Maybe people should start using the correct term, climate change, it might help reduce the misunderstanding. In some areas there will be cooling and others there will be warming. But overall, the temperature of the atmosphere has risen. This is due to the fact that what heat comes down to us, it is bounced back toward space, but we have an ...

Ask those who disbelieve to go out in a park on a hot day and take a thermometer and get a reading. Then tell them to drive to a parking lot and take a reading. You can suggest they try sitting in their car with the windows rolled up and take a reading too, but that is kind of cruel. ;) But I must say a really good example of what a greenhouse effect is like. LOL

Isn't Rupert Murdoch a crazy old senile immigrant? Why does he have power over ALL of our News Media?

Because he owns the media.

I can't stand them. No other way to describe it.

Can anyone say the word: RACISM?
That is the main problem with the R's. Every time I think I am exaggerating in thinking that I hear one of them come out with a racist remark.

During the Roman Empire, Senetors such as Lieberman, were poisened, or died of venom from snake bites.or died in the senate floor, of knife wounds, no guns at the time.

End our boondoggle invasions ("wars") started by Bush and we'd have enough for health care - plus then some. These politicians like Lieberman should "do their math" or shut up.

No, D.K., Murdoch/News Corporation does not own the Enquirer. But News Corp. does own the NY Post and a number of London tabloids.

Come to think of it, the Enquirer would actually ADD class to his stable of newspapers.

The editorial board of the Washington Times is notorious for instructing their reports to write with a conservative slant. Yeah, they're a trustworthy news source.

/rawr!! go get him bill!

More republican lies. Who was that Nazi in Hitler's service that said "If you repeat a lie often enough it will eventually be accepted as fact"? The republican lie machine is a marvel.

I don't hate the right-wing-nuts, I just think they have left hand threads.

Army Intelligence..what an oxymoron.. I figured the I was personally responsible for there being an "all volunteer" Army..but after being drafted in 1969 I can tell you that I am not surprised that a Major, running around in full Arab garb did NOT raise eyebrows...in Vietnam a Colonel could walk around in a silk dress and stiletto heels and the other officers would probably complimented the Colonel.

What Gretchen said is well documented. You can find any number of articles with Army recruiters willing to admit - off-the-record of course - how standards have been lowered, and lies have been told, just to get a body. The real question with this man is why a psychiatrist's request not to be sent to a country and fight people who could be his ...

The military SHOULD have known what was going on with this man, they just didn't WANT to, because they would have lost a valuable piece of goods - so they didn't want to see he was damaged goods.

And yet the GOP claims its not racist.

Unreal!
