APA Pilot Running for Congress

As far as the "science" of global warming....it is mostly junk science.....The envirnonmental wackos want to put you and I out of work....

And you know this because you've studied this science and have a Ph.D in Atmospheric and Geological Sciences, like a lot of the "wackos" who write about this stuff do?

I can't understand why so many people who know relatively little about a topic automatically dismiss people who DO know about it for sake of convenience and, also, because ignorance is bliss.

FDR imprisoned Jap Americans, spied on people like a paranoid Stalin, admired Mussolini and Hitler's Fascism (before the war), strangled the freedom of the press and instituted a draft.

He also ordered all weapons confiscated from German Americans during the war......

Muslim enemy combatents who are POWs are treated better under Bush than Japanese Americans were treated under FDR....Hmmmmm......

You mean like Dr. Singer?

Nobody argues that climates don't change....They do....Warmer and colder....After all "global warming" started when the ice age started to end....Was that the fault of the internal combustion engine?

From the article:

"Singer insists he is not on the payroll of the energy industry, but admits he once accepted an unsolicited check from Exxon for $10,000." The article also states.

I do understand your point. How much of a difference humans can actually make is an issue, but there's nothing wrong with doing what you can do minimize a possible effect. And I'd lean more towards trusting the "mainstream scientific theories" than this one guy who took money from Exxon. That's huge, btw.

Many of us "right wingers" are also hunters and fishermen.....We want a clean environment just as much as you do.....We don't want to harm the economy however doing things that are questionable.....

China is far more dangerous to the environment than my two stroke outboard....

Transporting oil in tankers from the middle east is more dangerous than drilling it here....

As far as Singer getting an "UNSOLICITED check" from Exxon....DUH....Aren't corporations allowed to refute bad science with scientists?
