I love Gail Collins, of the NYT's:

..You may remember from previous crises that the House Republicans oppose raising income taxes on the wealthy because it would impact struggling small businesses such as a hedge fund manager with an eight-figure annual income....

On election night, people were talking about the not-young male population as if they were a dwindling tribe of graybeards sitting around a sputtering stove in Oklahoma. The Republican strategist John Weaver worried about becoming "a shrinking regional party of middle-aged and older white men." On Fox News, Bill O'Reilly moaned that "the white establishment is now the minority."

O'Reilly, 63, added that the new majority was composed of people who "want stuff." As opposed to older white men, all of whom have signed a pledge never to accept veteran benefits, Social Security or Medicare.

Cheer up, white men! You seem to be doing O.K. Next year women will have 20 percent of the seats in the U.S. Senate, and we’re celebrating.

With all the screaming about moral values and hurrican Sandy could God be trying to tell the Rebublican Party something they don't want to hear? Mainly that you must learn to love your neighbor as yourself!

Obama has sold you all such a bag of goods and he's laughing all the way to the Oval office. You're all so easy, you buy everything. hook, line and sinker. He's made you think all Rep. are evil...bought and paid for. He's made you think you need him...bought and paid for. He's led you to believe we have to apologize as a country...bought and paid for. He's led you to believe your children will be better off living in a country where if they choose to sacrifice and work hard they'll have opportunity like you've had...but they won't anymore...bought and paid for. You still haven't figured out he doesn't want anything this country has had that's made it the destination of the world's FOLK who want something better for their children. You've voted for no hope. Good luck with that.

Before man Amy, and cars and polution, what killed off the dinosars?

Mother Earth had a cycle of heat prior to the arrival of man and machines. Maybe we are in another cycle of warming? Wasn't it in the 70's that Mlother Earth was into a long term second ice age?

Sorry, but there isn't sufficient science to prove/disprove climate change. Was has been developed has been contaminated by those deriving money for their research.

Now that the election is in for the liberals, are we reverting back to global warming to define the reason NOT to produce our own energy?

Keep up the climate-change denial, funnygirl, it helped the Republican Party lose the support of the scientific community, not to mention the younger generation, and anyone with access to the Internet who can visit the NASA websiite:

On Earth, human activities are changing the natural greenhouse. Over the last century the burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil has increased the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂). This happens because the coal or oil burning process combines carbon with oxygen in the air to make CO₂. To a lesser extent, the clearing of land for agriculture, industry, and other human activities have increased concentrations of greenhouse gases
