Or global climate disruptions or whatever they call it these days, the latest weapon to save the planet is... the official EPA climate change rap. (http://www.epa.gov/climateforaction/learn/rap.htm)

I'm speechless.

Well, Congress has been pulling the EPA's teeth and it will probably soon be toothless. So, this may be payback... a lousy song you cannot get out of your head. Damn you...

I think if ALL the environazis commit mass suicide there will be that many less people breathing carbon dioxide, spewing hot air and farting methane. And it will go further than ANYTHING else they have proposed. And if they cared as much as they claim... they would make the personal sacrifice and do it.

Hello:

I wonder how the flat earthers felt when they found out the earth was actually round...

I'll bet those diehard believers NEVER changed their minds, just like I don't believe YOU ever will.

Come on and Click it, flip it, turn the handle to the right, turn off the water, twist the handle real tight. Slip on your sneakers, lace them up tight, leave the car parked you know that’s all right. Public transportation is the way to go, it’s one of the ways to keep emissions low, you can ride your bike, instead of the car, if we save on fuel then we’ll all go far.

You can pick up paper and recycle it too, and there are many other things that you can do. You can click off the game boy, flip off the light, while you’re brushing your teeth, turn the handle to the right. Close the fridge door - keep it shut tight, no food has been added since the middle of the night. A 5 minute shower is all that’s needed to keep energy from being depleted. A long sleeve sweater is what I know – will keep you toasty and the fuel bills low. Plant a tree in your neighborhood, besides giving shade you know it looks real good.

The USA is where we are to kick a new trend and to raise the bar. The climate is changing and that’s a fact, bears don’t know when to take a nap, On top of that it won’t be cool when the flood waters rise and mosquitoes rule. It’s time to get off the couch and start to move.

OK, so I thought the EPA rap was bad, now we have groups - led by former Obamanoid Van Jones included - pushing to give nature the same rights as humans.

Say YES! to Rights of Nature (http://therightsofnature.org/)

The left doesn't believe in rights for babies in the womb, but I'll be darned if they don't think rocks should be granted human rights. I believe it's because they have rocks in their heads, but I digress.

So does the beaver have the right to cut down the tree or does the tree have the right not to be killed by the beaver? Will you still be allowed to treat a termite infestation or do they get the house? Can I treat my lawn for fleas and ticks or do they get a free ride on my dogs? Will my dogs get arrested for scratching off the fleas? Can I even have a lawn or should the weeds be allowed to take over? This is all very complicated.

The difference here is nobody has given the Westboro church a license to do what they want and force everyone to do their bidding. THey do have that same freedom of speech the left was so fond of when Cindy Shehan was spewing her crap.

The Left HAS given the EPA free reign to operate outside the boundaries of the law or oversight. And that is an important distinction between those two.

I mentioned Van Jones is largely behind this, a guy appointed by Obama as his green jobs czar. I'd say that makes him a leader one way or another. No one gives the Phelps any credibility but themselves.

Yes ,these 'nutjobs' represent the highest levels of our government . The EPA was given broad ,almost dictatory discretion on the environment ;and Van Jones was a key White House environmental czar until his crazy rhetoric became too over the top even for the Obots.

Van Jones represents 'mainstream' left thinking I think that the sooner you understand that no one person represents a whole group you'll understand things better. Try to think of people as individuals not groups.

That's a good question. I don't know. But I'm pretty sure that it isn't "one". I think you'll be pretty hard pressed to find a large number of people that share the same views. Why are you so interested in grouping people? Does it satisfy a need for you to belong to a group?
