Mean sea level has increased by 4-8 inches in the past century and the rate of rise over the past 20 years is more than double the rate of the preceding 80 years.

Even Exxon acknowledges the role their product plays in the change. But all these pilots on APC know better than that! You wrote on this forum that there is overwhelmingly evidence to refute this science fiction nonsense, Canoepilot. Well let's have it. Prove us wrong.

Cow farts.
We've just GOT to do something about them. Did you know...?? Cow farts are even more dangerous than the fluoridation of our natural bodily fluids! Thank god for the realists in the coastal cities of CA. California Battles Cow Farts To Fight Global Warming http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/...s_3147217c.jpg |
Returning to the thread topic.......
Did anyone notice that Trump just saved 1,400 blue-collar union jobs at Carrier, and he hasn't even been sworn in yet?? . |

And now for our $100.00 bonus question:
Is it hotter in the summer or colder in the winter? ;) |
NAI is the epitome of globalism. Trump won on the nationalist , populist platform and for protecting American jobs and workers. If the administration allows flag of convenience model, It will be in blatant disregard of his electorate and we will know the entire presidency and promise of MAGA is a farce.

US airlines have welcomed President-elect Donald Trump’s nomination of Elaine Chao as the next transportation secretary.
Chao, if confirmed by the Senate, will succeed Anthony Foxx in the position. Nicholas Calio, the chief executive of Airlines for America (A4A), calls Chao an “outstanding” choice. Sooooo, if that doesn't make labor like us raise an eyebrow, I don't know what will. I would rather make more money than deny climate change, but that's just me. In the meantime the top 1% continue to laugh all the way to the bank. |

Which is a point already made in this discussion as relates to NAI. Follow the logic... 1. Trump may be any number of things, but he is not an idiot. Just the opposite, in fact. 2. Every single person who has ever discounted Trump has lost. Personally, I'm convinced his "act" is just that, designed to cause people to consistently under-estimate him. For example, he is an absolute master at trolling emotional liberal snowflakes. 3. Hold the above 2 thoughts for a moment. 4. Obama made many campaign promises, chief among them "national unity" and "transparency in gov't", which he did not keep. Voters have utterly wrecked and ruined his party, in large part because of these failures. His willingness to sacrifice American workers for his ideology simply sealed the deal. 5. Trump's #1 campaign promise is "fair deal for the American worker(s)", ie. the middle class 6. See point #1 7. Trump knows he needs his core supporters, and what will happen to him even faster than it did to Obama if he fails to keep his main campaign promises 8. The incoming SoT, Elaine Chao, works for Trump, not the other way around. 9. See: Carrier plant jobs saved from going to Me-hi-coe In other words, in order to believe...at this moment...that Chao will be bad for US airline labor re: NAI issues (ie. flag -of-convenience), one has to disregard the clear and undeniable logic above. Which is to say, that Trump is stupid enough to repeat the Obama administration's mistakes re: campaign promises, that he will allow Chao to undermine his core political support, and that he utterly fails to see the political risks here. That said, given that his detractors completely mocked his ability to attain the WH and never took him seriously to begin with, it is completely foolish to think they know what they are talking about now. Credibility = 0 |

Liberals already are claiming just that. Who cares. The only realists among the democrats today are the ones admitting they aren't even a national party at this point. Which they aren't. A month after an election that took them completely by surprise, they are still mired in denial. And will be for some time to come, just as the GOP was following 2008. (See: Pelosi's re-election as House Minority leader, in spite of the damage to her party that she is responsible for.) |
