Woe is me.

Remarkable, loved every word! I've e-mailed it to anyone I can think of, of any importance.

Please keep writing about Global Warming -- you're spot on. Keep up the good work,

Well said Mr. Thornberry. Somewhere, Ronald Reagan is shaking his head in disbelief. Oh, I forgot, the Republican intelligentsia has told us to get over Ronald Reagan. Sorry. It appears that for Mr. McCain and the RNC, judgment day is coming, and it cometh soon. It won't be pretty either.
-- A. DiPentima

In his article about global warming panic, Mr. Thornberry does not mention two organizations of scientists and professionals who expressed their negative views on this panic propagated by the far left. One is "The petition on global warming," signed by over 21,000 scientists and professionals, which states that human activities have no influence on the earth's climate; the other is found under "climatescienceinternational.org" similarly supported by hundreds of scientists in opposition to that global warming panic. This warm-mongering should be compared to the medieval scares of the coming end of the world. Consensus -- indeed!

Will someone please help me! I can't make which party's presidential candidate is worse: a Harvard-educated Carter redux whose ignorance of history and economics is truly awe-inspiring, if not down-right apocalyptic, a mentally dysfunctional old man suffering from Global Warming Fried Brain syndrome? At least that race-baiting, cackling pantsuit is just about out of the picture.

For now.

Unfortunately I can believe McCain is buying off on this "green baloney."

When we need leadership most in the country our choices have been reduced to Larry, Moe, and Curly.

As El Rusbo says, "we're so screwed."

I have to respectfully disagree with the author's assertion that McCain is not "just stupid." The man's admitted he's ignorant about economics, yet he's proposing an enormous, complicated, government-run economic policy.

Messing with things you own up to knowing nothing about is pretty much my definition of stupid.
-- Tricia Carr
Laguna Niguel, California

Larry Thornberry's last sentence says it all: "perhaps it's Republicans we don't need." Exactly right. We need conservatives, not the watered down version of socialism Republicans are currently selling.

McCain's "not stupid"? He's apparently willing to alienate the voters he desperately needs to win in November. How smart is that?
