Mitt rally "it's global warming, not American warming"
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 12:33 PM by JoeIsOneOfUs
so why should we pay for doing anything about it? (think the rally was yesterday, heard just a bit of it just now)

and "I've mastered the lessons of Reaganomics" and other frightening statements :scared:

what happened to Romney the governor of Massachusetts? My impression is he was a bit more reasonable then?

edit- I'm assuming he's running to the right for the primaries, but still...

4. He can say shit like that because
1. He thinks his constituents are extremely stupid, and
b. He knows the librul media will never comment on the absurdity of such a statement.

And guess what. He's probably right on both counts.

8. yep, he got BIG cheers for that one
I was listening to c-span 2 online about the mortgage stuff in the news (of interest to me since I'm househunting) and that popped on in a break in programming. I wasn't watching, just listening, but I could definitely hear the cheers. One of those, ooh, isn't that clever lines that America-firsters just ate up.

5. Every one of them is just as dumb as a post.
When Global Warming melts the ice caps the waters will flood America like every other place on the planet.

Face it, these dumb fuckers aren't going to lift a finger on global warming. If anything gets done about it, it will have to be a totally partisan effort on the Democrats part.

16. people who are too stupid to see the interconnectedness of everything
on the planet deserve what they get. Unfortunately, the rest of us, and the rest of the world, have to suffer too.

What utter fucking morons. Well, imbecile repukes have never been noted for their foresight.
