putting the argument aside, I do find it curious that issues like poverty, climate change, body bags seem to fall off the radar when there's a Democrat in office. Same shit happened with Clinton.

Health Care is one of the biggest issues to ever be dealt with.

We are currently fighting two wars.

The economy of the US and the world has essentially crashed.

Doesn't matter what people "believe" is happening according to polls. It matters what is actually happening according to the evidence.

The polar ice caps are shrinking.

The oceans are warming.

Human beings are currently causing the greatest
mass extinction of species since the extinction of
the dinosaurs 65 million years ago.

These things are happening.

Believe it or not.

DONNERBOY - "Human beings are currently causing..."

That is the great point of contention.

Why is it Liberals will not accept Global warming is caused by Solar Cycles. New York City was once a giant glacier that later melted as the planet warmed, try and ask Al Gore about that and see if your mike gets cut off...

A large portion of the population doesn't think evolution occurs either.

This isn't surprising nor particularly newsworthy IMO.

I was going to go to a Stop Global Warming Now! rally today, but there's a blizzard at my house. So I stayed in.

Because that myth has been debunked by the experts(NASA, NOAA, etc.) many times. You'll have to come up with a new myth.

"Save the dinosaurs!"

Bush put the Thesaurus on the endangered species list. Why? He's never seen one and assumed they were extinct ...
