I see there's no reason to pretend the claims of right-wing denialists are based on facts.

I'd do so a third time, but facts make the anti-science blog-reading right whine and cry about Al Gore. And if there's anything I hate, it's the whining and crying of the anti-science right. So you guys just pretend you know what you're talking about; you guys just keep sticking to that science.
Yes yes.. you showed us! Why you have everything figured out, you are just the goto guy for all the straight information. No really, that is what we all think of you. We think you really know what you are talking about. You are really informed, really you are.

When I see Liberal progressives ban all plastics i will start to think about it. I mean ALL plastics. That cell phone case the plastic PC case, tv dash boards seat covers tables, paper wood, sliders All types, water base poly, oil base poly, anti theft packing. water bottles, all syn material made of a poly anything. line rope and straps made of oil based plastics, All cookware based on oil base plastics. All lawn furnishing based on oil plastics. All shipping packing based on plastics. All medical supplies TAXed to the top based on plastics, and no toxic wasted dumped into the sea.

You Libers will never live with out your plastics.

Why would the UK's Guardian care what Fox News, an American station, does?
This article about Fox News being responsible for brainwashing a majority of Americans against Global Warming is nonsense.
The Guardian should stick with criticizing its own citizens.

No , It was two very cold winters in Florida that debunked the global warming for me, plus the major snow storm in Jersey in 2010 , heard alot about that one,,,it closed our bridge for three days.. never happened before. Bucket end loaders had to be used to get ambulances to move as the snow plows were stranded.

Now what's your plan?
This is the question I have posed myself, as have others. I have never seen an answer.
