those who are seen as fearlessly patriotic and tirelessly push the idea that the sky is falling might have their own pocketbooks more in mind than your health and safety.

and those who say this is because glenn shot his mouth off last week might note that this has been ongoing since at least 2010.

On the one hand, I think that's awesome. They've been peddling gold on conservative talk radio for years, but they use a false narrative to sell it.

On the other hand, I do feel bad for people duped by this.

Who knew Conservative radio listeners were gullible?

You've not heard those ads, huh?

Ami, your response is just ironic considering that you're always claiming that the sky is falling because of Obama.

Touche', AG; however, nothing will outshadow the global warming fear-mongering from the left.

I just can't stand the mindless non thinking nature of Liberals. I will tell you the truth. I, literally, cry.

beck has been selling to the preppers and stoking paranoia about the government and imminent global financial collapse for years. "get a compound, get guns, have enough food for a year, BUY GOLD"

and baa baa CRY the gullible.

the hysterical notion that everyman-for-himself in a dog-eat-dog world is what's best for everyone seems to fool SOME OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME.

a tidal wave to hell indeed.

We're almost to the 400 million parts per million milestone. But that's not "fear-mongering" so much as just scientific measurement.

Leftists - armageddon via vengeful Mother Nature

Right Wing - armageddon via vengeful Old Testament God

amounts to the same BS in my book.

This scares me tbh. Someone is creating a tinderbox here. I don't believe it's accidental.

No one is disputing a rise in CO2--just that it doesn't equate in a correlational increase of temperature as predicted by the computer models. Or as computer statisticians call it: GIGO.

Just saw that Randall unregistered you. Wow.

Kat I'm going to miss you and your very insightful and wise perspectives. I honestly believe you were one of the very few good parts about this forum. As usual hypocrisy and biased behavior reign supreme in GU. Keep being you and all the best!

People have opinions, and those opinions will differ. As such, biases will always exist. She asked to be unregistered.

kat allow yourself the right to change your mind and to come back, even with a different username. others have done that, except they did it less dramatically, and it didn't look like they were furious at the place. it's a loss for lindaland if you decide to not post again.

but the world shines because you exist, wether or not on the internet.

In my many travels( and I have many because I am wild intellectually,although I am conservative in my actual life) I see a certain phenomenon at work.

When the vibration of any group changes, the people with the lower vibrations leave. This is akin to the bug devices with the vibrations that drive out insects

Happy Trails, Kat.
