  1. I've actually run into that before. It doesn't really say what you think it says, if what you think it says is that races don't exist. It's simply a rejection of racial hierarchies; something I reject entirely. This thread is not about one race being "better" than another; it's about the fact that the Caucasian race may at some point cease to exist if current immigration and birthrate trends in the west continue. And frankly, even if it DID say what you think it says, it's only a "study" in the Socialist Register...the "New Left" of the 1990s (which came along after the "New Left" became as much a laughingstock as the "Old Left"). So it's nothing more than opinion cleaned up and legitimated by inclusion in a political journal.
  2. I know what you mean. I feel dirty....
  3. Is there some purpose to this post? You're not actually saying anything...you're simply making accusations. What would you call the calls to prayer from atop minarets? I call it screaming...would you prefer to call it "speaking loudly?"
  4. Sweatshops are often the only employment available in parts of Asia. Take them away and you take away the sole source of income for entire families in countries that have no welfare system at all. Boycott "sweatshops" and you boycott the lives of people who depend on them.
  5. I stand corrected, assuming one picks the site with the higher number of executions to believe. That hardly makes a material difference to the point however. There simply is no equivalency. There isn't. Parsing out numbers to see whether it took 65 years or 50 years to execute by due process enough convicted murderers to equal the number of innocents killed in one day by Islamic thugs is so ridiculous that it's laughable. It's almost comic relief. How many people will the global Jihad kill today? 100? 150? Or will it stick to a lower level of terror and only saw the heads off a couple innocent schoolgirls here and blow up a few folks in a bazaar there? So far they've only killed 7 today, so maybe it won't be so bad: /7/07 Pal. Auth. Gaza 2 Two Gaza children, ages 6 and 8, are killed by a rocket fired at Israel by a Palestinian Islamic group. 8/7/07 Thailand Yala 1 A man is murdered and his body burned by Islamic separatists. 8/7/07 Thailand Pattani 2 A roadside bombing by Muslim radicals leaves two Thai soldiers dead. 8/7/07 Somalia Banadir 2 http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/ How many Blacks will the KKK lynch today? How many people will the IRA kill today? How many people will the Spanish Inquisition kill today? This week? This year? In the next 100 years? Buffy, you can call that a hate site all you want, but all it does is collect facts and MSM op-eds and news reports, so if it's a hate site, it is because it catalogues hate...the kind of hate you defend with your "LOL"s and flippant Code Pink cliches.
  6. Not to "slam" yo," but care to explain what you are talking about?
  7. That has already been answered time after time, and in fact I have answered it myself. First, your question is predicated upon a false assumption: there is no "vast majority" claiming anything. Second, as usual you, like all Church of GW apologists, fail to define the issue. What do you mean by "global warming?" That the earth is warming? I can agree that maybe it's warming, although that's far from a given. That humanity is causing it? I doubt it, and so do a great many scientists, your "vast majority" notwithstanding. That it's a catastrophe? If anything I think it's a benefit, if only for an extended growing season. So does the financial world, given the number of "global warming" funds opening up to take your money (let me be clear here that just because a fund says it is sectorally invested doesn't mean it can't invest in any damned thing it wants; see: "ethical funds."). In other words, the existence of new "global warming" funds has more to do with marketing a fad than with Global Warming. In a nutshell then, my position is: 1 Maybe it's happening 2 If it is, it's probably not manmade 3 If it is, whether it's manmade or not, it's a good thing and not a bad thing. Third, as for some "conspiracy," those are your words, not mine. I would call it an "industry," and I would call it that because that's what it has become. It started like any fad in academia; in the same way "Y2K began," and "women's studies" before that, and "Black Studies" before that; as a fad guaranteed to generate grant money. Because it suited the purpose of so many other groups...far more than any of the previous fads, it caught on bigtime. Think about it; this fad is appealing to everybody: political groups ranging from the Green and current Liberal parties to the UN, love it because it's a ready made platform of promises that never have to be kept; existing environmental groups love it because it obviously generates donations; outright socialists love it because it's a great platform to argue for global socialism a la Kyoto, and MOST important , capitalists love it because it's an excellent marketing tool that simply can't be beat! I could go on, but I think this pretty much covers the main points. So it's not a "conspiracy," it's a convergence of interests. And around those interests an industry has come into being. Wanna sell mutual funds? Market "global warming" funds, the 'ethical funds' of the 21st century. They invest in the same damned things any tech fund invests in, but the name gives everyone the warm fuzzies and a feeling of combatting big bad GW. Want a job as a reporter? Market yourself as an "environmental reporter"...a whole new category that has recently come into being...the market is crying out for them. Want an academic grant? link your issue to GW in some way, no matter how farfetched. Want to market anything? Link it to global warming! (go to e-bay and type it in and watch what happens). Now, back the actual point at hand...like I said, the number of scientists coming out to refute this fabricated nonsense are increasing. The number of scientists defending the claims, and in particular the apocapyptic claims, are decreasing.
  8. I recommend that you start posting like an adult instead of "LOL" some valley "LOL" girl in a chatroom "LOL!" And I mean that in some seriousness, since your flippant and unsubstantiated claims, coupled with your vacuous gagmewithaspoonisms, amount to jamming. By the way, what's a "rebuttle?"
  9. It's true...although I think it's sometimes not so much stupidity as an inability to apply logic to situations.
  10. Hey, you didn't answer me. What university did you go to that had two or more separate prayer rooms for different faiths?
  11. In other words, "oops, I'm wrong, but no way am I going to admit it." Yes, you should be proud that the US has killed fewer people than Islam.
  12. The factoid I presented said explicitely "65 years." That renders your entire post irrelevant, except for an attempted smear at the website. You may not have noticed, but aside from MSM op-eds, that website presents only facts. I know you "LOL" don't like those "LOL" facts, and they gag you with a spoon and so on, but they are nonetheless facts.
  13. I can't add much to what Momo said, except that even if the factoid took the death toll from the KKK since inception, it wouldn't come close to even a year and probably not even 3 months of death toll from the global Jihad.
  14. Not any more. Now it's a graveyard.
  15. Apparently you've turned into a sheep. Have a nice day...don't get fleeced.
  16. So you drove through it and observed that the town is "killed?" There are boarded up shops? Well guess what? Horse and buggy shops closed too...should they have boycotted cars to save them? It sounds from Momo's "propagabnda link" that business is booming there...just not the 1950s kind of business. And yes, Walmart probably is helping business there. When there are more employed people, there is more disposable income, meaning more retail, meaning better economy. Regional economy too. I bought a can a bug spray at Frank's store in Cherryville. I paid $12.53 for it. Yesterday I saw it at Walmart for less than half of that. Would I pay $12.53 for it again? Probably, because driving a whack of klicks back to Vernon to save a few dollars doesn't make sense. Would I pay $12.53 for it if Frank's stare was next door to Waklmart? Not a chance. And next time I'll remember to bring bug spray. Frank's store serves a purpose. So does walmart. If Frank's store could put walmart out of business, I'm sure it would.
  17. Nope. That says pretty much everything I need to hear about your intellectual credibility.
  18. I daresay I read history somewhat more extensively than you. You didn't even read this thread.
  19. I've learned that I need to ask for links from you. Links?
  20. This is just one more example of the ever-growing surge of reality intruding into this "debate". Oops...there go the last shreds of Dion's platform...
  21. Errrr, no. Jobs are not a zero sum game that merely flow into some other nook and cranny of the economy. That's not how the cookie crumbles.
  22. So in other words, shown the bancrupcy of your moral equivalency argument, you dispense with an actual argument and merely start tossing out unsubstantiated accusations. Who do you think did do 911? Why do you think 2,000,000 British Muslims support it?
  23. Well I have to give it to the Ron Paul idiots...they sure know how to manipulate straw polls. On Little Green Footballs it's even a running joke...Ron Paul apparently has a site that mobilizes his paltry minions to vote in every internet straw poll out there. http://littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/?en...ebate_Poll&only LGF http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=10635 So much for integrity.
  24. What happened to the 911 thugs? What happened to the 7% (2,000,000) British Muslims who think 911 was a good thing? Do 7% of British Christians think mass murder is a good thing?
  25. In defence of Momo, he means well. He's just not real good at economics...he thinks that half the story is better than none of it.
