I wouldn't know what Rush Limbaugh says about it since I don't listen to him.

So you admit that global temperatures rose and fell over time. And as far as we know, there wasn't anything causing that to happen which mankind had an effect on. Therefore, what makes you think today is any different?

Plus, you seem convinced by someone that temperatures are rising rapidly?

The truth is that they haven't and that's what the global warming scientists were baffled by.

Thanks for the link to Al Gore although one has to take an article that starts off with "In this lightly edited interview transcript"with a grain of salt,It would be a bit of a stretch to say in that article he again equated GW deniers with racists, apartheid, and homophobes
.Is this what you base that claim on?

If so you are taking what he says out of context as reading on its apparent he was using the narrative to describe the nuclear arms race.
You're welcome.

Actually he talks about it in more than one place in that transcript. And what I said was he is EQUATING global warming deniers to racists, homophobes, and apartheid....which I think is an accurate assessment.

Fox news is a propaganda machine. Just like how Hitler thrived on living on people's fears, FOX works the same.

What's so fair and balanced about FOX.

I always thought when someone LIES to my face, I should not trust them. Yet, so many millions of Americans seem to be okay with people lying to them, like FOX. Haha.
