    40 YEARS OF LYING PROPAGANDA.
    1970-- 2014..
    SPEARHEADED PRIMARILY BY THE DEM PARTY.
    I remember back in 1970 High School teacher screaming--GLOBAL COOLING GOING TO WIPE OUT
    TWO-THIRDS MANKIND IN THE NEXT 30/40 YEARS.
    It was late August in the South --I laughed at her , she got pissed off.
    She called me on it-insisted that I explain what was funny.
    I did..
    I stated, they can not accurately tell you the weather forecast for next month, nor if it will rain next week--however they can predict climate change 20/40 years out, which to me is preposterous.
    She then told the class to write a short essay on the subject, turn it in the next day.
    We did, I was the only one rejecting the prediction--She gave me a D+ ON MY ESSAY THAT USED
    LOGIC, COMMON SENSE AND SCIENCE TO DEFEAT THAT STUPID PROPAGANDA.
    I told her in about 15/20 years I'd look her up for an apology.
    Never got to as I heard after moving to Florida a decade later, she died in car wreck if memory serves
    me correct on that .. Sad to hear but....
    I really wanted to say--I told you so.... I still do.... --Tyr
    18 U.S. Code § 2381-Treason Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

    Are the cartoons really that far fetched? Did we not hear that crap over the years? Have any of them panned out to reality?

    I refuse to believe you are this daft. The cartoon suggests that those statements were scientific consensus at those dates which is patently false. Certainly there were reports and news items with similar statements, but so what. I can find you a news item today how Big Foot has been sighted. Many predictions are wrong, many scientists have been wrong, that doesn't make the overall science wrong. Look at science history man. This is extreme biased cherry picking.

    Ummm ... they're cartoons? They're supposed to be funny. Jim might be a lot of dumbass in one bag but he's not unintelligent. Most of us prefer to overlook the retarded suggestions and just laugh the joke/irony of the cartoon. I'm too logical. I rarely got Farside. Their idea of humor was beyond me. But lots of people loved it. I didn't bother pissing on their parade. Lots of people like cake too. I won't eat the sh*t. Doesn't mean someone else can't have it. I just wouldn't give them one if they were gay.

    And before you get your balls in an uproar, I ain't defending Jim. He doesn't need any help. I'm Mother Freakin' Teresa compared to him when he gets mad. I'm just going for the entertainment value here. I've been bored all day. No kid. Doing chores and lifting weights. So you go right ahead and keep pulling his string. I got two boxes of popcorn.

    Which is exactly why you don't make policy decisions based on unsettled "science".

    Unless you're daft, of course.

    I remember those arguments from the 70's to the present...

    The statements are actually statements made by climatology "EXPERTS" for the last nearly 50 years.

    They all supposedly had DATA to back them up...

    Just that they have been wrong at every turn...
    You know, the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing.

    Really, Pete ? Well, it doesn't do a lot to prove it RIGHT, either ... eh ?

    If the 'overall science' doesn't fit, or create worthwhile prognostications made on its behalf .. then WHY maintain any degree of faith in it ? Because Al Gore (Leftie) tells you to ... ??
