and a couple of his legs

Stan,

How many legs did he have?

I thought snakes didn't have any!!

Laws are getting like that in the UK.  If a burglar cut himself while breaking a window to gain entry he would probably consult a lawyer.  Probably use the police DNA register to prove the case!

seems we saw in the news over here about a fella in england who upon having his life threatened by
a burglar shot the crook and was sent to prison for doing so because he had an illegal gun.

insanity !!!

what i figure has happened to us collectively:

back in the 60's there was this hippy movement most of which were liberally educated by the best and most brilliant
communist/socialist/anarchist minds of the day, and were fully indoctrinated.

they were a stinking,dirty bunch of misfits, social rejects

somewhere along the way, they figured "hey if i take a bath, get a haircut, shave my face i will look mainstream"

so they did, and the moved into society, but they never let go of their twisted belief system

they moved into positions of power, education, the courts and of course politics (al franken is the most current example), media,
hollywood (which has always attracted the leftist) etc.

while the rest of us have been working on raising families, they worked on damaging our children and honing their belief system
to a very fine edge.

now 45-50 years later they run everything, and whats worse they convinced huge numbers of us the populace to vote them into power.

it is said that if you don't appreciate history you are doomed to repeat it, problem is these folks are students of history and know from experience how to manipulate the masses.

obama is not a singular problem but more of a "work" product of the socialist underground that made him and now control him.
he is the figure head, the front man or pitchman so to speak.  The powers that made obama, have made other obama's of every ethnic
background known to man, they simply pulled the one that could be elected out of the lineup. if it had not been him i am convinced
they likely would have had another spit polished and programmed unit to do the job.

Hi Stan,

We were damn lucky to have "W".  He was none of the disgusting crew that mobile_bob described.  His daddy carried him all the way.  No social eletisit edjumacation, no welfare, no stinking liberalism like 40 hour weeks, health insurance, no social security pumping lefies but rather just simple new money acquired through government empowerment. 

But wait, didn’t Obama mostly attend private schools?  Doesn’t Obama take pretty good care of his family?  Wasn’t Obama born after the hippy movement and raised by his homeland Kansas grandparents that would be older than mobile_bob? 

Sarah will return!  We can stop progress at the federal level!  “I have resigned so that Alaska can again progress.”  How did she get through colleges?  And the grace and dignity of Franken’s opponent is beyond words.  (I’m a little concerned about Franken’s IQ as well but know nothing about him except in a monolog situation he can be pretty funny.  Reciting the facts can have that power.)

It was even more ridiculous than that !!!  He had been repeatedly burgled by the same hoodlum family over a period of some years. He was a reclusive type guy and lived on his own. He had never managed to catch them in the act but on this occasion he did. He shot the culprit in self defense. There was massive public support for his actions and outcry when he was convicted. The most outrageous thing was when the criminals family sued him for damages !!!

Since then the law has changed slightly but you are still on precarious ground using force to defend yourself , family or property. How our judicial system arrived at this situation defies any logic.

Howdy Folks
    All i can say is that when there is forest fire out of control people are warned of said fire,some people prepare and pack and get out of its way,some stay and do nothing and then there are the ones who look at the sky and say your full of it because i cant see any flames. Every one views life in there own way and have there own levels of edumacation, some with 20 yrs of university and more degrees than drops of water in a barrell but still dumber than whale snot. Others never made it to grade 12 but dont need to be hit on the head to see what a forest fire can do to them and their families. most people are in between these levels,some smart and some not so smart but still can see the writing on the wall. Some need to be personnally see the changes torealize that we may be in deep shiate  and some will never see the danger no matter how you present the truth to them because they cant or wont grasp the truth.Sooner or later most people will realize that hey!!!!! Ice in the arctic and AntArctic is melting and the water levels are slowly rising and the world temp is going up and the weather patterns are changeing,,,

just wonder how long it will take and will it be too late to do anything for our one and only life supporting planet?????

just my 3 cents worth.

all this same rhetoric was used back in the 70's with global cooling
and it was said anyone that didn't believe in global cooling was basically an idiot
all sort of scientist jumped on the GC bandwagon and i too as a younger fella fell in with
all the hype... the sky was falling!

once bitten twice shy!

this whole GW crap has become a multi billion dollar game soon to become a multi trillion dollar game
and there are those sitting in control skimming off the cream as it passes by them.

as grandma used to say

"maybe so but i kinda F#$@ing doubt it"

(ok it wasn't my grandma)

Remember mactoollover2005,

If the average temperature goes up by say 15 degrees the planet will support life.  Human life?  Maybe not.  Perhaps the planet is just starting to rid itself of a self destructive parasite?  Remember the good news - We'll all be dead before the answer is even remotely near.  Do you suppose it's as dangerous as Y2K!

"The Canfield ocean, a sulfidic partially oxic ocean existing between the Archean and Ediacaran periods"
I doubt that was man made. Also, that brings about a point, of evolution. As the Earth evolves, things by definition do not remain the same. Global Warming hysteria makes us afraid and feeling guilty about things that are beyond our control.
I seem to recall an ex-wife that used similar tactics. In fact, having been married to her sorry a** taught me a lot and led to several promotions at work. Knowing how to deal with a phsycopathic liar with an anger management problem can be a real career benefit.
Makes some of our more self serving politicians a bit transparent.  ::)

amen to that Scott:

my ex had me so convinced that everything was my fault, so much so that if i were still married to her
i would feel as though i was soley responsible for GW!

pycho/anger managment/addictive personality, borderline personality, OCD, you name it she had it

and i believed it was all me for 20 plus years

funny thing, i have been remarried now for 5 years, and to date i have yet to have my first fight with this woman!
(knock on wood)

so yes, i am a bit tired of being the blame for all that is wrong in this world just because some lunatic/politician tells me i am.

lol

all i can say is Tipper Gore must be one hell of a woman to put up with Al's pompous ass.

anyway, i can certainly relate, and i think you have it narrowed right down
after 20 odd years with a nutcase, you get to where you just know when you are being shoveled bullcrap.

if it looks like bullcrap, smells like bullcrap,,, i don't have to taste it to just accept that it is truely bullcrap.

btw GW=bullcrap
just in case anyone wondered what side i stand on!

Nope, no one is saying we are going to cause a canfield ocean, nor did we cause one 100 million years ago  ;)  however there is a link between 1000ppm C02 and canfield oceans.  I figure severe prolonged (thousands of years) of intense volcanic eruptions (see Siberian Traps and Deccan Traps) produced those levels, however we are producing much higher (3ppm/year) levels than the end-Permian or end-Cretaceious extinction eras.

I've ordered Ward's book "Under a Green Sky".  It should be good reading.

The real problem with "global warming" - or "man-made climate change" as it is now, to reflect the fact that sometimes the earth cools  ::) - is that it is promoted as a religion. "Unbelievers" are considered heretics. They're even talking about making "climate change denial" illegal, like holocaust denial already is in much of Europe (& the US I believe).

The trouble is, unlike the holocaust, there's no direct evidence of man-made climate change... instead, we have to rely on esoteric "indicators" like tree-ring widths (as we know, trees grow in direct proportion to temperature ??? nothing to do with rainfall, then ::)), ice-cores (great for long-term precasts, but no use for recent data, i.e. industrial revolution onwards), etc.

Oh, and don't quote the surface station temps either; the number of actual surface stations have been dropping precipitously since the late C20th, and somehow this is supposed to give more accurate temperatures? There's also many anomolies in the dataset which tend to reduce confidence in the results.

Of course, there IS something happening.... the increasing Arctic Circle ice melts, the forest infestations which Stan has pointed out in the past, and so on. The question is: Is this caused by mankind's CO2 emissions, or something else? I have to say, the odds are seriously stacked on "something else", but we're all paying the CO2 price - and the price will do nothing but rise.

After all, as any fule knos, more taxes are always the solution to the problem.  ::)

Don't bombing raids and innocent country overthrows cause high amounts of CO2?  Perhaps this would have kept us out of the criminal tragedy of Iraq.

Huh?  I thought his childhood was spent in Indonesia and Hawaii?  How do you know sooo much about the curriculum of Ivy League level institutions?
