Comment to Huff Po/ Joe Romm: The Warm War Huffington Post

90% chance they won't publish the comment.  The Warm War  Huffington Post  "awaiting moderator approval"  comment - You know, Romm is correct that Obama is central here if it was FDR that won WWII, Johnson that won Civil Rights, Lincoln and not the blood of 10's of thousands that freed the slaves, some young leader in Egypt that won the Arab Spring....  But it wasn't FDR, it wasn't Johnson, it wasn't Lincoln, some Egyptian leader.... 

I guess to avoid personal responsibility for himself and his fawning leftie following, Joe, a stunning science blogger by the way, indispensable, is Religious about point the finger of blame at everyone and everyone, especially his whipping boy Obama, everyone, except who MLK Jr, or Gandhi, or Mandela, or the Egyptian revolutionaries pointed their finger of blame at - #1. At themselves, #2. At we-the-citizens.  'Give me someone of courage to fight alongside, any day.  Don't give me any lip-service liberals,' to paraphrase Gandhi.  'My problem is not the violent racists.  My problem is the 'good people' who will not stand and stay standing till they've won.' MLK Jr paraphrase. 

Time's almost up folks on the left, Joe.  Is your ultimate allegiance to your own outrage, tantrums, self-righteousness, comfort, position, following..., or to your kids and grandkids?  I think it is the latter, deep inside you.  I think there is goodness in you, courage.  But I'm guessing. Time to put up, or....

Loving's comment on Forbes: Dear Global Warming Alarmists: We're Still Waiting for Declining Snowfall

Dear Global Warming Alarmists: We're Still Waiting for Declining Snowfall

--------------
Friend, what a curious title to this article.  Did you think that I, or we 'alarmists,' as you call us, are responsible for what you do?  I'm not. 

I'm not responsible if you remove this comment, for example.  I am responsible for submitting it, though.

I'm not responsible for the folks (like you?) now prolonging public acceptance of the climate science, settled among the 'climate scientists' for years now, that for 30 years prolonged the torture and killing of innocents by sowing doubt about the science that was 'settled' within the scientific community, well documented here, Merchants of Doubt, on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Merchants-Doubt-Handful-Scientists-Obscured/dp/1596916109 , and in this 5 minute documentary http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVq0gBsmplM . 

I'd not have been responsible for the actions of the Tories saying we should go along with our British masters, nor for the apologists for Slavery, and Discrimination in this country, nor for what McCarthy and his hate mongers did....

I'm fully accountable for what I do which is to with eyes wide open respect my eyes, which see the (to anyone with a shred of decency) the terrifying time-lapse stampede of increased temperature this last 20 years in particular per the read-out of 2000 probes around earth this last 130 years here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2qLP24Evis , or from Goddard's site, if you prefer - http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/animations/ ; I'm responsible for my  stand with not the 2%, but the 98% of Qualified scientists on the matter, the 'Climate' scientists, and with the 100% of qualified scientific organizations around the globe. 

If you choose to fight them, to delay policies to avert the horror they foresee, how could you possibly think that is my, or the 'alarmists' responsibility?  No, it is yours.

And finally, if you, unlike me, or we 'alarmists,' refuse to place your faith in the market, the capitalist market, and believe that it should be wrecked by the only market failure greater than Enron (google Nicholas Stern, World Bank, for one), if you wish to continue to send 80% of today's bill for fossil fuel energy to your children, nieces, nephews, grandkids, rather than be a man and pay your own bill, as cigarette smokers now pay their own health care costs, and in the case of carbon fuel war, health, and future earth-wreckage costs should be paid today with a 100% Dividend and Fee policy such as outlined here, that's your responsibility, not mine, not the 'alaarmists' -  http://books.google.com/books?id=mwva_7dPyAcC&printsec=frontcover&dq=james+hansen+nasa&hl=en&sa=X&ei=1dNLT4HwKI2x0AHo0q2EDg&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=fee%20dividend&f=false .

Oh, there is plenty to detest, ridicule, be outraged among the 'alarmists,' lip-service left, 'progressives!'  I AM, 1000x more than you, I'm certain!  Here are some recent posts about the unspeakable coward Joseph Romm, for example, #1 Climate Change blogger, excellence science writing, and cowardly, blaming, whining, to the core, so typical of the left.  http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/2012/02/is-joe-romm-at-think-progress-denier.html , http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/2012/02/1-joe-romm-slams-obama-will-he-censor.html , and http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/2012/02/joe-romm-slams-obama-will-he-censor.html .

Aren't you proud enough to take responsibility for your own actions?  I am.

Melting Snowe: Another ‘Moderate’ Retires from the Senate

Objectively, scientifically, there is only one force in the universe strong enough to successfully oppose 7 of the 10 largest corporations on earth, the oil companies.  It is the same, 'only,' force that was strong enough to overcome slavery, get rid of Mubarak, stop Hittler, win Civil Rights.... Simple.

Not if you are the coward Joe Romm.  If he faced this truth, he'd have to start telling the readers of this Think Progress auth-whore things they don't want to hear - personal responsibility, it's up to us, stop blaming everyone but yourselves.... 

Oh, he's sometimes direct as in yesterday's laughable screed blaming all on Pr. Obama, 'Failed Presidency,' uh, except by EVERY objective measure.  A deliberate attempt to deflect attention away from how he and the Climate Country Club have squandered every and all opportunities - making a total waste of their lives?  But direct, or indirect, his cowardly, disingenuous efforts to direct 'blame' everywhere but where it can threaten the status quo, at we the people, his unfailing cowardice can be depended upon.

Joe, perfect. You are perfectly consistent in your blaming of Pr. Obama of our failure, we-the-sheeple, we-the-cowardly-blaming-spectators. How can you be so smart on climate science and so stupid on politics? Obama can’t do our job for us. I don’t believe you are that stupid as to not know that. I must conclude therefore that you are willfully a coward. Just another Leftie auth-whore shilling, ‘oh, it’s not your responsibility progressives.’ ‘Oh, its’ not your fault Left citizens.’ ‘No, it is Obama’s fault!’
We broke our bargain on election night, the central fact of the last 3 years, nicely, aggressively, unfailingly obscured by the likes of you Romm, and armies of Leftie fantasy land pundits at your side. See, the presidency has no magical powers. If FDR hadn’t had a do-more-than-blame-citizenry, well, we’d have a Nazi flag over the White House. But you must know this. So, enjoy auth-whoring this valuable blog space.
It is the likes of you Joe, who could have, should have known better, that will lead this list of those going down in infamy.

A 'LOVING' NOTE TO OCCUPY DC. POSTED TO THIER SITE TODAY -

http://occupydc.org/information/schedule/
 Said moderator approval required.  Who knows if they'll publish it. My business was to offer.  Their business whether to heed.

The note......


Friends, among those few in history I admire is Dorothy Day, who along with Peter Maurin founded the Catholic Worker movement. Early on Dorothy decided that a regular newspaper would provide badly needed revenue, among other things. She poured her heart and soul into the first issue. When she showed it to Peter he said, in so many words, 'This is crap.' She was utterly devastated. 'Anything that has something for everyone is nothing of promise to anyone,' was the gist of his explanation. She was crushed. But she cared for the world's neediest more than she cared about her own hurt. So, she found the courage to see that Peter was right, redoubled her efforts, made the tough decisions on what the paper really stood for, avoided ever making the mistake again, and the paper continues today, as does the movement. 

You articulate clearly on this site that you forgive yourselves for not having the answers on what you stand for. My generation has provided you the most hideous example, nothing you can follow, except to your doom. You are therefore to be forgiven. But for how long? The global neediest don't have long; 26,000 kids will die needlessly, tomorrow, and then the next day... because none of us have made it a priority to see what needs to be done, and DO IT. 

You young folks, you don't have long if you are planning on making a home on Earth, because unless all the science is wrong (the bet of a sociopath) you have only months, MONTHS to make this upcoming election your generation's moon-shot moment to reduce carbon 80% by 2020. How? BY FINDING YOUR OWN SANITY. BY FINDING YOUR OWN RIGHTEOUS, UNVIOLENT RAGE, RAGE, AT WHAT MY GENERATION HAS DONE TO YOU, IS DOING TO YOU, EVERY DAY!  By any and every objective, actuarial measure YOU, YOU, YOU, are paying 80% of the bill on my generation's every drop of oil, and every lump of coal burned today, and yesterday, and tomorrow. How? Well, 1. Most of the ACTUAL, tho carefully ‘hidden,’ price of fossil fuels is in the wreckage cost of Earth that you will be forced to pay for, fortifying our dozen or so sea level cities against climate change's rising of sea levels, for example; and 2. The multi-trillion dollar Debt accumulating hour by hour for our totally needless Oil Wars ongoing in the middle east, debt, you will have to pay off. Needless wars? YOU have 8 times as much wind, and 200 times as much sun in this country as you need for the entire economy, WITH TODAY'S TECHNOLOGY, AND IT IS CHEAPER, AND IT PROVIDES ABOUT 8 TIMES THE JOBS AS DOES FOSSIL FUELS. You are getting screwed, SCREWED, and so far, you are too stupid, to distracted with your self-righteous playing, ranting, self-indulgent experimenting… to do anything about it.

And soon, there will be nothing you can do about it. NOTHING. FOREVER, that is, unless 98% percent of the scientists qualified to weigh in on the matter are all lying to you, along with NASA, Lawrence Livermore Labs, the Pentagon, MIT, Cambridge, Stanford, Cornell...............

But today, you can head off 80-90% of this environmental armageddon that otherwise is an eternally irreparable certainty for you. You need to do what was done when finally, folks like you got off their asses, and said 'ENOUGH' to the cigarette cancer deniers. KEEP SMOKING if you want, they said, but YOU ARE GOING TO PAY YOUR HEALTH COSTS, NOT US, WE DON'T SMOKE. You need to do the same thing, get off your asses and tell the fossil fuel denier industry, ENOUGH! Burn your coal and oil if you want, but YOU, NOT WE, ARE GOING TO PAY THE WRECKAGE COSTS, THE WAR COSTS. THAT'S IT. THAT'S ALL YOU'VE GOT TO DO. And anything else, anything less, and you're screwed, and your kids are screwed, forever. Uh, FOREVER.  Period.

Here's how YOU NEED TO MAKE IT TO BE from now on - NASA's Jim Hansen has laid it out beautifully here - http://books.google.com/books?id=mwva_7dPyAcC&printsec=frontcover&dq=james+hansen+nasa&hl=en&sa=X&ei=1dNLT4HwKI2x0AHo0q2EDg&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=fee%20dividend&f=false . Fee and dividend. Fee and 100% dividend to every US citizen of record, every month. $10 per ton of carbon fee, increasing $10 per year, collected on carbon fuels at the mine, well or port, distributed to citizens of record 100% as a dividend every month. NO CAP AND TRADE.  NO TAX.  Fee, and Dividend.  The market will do the rest. You want to drive an SUV? Live it up. Waste your dividend endlessly, needlessly at the pump. Don't want to waste your dividend endlessly? Use it to get a plug-in hybrid, to get a few solar panels, for geo-thermal heating/cooling for your house. YOU DECIDE. BUT IF YOU AIN'T DOING THE WRECKAGE, YOU AIN'T GUNNA PAY FOR IT ANY MORE. THAT'S UN-AMERICAN. THAT'S STUPID.  STOP BEING CRIMINALLY STUPID.
If any of you in Occupy get tired of playing activist, get serious about your future, please, PLEASE, let me know.

Santorum, GOPigs, GOD IS TRUTH. STOP PISSING ON GOD: WashPo - Santorum's Lies, Kennedy's Truth

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/post/angry-rick-santorum-throws-up-on-jfk/2011/03/04/gIQA4tiidR_blog.html?tid=pm_opinions_pop

Joan Walsh over at Salon has a terrific deep dive on what Kennedy actually said, which is the opposite of Santorum’s characterization. “Of course, there’s no place in Kennedy’s speech where he said ‘people of faith are not allowed in the public square,’ or anything close to that, and Santorum’s saying it three times doesn’t make it true.” Courtesy of Walsh, here is what Kennedy said:

I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute, where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote; where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference; and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him.

I believe in an America that is officially neither Catholic, Protestant nor Jewish; where no public official either requests or accepts instructions on public policy from the Pope, the National Council of Churches or any other ecclesiastical source; where no religious body seeks to impose its will directly or indirectly upon the general populace or the public acts of its officials; and where religious liberty is so indivisible that an act against one church is treated as an act against all.

For while this year it may be a Catholic against whom the finger of suspicion is pointed, in other years it has been, and may someday be again, a Jew— or a Quaker or a Unitarian or a Baptist. It was Virginia’s harassment of Baptist preachers, for example, that helped lead to Jefferson’s statute of religious freedom. Today I may be the victim, but tomorrow it may be you — until the whole fabric of our harmonious society is ripped at a time of great national peril.
