© Bruce Beattie What I find ironic about this is that many of the actual arguments that are being tossed back and forth about global warming are based on clichés. For example, every time there is a cold snap, some idiot argues that it proves that the climate isn’t warming.

“Hey, last night I watched Oprah’s White House Christmas special. President Obama told Oprah he deserves a ‘solid B-plus’ for his first year in office.

© Lalo Alcaraz I find it very interesting how the whole health care reform thing has played out in Congress.

Think scientists who warn us about climate change are just playing chicken little? Do you believe that the ClimateGate hacked emails prove that global warming is a hoax? Political Relief has a hilarious debate set in 1941 concerning the risk from Germany and Japan. The best lines come from the “Global War Denier”: What’s your […]
