		<description>Wow,

  After, on so many occasions, reading JaCCoff&#039;s psuedo scientific explanations of biblical events, such as the flood, suddenly, I find myself in total agreement.  I have stated it here, and other freethinker blogs:

  1) No scientific evidence exists to prove that carbon dioxide has any different insulating properties that any other naturally occurring gas in our atmosphere.

  2)  Science does exist that prove that any greenhouse effect is actually caused by water vapor.

  3)  Science proves that warm and cold cycles have always been part of earth&#039;s climatic cycles, even in historic times.

  4)  Data proves that the Earth has been in a decade long cooling cycle.

  5)  The presence of petroleum oil and natural gas in the Arctic Circle prove it was once a tropical swamp.

  6)  Al Gore is an asshole, assuming that if two things are occurring at the same time, they must be connected.  Bad science.

  And I could go on, and I do not wish to claim that as a general trend, the earth is not getting warmer, but I would put the idea to anyone who is not a moron, that if it weren&#039;t, we would still be living in the &quot;Ice Age&quot; when glaciers miles deep were carving out the Hudson River Basin and the New York harbors.  If any idiot thinks they can manipulate the cycle by bankrupting the coal industry, all they are doing is shitstomping America&#039;s last best chance at energy independance.  This based on an unsubstantiated radical unproven theory about cause and result.  INSANE!!!!!!!!

  These psuedo scientists have an agenda of their own, to create a sythetic demand for their unique expertise.  To pretend to become the saviors of the planet, when all they are is a bunch of lying turds trying to get famous.  And now that their scheme has been exposed, they are practicing damage control, like any politician.  But, as JaCCoff said, the genie is out of the bottle, the bell cannot be unrung.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Has he brought the hijacked emails up before?&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Yes - &amp; he was subsequently ignored the last time.
&lt;blockquote&gt;Also have not been too aware of the news-again, too much else going on- so I didn’t know about the story. I was thinking I just offered another side of it in my first post, but after re-reading, I see that I did commit smartassery in response to the tone of jcc’s initial post and the fact that it was OT, which I neglected to mention.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Hey, when little mouse used to talk to me, I committed that minor offense myself many times. No worries.
&lt;blockquote&gt;Your post makes me aware that I have been seriously neglecting my duties toward the various liberal conspiracies lately.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Uh-oh, rat&#039;s outta the bag! 
&lt;blockquote&gt;Although at the doctor the other day, the nurse took my temp by rubbing a wand across my forehead. I asked her if she was one o’ dem Reptilian aliens in disguise and reading the microchips they had planted in my head.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
See, I TOLD YOU dating David Icke was a bad idea. ;)</description>

		<description>karen:
&lt;blockquote&gt;I read the link in your first response and decided to see what was going on, as I hadn’t heard about this yet.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Which makes my point: ABC, NBC &amp; CBS &lt;b&gt;only&lt;/b&gt; report what’s good for liberals/liberalism (which is, by definition, bad for America) and embargo anything that is poisonous to, or contradicts their ultra-leftest worldview.&lt;blockquote&gt;What I found was, as usual, there is more than one side to a story.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Good, that puts you light-years ahead of the rest of your atheist buddies.&lt;blockquote&gt;Why don’t we wait till the investigation is over and see what chips fall to the floor, and where?&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;Which&lt;/i&gt; investigation?—the one into how the “scientific” community manipulated/distorted/ignored/destroyed the climate data, or the one into how that &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;conspiricy&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; was &lt;b&gt;finally&lt;/b&gt; exposed?&lt;blockquote&gt;Are you responsible for what others say to you?&lt;/blockquote&gt;I am &lt;i&gt;if&lt;/i&gt; I’m involved up to my eyeballs in a deliberate misrepresentation of facts…&lt;blockquote&gt;he explains the context of some of the mined quotes&lt;/blockquote&gt;Whether they were “mined” or not is beside the point—when they’re considered as a whole (i.e. in context), they demonstrate irrefutable malfeasance.&lt;blockquote&gt;More breaking news…&lt;/blockquote&gt;Uh, cultural impact: the Marxist choke-hold liberalism has on my country is showing strain.&lt;blockquote&gt;I doubt anyone disagrees that Americans are stupid, and growing more so.&lt;/blockquote&gt;And &lt;i&gt;why&lt;/i&gt; is that?—oh yeah, the Marxist choke-hold liberals have on our “educational” system.&lt;blockquote&gt;Nice to see that your Christian Love is still shining through.&lt;/blockquote&gt;How was pointing out the abject ignorance and stupidity of liberals a “lack of Christian love?”&lt;blockquote&gt;Was this last bit of snark one of those acts you commit “in the Lord”?&lt;/blockquote&gt;“Snark?”  Pointing out the folly of liberals is “snark?”&lt;blockquote&gt;...at the doctor the other day, the nurse took my temp by…&lt;/blockquote&gt;Enjoy it while you can.  Come this time next year, being as old as you are, your priority and permission to see a doctor will be determined by your all-knowing, benevolent messiah, Uh-bama.</description>

<blockquote><p>I read the link in your first response and decided to see what was going on, as I hadn’t heard about this yet.</p></blockquote>
<p>Which makes my point: ABC, NBC &amp; CBS <b>only</b> report what’s good for liberals/liberalism (which is, by definition, bad for America) and embargo anything that is poisonous to, or contradicts their ultra-leftest worldview.<br />
<blockquote>What I found was, as usual, there is more than one side to a story.</p></blockquote>
<p>Good, that puts you light-years ahead of the rest of your atheist buddies.<br />
<blockquote>Why don’t we wait till the investigation is over and see what chips fall to the floor, and where?</p></blockquote>
<p><i>Which</i> investigation?—the one into how the “scientific” community manipulated/distorted/ignored/destroyed the climate data, or the one into how that <i><b>conspiricy</b></i> was <b>finally</b> exposed?<br />
<blockquote>Are you responsible for what others say to you?</p></blockquote>
<p>I am <i>if</i> I’m involved up to my eyeballs in a deliberate misrepresentation of facts…<br />
<blockquote>he explains the context of some of the mined quotes</p></blockquote>
<p>Whether they were “mined” or not is beside the point—when they’re considered as a whole (i.e. in context), they demonstrate irrefutable malfeasance.<br />
<blockquote>More breaking news…</p></blockquote>
<p>Uh, cultural impact: the Marxist choke-hold liberalism has on my country is showing strain.<br />
<blockquote>I doubt anyone disagrees that Americans are stupid, and growing more so.</p></blockquote>
<p>And <i>why</i> is that?—oh yeah, the Marxist choke-hold liberals have on our “educational” system.<br />
<blockquote>Nice to see that your Christian Love is still shining through.</p></blockquote>
<p>How was pointing out the abject ignorance and stupidity of liberals a “lack of Christian love?”<br />
<blockquote>Was this last bit of snark one of those acts you commit “in the Lord”?</p></blockquote>
<p>“Snark?”  Pointing out the folly of liberals is “snark?”<br />
<blockquote>&#8230;at the doctor the other day, the nurse took my temp by…</p></blockquote>
<p>Enjoy it while you can.  Come this time next year, being as old as you are, your priority and permission to see a doctor will be determined by your all-knowing, benevolent messiah, Uh-bama.</p>

Has he brought the hijacked emails up before? I haven&#039;t been reading here much lately-too busy- and when I have, it&#039;s been skimming. Also have not been too aware of the news-again, too much else going on- so I didn&#039;t know about the story. I was thinking I just offered another side of it in my first post, but after re-reading, I see that I did commit smartassery in response to the tone of jcc&#039;s initial post and the fact that it was OT, which I neglected to mention.

Your post makes me aware that I have been seriously neglecting my duties toward the various liberal conspiracies lately. I must find a way to make amends! Although at the doctor the other day, the nurse took my temp by rubbing a wand across my forehead. I asked her if she was one o&#039; dem Reptilian aliens in disguise and reading the microchips they had planted in my head. (Hey- she actually got the joke and laughed! Or was that just a cover-up, cuz she really is a Reptillian?):)</description>
