Point was that he can only sell his theory to people that are stupid and don't do their own research. Nothing is preventing people from looking at a radar map and seeing that there will be no rain. People blindly trust those in power (yes, a weatherman's power is small) to not lie to them for their own personal benefit. If they get duped it's their own fault.Pochsy wrote:

Who. Cares. He's got to keep a household 10 times larger than your average American home, too. Guess they don't consider that? Yes he HAS to keep a large household- if former presidents lives in penury the portrait of the country would certainly start to run.

Why aren't televangelists thrown in prison when they promise Heaven for a donation? They can't prove it and even the most fervent Christian knows that you can't buy your way into heaven, thus it is a lie. Yet, they get away with it every Sunday.ATG wrote:

"Is he committing financial fraud? That is the question," Coleman said.
"Since we can't get a debate, I thought perhaps if we had a legal challenge and went into a court of law, where it was our scientists and their scientists, and all the legal proceedings with the discovery and all their documents from both sides and scientific testimony from both sides, we could finally get a good solid debate on the issue," Coleman said. "I'm confident that the advocates of 'no significant effect from carbon dioxide' would win the case." "
So, why is Al Gore being allowed a pass when he has gotten caught red handed turning a known fraud and lie into a billion dollar ponzi scheme?
He should be in prison having butt sex with berni Maddoff.
Catholic church sells get out of hell free cards (free but costs a lot lel) called indulgances. Kinda like how Gore sells us our guilt about "carbon footprint."JohnG@lt wrote:

There's nothing illegal about lying. You just don't have to buy what the man is selling.
because the u.s. senate and the u.n. don't go crazy with business killing legislation when pat roberts opens his hole.JohnG@lt wrote:

No they don't. Some people back in the Middle Ages corrupted the meaning and process of doling out indulgences for personal gain. That was part of Luther's beef and had a partial impact in the schism.Cybargs wrote:

You are way off the mark here. If Al Gore is serious about what he feels then he could easily convert his home into a green home that actually would not cost him or the environment one red cent. There is technology that can turn any home into a power producer instead of an energy drain. Especially with his position and his money, he could easily do it, but he doesnt and that tells me he does not even believe or care about his own agenda unless it is about money.Pochsy wrote:

Perhaps, but I never banned anyone for disagreeing with me, so fuck you if you say otherwise. I resigned in part to be able to speak my mind, so, fuck you if you don't like my message, and rebut it or shut the hell up.ghettoperson wrote:

It's nice to be able to post that without fear of a banning. Or an angry letter.
So you hold Tim McVeigh on a pedestal too? The guy is a mass murderer, not a hero.ATG wrote:

That being said, I am sorry i missed you in vegas.
