Faustino-

By regressive fanatics, I wonder if you are referring to this, Justin:

Terrorist attacks by Jewish extremists targeting mosques and churches in Occupied Palestine are taking place with an alarming frequency.

Unfortunately, the Israeli government of Binyamin Netanyahu, which is often dubbed a government of settlers, for settlers and by settlers, has done very little to stem the tide of settler terror. On the contrary, government inaction and presumed acquiescence seem to have enabled this phenomenon to linger on and on.

On Thursday, Israeli police said a fire damaged a Greek Orthodox seminary in Jerusalem.

Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said “anti-Christian” slogans were scribbled in Hebrew on the seminary’s walls. Some of the slogans left on the wall of the Church read: Jesus is son of a b….”

I think the lesson learned from Train-wreck-in-Chief Obama is don’t vote for someone just because of their race, gender, or national origin. Vote for someone qualified to run the US. Period.

I can see why Michael doesn’t like Quadrant. Thanks for pointing it out. From the article:

Gone are apolitical scientists who once told the whole story. In their place are activists who distort, omit crucial facts, cherry-pick and torment data contrary to common science ethics. I was initially prepared to write it off as incompetence, but we’ve seen so much of it, time and time again, not to grasp that some darker influence must be at work. The Climategate emails pulled back the curtain on a cabal of scientists who “hide the decline”; select a small subset of, in one infamous instance, tree ring-data that supports their claim while ignoring a broader base of survey findings; conspire to have scientific journals’ editors sacked, and discuss how to stall and stymie perfectly legal Freedom of Information requests. As those emails showed, the climate cabal even expressed joy over the death of a persistent critic.

Three examples from my on life of “progressives” who are totally ignorant of science of any kind, but get belligerent if I try to show them some data.

<blockquote>If you could provide examples. it might help me prevent such lapses inn the future.</blockquote><b>Massive</b> unintentional irony. Almost every time you use the word "skeptic", whether or not you put it in scare quotes.

Right after this, no less:

No mention of dharma nor sustainability there.

***

> He was referring to protecting Planet Earth, which means saving it from CAGW.

It rather means something about the sustainability of ecosystems, This, a challenge that may be a bit more general than the challenge AGW provides.

Denizens’ own CAGW straw man has very little to do with this.

The Chinese expressed their chagrin at the failure of the shakedown in Copenhagen by feigning outrage at the neo-colonial manipulations of one Barack Obama.

The ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrah.
Down in the sewer for me and you
And the ants go marching on.

Willard’s afraid of the big bad wolf, the big bad wolf, the big bad wolf; oh what a big nose he has.

The fragility of ecosystems is their strength, adaptability.

‘Sustain’, in the parlance has taken a tragically frozen connotation.

When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?

“Pause” and “hiatus” carry with them the implication that the phenomenon in question is but temporary.

So in this case, since noone knows the earlier rise temperatures has halted but temporarily, it makes no sense to use those terms.

Instead, use something like “plateau”. Unless of course you are a dishonest alarmist who likes the deviousness of using them.

Given Judith’s previous statements, she might want to dust off General Sherman’s quote “If nominated, I shall not run: if elected, I shall not serve.” :)

SO not on topic.

What’s the deal Willard, you got no friends to talk to about things in the news that bother you? What a surprise. You’re such a little pest.

Oops, an ugly thought. Get it out and begone. Who expects nuanced blame? Also, anger is a survival mechanism, often quite useful when directed against the cause of the threat to survival.

I once hoped that ridicule and derision would end this willful mania for catastrophe, but my friend Peter Bocking told me that too many people have died already. No such easy answer.

Yo momma may have said something along the lines of “If you haven’t anything good to say then say nothing.”

The doctor present at your birth was mysteriously silent. But yo momma knew why and she was silent too.

“This topic is not getting much traction in the twitosphere, either.” – JC

Maybe that’s because it’s just trivial titillation and those who want it to “get traction” are engaging in tribalistic food-fights?
