I find it amusing to see this headline GOP hopes to make inroads with Hispanics on the day that this study is released Hispanics exceed Anglos in Harris County.

Hah. Texas is going to go Democratic by 2020 if not sooner, simply because of population shift.

I haven't read it yet, but a friend tells me that this Vanity Fair will wreck Rudy's campaign if anyone reads it:

Quick question: what do you think the political affiliation is of 95% of VF readers?

I mean, we're cool with Villiage Voice or Vanity Fair lying, it's when you guys get CBS News going on the document fabrication stuff that we get a bit concerned.

aren't most hispanics pretty solid Catholics? By 2020 it will be pretty clear that a vote for the Dems is a vote for one Islamic world.

What part of that VF piece is lies? Or are you just insinuating for kicks?

The effect of the correction on global temperatures is minor (some 1-2% less warming than originally thought), but the effect on the U.S. global warming propaganda machine could be huge.

I guess it's a good thing the U.S. isn't part of the planet and can't be affected by global warming. They sure showed that devious lefty propaganda machine!

We are totally self-sufficient, dumbass. That's why it doesn't matter if LA/Long Beach or the greater Houston area get bombed into oblivion -- it's not like we import stuff, or anything.

Fringey isn't geting sex so she can't concentrate- that explains why she says stupid shit, but you, you're not bright, but you have no short term excuse-

there is some small rise in temperature, and we know it is catastophic BECAUSE we have had the hottest years ever in the last few years, because otherwise you don't have any bad effect. But now you don't, except you can ignore facts some more and keep up the charade.

I know scoring points on the internet means a lot to you, but just take a step back and read what you're saying. If the average temperature of the planet were increasing, but the spikes were somewhere other than 1998, everything would be ok? Is a "bad effect" the unprecedented melting of the ice caps we're seeing right now? Rising sea levels? You want to tell me all of that is not happening? Bilmore said some strange shit, but he was never this dumb.

I don't care if the hottest year was 1998, 1968 or 1928. I didn't know what they thought it was before and I didn't much care, because I can look around me and see what's happening. I'm glad you have a nice little gotcha blog to tell you everything is hunky dory.

unprecedented?

Ty. Can we have a subboard with a test to get log on privelege?

so weed, your point is that you don't change your mind when the evidence reverses on you, because you know what algore and them told you is true, even though big parts of it turn out not be true. I might just as well say "I don't care that ice caps are melting because I can look and see that it isn't as hot as it was 60 years ago."

I was watching a history show about US and Japanese plans to invade/defend Japan.

In mid-1945 the US ordered 400,000 purple hearts in anticipation. We are still using them.

No political point, just a surprising factoid.

oh, and since you replied twice, here goes!

Is your mindset so warped that you can't even be pleased that we didn't have thwe hottest year ever? You want the world to die, so you can sit and think "Bush was wrong!" Man, you have kids, right?
