    CO2 reduction will take 70 years to have an effect. Geo-engineering only takes two years to work, costs 1/1000th as much, and is actually feasible.

  2. Re:Hate filled libtard on Congressman Steve Scalise Among 5 Shot at Baseball Field (nytimes.com) · · Score: 1

    What's the deal with this? It seems as if there is a Left Leaning Fascist group growing out there...using all methods including violence to shut down and shout down anyone that isn't in perfect lockstep with their groupthink of what the world has to be.

    That group is called the Mainstream Media.

  3. You don't even need that. All you need is a majority of Democrats in the House of Representatives and they can make up whatever charge they want and push it through. OTOH, the Republicans can and will act like whiny obstuctionist crybullies in exactly the same way the next time the tables are reversed.

  4. Because no crime has been committed? Because an impeachment would require dozens of Republicans to sack their own quarterback over no crime being committed, and dozens more Republicans would have to do the same again to remove Trump from office? Because there's no "there" there? Because Russian collusion is a fantasy fabricated from whole cloth by Hillary's campaign to explain her loss? Because even if every last detail of every supposed leak were true, there would still be no crime committed by Trump?

    Stereotypes exist because they are efficient and accurate at the macro scale. Of course computers are going to zero in on these obvious patterns.

  6. Do your fake new batteries use zero-point energy to achieve perpetual motion or do they use cold fusion instead?

    Is you objection that it could solve the Global Warming problem at a cost 1/1000th that of CO2 reduction, but with a chance of actually succeeding and killing hundreds of millions fewer people in the process?

  8. The Earth only has enough gravity to pull it into an ellipsoid, not a sphere. Also, is asteroid Ceres a "plant"? Kids will need to start inserting new names between Earth and Mars.

  9. We could also start teaching that there is no body of water or isthmus that makes Europe a "continent".

    Thunderf00t has the best evisceration of this lunacy. Beyond the severe cost and implausible engineering problems, any tiny breach anywhere in the tube, intentional or accidental, will kill everyone using it with a wall of air that moving at the speed of sound.

    The cops need to start mass-arresting these shitheads for felony rioting. Between the 10-year prison sentences and $250k fines, either they will eventually get the message to stop or they will all be broke and in prison. Either way, it will end.

    So, it's simply inconceivable to you that leftists have devolved into violent lunatics. Thankfully, with new videos of these riots every day and the left shackling itself to Muslim refugees as bastions of tolerance, peace, and female empowerment, more and more former leftists are being red-pilled every day. Maybe some day, the left will figure out why it keeps losing elections. Truth is the new counter-culture.

    the Supreme Court after he has molded it to his liking)

    Perhaps the Democrats should have gotten themselves more seats in the Senate and House during the past six years. Then, Obama could have appointed his pick. It's fitting that the Democrats are starting to look into why keep losing elections and populists keep winning.

  17. Judge should learn the law on Microsoft's H-1B Workers Cited In Motion That Successfully Blocked Trump's Travel Ban (geekwire.com) · · Score: 2, Informative

    Section 1182(f) of the US Code reads: "Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate." In other words, the president has pretty much arbitrary power to decide who is and isn't allowed into the country. This is why it was lawful when President Obama banned all Iraqi refugees for six months in 2011. Also, the judge implies that aliens in foreign countries have Constitutional rights, which is complete lunacy.

  21. When someone calls you a "racist" or "xenophobe", it's a confession that they don't have a rational argument to justify their position. They only have feelings and truthiness.

    The leftist steamroller pissed off those of us in the political center, too. Now, instead of an endless barrage of insults, leftists will need to come up with actual persuasive arguments if they want to take back political power. The thugs in the streets can enjoy their 'felony rioting' charges as the Rule Of Law starts being enforced in the western world again. There's a whole bunch of populist Trump clones waiting in the wings for the European election super-cycle. Leftists can thank their blind mass importation of seventh-century barbarians who absolutely despise every one of the leftists' own values for their downfall.
