This was EXCELLENT!

Yep. This is why I hate Reps just as much as Dems.

Using Fear to get into office. BS.

So we ran out of "care" for US people complaining about "high" gas prices, when they're still lower than our prices a decade ago.

That right there is the shittiest excuse not to speak up ever invented.

Don't complain that you are hungry, there are people starving in Africa.

Don't complain about how little money you have, there are people with no houses.

Don't complain about the government sticking Jupiter's Cock into everything you do, there are European countries that let their governments use them as slave labor.

Don't speak up about war, there are people actually there dying.

Don't say a word about marriage inequality, there are places where you can be killed just because you know someone who has a dog that came from the house of a man who shops at a store that sells crops from an American company that might have a homosexual employee.

Don't complain about taxes, Danishlanders shit money and their government wipes their asses.

You realize I replied to the contents of the video right? You sound like someone who readily believes what they're told and only requires quick pieces of information and buzzwords to lock onto. That's fine if you are, but it makes you sound ignorant if you really think that video is targeting an actual problem that exists. If I was an oil company that's the kind of video I would make since it gives the intended audience an emotional attachment to the argument even if it's a red herring for a non-problem. Either that or it's advocating we no longer stress environmentalism in schools. You'd fit into the Ron Paul camp in eliminating the EPA and other "regulations" that hold back the oil industry. I mean they can't profit if we keep holding them responsible at the federal level.

If Ron Paul is so good for these corporations, like people keep saying, why don't they support him?

**Malorn** · 2012-04-25, 01:22 PM

Meh.

He's referring to this:

If you continued to watch after the global cooling part you would have seen he then referenced Global warming and how we now call it "Climate change" because both warming and cooling have been shown to be big piles of crap.

In the 70's people taught about global cooling and how Man's industry was to blame. Then we make the same claim about global warming. And now it's "climate change" - that way we can safely refer to any change in weather as being caused by man.

The video isn't claiming global cooling, or global warming. It's mocking the idiocy that has been crippling our economies for decades on the premise of global warming/cooling/climate change, all while other countries move ahead of us in industry because we gimped ourselves.

Do... do I need to tell you that Time isnt a scientific publication? And that media will run with a good story despite the truth?
Do you know how many papers in the 1970's were about global warming trends? 44. global cooling? 7.
It's an outright lie to say that Scientists agreed in the 70's that the earth was cooling.

And warming is the global trend, every reputable climate science group agrees with that.

It's easier to bribe one group of politicians rather than 50?

Cause Ron Paul, who still can yet pull a Harding, is 50 politicians.

Perhaps it is because he won't accept money from them...

**Malorn** · 2012-04-25, 01:42 PM

Yes climate changes, but not at this speed and when this change in climate starts when we really started pumping out the C02... well you can put two and two together.
