Inside every stern Green beats the heart of an inhuman fascist who wants to see it all go to shit and flames while seeking a complete makeover of society, and consequences be damned. Sure, let's watch stark staring stupid as gas goes to what? $10/gal? You might want to rethink that since most people don't volunteer for starvation w/o force.

Or just well wishing bullshit. Buried on page two is a statement that we have to reduce carbon emissions by 80% (of today's levels) by 2050 OR the next FIFTY generations are doomed.

Is that a typo or is Romm prognosticating he knows with certainty what will be in the year 3000?

I have a prediction too. Sometime after the year 2893 a meteor will hit us and wipe out all life on earth unless we take steps now. Right now.

I'm also pretty sure that if you took Eric the Red and brought him forward in time to today he would fail to predict 100% of everything that's around him.

General Officers who were US Presidents

Washington. Ok he's good

Andrew Jackson. So-so

Zachary Taylor. Not so good

Franklin Pierce. One of the worst

US Grant. Ok underrated

Rutherford B Hayes. Stole an election

Garfield. Too short to notice

Benjamin Harrison. The country went broke

Ike. Ok he's ok.

I'm not sure what one thing has to do with the other vis a vis qualifications for President. In fact the US is one of the few significant countries where military service appears to lead to national leadership at all, in the public's mind. France? Israel? That's about it apart from African cannibal kingdoms.

GM won't do any such thing. Everyone knows that. They'd rather go broke and shrink by two thirds than do that. They had that chance already and passed on it. Today their market cap is 1/20th of Toyotas which means they don't have the capital to invest in this even if they wanted to.

But to be fair unless I can plug it in anywhere and that plug can accurately charge me a fair price (because remember, hipsters, it's not FREE) and it doesn't take several hours to re-juice, then there's little point.

Moreover, I can't imagine that Calistan-Ecotopia is going to tolerate hundreds of millions of more batteries that have to be disposed of.

Wow next thing you know Salon will publish an epistle on the death of Santa Marx.

Or make up your minds whether they're evil or good. You can't have it both ways and it's not entirely kosher from a journalistic perspective to constantly go back to the same source over and over and over.

Electing senior general officers to the highest civilian office in the land. I fail to see how any senior military experience is actually a useful or good thing for any President to have or to lean on. Do you think that the President hides in an underground bunker with charts and maps directing battles? And Wesley Clark really needs to stop leaning on his ex-experience as well. I bet none of you are that competent at your jobs if you haven't been at your job in 8 years as is the case with Clark.

The EU doesn't see it that way and instructs consumers to recycle all Lion cells. Why? Caustic hydride leakage and the risk of explosion of the related packaging materials. I have to imagine that a billion plastic wrapped cruddy old Lion batteries are going to present some appreciable disposal problems.

There. Now EVERYONE has a clue. Hippies.

If a bunch of people think the earth is flat and magic pixies cause lightbulbs to turn on? It's doubtful that 90% of all Americans need more than an 8th grade education anyway. Who cares if they think God or chemistry made them better or worse?

Lohan is the biggest slut in California. Winehouse will die (I know, shocking) this year and Spears will be married one more time and pop out another redneck cashier in training.

Fetish heels and mini skirts slit to the waist, to work. Yeah the insurance business aint what it used to be.

I've met quite a few corporate sales reps who slung the sex hard, to their own advantage. I'm sorry, what were you saying? I was busy imagining what you'd be like riding me and screaming my name.

I hope Obama picks a non human co-equal as his running mate.

Win big prizes and the adoration of clapped out Marxists the world over.

The resulting 'non violence' killed millions. Moreover Gandhi suggesting to the Jews of the Holocaust that their best weapons would have been collective 100% suicide too. So when you take eastern philosophy in, you have to do it in the context of eastern thought and not what some idiot bloggers in San Francisco think is the next cool protest trend.

Chocolate, shoes and why all men are pieces of shit? Because that's what porn for women is.

And the end of President Tupac Osama's first term, when he's proven he's unable and unwilling to wrest the shitstorm that George Bush created from the flames, it's you people who have chosen being craven toadies no matter what who will say that up is down black is white and it's all good.

If that's what you think makes a good President, then get one of those guys and screw all this other nonsense. If that was the point that Clark was making then I will just reiterate what I said in 2004; that if you scratch any populist what you find is a fascist dictator.

Napoleon/Obama '08

For peace and understanding.

In the short list of worst fucking things to ever happen to us.

#1 The Civil War

#2 The Great Depression

#3 George motherfucker should have died at birth Bush.

So fuck it, go bare, shut up and sit down, hippies.
