  1. You are very clever, I should have qualified that claim with “not in our lifetime”
  2. Before the war Russia’s military was widely considered the second best in the world, six weeks into the “special military operation” it has been revealed to be the second best military in Ukraine.
  3. https://www.thedailybeast.com/joe-biden-and-the-democrats-should-be-absolutely-terrified-by-these-new-poll-numbers Biden reaches new lows. “Democrats are sort of like a man lost at sea who finally decides to quench his thirst by drinking saltwater. And if the Democrats are out to sea, Biden deserves much of the blame.”
  4. Let’s be honest, it is the truth that pisses you off. An incorrect meme gets ripped to shreds in a few hours. Temperature and weather data from NOAA…not so much. Here is some more reality you can chew on. https://www.rechargenews.com/wind/were-all-in-trouble-wind-turbine-makers-selling-at-a-loss-and-in-a-self-destructive-loop-bosses-admit/2-1-1197217 “Raw material and logistics inflation coupled with downward price pressures from auctions have led to an unsustainable situation where wind OEMs are selling at a loss, with the sector unable to deliver Europe's planned tripling of wind capacity by 2030, industry leaders have warned…Right now, different suppliers within the industry are reducing their footprint, they are reducing jobs in Europe,” she explained.”
  5. How about this? https://www.manhattancontrarian.com/blog/2022-4-13-is-there-anyone-taking-this-green-energy-transition-thing-seriously “Although President Biden has supposedly committed the entire federal bureaucracy to the “net zero” by 2050 transition, the EIA projects steady and even increasing fossil fuel usage in the U.S. through the entire 28 intervening years.” As I have said…GND = magical thinking Wasn’t it you who defined troll as someone who promulgates a notion against all evidence to the contrary? BTW, NOAA just confirmed the pause has continued for yet another month despite records of both emissions and atmospheric levels of CO2.
  6. The US was not the only country to print money during the pandemic. Not to mention the dollar is the de facto global currency. When the government puts its thumb on the scales, Wall Street gets nervous. https://www.politico.com/news/2022/01/24/biden-climate-banks-2103097 With regard to memes, I prefer brevity over bloviating. https://joshlinkner.com/2015/brilliance-brevity/
  7. Agreed, Biden was complaining that Putin was responsible for inflation. We all know it was because of the two trillion dollars the Ds dropped on an already hot economy while strangling our domestic energy production. Put demand on crack while crushing supply = inflation Anytime since WW2 every time unemployment was <4% and inflation was >6% the economy went into recession. Let’s go Brandon
  8. What Mother Nature thinks of Biden’s excuses https://nypost.com/2022/04/12/bird-poops-on-biden-as-he-claims-us-is-in-dumps-due-to-putin/
  9. https://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2015/06/16/how-fluid-is-racial-identity/race-and-racial-identity-are-social-constructs
  10. Not once they realize there is a hundred years worth of cheap, clean, reliable natural gas under their feet. The hand of the environmentalist crazies has been weakened now that they have been exposed as Putin’s stooges.
  11. What about race? Race is 100% societal.
  12. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/energy-environment/daily-on-energy-war-brings-new-pressure-to-frack-in-uk-and-germany Funny how the prospect of freezing to death in the shadow of shuttered factories makes one rethink one’s choices
  13. If I was presented with information that was at odds with my world view I would certainly reassess. However with every passing month without additional warming and with the failure of dozens of predictions of doom, my world view is reinforced.
  14. The administration just sent out a press release stating Biden does not speak for the President
  15. I understand there will be no green new deal, I understand increasing levels of CO2 will not result in catastrophe, I understand the notion of peek oil is a myth, I understand renewables will not overtake fossil fuels, I understand that over reliance on renewables makes energy more expensive not less, I understand internal combustion vehicles will remain the dominant form of road transportation. What am I missing?
  16. My thoughts have been well established on this forum for the last 19 years. Any articles I link to are just confirmation of what I have been saying for nearly two decades.
  17. There is the issue of the “Big Guy” getting a cut of the action. Joe might be fine but the BIG Guy might have some explaining to do.
  18. I was referring to the article. Personally, I would be happy with a C+. OTOH your keen scientific mind should be able to rebut all 41 points in short order. Eagerly awaiting your contribution.
  19. Or eight years https://www.ecowatch.com/solar-panel-payback-period-2655204475.html
  20. So you concede you are unable to address the remaining 40. I’ll that that! 97.5% is an A+ in anybody’s book.
