in order to fall in line with government objectives.
Two years ago, NASA’s top polar scientist said that Antarctica was gaining ice at a rate of 49.000.000,000,000 kg/year
Mass Gains of the Antarctic Ice Sheet Exceed Losses
Zwally, H. Jay (NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, MD, United States)
During 2003 to 2008, the mass gain of the Antarctic ice sheet from snow accumulation exceeded the mass loss from ice discharge by 49 Gt/yr (2.5% of input), as derived from ICESat laser measurements of elevation change. The net gain (86 Gt/yr) over the West Antarctic (WA) and East Antarctic ice sheets (WA and EA) is essentially unchanged from revised results for 1992 to 2001 from ERS radar altimetry

Since then, Antarctic sea ice has also set an all-time record, and alarmists have gotten stuck in the excess ice. None of this worked for the political agenda, so they simply sponsored a new “study” which concluded :
Three years’ worth of readings from the European Space Agency’s CryoSat 2 satellite indicate that Antarctica’s ice sheets are losing 159 billion tons of ice per year — which is twice as much as the estimates from previous altimeter surveys.

Previous altimeter surveys showed that Antarctica was gaining ice, not losing it. Unlike sea ice, which anyone can analyze in two dimensions – altimetry of land ice involves changes in the third dimension, which is not visible from photography. Thus they can switch their story, and no one can prove them wrong – except for themselves, who already did.
Every climate story reverses to support the agenda. NASA used to say the US is cooling. Now they say it is warming. NASA used to say Antarctica is cooling. Now they say it is warming. NASA used to say we were headed into an ice age by 2021, now they say we are headed for a meltdown. NASA used to say that satellite temperatures were more accurate, now they ignore them.
