    Name those scientists you say you trust to tell you the truth. We have no need to move to higher ground since the myth we are going to be under the surface of the ocean is a flat out lie.

    It was unfairly handed to Obama so for it to go to Trump should be a great honor to America. Trump has earned his prize.

    People who do not take freedom serious end up losing their own freedom. Democrats take us down that path.

    Ask one of them if he hates laws and regulations. They will not tell you they hate either. But they pour their laws and regulations on us as were we needing more.

    If you walk out your front door right into being regulated, you lost your freedom.

    Frankly you have been bamboozled by the wrong people. The same people whining own the police forces. And if you think they are counter to what they do, think it over again.

    In other terms, a man blasts you for having sex with his daughter. But you learn it is actually him having sex with her. And now you must decide who is correct. Democrats are not to be trusted. Ever.

    You are correct that bad choices often lead to a life lived in squalor. You might want to watch Pat Mayo on Facebook and he is also on Youtube to see whites living in squalor who are having problems with the cops. Most of his cases are with whites too. And if you think they make good Democrats, maybe that is true.

    1. Two things about Iran. . .First, the money given to Iran by the Obama administration was not American money. It was money that belonged to Iran, but was frozen by the U.S. after the hostage situation in Iran during the Carter administration. We simply released the hold we'd had on it for decades. Second, Iran did comply with the agreement we made with them. Every official observer who visited Iran confirmed that fact. Trump broke the agreement. Trump broke the word of the U.S. for no reason other than personal distrust of Iran. There was no other reason for doing that. Trump made it appear that the U.S. was no longer to be trusted by anyone stupid enough to sign an agreement with us. That's bad leadership.
    2. The Paris Accord accomplished getting most of the nations of the world working together on one single project, peacefully. Explain your claim that that accord threatened the U.S. in any way.
    3. It's too early to say whether Man can control climate, but it's clear Man can seriously impact climate. Man caused the current crisis over time. Man is the only possible solution to that crisis now that it's here.

    Racist

    Never suggested we could, at this time, "control the climate." To suggest anyone has seriously suggested "controlling the climate" is simply a self serving lie.

    What we can do is control the amount of damage we do to the environment, the atmosphere and oceans have a tremendous effect on climate and the damage we do in those places shows up in the climate.

    Solution. Do not build your home on a Glacier. Do not locate where you will suffer meltwater. There is far too much good property to live like a porpoise.

    The main research scientists claiming ocean rise are Climatologists, a sub-specialty of Geography. They are a very precise science group. Ocean rise is no myth. They are rising now. The source of all the new water entering the oceans is from melting glaciers, especially at the poles. Most of the Arctic glaciers are already floating atop the surface, so they won't add to the ocean rise, but any glaciers located on land, that melt off into the oceans will cause rise. Greenland is the main source in the N Hemisphere; Antarctica in the S Hemisphere. Different computer models predict between 1 & 8.2 feet of seal level rise this century before the year 2100, depending on how successfully we are trying to fix it. One foot rise would flood flat coastal regions, but wouldn't be too difficult to cope with. Over 8 feet of rise would change coastlines around the world & impact billions of people in coastal cities.

    I knew ahead of you posting your excuse would be the money was Iran's. So you honor the Muslims who do not honor deals?
    That was some hostage situation as you put it. It cost Carter his presidency. Iran got the best deal they could get from Obama. Money and glory to their god that Obama would not rule them long.

    Obama had no authority to make that deal. Congress should have done it. Had he done it properly, Trump could not undo it.
    We do not belong being managed by countries in the Paris accord. We have helped the global climate more than almost all other nations.
    I do not find proof man even impacts climate. Some claim all we can do is tweak temperatures a tiny bit. I mean 2 degrees is tiny.

    We do not have a climate crisis. This myth was sold here in America by only Democrats. And any scientist that does not agree is called names and accused of helping big oil.

    Big oil has been our nations driver for a very long time. It is like blaming the babysitter for being too beautiful. Oil has caused the prosperity of America.

    The rise is so minor it does not even need be mentioned. And you can't name those scientists can you? Ice in the Arctic is on water so when melted it does not cause ocean sea level to rise. And you must not know this but at Iceland there remains over 99 percent of the same ice as was there in 1900.

    Antarctica has gained so much more ice it has caused glaciers to move down to the ocean so there is no shortage of ice there.

    Here is proof that there is far more ice now than in the past.

    Here is the story of this Crane.

    • In the mid 1960s, ITT built a power transmission line in Antarctica. The transmission towers stood 115 feet tall.
    • As you can see in these photos, all but the top 30 feet of the towers are now buried in ice.
    • And the crane used to build the towers will soon be totally covered by ice. (By the way. If you know what kind of crane this is, or how tall it is, please let me know.)
    • Not only are the power transmission towers being buried, so are the Antarctic research stations themselves.
    • The old Byrd Station has been shut down because it is buried beneath 40 to 50 feet of ice and snow and is slowly being crushed.
    • The old South Pole station is also buried beneath the ice.
    • So is the old Siple station.
    • The current South Pole station is also slowly being buried. A new station is now being built on top of the ice to replace it.

    No one has built homes on glaciers. Glaciers melt during summer & provide fresh water reserves that are collected for human use. Most of the population of Nepal, N India, Bangladesh, & other nations in that region depend on meltwater from glaciers on the Himalaya. Chunks of France, Italy Switzerland & Germany depend on meltwater from the Alps. Salt Lake City, UT depends on meltwater from the nearby Wasatch & Oquirrh Mountains for their water supply. This is a story in hundreds or thousands of locales. Every one of those communities will be looking for new lands to migrate to--lands with water--if the glaciers die.

    Salt Lake City is 4226 ft elevation and the city has grown since I lived there. I can see why they want more water. Knowing the LDS as I know them they have a solution in mind. For example in the area of Park City they can construct a major reservoir.

    That is the old name calling trick. See Muslims are not a race. That is a religion.

    None of this does anybody any good if man can't control climate.

    Nope. Not why.

    I voted for him once. I liked the things Candidate Obama said. Unfortunately, Candidate Obama never told President Obama. He lost me quickly; I gave him a year.

    As an old teacher I remember when we came under heavy criticism for being tooitive to the self esteem of our students. I think it is ironic that some of those same critics are now concerned about the fragile psyche of a 74 year old man.

    LOL. They certainly are giving President Snowflake some safe space while he does a money grab for his Super Pac.

    Yes, candidate Obama was a "nice man" just like Joseph Biden and, and Mister Rogers. I like a President for what he is able to accomplish....that doesn't mean I'd want him to watch my grandkids! You have to remember next time you vote.....you get a President for four years! The one you tried to elect this time wouldn't make that. You'd be dealing with Kamala the Commie.

    I keep saying, he's well liked in the Senate. Obama was not. McConnell and he are friends. He's a Blue Dog - completely moderate.

    I am cautiously optimistic that there's room for America to move on, even if just a little. We'll see.

    I may be wrong; probably wrong, but, I am a glass half full kind of person. I always know there's room for growth. It's a core belief.

    I didn't vote for Obama because he's a nice guy. That's true, but not why. He seemed to understand the issues. He just didn't know how to lead.

    Which nearly anyone can. The nomination is very definitely NOT the prize with the Nobel

    Are those ALL of the towers, obviously not, so can we see some others that are nearly buried? If not, how do we know that there aren't other towers that are standing high and dry of the snow?

    In the Antarctic snow NEVER melts, period, and that means that any snow that doesn't get buried by other snow and turned back to glacial ice by compression just stays there and gets blown about. It MOVES in other words. The snow burying those towers and Byrd's station might very well have first fallen centuries or even millennia in the past

    The Antarctic has always been known as one of the world's driest deserts. Overall rainfall for the entire continent is less than 5 inches. The areas called the Dry Valleys are the driest places on Earth with some (and I have no idea how they know this but they say it's so) showing no evidence of any rain having fallen for the last several million years

    Why do you continually argue about this crap. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. You have no training in science. You post crap that shows a lack of critical thinking to say the least. Your anecdotes are not proof of anything and can always be explained by anyone with even a child's level of understanding.

    Why are you wasting the little time you have left on crackpot nonsense?
