“When we talk about it in more articulate ways, the American public doesn’t get it,” he said.

The entire purpose of the global warming hoax is NOT to “save the planet”, but to CONTROL people. - FocusNexus



You said it! And oh so correct!

Bingo! The “green” movement became the new home for communism after the fall of the Soviet Union.

He said he felt simple terms were the only ones the country could understand, that more sophisticated language was over the head of the general public.

“When we talk about it in more articulate ways, the American public doesn’t get it,” he said.

When did we go from 25 percent to 4 percent?

Maybe when they started counting China as a country? Don't know really...

But can he do without his computer? I suppose he has solar powered battery chargers that were made in a factory powered by electricity. Where did the fabric for his clothing come from and how was the fabric put together? How did he make his grill? Where did the axe come from that he used to cut the wood for his fire? Who made the matches?

After WWII, my father would not go camping and was never fond of picnics. He would tell us that he had camped and eaten outdoors for 3 years and that was enough to last a lifetime.

We have made plans to *camp* on our homestead, if necessary. It is daunting. We are seniors. Yet, we find ourselves looking forward to it if it at least awakens the idiots who voted in this horror.

It hasn’t even been a month since their coup. Most of them are still talking bravely of hypotheticals. Let’s see if the geniuses can avoid this reality and how smug they are in a year.

If he hadn't included atheists, I would have guessed he was amiable to Ayn Rand / Objectivism.

Proof: Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal, Capitalism Without Guilt: The Moral Case for Freedom, The Capitalist Manifesto, and Atlas Shrugged.

"Atheist" isn't a synonym for "communist". Sigh.

Expect Mr. Blankenship’s “apology” any day now. We can hear how he “misspoke” and now “regrets” his remarks.

Blankenship said “... Turn down your thermostats? Buy a smaller car? Conserve? I have spent quite a bit of time in Russia and China, and that’s the first stage. You go from having your own car to carpooling to riding the bus to mass transit. You eventually get to where you’re walking. You go from your own apartment and bathroom to sharing kitchens with four families. That’s what socialism and the elimination of capitalism and free enterprise is all about.”

That is absolutely brilliant and concise! That Gore/Pelosi/Ried and the envirowackos are crazy goes without saying.

Hope you’re right but the thought police these days seems to have ways of getting people to see the errors of their ways. But I HOPE you’re right!

The problem is that people have been dumbed down to the point that all they know is what Britney Spears was wearing the other day.

The enviro-idiots think they’ll be sipping Chardonnay from their Malibu cottages instead of sharing the coldwater flat with 4 other families.

They just don’t understand the way the real world works and we all suffer because of it. They vote with their fairy tale view of the world and then all have to live in the sh*t storm that that creates.

I've been living in WV and hearing Don Blankenship for the last seven years. This is the way he always speaks and I've yet to hear him back down on anything. Both the Democrat and Republican parties of WV hate him.

This coalman is beyond correct!

It was the abysmal Carter White House which started this sneaky creeping socialism which leads to communism.

The same type of elitist leftist totalitarianism shall continue under the Carter/Clinton top heavy Obama administration.

Slow motion economics

Get ready for phase two!
