- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -6/+47Sad that it requires a COURT ORDER to force the President to tell us the facts about global warming. He'll probably distort them, too.
- Gir9000, on 10/10/2007, -8/+25Global warming is not in question anymore, its more about passing legislation to cut down the carbon emissions. We all need to do our part... including George and his oil buddies!
- PATSCRU, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17Well since we're being overrun anyways, would it hurt the fascists to get some nice uniforms?
- FRANKeB, on 10/10/2007, -7/+16A court order... or what? Impeach him? Arrest him? Censure him? Ha! And you thought fascism needed goose-stepping soldiers and uniforms designed by Hugo Boss? Welcome to the new breed of Fascism.
- Tyrsson, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9No. It's the law that requires the White House to release these studies. The federal judge is simply reminding the White House of its obligations. Unfortunately, this administration has proven time and again that it feels it is above every law of the land.
- Homerr, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10Excerpt from Bush's upcoming press conference when this report is released: "Ya see, it's called global warming. Some people don't know about that - global warming. See that's when the globe gets warm - what I'm saying is that it's too hot to touch. hehehehe "
/jonstewart - swrostmore, on 10/10/2007, -11/+18Global warming??? Get ready for the conservative freakout in 5...4..3..
- thrallie, on 10/10/2007, -5/+12do I give a flying ***** what the government tells me about it? No. I listen to scientists in the private sector. Why is everyone after public funding anyway..let the universities fund it.
The government sucks at science and almost everything else. - guyzero, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7from TFA: "U.S. District Court Judge Saundra Armstrong ruled Tuesday that the Bush administration had violated a 1990 law when it failed to meet deadlines for an updated U.S. climate change research plan and impact assessment." ... courSt do have authority
- siszam, on 10/10/2007, -3/+9No one said that forcing Bush to release this material is fascist. They said that our government and Bush is fascist.
- tankdilla, on 10/10/2007, -3/+8Yeah, the White House has shown they will do whatever they want, regardless of what anybody says. Bush and his crew wipe their asses with court orders.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Yeah, it pays for your professors base salaries, infrastructure, overhead, etc. It does not pay for university research. University research is generally funded from the NSF, the DOE, other government agencies and private industry.
- kuzotz, on 10/10/2007, -4/+8it failed to influence us because being an activist is no longer the thing to be. IT is lame. fighting the machine? lame.
GEtting rich and sucking dick while doing so is the new fad for the youth generation. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Who do you think funds the universities?
- WasabiBomb, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5"If mindless patriotism is the first step to fascism, what is mindless criticism?"
Democracy, pretty much. This nation is founded upon the idea of everyone having a voice in their government, even idiots. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Seems to me the main expertise of conservatives is picking up men in restrooms.
- atheinostic, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4http://www.gcrio.org/gcact1990.html
http://i16.tinypic.com/4ms1kcz.gif - swrostmore, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Captain planet has 'big guns' too...he's ripped..
- atheinostic, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Yes, those god damn scientist hacks are always inventing stuff like 'global warming' and 'evolution' - made up from nothing but mountains of evidence and mere decades of careful, peer-reviewed research - as partisan stunts just so people will vote for whomever supports their 'rationalist' agenda. Scientists have a well-known bias towards reality, something clearly out of place in U.S. policy debates.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4so, all that means is that both of you are loony. and I retract my fry offer.
- zephc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3This administration is about as transparent as a mile-thick block of lead.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Would you like fries with your paranoia?
- gazwilwah, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4And don't forget to pay all those extra taxes!
- CDoug03, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5You want the truth? You can't handle the truth.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I think you should stop spamming you're stupid website. Reported.
- Brianguy2000, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5Those reports are a threat to national security. Executive Privilege.
- nixfu, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5Prediction future rawstory headline seen here on Digg:
"BUSH WHITEHOUSE WONT LET SCIENTISTS PREPARE REPORT THEMSELVES!! IT MUST BE FAKE!!" - Tyrsson, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2How 'bout you read the article. It's in there!
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2haha, you'd be a good political cartoonist
- bjs3171, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3they're saying that when Bush refuses to hand over the requested report, and nothing happens to him because of this magical "executive priveledge", THAT'S fascism. the fact that the court ordered him to hand them over, that's DEMOCRACY. or atleast an attempt at it.
- TheDigerati, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2/Sarcasm = Joke
Please try to keep up with the internetz codes before entering my cylindric tubes with your square package. Opps - WasabiBomb, on 10/10/2007, -4/+6That's been debunked (as have just about all the other anti-AGW arguments). Mars is not, in fact, heating up. Please, try to keep up on the facts before you look like an idiot.
Oops, too late. - spyd3rweb, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3The report will say "Its the sun thats causing the warming, and carbon dioxide has nothing to do with it, because CO2 levels follow the rise in temperatures"
- e68895f, on 10/10/2007, -5/+6This judge has balls the size of ozone holes.
- BlacklabelSAR, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1It's the LIES that I can't handle. That's what your phrase really means....
- mithrasinvictus, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Fool me once, shame on ... shame on you. Fool me ... you can't get fooled again.
- Godlike, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3God damn you gazilwah. When you read about some idiot getting arrested for doing that, well, that'd be me.
- bjs3171, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1seriously? can't they, like, throw him in jail?
- Godlike, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1You know, I don't know about your weird conspiracy stuff but that sortof does bring up a really good point about 'rebuilding' efforts after war's. We are sortof indoctrinating the whole planet...
- CosmicJustice, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1"weird conspiracy"? Read the Kyoto treaty then get back to me.
- Godlike, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The depleted uranium and lead are toxic to the environment, not to mention that a vast sea of desert is covered by mines now...
- Godlike, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Maybe some people don't like free speech because they aren't good at using it to begin with.
- alesis1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Why should the president care what a judge says, what are they going to do? Congress won't impeach and the judicial branch has no way to penalize him. It's middle finger time, yet again.
- hiphoc, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3Digg me up if you think the Decider in Thief will call "Executive Privilege"
- maz2331, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Because it works great punching through armor and obsticles. Plus... you're shooting at someone, who cares if the bullet's toxic too?
- Babykitkat, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Need to Ask them why they keep using DU in Iraq
- hittnrun, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Yeah, "the earth's got a fever".
.algore, lol
freaking moonbats are everywhere. - kuzotz, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2yea.. I might have to join their side in order to not get screwed over. Some nice uniforms would pwn all.
- lokee73, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1I'm sure they will get right on that one...
- thcobbs, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2Care to cite the law?
