Global Warming 'Greatest Scam in History'

He thinks that global warming is a nefarious creation of the United Nations and the "Liberals" to destroy the US economy and to initiate one-world government. Perhaps even more interestingly, the American religious right has latched onto the idea that any effort to recognize that global warming can be affected by human behavior is a denial of a Supreme Being. Dumbass - Elements of the religious right claim that. There are other elements that claim the opposite. You're right. I should have said "some." In any event, that raises two more questions. 1. What proportion of the religious right deny AGW? 2. What proportion of those who deny AGW are affiliated with the religious right? And it's sort of nostalgic seeing Ted Haggard cited as being an influential evangelical leader. |

As for question #2, I don't know, but I'll guess that quite a bit of it has to do with party ideologists. thanks, K. Gringioni. |

Global Warming a?~Greatest Scam in History'

That collision was set up many, many minutes before, when a 1/2 degree change in heading could still have made a difference. No joke - that damned ship is costing me sleep. With the ship stuck in SF being looked over, the containers on it are in limbo. The Hanshin folks need those containers back in China next week for our 18000 bike order to be loaded and arrive here before xmas. Now, we have to get Maersk or someone else to take the job, load our bikes and get the containers to Houston. If it doesn't get done - we won't have the bikes in time to build and give away to underprivileged local kids. Sigh. Read about the charity I work with at www.elvesandmore.org Just as well, coming from China the frames of those bicycles were likely built with titanium tubing salvaged from Chernobyl. -- Bill Asher |

I hope he's never introduced to Asher who would murder him in a second to protect his extremists views of a runaway global environmental catastrophe that is unstoppable unless he and Al Gore are given large amounts of money. Hey if Asher's going to get lots of money I hope he pays his LIVEDRUNK dues. |

Sven Nys did not win today. Therefore, global warming may has affected the
outcome of the cyclocross World Cup today in Pijnacker Nederlands. It's not really global "warming." It's more like global tepidization. wrote in message ... http://www.infowars.com/articles/sci...atest_scam.htm -- Davey Crockett |

In a sense, no one is steering the ship. Phil H |
