Hey Captain, do you ever ask yourself why the stories like that one about the stuck ship are big on fox, but predictions of fringe science global warming extremists are not ?

Consider this timeline:

* Late 2007: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) announces that the planet will see a one degree Celsius temperature increase due to climate change by 2100.

* Late 2008: The Hadley Centre for Meteorological Research predicts a 2C increase by 2100.

* Mid-2009: The U.N. Environment Programme predicts a 3.5C increase by 2100. Such an increase would remove habitat for human beings on this planet, as nearly all the plankton in the oceans would be destroyed, and associated temperature swings would kill off many land plants. Humans have never lived on a planet at 3.5C above baseline.

* October 2009: The Hadley Centre for Meteorological Research releases an updated prediction, suggesting a 4C temperature increase by 2060.

* November 2009: The Global Carbon Project, which monitors the global carbon cycle, and the Copenhagen Diagnosis, a climate science report, predict 6C and 7C temperature increases, respectively, by 2100.

* December 2010: The U.N. Environment Programme predicts up to a 5C increase by 2050.

* 2012: The conservative International Energy Agency’s World Energy Outlook report for that year states that we are on track to reach a 2C increase by 2017.

* November 2013: The International Energy Agency predicts a 3.5C increase by 2035.

WOW! The UNtrustworthy are certainly in control of what information is apparent to the people!

Say hey! This was in the Wall Street Journal on March 30, 1999. Note "... how much it will buy."

Holy cow/interesting/compelling ...!

And where is it up to date??? Right here ... see the first chart shown in this thread.

Miley Cyrus should do an Ayn Rand biopic with a tame baboon playing Frank O'Connor.

Ayn Rand, twerking and flashing camel toe. It would take a baboon to go ape shit over that.

I would like it better if the ape were rabid and went around biting liberals and pinkos on Ayn's command.

They have vowed to give Putin chlamydia, yeast and herpes if he doesn't step down from power.

Maybe they could be re-named "Pussy Rot". "We'll ride your face and ferment your nose."

Please stop calling it "Bank of America"; the correct usage is "Skank of America."

Well... if we're talking Satan here, nobody can fill that role like Skank Of America. Remember when artists told it it like it is ?

"Mama, she keeps them unprepared
To meet the enemy
That's comin' unto us
Teach them that evil dwells across the sea
Lives in a mountain
Like they see on TV

Down in the heart of town
The Devil dresses up
He keeps his nails clean
Did you think he'd be a boogeyman?"

My payment was about $100 more than my property tax payment, affordability eroded along with my salary, all other costs still going up, I had to let the place go to the next buyer.

affordability is all about monthly payment which is still very low compared to the last few decades due to STILL-VERY-LOW interest rates. how about a real chart?

"being white trash poor farmer working with black farmers in the fields
hoeing cotton."

Ya, po whiiiiiite trash, but with a scholarship to LSU. And a master's and bachelor's degree. If that ain't white priveledge, then what is?

Robertson received a bachelor's degree in physical education and a master's in education.[15

As an athlete in high school, Robertson was all-state in football, baseball, and track, which afforded him the opportunity to attend Louisiana Tech University in Ruston on a football scholarship in the late 1960s.[8] There he played first-string quarterback for the Bulldogs, ahead of Pro Football Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw,[9][10] the first overall pick in the 1970 NFL Draft. When he arrived at Tech in 1966, Bradshaw caused a media frenzy on account of his reputation of being a football sensation from nearby Shreveport.[11][12] Robertson was a year ahead of Bradshaw, and was the starter for two seasons in 1966 and 1967, and chose not to play in 1968.[13]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Robertson

What bothers me more than what Mr Robertson said was the reaction from some on the right to almost immediately turn this into yet another "Liberals Versus Conservatives" pissing contest, with little if any of their arguments or points having anything to do with what was said. Some of the comments being made are outright disgusting. Some people need to seriously grow up and act with an IQ beyond their shoe size

Racism- no matter what political allegiances one might have- is NOT acceptable. I grew up in the South, and while racism exists everywhere, to suggest that things were all peachy-keen back then in the South- or frankly anywhere else in the country- is a bunch of bullshit. I am in my 30's but even as a teenager I heard some utter trash coming out of people's mouths in regards to other races.

Lucky for us, those who make racist remarks are in the minority: They do not represent the ideals of what this country and its constitution stands for.

All the people who wrote the US constitution did so with the understanding that the USA was created by Whites for the benefit of Whites only. US citizens before the 1960's believed this fact. To try to change this made you a traitor.

There was no nonwhite immigration before the 1960's. US citizens were proud to live in a racially homogenous country before the 1960's.

What you consider 'racism' was accepted as a universal fact that all people have a right to live in a racially homogenous land. The USA is this land for western European whites.

Many studies have shown that racially homogenous countries are happier and have a higher level of trust among citizens. Forced diversity destroyed the natural trust between citizens previously white countries had.

Diversity is only pushed in white countries. Non white countries do not practice diversity.

The constitution is a written document with guaranteed rights which are spelled out very clearly. There is nowhere in that document that claims any intent from its authors. As such, your argument is not an argument, but rather an assertion based on personal opinion instead of facts, and hence the remainder of your commentary is nonsense.

Actions speak louder than words. It is a fact that there was no nonwhite immigration before the 1960's.

Racial homogeneity was such a basic part of life that it did not need to be spelled out. The founding fathers could not fathom a world where Whites gave up their lives and prosperity so that nonwhites can attempt to create something that they failed to create in their own country.

Yeah, I had 3 extreme conservative(not quite tepublicans)relatives(wife's) that I argued with recently about what Robertson said and how offensive it was, along with his BS implications. Of those 3, NONE of them had ever seen the show and 2 of them have neither cable nor a satelite dish to even get A&E, and not only were they defending him, but were actually giddy about what he said and it kind of gave them the pathetic courage to expand upon his rants with rants of their own.

Not only did they see nothing at all wrong with their thoughts and words, they felt that they were entitled to feel that way and say similar or worse things without any consequences.
The loudest and most obnoxious of the 3 has an adult son with his kids on welfare of every type too, not to mention that all 3 with 1 more than most people, are VERY religous.

I pointed out their hypocrisy and the irony of it and they didn't even get that.

Now you're just proving your stupidity and the fact that you're full of shit.

The foundation of your argument is totally wrong. There's no sense in trying to continue a conversation when your side of it is nowhere near being attached to reality. You are wrong. Plain and simple. That's all I have to say about it because I'm not going to waste my time by even entertaining the notion that what you have to say deserves the privilege of further attention.

Call it Crazy says

The question is, have YOU ever watched the show??

Yes, and I couldn't stand it enough to watch it to the end of the show, or about 10-20 minutes. Too much of the scripted stupidity by stupid people, to try and act MORE stupidly.

As I have said before, that show is neither arts OR entertainment.

This is more fact supporting my argument that there was very little nonwhite immigration into the US before the 1960's.

The USA was not built on diversity. No country has excelled with or survived a racially diverse population.

Quite correct.
It is required Liberal Indoctrination.

I'm not sure: I think it's because I hate freedom and wish abortion upon all our unborns, as well as deaths for all the ladies.

I should show more gratitude for institutions which keep all that taxpayer money safe in the hands of their executives and shareholders.

I like Wells Fargo. They gave me a free toaster oven once, and as many refrigerator magnets as my refrigerator will carry.

What??

Well, blame it on your ancestors. They are the ones who decided to 'import' hundreds of thousands of Africans and enslave them.
We have a self imposed racially diverse population. The african did not come of their own free will.

Therefore, we owe it to them to expose them to the teachings and honed thought processes that have enabled the white man to achieve a higher IQ.

As I've stated before, time will make us all equal in intelligence and the racial dividers on all sides of the kaleidoscope will be the ones left behind.

Dude, what took you so long? The first day of the year was like 16 minutes over when you posted this. I expected such an important post to be sent out as soon as the ball in NYC hit the ground.

There's no better way to start a new year than by skull-fucking a banker.

You know they do that so that you're refrigerator will topple over from the weight of all the magnets and pin you to the ground where you will slowly die of internal bleeding all while they foreclose on your house.

Never trust a bank.

He's a racial divider.
His type will be around exploiting for the next 4-5 generations...
