    I will appeal to the serious fact-based media outlets such as Forbes (which if anything tends towards the Right) rather than the Trump propaganda outlets favored by you.

    • My dear sweet bag of wind, population growth may contribute to Global Warming, but it has nothing to do with whether or not Global Warming is true. People like you can use excuses like" a single professer once wrote a book 52 years ago that didn't quite pan out in order to support your ignorant disregard for the facts concerning Global Warming, but the truth of it is staring you in the face.

          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                If previous failed predictions have been the driving influence behind major environmental policies through the years then hasn’t the failed prediction successfully served its purpose?

                If someone is in the backseat repeatedly telling us that we will be driving past a McDonald’s unless we change course and we do then it’s a little unfair if the next time they say that we turn around and say ‘you’ve been saying that for years and we have never driven past a McDonald’s so I don’t believe you now’.

                    Maybe a bit, but the big issues the doom and gloom people have is they assume a lot and get a lot of their assumptions wrong.

                    • Apparently Nutsy Pelosi wasn't pre-tearing the speech because she was planning to make a scene at the conclusion of the State of the Union. Rather, she was simply using small tears to mark pages that she thought were "rememberable".


                      You'd have to be as dumb as Tassman and JimL to believe that.

                        I don't care what the reason was. All I know is that it was a beautiful thing to see after listening to that pathetic SOTU speach.

                          Yeah, celebrating returning veterans, record employment numbers, etc is pathetic to you leftist anti-American.

                            Only 'true believers' like you can take seriously Trump's combination of reality show and election rally SOTU, complete with sentimental showbiz moments worthy of the Oscar Show. As one can predict from this liar: "The president's address included false and misleading claims on jobs, wages, energy, immigration and more".

                            But of course.

                              The SOTU has not been anything else for decades. But you'd have to know more than CNN or MSNBC spoon feeds you foreigners. Regardless, there were several moments worth praising, and JimL did nothing to distinguish them from the campaigning stuff. He called it ALL "pathetic", which betrays his hyper-partisan hatred. He's a good little leftist after all.

                                But, but, does this mean the sun doesn't rise and set every day? This means we HAVE to say instead that the earth has revolved another half turn???
