		<description>No climatologist academic, today, dare espouse a theory that global warming is not gospel but needs studying. He will never see grant money from private or government sources. So says the Head of the MIT Department of Climotology Science (April 12, 2006 (or so)Wall Street Journal. The MIT guy stated that one degree of change since 1900, mean global temperature, is not proof of imminent calamity.
Idelogues are not the exclusive domain of the Conservative Administration. Professors who desire grant money, speak as they are expected. Closet communists or statists seeking redistribution of wealth from North to South, from haves to havenots by decree seek Climotology salutions that accomplish their goals, Marx having failed politically, so publically.</description>

		<description>#69, Thanks, Ryan.  I think I do my part as voting judge to see that voting is fair, but I can only hope nothing illegal happens.  (We HAVE seen our strong R. area swing to upper-40&#039;s toward D. so I am somewhat assured that at least my little corner is doing OK -- next time it should be in the 50&#039;s). We must work toward non-electronic balloting nationwide.
I have also thought about your scenario for Louisiana.
#70, Great retort to a nut case.  The nuts will not be swayed, but your points will benefit others.</description>

		<description>&quot;On Lies? How about CLINTON.
Gimme a break! &quot;

If you think someone not wanting their personal life being dragged out into the public is equivalent to fabricating an international war based on lies - then you&#039;re just a blithering idiot!  You guys all talk about &#039;morals&#039; and &#039;what about the children&#039;, and yet Clinton wasn&#039;t parading in front of the children with this &#039;immorality&#039;, it took the REPUBLICANS to do this.  It would be equivalent of you showing porn on the nightly news so children could see - and accusing the porn makers of corrupting minors!

You guys are just nuts!  And did I mention hypocritical idiots?</description>

		<description>Marie,

The paperless voting machines are the ones that are the most susceptible because they can&#039;t be cross checked - but the diebold &#039;tally machine&#039; is also susceptible.  What that means is that if you have a shady elections official he can change the numbers even though there are printed copies that would prove this false.  This also happened in many states as well unfortunately.

The only states that didn&#039;t appear to have significant voter fraud in 2004 were Arizona, Colorado, Louisiana, Michigan, Iowa, New Mexico, Maine, Nevada, Arkansas and Missouri

And how much do you want to bet that part of the upgrade to louisiana includes the new fangled electronic voting machines that suddenly swings louisiana republican?  And they&#039;ll use the miserable  excuse of &#039;well we handled katrina so well&#039;, and the mainstream press will never bother to question their propaganda...

You&#039;re right we should press for no electronic only machines - but we should also press for tally machines that cannot be tampered with!  And that would require diebold to do the right thing - and we all know that this isn&#039;t going to happen!

Unfortunately the reichwingers are taking all of the duped conservatives, and everyone else on a ride down the lane of fascism.  And many of them are either so convinced that they are winning that the refuse to accept the reality that they&#039;re really just stealing.

Bush&#039;s approval rating clearly shows most americans do not agree with him or his direction - and yet if they steal 2006 the idiots (and their troll soldiers) will find some way to rationalize this theft to themselves as the &#039;right thing&#039;. They honestly believe the ends justify the means - so stealing the election in order to accomplish their goals is &#039;ok&#039;...  They are the most unamerican generation this country has ever raised!</description>

		<description>To Pablo:  Who the heck cares what you think.  You&#039;re from Mexico.  You got your own problems.  Kerry would have set this nation back 200 years.  You want him, you can have him, along with Edwards.</description>

		<description>Ryan,
I have a question -- in my state, we use a scanning machine. I have been an election judge several times, and I don&#039;t see - on the surface - how those votes might be jiggered.  I have asked at training sessions, but of course, they tell me only how secure they are.
I am under the impression that it is the paperless votes that are the susceptible ones.  Is that correct?  If so, then we must demand that paperless votes be illegal.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;francis&lt;/i&gt; said something about already having lost the race against global warming.  We don&#039;t really know that, but that comment, i think, speaks to a deep unknowability about this whole enterprise.  On a fundamental level, there is no proper experiment that can be run.  There are two alternatives:

1) we curb our environmental excesses, avoid some major problems, and never really know what would have happened

2) we don&#039;t, and we find out that in fact, it is true that we could have katrina-level hurricanes buffeting the united states every day for the rest of our lives and watch thousands die daily until the human race is completely wiped out.

There is no mystery that the experiment cannot be run.  Anyone who argues against being concerned about global warming cannot, in good faith, ignore this fundamental unknowability.  Is it true that the human race really could make the earth completely unlivable by accident?  Well, we&#039;ll &lt;i&gt;never&lt;/i&gt; have compelling evidence that it is &lt;i&gt;impossible&lt;/i&gt;.  We can only have evidence that it is possible...and that evidence will come in the form of the one observation we have in this data set: the actual earth.

The conservative requirement of constantly ratcheting up the requirements for what counts as &quot;compelling&quot; evidence on the world-wide level that global warming is having real effects is disingenous for this fundemental reason.</description>
