A Credible Global warming Scientist!

I've lived in this same house for 25 years and like clockwork the linden tree just outside my back door blooms on fourth of July. It has a wonderful aroma and it hums with every manner of pollinator. Bees fly and lie around in a drunken stupor and the driveway is covered in little white bell flowers. It's a gorgeous tree really.

It's been in bloom for a week now.

Over in Czech the weather in May and beginning of June was very very cold, unusually. Does it mean anything? Not at all, one occurrence is statistically unimportant.

I like the humor but just how do you act and respond when you get mad. The point which you avoid is that you are using the technique used for years by the tobacco companies. There is clear evidence that much of the denier budget comes from sources with vested interest in the oil companies.

Not sure I wanna be your dood or dude.

Not really impressed about where you carry your Constitution. I had lots of students with math books in their hand and they still had no clue what was in it. I have read the Constitution-I do not claim to be an expert - people who have concentrated on Constitutional Law for their career have huge disagreements on what it means. If its so clear to you why are many supreme court s5 to 4? You have a very inflated view of what every word of that document means.

The Constitution does not establish the right to bear arms.

Quote from source below
Amendment 2 - Right to Bear Arms. Ratified 12/15/1791. Note
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
source:The United States Constitution - The U.S. Constitution Online - USConstitution.net

Looks to me like the 2nd amendment establishes that right. Without that amendment where would you say it is?

Thought it would be obvious that I made up the word "amendment-able" to make a point. Just let it go - I predict that many got it. Hope saw the humor.

Quote:singleton

It does not matter what "many feel"

Again I disagree-how people feel is how people vote and its clear from the constitution that this is the main way we have our voice heard!

"The right.......shall not be infringed."

Meaning the right was already there and cannot be infringed on.

charlz - without the amendments the Constitution says nothing about the right to bear arms. The 2nd amendment clearly establishes that right.
Where is it stated or is it a "god given right"?

The sad part is that the point is that the right is not absolute and there are still restrictions on what we can have and where we can possess our treasure. These details are where the problem lies, not in where the right came from. Noone questions whether the right was established. It is not black or white!

I found the article interesting. Species are interconnected - may be some good reasons to not let them be hunted to extinction.

Ice Age Now was constructed by a man called Robert W Felix to promote his self-published book about "the coming ice age". It claims that sea levels are falling, not rising; that the Asian tsunami was caused by the "ice age cycle"; and that "underwater volcanic activity - not human activity - is heating the seas".

Is Felix a climatologist, a volcanologist or an oceanographer? None of the above. His biography describes him as a "former architect".

His quoted: "Since 1980, there has been an advance of more than 55% of the 625 mountain glaciers under observation by the World Glacier Monitoring group in Zurich." The source was given as "the latest issue of 21st Century Science and Technology".

21st Century Science and Technology? It sounds impressive, until you discover that it is published by Lyndon LaRouche. Lyndon LaRouche is the American demagogue who in 1989 received a 15-year sentence for conspiracy, mail fraud and tax-code violations.

Love your logic; similar way you could defend ****** because he was a vegetarian and really liked animals. What does have the information to do with the personality of the collector? I think Al Gore is wrong in his scam that got him Nobel Prize - because he is making things up, not because he is a democrat.

simgleton- you have no clue of my views and to conclude that all who disagree with you are leftists shows a certain level of arrogance and/or ignorance. I am probably more fiscally responsible than you - but maybe not. Point - you are very loose with your labels.

5-4 votes show that the clear meaning of the Constitution isn't as clear as you claim or simply that many aren't as literate as you. You also dodge the clear conclusion that our laws would not allow you to possess every weapon our military has. Our maybe you feel all should have the weapons of the warlords in Somalia and Iraq, etc.
Remember where this discussion came from - your confidence that most Federal Agencies are Unconstitutional -

Looks like your solution to the nations issues is that all those who think like you can vote. Doesn't sound constitutional to me. Our system of Law and of Government has thus far shown no validity for your conclusion. Let's shut down the FCC and let each state regulate the frequencies in their air space. What do you think?

Your snide and clever comments do not impress me - seems we could disagree in a civil way.

I have what you've written. Do your words not reveal your views?

and to conclude that all who disagree with you are leftists shows a certain level of arrogance and/or ignorance.

Not all who disagree with me are leftists. Only the leftists (ie. those who would elevate government above individuals, or groups above individuals).

I am probably more fiscally responsible than you - but maybe not.

You're not, if you're proposing to force me into your "green" economy, relieve me of my fossil-fuel powered vehicles, and tax my carbon use. Besides, we're not talking about fiscal responsibility; we're talking about a leftist view of global warming.

Point - you are very loose with your labels.

Loose, but accurate.

5-4 votes show that the clear meaning of the Constitution isn't as clear as you claim or simply that many aren't as literate as you.

Or, it shows that some justices have an agenda. Why do you ignore the most obvious answer?

You also dodge the clear conclusion that our laws would not allow you to possess every weapon our military has.

We were talking about the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment offers no prohibition on the size, style, color, or capability of the "arms" it mentions. Once McDonald is decided, the 14th Amendment will hold sway, and many of the existing prohibitions will fall to the wayside.

Please read the Constitution. Just once. It won't take that long.

Our maybe you feel all should have the weapons of the warlords in Somalia and Iraq, etc.

Mostly junk, but I'd take a decent AK and a few grenade launchers. I think Americans can afford better weapons, though, and I see no Constitutional authority for Congress to prohibit "arms" of any type. Read the Second Amendment, and tell me which part limits the type of arms that are protected.

Remember where this discussion came from - your confidence that most Federal Agencies are Unconstitutional -

Read the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, and tell me what you think they say.

Looks like your solution to the nations issues is that all those who think like you can vote. Doesn't sound constitutional to me.

I would gladly support a system that allowed only those with a vested interest in the nation to vote. For instance, those who have served. There are those who have discovered that they can vote themselves a paycheck, and, for them, politics has become a lottery game. Democracy is among the worst of forms of government, when you let human beings participate.

Our system of Law and of Government has thus far shown no validity for your conclusion. Let's shut down the FCC and let each state regulate the frequencies in their air space. What do you think?

Show me where the Constitution authorizes the FCC, and does not relegate that power to the States, respectively, or to the people. Go ahead. Show me.

Your snide and clever comments do not impress me - seems we could disagree in a civil way.

You'd think so, but it gets tedious.
