Why not? We’re getting our asses handed to us on every other issue that matters.
The earth has been warming and cooling for 4 billion years.
Get over it, Mike.
Newspapers have a huge carbon footprint.
Agreed.
Next the SCOTUS will rule that a 10% flat “climate change” tax surcharge executive order is enforceable.
The first Americans were shooting over a 2% tax on tea. You don’t think Obama is thinking about it?
I want real evidence. Until the I am a skeptic.
Dint ding! Winner!
For all conservatives supposed support of “big business,” big business has been the most effective enforcer of left position in the last ten years. We only have gay marriage today because big business enforced it. Climate change is being pushed by big business.
The article is published in WaPo, but it was written by Michael Gerson, who was a speech writer for George Bush.
As for SCOTUS, they have all ready handed down three important decisions on CO2:
Massachusetts v EPA(2007)
AEP v Connecticut(2011)
Utility Air Regulatory Group v EPA(2014)
In August, EPA will issue their final rule on Obama's Clean Power Plan and there will be lawsuits filed over that, which will have to ultimately be ruled on by SCOTUS.
In the 2007 decision(5-4), SCOTUS ruled that CO2 was a pollutant, and if EPA found CO2 to be a threat to the US(endangerment finding), then EPA should regulate CO2 with the Clean Air Act.
A speech writer opining on a scientific subject. Appeals to authority have been the hallmark of those who lack the ability to judge the science.
What he says is true.
Being against homosexuality is hate speech.
Criticizing people who are men calling themselves women, or white people calling themselves black, or Caucasians calling themselves Native American is hate speech.
Being against all racism including black racism is hate speech.
Objecting to throwing the Confederate flag down the memory hole is not only hate speech, it is open advocacy of killing people in a church.
Why should people who criticize the global warming religion be any different?
If by accident we are on our way to an ice age, it will just make the ice age that much worse and millions will starve. But since they will mostly be the poor and those in 3rd worlds, well, they should have spoken up.
This would be an all or nothing basis, put lives on the line those of you who feel so strongly in global warming.
As a rich American, I have a buying opportunity when the population of many 3rd world countries dies and there is no one left to pay taxes on land or support corrupt governments.
Let's get on with it. (/sarcasm)
The victory dance of the Emperor with “New” Clothes.
They’ll put a gun to your head and demand you embrace their religion.
Meh. I’ll bet Mike is grateful that projection is a painless process.
It is time for the entire world to have a FACTUAL discussion about the climate, rather than a Leftist purge of those who disagree with the fashion of the moment (which, not-so-coincidentally, happens to lead to the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of those who are doing the purging).
I hope that I live long enough to see the District of Criminals buried in 10 feet of snow during a “Global Warming” conference.
Same guys who wanted to torture Galileo and Copernicus for their outrageous and anti Science view that the earth and other planets revolved around the sun rather than the reverse.
We need an assault on a technological and Totalitarian worldview that treats humans as raw material to be hammered into useful shape, and reduces humans to mere taxpayers and servants of the State and treats inconvenient people who say that AGW is a Hoax as so much refuse.
The “cure” for globull warming is many, many thousands of times worse that even the worst scenario that they have dreamed up.
So much anti-Science from the Left makes it seem like we're living in a George Orwell play.
Hey Pontiff, 1984 was supposed to be a WARNING not a blueprint!
