A MarketPlace of Ideas                        

Global Warming, made up crap

Poverty in America , made up crap

Need for more taxes, made up crap

Abu Ghraib “Scandal” , made up crap

Democrats push to get out of Iraq, made up to gain power in the short run == made up crap

Fear of Nuclear power , made up crap

I keep looking and I can’t find a single policy the democrats advocate that’s not made up crap.  All confabulated as excuses to do what they really want which is grab power or power by proxy AKA money.

Its why I say they’re not a viable party any more.  The republicans are no gem but at least they have some shread here and there that makes sense.  Not much but SOMETHING.  The dems have NADA.  Er well they do have naked lust for power.  But that’s not what I meant.

“It is a cold fact: the Global Cooling presents humankind with the most important social, political, and adaptive challenge we have had to deal with for ten thousand years. Your stake in the decisions we make concerning it is of ultimate importance; the survival of ourselves, our children, our species,” wrote Lowell Ponte in 1976.  Linked Arty

I was born in 1961.  I was politically aware by the time Lyndon Banes Johnson said ” I will not seek and will not accept the nomination of my party”.  For those of you not tuned up that would be about 1967.  That places me as aware at at 6 years.   I remember people trying to whip up a frenzy about global cooling in the mid to late 70’s.   I laughed to myself about how abstruse this con game was.   It reminded me of the small advertisements in a magazine called “Boys Life” magazine.  ( It was a cub scout publication.  FYI: I could not bring myself to join We-Blows.  Doesn’t matter how many times you rinse and repeat you ain’t gonna get that flavor out of your mouth )  These advertisements had all sorts of crazy things listed.  My father used to call them SKIN-GAMES because as he said “Those folks are out to skin you”

So in the end Global cooling was a skin game and I’m sure we’ll see in the end that Global warming is also.  The question is how much are we going to get skinned?

…..and how much prozac will the true believer geeks need to take to survive till global warming is widely known to be a farce ?
