  • Obama's Options

    Re Barack's green credential, if any, would you care to offer odds on his
    (1)becoming Prez,
    (2)being able to withstand special interests
    (3)surviving.
    I'm too old & cynical, having seen the same promise, in 3 great anglophon democracies, turn to dust & ashes within months not years.
    The German Greens split into Fundies & Prags even before getting into a coalition government, whereupon one of them (Fischka) became a war mongering Foreign Minister.
    It is almost inevitable givene the massive disconnect between what people SAy and what they Do. In amerika that fracture is even more serious, having lived off the fat of the rest of the world for the last 3 generations, there isn't a hope that can be resolved.On Wisconsin goes to Obama and McCain posted 1 year, 9 months ago 2 Responses

  • parotest?

    I'm not clear on what the problem is - someone doesn't like Disneyfied enviro-progs? Don't watch them is the banal answer but, to paraphrase Burke, "for crap to indundate, it only needs advertisers" or, put another way, "What does it take to be a Leader?":Ans. witless followers.

  • If Only

    From beyond your shores, there's a saying -
    "Since the entire world is affected (usually adversely)by the US President, the entire world should get a vote."
    The corollary is -
    "Given the creeps, cretins & crooks they've elcted since 1960, amerikans should NOT be allowed to vote without adult supervision."

  • URBANOIDS

    In the unlikely event that people who live in cities give a rat's about anything except their concrete environs, they ARE by definition either ignorant or arrogant if they don't learn that what they eat comes out of the ground not out of the corner store.On Schools should be talking about climate change solutions posted 1 year, 10 months ago 63 Responses

  • Nucbuddy's Vandalism

    Interesting that, having sabotaged every constructive comment by other posters, this entity cries 'vandalism'.
    In the military this attitude is punishable as "dumb insolence", defined as not actually breaking a rule or regulation but acting as if possessed of barely double digit IQ, in defiance.
    Nobody could be as pig ignorant as Nucbuddy pretends so there are two possibilities

    1. playing devil's advocate
    2. one of those who permeate all blogs deemed to threaten the current Old World Order.
    This person is tagged as a parent - if so you must hate not only your children but descendants, if any.
    Be constructive and read the detailed replies others of good will have posted to your niggles.
    Or read Rudyard Kipling's short stroy "Pig", it's onlya dozen pages and exemplifies what you are doing.On Schools should be talking about climate change solutions posted 1 year, 10 months ago 63 Responses

  • Debunking S&N

    "..humans must limit their consumption and sacrifice their way of life.. " - no, not humans per se, but cetainly white westerners as an overconsuming group and amerikans as the greatest overconsumers (in toto & per capita)of all. Odd that the quality of life of an ice bound Swede or Finn is higher than an amerikan with about 40% of the average energy consumption (apart from other resources)On Why bother criticizing S&N? posted 2 years, 1 month ago 21 Responses
