washington post hmm what a unbiased paper /sarcasm

well i guess if u could read i was saying that the government has been running businesses out of our country b/c of the emission taxes its a fact. and the hybrid car is another form of control by the liberals to tell us what we should do! use less oil/gas. but im tellin u i cant afford a hybrid most americans cant

ya ur prolly right with all the scientists believeing. i guess i shoulda said all the scientists who dont have another liberal agenda. ok show me where u got 99.9% believe it thats the real ridiculous statement!

Unbiased or not, the article does cite its sources, so bias does not play a factor here.

Considering gas prices, hybrids are much cheaper than most other cars. And I believe you said a few posts ago that "its ok ill still use my old fashioned light bulbs and drive my hummer" Hummers are far more expensive than hybrids.

no it does matter if its unbiased cuz liberals want control and will or say anything to get control. And u have to read more into it cuz they have more than one agenda

no the actual price for a hybrid. they go from 20K to 40K
and the hummer comment was just to say that im not ganna stop using oil..i myself dont drive a hummer. and gas prices have nuttin to do with the fact that i dont have the money to buy the damn car in the 1st place

Conservatives want control just as much as liberals do. Just look at Bush. And don't try to say that only liberals lie. Everyone involved in politics lies, it's just that conservatives tend to lie for their own benefit, while liberals generally lie to help the country.

Over the course of 1-2 years, the extra gas prices plus the original price will be greater than the price of a hybrid, You may be paying 20k instead of 18k for a hybrid, but in the end you will reap the rewards. And sometimes, paying a little extra is worth it if you are helping to save the world. You don't have 20k? How much are you expecting to buy a car for?...

man its a sad thing that suttin that involves the whole world becomes political.

what do u mean look at Bush? when u say liberal what do u think expansion of government and when u think conservative its less government.

yes all politicians lie but liberals and some republicans lie for them selves not to help the country.

thats my point how many people can say that they have 20K to just throw into a car. and even used for a good one is 8 or 9 grand.

but y should i pay a lil extra for suttin i dont think is saving the world?

Bush expanded the powers of the presidency more than any liberal in the last 60 years.

How would lying about global warming allow liberals to help themselves?

The money you will save on gas over many years will make up for the extra expense. And if you don't have enough right now for a hybrid, just lease it.
Quote:

Because an overwhelming amount of scientists think it is saving the world.

If this is all liberal propaganda, then why do so many scientists who are completely unrelated to the Democrats agree that huge numbers of plants and animal species (including polar bears) are dying out?

by putting so much guilt on the american people that the way they live there life is so horribly wrong and they have to change is all another form of control.so they put this hoax up and tell us we need to cut back on emissions and energy when we have nuttin to do with the earth warming. liberals feel they know better for the american people then we do. its all about expanding government.

They are certainly not back to normal... how could you say that?

Well, yeah, highly-educated and experienced people are generally better apt to tell us how to live our lives than the average Alabama dude who spends his whole day hunting and watching NASCAR. Liberals don't want to just arbitrarily expand the government. They want to expand it to help poor people and to keep the middle class afloat.

You're right, saving a few bucks is more important than helping to save the world.

They are virtually all of the scientists around the world. They are in no way related to Al Gore. I have to make the distinction between liberals and democrats? You've been using them interchangeably this whole time.

You need to learn English. Liberals not in the Democratic party? Huh?

LOL? Gore has no scientists on his side; all of the research from his movie was conducted before he even became interested in global warming prevention.

First of all, they probably do know how to run your life better than you, since you are an idiot. However, that is irrelevant since the government isn't trying to tell you how to run your life anyway, it's trying to help you run it.[/quote]

You may also want to note that contrary to popular belief, "suttin" isn't a word.

The comma after 'cooler' is superfluous.

The only correlation between global warming and liberals is that liberals are generally much smarter than conservatives the same way most people who believe in global warming are much smarter than people who do not.


This is a run-on sentence.

So basically, your post stated some information that was not backed up, and most of what you posted was wrong.


This requires another comma before 'basically'.


snoopster wrote:
Your post is humorous in that it is wrong in almost every aspect, as well as ironic in that it claims "humans are ignorant," yet it is you that ignore everything that scientists have said and what I have said in my post.


The comma after 'ignorant' belongs outside the quotations. Additionally, someone claiming that humans are ignorant while ignoring data is hypocritical, not ironic.


snoopster wrote:
You are, without a doubt, one of the most ignorant.


This is a sentence fragment.

A lot of people know about global warming, but don't realize how great of a threat it is or that they can take action to help.


This is a run-on sentence.

I mean, 99.9% of scientists believe in global warming. How could you want more than that?


While not grammatically incorrect, this is wrong in almost every other way. It is an appeal to authority, it suggests that science is democratic, and it simply is not true. A link disproving this claim is provided below.

Grammar on the internet doesn't need to be perfect, as long as it is not bad enough that one cannot tell what another is saying. In my 500+ sentences in this thread, you found about five instances where my grammar was not perfect. I rush when I write on the internet and am thus bound to make a few grammatical errors, but it doesn't stop anyone from understanding what I am trying to say. kokusho6's grammar, on the other hand, is so unbelievably horrendous that I often have no idea what he is talking about.


I'm tired of people posting without having read my other posts. I'm also tired of having to disprove the same old arguments global warming skeptics repeat every time.

In summary:

-The temperatures of 2006, 2007 and 2008 do not point to a reversed trend of global warming. Sources: see previous posts.
-The sun does not correspond with the perceived global warming. This is not due to warming lag, because at some times it does correspond (as was shown in the swindle film), while at others it doesn't.
-The IPCC is not a political body of people who don't know what they're talking about and only look at manmade stuff for the causes of global warming. It's a body of scientists who spend several pages in their report on the solar hypothesis.
-Global Warming on other planets is overrated, especially because climates there work completely differently than they do here.

None of that even addresses the fact that your statement saying that 99.9% of scientists agree with global warming was proven false.
