On Friday, January 16, the U.S. Climate Change Science Program released four reports:

Final Report of Synthesis and Assessment Product 4.1 Coastal Sensitivity to Sea-Level Rise: A Focus on the Mid-Atlantic Region.

Final Report of Synthesis and Assessment Product 4.2 Thresholds of Climate Change in Ecosystems.

Final Report of Synthesis and Assessment Product 2.3 Aerosol properties and their impacts on climate.

Final Report of Synthesis and Assessment Product 1.2 Past Climate Variability and Change in the Arctic and at High Latitudes.

These studies were released in the last days of the Bush Administration. They should be read by Governor Edwards and others who do not believe that global warming/climate change is real and caused by man.

I wonder if Philip Branton knows that a Wind Farm does not generate that much energy. Dopes he also know that to create the windmills, there will have to be some pollution?

More people in this country have been injured from Wind Mills than have ever been injured from Nuclear Power Plants–and that’s a fact!

These green fascists simply want to control everything you do. It’s not about cleaning up the environment, its about control for them.

APK, I like you. Hell you can come over to my house on Sunday and eat chicken. Clean coal tech is not new and it’s here and it’s available. Build the friggin plant.
I used to be a Sanford supporter but he has lost all credibility with me. Stay in Cola Sanfraud, us Beaufort boys don’t need you.
And you hippies aren’t qualified to hold Robert Byrds sack.

I don’t understand these damn college kids who claim to be envrionmental activists. They oppose oil, coal, trucks (we won’t even go into what any male opposed to trucks is) farting, cows, and whatever the fad of the week happens to be.

What are these kids learning? Seriously, I know they like to see pretty trees at their ultimate frisbee tournaments, but they are out of touch with reality.

Guys, oil is used to make tons of products, including plastic, yes the same plastic for your cute little frisbees for your pretend sport.

If this is what these kids are learning, we should really consider cutting all funding to public universities, because they aren’t getting the job done. According to the chief enviro from liberal land, 500 million Americans are losing their jobs every week. Why don’t these dirty little college kids tell the poor Americans who recently lost their job at a plant, on a rig, in a refinery or in a mine, that they were hurting the environment and they should find another job.

I think that would make for a nice little hippy ass kicking.

BIN – the Flux Capacitor – why didn’t I think of that?!?

Bert, I’ll tell you why our state (or any other state) doesn’t have more principled politicians like Jim Edwards. Nobody but an egotistical idiot would subject themself & their family to the ordeal of running for public office. For example, try to imagine what personal life must’ve been like for McCain since 2004. Not that I’m expecting a Draft Stinkbait movement, but I wouldn’t do it at gunpoint.

DR. Brown – bravo – yet another pithy post from BIN – that’s two in 6 months – keep it up!

Coal is problematic – for God’s sake – look at all that carbon dioxide it emits – when will the tree-huggers realize carbon dioxide is what trees NEED???? Guess they don’t teach that section of plant-ology any more.

Here’s a real solution: geo-thermal and solar. Last I checked, the sun shines 365 days a year and will for the next kajillion years.

Now, until that pipe dream is realized – build some coal and nucular plants and shut your pie-holes.

Today illustrates what we already knew: former Gov. Edwards is a stand-up guy, and current Gov. Sanford is a chump.

Why can’t our state have more principled politicians like Edwards?

Well, if you step outside of your holes tonight, you will see, feel, and hear wind. This is a no-brainer. Paint them to look like trees, so at non-windy times, they aren’t an eyesore. Commission artists to paint them with different cutesy themes.

Wind farms are it!

The greenies, the artsy types, the bimbos, the emos, the physicists, all God’s chillens can be happy.
