Hey, Tim, Bob, Chris, George, and Wolf: Sure, science stuff is a bummer, but shouldn't we know a bit about our next president's thinking on climate?

>

Our energy-and-environment guru A Siegel tips us off to a call to action by the League of Conservation Voters, focusing on the Sunday gabfests' attention to climate issues, which is even more pathetic than you probably supposed:


The climate crisis will be the biggest
challenge facing the next president.

But the top Sunday hosts
don't seem to think so.

In 2007, they have asked:

2275 Questions

3 mentioned global warming

What are they waiting for?

Hmm. What are they waiting for? Well, a climate-change-related sex scandal might get their attention.

(On this LCV webpage there's a petition you can sign, if that sort of thing excites you.)

Come on guy, you are months behind! Global Climate Change is the new pharase because the science just doesn't fit well with Global Warming. I mean like our December snow cover is more like February but you can still blame it on Global Climate Change. However, it sounds stupid to even the most uninformed to blame it on Global Warming!

So, do your "cause" a favor and use the right terminology.

As usual, Al, you don't have a clue what you're talking about. Do you ever? Have you seen the stastics about planetary warmth?

"Climate change" is the more descriptive phrase, because the prob lem isn't just "warming"--it's the havoc being wrought in all kinds of ways all over the earth. The tragedy is that idiots like you and your criminally moronic president can blither while people with working brains are trying to deal with these issues while there's still time.

Or haven't you noticed how your moron-hero has himself backed off his lying imbecilities to slightly less imbecilic ones?

Well said Keninny! Both the post and the reply comments! Some people just have a problem with talk of what's going on with our world climate. Hey, if ya don't talk about it, and instruct the media not to talk about it, it won't exist! Don't worry. It's just the Bush Taliban (so-called Christians) and their war on science. Sad thing is, when they finally wake up and want saving from FEMA or someone becuse the water is lapping at their shoes, we'll be a bankrupt country and they'll be on their own wondering where the money went.

Keni is hot, don't stop.

"Christianist", is a new term, kind of updating the old "Dominionist", for the 3rd Wave Bush2 Christians; even scarier, since the Lord has EMPOWERED them to do the Right Thing! I think it is important to use Christianist when appropriate as there are a whole lot of good Christians out there who detest the Bush2 Christianist.

Bush2 set the real Christianity back 50 years. Even MORE of the world trembles now when they see that white cross coming over the hill...somebody's gonna get killed!

Chesterton unfortunately has turned out to be more of a prophet than the commentator he intended to be.
"Christianity hasn't failed, it's just never been tried".

"With us or against us, Dead or alive"...ya know what i mean?
