#1  Squirrel!!

#2  Getting desperate.
ANY old port in a storm.

#3  Desperate and playing to the base. Climate issues don't even make it onto the list of voter concerns these days.
Posted by: trailing wife || 05/05/2014 13:52 Comments || Top||

#4  Climate always changes. We do not live in a static world. Watch yer wallet.
Posted by: Alaska Paul || 05/05/2014 14:17 Comments || Top||

#5  Around here the temperature changes around 30-40 degrees every year - actually twice a year - up in the spring-summer and down in the fall-winter.

Must be Bush'es fault!

#6  They want to change the climate? That's great news! They should make the climate warmer. Warm climate has historically always been associated with greater prosperity.

Snark of the day.

#7  Today on the Weather channel they spewed the typical rhetoric on global warming. So one sided. I am so glad I have turned away from such propaganda.

#8  Today: Homoeopathic levels of CO2 will cook the entire planet.
Tomorrow: Homoeopathic rations of treatment will cure everyone!.

#9  The cure is a wallet phlebotomy.

And recite 100 Hail Al Gores

Podesta: Congress Can't Stop Obama On Global Warming
Posted by: DarthVader || 05/05/2014 17:56 || Comments || Link || [7 views] Top|| File under:

#1  Emperor Obama to strike again at the heart of the evil American economy.
Posted by: DarthVader || 05/05/2014 17:56 Comments || Top||

#2  He's probably right. Until Congress grows a pair, they can't stop Obama on anything.
Posted by: Rambler in Virginia || 05/05/2014 18:32 Comments || Top||

#3  Obama can't stop global warming.
Congress won't stop Obama from doing things claiming he's going to stop global warming.

#4  Let's see how we feel about that after November.
Posted by: Ebbang Uluque6305 || 05/05/2014 19:26 Comments || Top||

#5  Congress can defund the GIVERnment; they just chose not to.

#1  Yes, Smith Electric does sound like a new fangled typewriter company.
Posted by: Shipman || 05/05/2014 14:12 Comments || Top||

#2  I am naturally a Remington Loyalist, I could do 70 wpm on this bad boy:

Posted by: Shipman || 05/05/2014 14:15 Comments || Top||

#3  Would love to see a video of you doing 70WPM on that Shipman. I think it'll be amazing.
Posted by: CrazyFool || 05/05/2014 14:22 Comments || Top||

#4  The Chicago Union way.
1) Get a good cause project. embezzle the hell out of it.
2) Declare bankruptcy, rotate in fresh people for the next no-bid contract to be ripped off.

But now the Chicago mob has a man in in the White House and many n Congress ripping off and debiting all future generations.

#5  CF in me yoof at the height of me hand eye coordination I could go 95 WPM on this sucker which I still think has the best keyboard ever made.



Frankly (can I say that here?) I still wake up typing on that thing at 3 am, although it has been 30 years. S-300 Bus baby!

#6  I used to could do 70 words and strikeovers per minute - what's that correct to?
Posted by: Glenmore || 05/05/2014 19:03 Comments || Top||

#7  What?! They have unpaid bills!? Send in the swat teams, corral some, kill others and bury them in the desert. Declare them to be terrorists and sic Harry Reid on their children.


Oh, they're donors to the Democrats? Nevermind then.
