  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Well, if Trump wants a panel populated by true scientists who haven't drunk the global warming Kool-Aid and who want to bring true scientific data to the forefront, starting fresh with just such a panel would be the right move. Out with the old, in with the new.
A breath of fresh air just might do climate studies some good.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

"So long, and thanks for all the fish."

So apropos.

One of the most mistranslated phrases almost rivaling the misinterpretation of global warming data.

Good luck there. They went extinct a long time ago.

    Since all the 'important people' here (to me anyway) that really don't like Trump have given him Kudo's for such a bold move and have been slapped around and ignored by the Trumpers, I'm gonna go on record as saying Ivanka ordered this so she can create HER own panel with Al Gore as Chairman. 
    All this Global Warming posturing by President Trump means squat, so far, money talks, BS walks and all I've seen is talk and BS, so far. 
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

My, but that is what I had said, about the bucket out of the swamp..

Nothing is ever good enough for YOU FOLKS.

You shitbirds are so ready to pull the trigger on people who say something good about Trump, you only ensure it is all the more difficult to be fair to the man. Piss off.

Oh that's right you're a cry baby.    Grow up

This is more than likely good news unless the advisory panel was populated by true scientists who haven't drunk the global warming Kool-Aid and who want to bring true scientific data to the forefront. It would seem that the Trump administration -- an administration not known for harboring sacred cows -- would be the perfect (and perhaps only) place to bring forth a viewpoint different from the one which we are told we may not argue against.

Personally, I'd like to very publically blow a big hole in the notion that man-made climate change is settled science. And, Lord forgive me, but I want to see Al Gore and his ilk publically shamed.

Heh, thank you for the subscript to your Avatar... for a moment I was in some heavy cognitive dissonance.
Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning, they want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters.

Joe has a point.  There are a lot of people around here who's attitude is "I don't trust him, nor like him much, but when I see him do a good thing I'll praise him."  This is one of those times, and do you welcome him with open arms?  No!  You call him a crybaby.

Given the pattern of behavior, no one should be surprised.

I've long said the Trump folks are doing more to drive people away than the man himself.

Truth. It is hard to support someone's actions when his supporters have a fit even when you agree.

Yeah, if you could genuflect a bit more that'd be great.

Go ahead and support Trump's actions if you think they are good. His supporters can be unsupportive all they want.

I'm trying to remember if you've ever said anything positive....   I think I would have remembered that.
