Affirmative Action at work. MLK is turning over in his grave.

Two of the many reasons that liars get caught is that they don't know when to keep their mouths shut and they aren't smart enought to remember their lies accurately enough to not contradict themselves.

I agree, Hawking took a path of esposing many theoretical concepts, most unproven, some disproven. Because he lives in the world of Cosmology where few can make a living, his opinions are viewed as authoritative. He never received a Nobel prize because he is just not a world class scientist. He is an interesting rockstar theoritician with leftist leanings, but that is it.

Jim1034's response was appropriate to the ridiculous claim that Mann and Hanson are in any way reputable.

Please cite your data and we can discuss it. Conservatives did not make Global Warming a political Issue, the left did by using it to jamb anti capitalist, freedom squashing laws down everyones throats. And they tried it with fraudulent data. I am OK with a data based approach with expert peer review and scientific agreement. But I am not for unsettled science stealing my wealth to fund the jousting at windmills that the left advocates.

Oh boo-hoo for you leftys, are you having trouble making measured scientific data match your ideological narrative again? Maybe you leftys should work on why thermometers are all drifting to make things seem colder, this cooling trend can't be really happening. The left is not only morally and ethically bankrupt, but also intellectually bankrupt.

President Zero, you are despicable. You stand there and make totally insincere statements when your own stand on Abortion is a moral abomination. Oh the humanity, Oh the shame! Anything to protect your Islamic friends.....you are beyond pathetic.

Hey President Empty Chair, you wanted to be the top guy, now suck it up buttercup, and either start leading in a positive direction or resign.

The only way to deal with this oppressive government is to remove large blocks of incumbent career politicians (pehaps 20-30% of those up for election). That should scare the rest into behaving better. They really want to keep their jobs and would do anything (even the right thing) when it suits this end.

This is more than enough from this congress and administration. All you chucklehead voters out there. The only solution is to vote out non-conservative incumbents and career politicians. We need much more than a 5-10% turnover. We need at least a 30% turnover on an ongoing basis. The 70% that retain their jobs should earn them by being honest, forthright, and frugal with our tax dollars. How far down do we have to go before we start throwing these evil people out of office?
