Where is all the coverage?

Yep bring democracy to Iraq was why we invaded them.

Ohh wait we heard that about a year after the invasion....
Actually, we invaded because Saddam broke the conditions of the treaty after we kicked his ass the first time, he had retained his ability to manufacture and deliver WMDs, and he was providing support to our enemies in the Afghan war. Democratization is part of the long term process to bring peace to the region.

It must suck for liberals when Republican presidents bring freedom to so many people. :)
 
You know Asshat, I have to come to realize that you will only ever believe in what is not accepted as the norm. It's good to be objective, especially for issues that there is a credible scientific alternative like climate change driven by sun activity..

LOL.

Global warming is caused by the sun and doesn't exist. They're both completely credible scientific opinions that many climatologists hold. They're is much debate that exists on this topic and it's completely open to doubt, global warming is, because it's caused by the sun and doesn't exist.

You actually believe that rhetoric don't you?
 
And yet we heard nothing of this from our own government/press.

We had to hear it from the British press. How do you explain that?

Is it because the British and European press generally tend to be less insular and aren't caught up in the day-to-day drama of a lovely new President who is also focussed primarily on domestic matters?

(and it's part of a left wing conspiracy, but that goes without saying, even though i've just said it when there really wasn't any need but there there you go. It's done now and there's no changing it. Well, i suppose i could edit it but then you have to ask "is it worth it?". i don't think i'll bother after all and just leave it as it is. Are you still reading this? Go on bugger off.)

Please read again Water, I said climate change, not global warming, because in this case sun activity varies the climate with temperatures going up or down, unlike conventional global warming manmade CO2 believers who think that it is only going up and calling it climate change.
And thus yes, right now based on the obvious fact of very cold worldwide temperatures, there is no global warming problem is there?

Just for this once, let's not play the alpha male bullshit and just read this through on the theory behind sun activity in relation to climate change:

"Dr Timothy Patterson, director of the Geosciences Centre at Carleton University, has found "excellent correlations" between solar fluctuations and global temperature, whereas he says there are no such correlations with the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere. Patterson says there is no surprise in this, since "the sun is the ultimate source of energy on this planet".

Sunspot climate research dates back to 1991, when the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) released a study showing that world temperatures over the last several centuries correlated very closely with solar cycles.

Further research, led by the DMI's Dr Henrik Svensmark, has revealed what appears to be happening. The temperature of the planet is related to how much cloud cover there is. Fewer clouds mean a warmer planet, since sunlight strikes the earth and warms it up. More clouds mean that the tops of the clouds reflect the sun's heat back into outer space.

The amount of cloud cover is related to the quantity of cosmic rays coming into the atmosphere. Cosmic rays are energetic nuclear particles that originate in the stars and constantly hurtle through space. While you read this article, a few cosmic rays will pass through your body.

As the cosmic rays race through the atmosphere, they strike atoms and molecules in the atmosphere, and this gives rise to nucleation points, which induce clouds to form, from the water vapour in the air.

This is the same mechanism that drives the formation of the long trails of cloud that appear behind the engines of high-flying jet aircraft. The specs of soot and ions in the jet exhaust provide the nucleation sites for droplets of water to form, which are then seen as the familiar ‘contrails'.

But the earth has protection. This protection is provided by the magnetic field around the planet. This field extends out a great distance, and its effects are seen half way to the moon.

The earth's magnetic field acts as a shield, preventing many cosmic rays from getting through to our atmosphere. Then there is another phenomenon, which is known as the Solar Wind. The sun blasts out a huge stream of nuclear particles, including charged particles, which race away from the sun and impact the earth.

The charged particles interact with the earth's magnetic field, giving rise to, besides other effects, the awe-inspiring northern and southern lights, which look like gossamer curtains of coloured lights in the polar skies.

As the magnetic storms on the sun's surface vary in number, which we see as the sunspot count, so the intensity of the Solar Wind alters. As the wind alters, so it alters the magnetic protection around the earth.

When there are many sunspots, a stronger magnetic field develops around the earth, and this shields the planet from the cloud-forming cosmic rays. The result is less cloud cover and so a warmer planet. A quiet sun, like we have now, results in more clouds covering the earth, and so a cooling climate results."

Anyone catch the recent report that CO2 is poisoning the oceans & will likely soon disrupt the oceanic food chain & possibly have a lasting effect on the world's protein supply?

Wind, solar, hydro, geothermal = the future.

I'd be interested in seeing that. A warmer climate means the ocean belches more CO2 into the air (warming causing CO2 increase) so that doesn't seem to make sense.

Wind, solar, hydro, geothermal = the future.
Nothing wrong with hydro or geothermal IF you have those sources, they can produce energy at a decent price. Wind and solar are very expensive, that's why the left needs to force people to pay taxes to help subsidize them.
 
Here is a link on the effect of C02 on the oceans:

"Nothing wrong with hydro or geothermal IF you have those sources, they can produce energy at a decent price. Wind and solar are very expensive, that's why the left needs to force people to pay taxes to help subsidize them. "

You've always been kind of shortsighted on this..."pennywise, pound foolish." The per capita tax burden related to investment in alternatives is ridiculously low right now, and will pay itself back exponentially in the coming decades in terms of American jobs created & boost to the economy in general.

Again - right now, we are spending $700 billion overseas on energy. A bigger push on alt energy right now will bring more of that money home sooner. Beyond that, prices for things like wind & solar will go down dramatically as technology in these fields expands.
