The left just wants to ruin all great American holidays, what garbage.

What's next, live Christmas trees outlawed because of negative carbon sequestering?

I know that thinking about Al Gore could ruin my Thanksgiving dinner. This piece is just a seasonal excuse for a Liberal rant.

And people think watching the “educational” pravda media channels makes them smarter.

Read a book. Preferably one that predates Karl Marx.

If by climate change, they mean global warming that melts the polar ice caps, how will there be water shortages?

No, but learning that your Aunt who’s hosting Thanksgiving dinner used the turkey baster to impregnate her lifepartner might.

Thanksgiving Day foods could eventually be affected

Warmer temperatures can impact turkey meat

Water shortages could also lead to more costly

Climate change could one day affect the cost and quality

dry turkey meat along with expensive fruits, vegetables and potatoes could be on the horizon

The usual star of the Thanksgiving Day feast, roast turkey, could suffer in quality as a result.

"Climate change could affect meat quality in two ways

Shut the hell up, Al.

Yes, we know it's you.

Save Thanksgiving! Support left-wing psuedo-science and fraudulent data about global warming and you’ll still be able to eat Turkey. Oppose us and you’ll be drinking ditch water and eating beans and rice when you’re lucky.

Be afraid. Your families heads are going to bake in the heat unless Algore and Soros get to make billions trading carbon credits.

And they claimed that the "Red Menace" was all built on unfounded hype and hysteria. The Green Menace is built on lies. Lies from socialist red diaper doper babies.

Those solar waves on the sun are bigger than the Earth. Man's control on the climate (deliberate or accidental) is miniscule at best.

Thanksgiving is defined by me as a state of mind for being THANKFUL and not by the food I eat....

If I’m starving and eat the bark off a tree, trust me, I’ll be thankful that some bark is available...

JMO..
