Question is what sort of concern will he show when the red counties decide to secede from the blue?

If America and its' constitution/bill of rights etc. is in fact in the process of being suborinated to a new Global Socialist World Order with a global currency and global laws & courts and global taxation; it would appear there is nowhere to emegrate to to escape this insanity.

Any creative ideas here?

I've been thinking of similar consequences even before the election because it was becoming clear to me that once 50% receive some form of government benefit at the expense of the rest, democracy will go out the window in favor of whomever doles out the most.

When our own elected whores dole out Citizenships based on how they expect them to vote, what exactly IS the point any longer of Citizenship?

Maybe Argentina is as good a place as any. Thank g-d I speak Spanish :-) I wouldn't DREAM of going there and expecting them to adapt to my ways and speak english wherever I go. I am NOT a LIEberal and I hope they don't have any LIEberals somewhere on Earth where logic and common sense still prevail.

Checkers, I know that once we move to certain states, like Florida for example, to get away from LIEberals, it's only a matter of time till they follow us, leftist writers and editors taking over the local media, running for office and getting elected based on promising handouts and punishing success, ie. playing on envy.

Oh, and they use race, of course. And high levels of activism too. While WE are at work and even at play, they plot and plan.. they scheme.. they work harder than we do on taking from us rather than create.

There are plenty of other examples of LIEberals following US because they've created inhospitable conditions wherever they've held the majority for too long. Not even LIEberals want to put their kids in schools where they've created the currently prevailing conditions.

Op-Ed Columnist
Betraying the Planet
By PAUL KRUGMAN

So the House passed the Waxman-Markey climate-change bill. In political terms, it was a remarkable achievement.

But 212 representatives voted no. A handful of these no votes came from representatives who considered the bill too weak, but most rejected the bill because they rejected the whole notion that we have to do something about greenhouse gases.

And as I watched the deniers make their arguments, I couldn’t help thinking that I was watching a form of treason — treason against the planet.

To fully appreciate the irresponsibility and immorality of climate-change denial, you need to know about the grim turn taken by the latest climate research.

The fact is that the planet is changing faster than even pessimists expected: ice caps are shrinking, arid zones spreading, at a terrifying rate. And according to a number of recent studies, catastrophe — a rise in temperature so large as to be almost unthinkable — can no longer be considered a mere possibility. It is, instead, the most likely outcome if we continue along our present course.

Thus researchers at M.I.T., who were previously predicting a temperature rise of a little more than 4 degrees by the end of this century, are now predicting a rise of more than 9 degrees. Why? Global greenhouse gas emissions are rising faster than expected; some mitigating factors, like absorption of carbon dioxide by the oceans, are turning out to be weaker than hoped; and there’s growing evidence that climate change is self-reinforcing — that, for example, rising temperatures will cause some arctic tundra to defrost, releasing even more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Temperature increases on the scale predicted by the M.I.T. researchers and others would create huge disruptions in our lives and our economy. As a recent authoritative U.S. government report points out, by the end of this century New Hampshire may well have the climate of North Carolina today, Illinois may have the climate of East Texas, and across the country extreme, deadly heat waves — the kind that traditionally occur only once in a generation — may become annual or biannual events.

In other words, we’re facing a clear and present danger to our way of life, perhaps even to civilization itself. How can anyone justify failing to act?

Well, sometimes even the most authoritative analyses get things wrong. And if dissenting opinion-makers and politicians based their dissent on hard work and hard thinking — if they had carefully studied the issue, consulted with experts and concluded that the overwhelming scientific consensus was misguided — they could at least claim to be acting responsibly.

But if you watched the debate on Friday, you didn’t see people who’ve thought hard about a crucial issue, and are trying to do the right thing. What you saw, instead, were people who show no sign of being interested in the truth. They don’t like the political and policy implications of climate change, so they’ve decided not to believe in it — and they’ll grab any argument, no matter how disreputable, that feeds their denial.

Indeed, if there was a defining moment in Friday’s debate, it was the declaration by Representative Paul Broun of Georgia that climate change is nothing but a “hoax” that has been “perpetrated out of the scientific community.” I’d call this a crazy conspiracy theory, but doing so would actually be unfair to crazy conspiracy theorists. After all, to believe that global warming is a hoax you have to believe in a vast cabal consisting of thousands of scientists — a cabal so powerful that it has managed to create false records on everything from global temperatures to Arctic sea ice.

Yet Mr. Broun’s declaration was met with applause.

Given this contempt for hard science, I’m almost reluctant to mention the deniers’ dishonesty on matters economic. But in addition to rejecting climate science, the opponents of the climate bill made a point of misrepresenting the results of studies of the bill’s economic impact, which all suggest that the cost will be relatively low.

Still, is it fair to call climate denial a form of treason? Isn’t it politics as usual?

Yes, it is — and that’s why it’s unforgivable.

Do you remember the days when Bush administration officials claimed that terrorism posed an “existential threat” to America, a threat in whose face normal rules no longer applied? That was hyperbole — but the existential threat from climate change is all too real.

Yet the deniers are choosing, willfully, to ignore that threat, placing future generations of Americans in grave danger, simply because it’s in their political interest to pretend that there’s nothing to worry about. If that’s not betrayal, I don’t know what is.

All I can say is I wish Bernie had made off with the Steinbrenners' money instead of the Wilpons'. They're cheapskates as it is and that was their excuse not to sign Manny.

There's no reason they couldn't have started a bidding war for Teixera either.

I'm just glad to know that in the end the Sawx will take it all :-)

Hear, hear!

With the nation increasingly politically divided, secession makes more sense now than it ever did (except perhaps for 1861, when the South had good reasons for seceding and Lincoln's taking the nation into a brutal war, still sometimes called the War of Northern Aggression in those parts, had no constitutional justification whatever).

NIALL, of course they can't possibly let us secede.. all the Private Sector will be gone and all they'll have left is.. well.. the LEFT.

Plus give or take a few terrorists.

And parasites require a host. That is true, but it's the parasites' worry -- not the host's.


Ummah Gummah

True that, but what do you think those urban shock troops he wants to assemble are supposed to be for?

Peaceful purposes - I doubt that very much.

They can't possibly survive without the host, exactly like moslems. Which is why libs love them so much. Both are completely unproductive.

Look at what they turned the Land of Milk and Honey into! The Euphrates Valley should produce way more food than the Mid-west. You could rotate crops there and harvest three times a year in the absence of winter.

Yet all there is are wastelands. islam.. wherever it goes the lands turn barren.

And we refuse to LEARN from the past.

I’m sitting here listening to Michael Jackson YouTubes because I JUST CAN’T STAND listening to the Republicans anymore. As I sit here, wondering if I’m becoming a Democrat, I’m reading this:


RUSH: We haven't talked about this Michael Jackson episode, but there's one thing I want to say about it. The media in this Michael Jackson episode is a horrible disgrace. It is so bad that the only guy making sense on any of this is Al Sharpton!

That's how bad the media coverage is. All of these lies about the autopsy report, all of this misinformation about the doctor shooting him up with Demerol, the guy's lawyer said he didn't do it and so forth. For once I understand -- I don't believe I'm saying this -- but for once I understand the Justice Brothers getting in gear here to try to prevent some of the smirching of Michael Jackson's character that's gone on here. We don't know anything yet. We don't know diddly-squat yet. So let it be on record El Rushbo supports the Justice Brothers. Just mind-boggling.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Ken in Livonia, Michigan. Hi, welcome to the EIB Network, sir.

CALLER: Yeah, Rush, I just wanted to comment that once again the news media has given us the proof that we needed, as if we needed any more, that not only do they lean to the extreme left, but they're... You know, they're... You know, they're just extremely liberal. Untrustworthy. Now, here we have President Obama continuing to reach into the wallets and the purses of the American people through cap and trade, you know, his Obamacare health plan.

RUSH: Right. And what are they doing instead, what are they reporting instead?

CALLER: Well, instead of that they're doing all these big stories on Michael Jackson -- who, by the way, I am still convinced is a child molester. Then you've got Farrah Fawcett, Billy Mays.

RUSH: Wait a second now. You're no different than the media! He was acquitted. I'm going to tell you something about Michael Jackson. We haven't talked about this. But he was acquitted of that charge. That kid and the kids' mother were the worst witnesses. That was an abomination of a case brought against him. That was a vendetta case. I'm not saying he didn't have some strange peccadilloes with kids but that case didn't prove it. So if you're out there saying, "I'm still convinced he's a child molester," you're no different than the media lying about what was in the autopsy report, lying about all the drugs he was supposedly taking, lying about this and that. We don't know diddly-squat yet. The autopsy details have not been released. All we have is a bunch of media speculation. This guy's talent was incomparable! We build 'em up and we tear 'em down in this culture, and it's wrong. I'll tell you, it's the first time in my life... The media in this situation has been so bad they're making Al Sharpton look credible. They're making the Justice Brothers look like they have a reasonable reason to intervene here. That's how bad it's gotten.

Rush on the “chickification of Gov. Sanford.” I disagree. Most women seem to be siding with Jenny. Gov. Sanford is NO John Edwards. John Edwards crime was not the affair, but planning the wedding before his wife’s body was cold. Clinton didn’t really bother me the way it bothered you guys. Actually, I found the whole affair (pardon the pun) pretty amusing.


“There are a number of stories from State-Run Media written by women about Governor Mark Sanford in South Carolina. TIME Magazine's had one of these, the Associated Press, I believe. Yeah, it's Jocelyn Noveck at OP -- I mean AP. Obama Press is in my mind. (laughing) Associated Press. The latest from the chicks in the State-Run Media is, hey, wait a minute, you know, this guy loved her. This is not like Clinton. This is not like the Breck Girl. Oh, speaking of which, there's apparently a sex video of the Breck Girl on YouTube. I haven't looked at it because I'm not a voyeur and the last thing I want to do is watch the Breck Girl have sex because I don't know how you comb your hair and have sex at the same time, but apparently there's a sex video out there. So you've got the Breck Girl, you've got Clinton, Eliot Spitzer, and they're all, "Yeah, I didn't love 'em. No way did I love them." Well, the Breck Girl might have loved his. He was talking about marrying her if Elizabeth passed away, but all of a sudden now as far as the chicks are concerned -- you know what? Go ahead and get divorced and marry the woman. Bonnie Fuller wrote this. Go ahead, I mean love is love. Wherever you find it take advantage of it. You only live once. And, by the way, when you do remember this is being denied gay couples. That was the story. “

So, I was listening to Byron York discuss the overexposure of Michael Jackson with Laura Ingraham and he asked Laura if she remembered the story that Walter Cronkite picked to lead the CBS evening news with the day Elvis died?

I’m not interested in these other stories because what am I going to do about them anyway. As for “Cap and Trade”, my politicians voted for it as predicted. I’m tired of calling and calling the elected whores as they squander my tax money. I want my MTV.

People are fascinated with the Michael Jackson story because it isn’t about him; it is about us. Who we are as a culture. It is one of those shared cultural moments that seem to becoming rarer and rarer.

You guys can continue to discuss Iran, Cap and Trade, and Obama just as we having been doing for the past several years as the Republicans continue to lose every election and Obama keeps getting his bills passed. I’m going back to my “shared cultural moment”.

As and as the Jacksons, this group stuck around for quite awhile and had hit after hit. Their music NEVER gets old . Dedicated to Maria.

The Democrats may have the Playboy channel, but we the Republicans have “General Hospital”.

“In 1981, Luke and Laura's wedding as a television phenomenon. Newspapers and national magazines covered the event as if it were the marriage of royalty. Perhaps, in a way, it was a royal wedding - daytime royalty. The Spencers wedding was and still is the most watched event in soap opera history. People stayed home from work, college kids skipped classes... all to see Luke and Laura say, "I do."
