    You are wrong. The sky is black, with stars.

    The sky being blue is an illusion,due to rayleigh scattering. Blue light is more prone to reach you because it is being absorbed by the gas in the atmosphere... then scattered because it is short wave length light. The other colors of light... yellow,red,orange...are long wavelength light and pass srtaight through without being effected by the air.

    Of course not, any post that doesn't blame BO for the coming zombie apocalypse is officially null, void and subject to deletion and thread ban for the offending poster.

    What if I blame Nancy Pelosi? I more think of her when I think of an ugly zombie!

    Obama the traitor in fact WANTS the sky to be red, he is using Mother Nature to go around Mother Nature to get an Executive Order making the sky red. I wouldn't be surprised if the asshole cancels sunrise altogether.

    Did I mention that Michelle Obama is fat pig to?
