Of course, the fact that we're responsible for hundreds of thousands of casualties for what reason? is not a factor in the behavior of jihadists.

In other words, don't express what you really believe but rather what will place you in the best light. Encouraging.

In part. We've been in a warming trending since the 17th century. That's natural. However, the extent of the increase and the rapidity of the increase are logically due to the extraordinary amounts of fossil fuels burned during the English and American industrial revolutions. We are and have...

Surely you can't expect a conservative to study the facts of the matter when a knee-jerk response is so much easier (not requiring any thought or anything). Sort of like the issue of jobs . . .

An increase in the availability of jobs would be helpful.

As did you. That carbon dioxide is breathable has nothing to do with the problem.

Interesting. Thank you.

It began with a few small strange patches of slime, clinging to the rocks of the Heber River in Canada. Within a year, the patches had become thick, blooming mats. Within a few years the mats had grown into a giant green snot. And within a few decades this snot had spread around the world...

The Religious Right’s Slow-Motion Suicide I’m not sure what’s come over me and I suppose it’ll pass, but at just this moment I’m feeling a little bit sorry for evangelical conservatives. They were apparently pretty droopy, these proceedings over the weekend at the Values Voter Summit, as my...

Though I can't say for sure without seeing the context, I suspect that like so many others they're confusing "climate" with "weather".
