you've completely lost your mind. The two words "inarguable statistics" uttered in support of your incoherent point, whatever it may have been, is illustrative. You really should shut up because your outmatched here in every conceivable measure.

In fact you're exactly like the guy I was having a reasonable discussion with last Saturday after a wonderful round of golf. He seemed very capable of discussing reality until the moment he went off the deep end and started accusing Al Gore of being the mastermind of the "global warming hoax". I looked him squarely in the eye and said "you're an idiot and a nutbag and this conversation is over." Only difference between you and him is that people here humor you by engaging you. After this comment I will no longer do so because you're so incredibly stupid that if it wasn't for the functioning of the autonomic nervous system you probably couldn't figure out how to breathe.

And repeating you're mantra of "focus boyo" is almost as annoying as calling someone a "lefty nutter".

I say this with the utmost compassion for the human condition: FOAD you ignorant waste of replicated DNA. Were your parents as ignorant as you? If so they must be incredibly proud.

like I said dimbulb--FOAD. And just a simple primer for a peabrain like you--global warming (average rise in global temperature over time) won't yield the same degree and type of climate changes everywhere in the world. But of course you're too stupid to understand that.

And whichever "scientists, meteoroligists . . . " you claim Al Gore is unwilling to debate are likely, if their credentials be sufficiently researched, not in any respect experts in climatology or any other relevant scientific endeavor, and if they are, haven't studied the scientific facts necessary to have an informed scientific opinion. Which presumes they aren't simply paid shills of one of several interested industries cooking their data. But of course you're too stupid to understand that as well. Fair enough boyo. Al Gore is simply one of many "messengers" not the driver of the underlying scientific data.

You just keep on keepin' on with your idiocy though boyo because I'm sure it will take you far.

JB has a guest blogger--Prof. G Edwin Baker from University of Pennsylvania--who has written two very interesting articles on the subject of journalism and problems/solutions for the newspaper industry. Informative read if anyone is interested given it's a subject GG writes about extensively.

Fair piece on the difficulty in reporting the reality of the I/P situation. He frames it as a "battle of narratives" and suggests the prospects for a resolution are dimmed by the fact that partisans on either side find it difficult if not impossible to empathize or perceive [word choice mine not his] the other's grievances and/or subjective reality.

Still think Chomsky does the best job of detailing, citing, and deconstructing the I/P narrative myths.

America goes broke and the rest of the world starts protesting and boycotting us and Israel en mass. The latter is likely the weaker tea but the former is a very real possibility. When our currency becomes valuable only as firestarter then maybe we'll learn a little humility.

President Obama administration is making me sea sick--up and down, up and down, up and down, up and down.

Glenn is every bit the worst of the fever-swamp propagandists . . .

Shocking! It only took the paid shill WinSmith like 4 pages to show up and call Glenn a shrieking deranged Israel-hating harpy.

Insert WinSmith in place of Glenn and I think the sentence is a little more accurate.

The world's post WWII experiment in Jewish theocracy is doomed as it rightly should be. Why don't all the Israeli's mass emigrate to America and become Americans? Far as I can tell you'd be welcomed with open arms (which is what many Jews apparently wanted to do after WWII but weren't given the opportunity thanks to the hard core Zionists and others). But apparently (according to WinSmith and his ilk) that wouldn't work now because America is run amok with anti-Jewish sentiment so that it's only a matter of time before something "bad" happens. So long live the apartheid state of Israel and its ever-expanding "Jewish centric democracy".

Deluded, fearful, paranoid, and aggressively violent (so like America's aristocracy) . . . very weird outcome for a people who pride themselves on adherence to a higher moral standard than the rest of humanity and who have been subjected to so much oppression. Maybe it's just living proof at the state level that the oppressed often become what they most despise--oppressors. The wheel of retribution just keeps on turning. The Gazan's inflict a pinprick and the Israeli's rain down mass destruction, spread their settlements, and call it a proportional. Submit to our will or be prepaired for collective punishment. Almost exactly parallels the frightened craven cowardice that America's leadership pathologically embodies when it comes to the exercise of its military "might" to protect its "interests" and demonstrate its "cultural superiority".

Foolish and shortsighted but color me unsurprised. People who live by the sword will die by the sword.
