Is there oil infrastructure in the hurricane ravaged area? Yes. Does W. have ties to oil companies? Unabashedly yes.
But geez man, lets let the dead be found and the misery subside before we go politicizing this tragedy.
And that goes for Conservatives who have probably done the same thing. Now is the time to be American, dare say HUMAN and not Democrat or Republican.
RFK, Jr. is a :wally .
While you appear to be misunderstanding or misrepresenting RFK Jr’s argument (which actually tries to link Barbour’s opposition of the Kyoto treaty to global warming to the increase in destructive hurricanes), his actual argument is only slightly less dubious than what you have presented here.
I’m no fan of his since reading of his support for the position that immunizations, or thymerasol in particular, is causal in the onset of autism. He does thus seem given to dubious arguments based on tenuous connections.
This is the closing line from his article:
However you interpret it, and I understand that he is really trying to skewer Barbour’s oposition to Kyoto, he is trying to make political hay while people are stranded in need of food and water, and are suffering without needed medications. I find that vile.
If Barbour supported the Kyoto Treaty we would’ve never seen Hurricane Katrina? Man, just when you thought the Kennedys couldn’t possibly get any dumber…
RFK Jr. is a [thread=326619]loon[/thread]
I also take issue with him calling Pat Robertson an “Republican icon”.
I would call him a media icon.
Indeed. It’s a good thing Eric the Red’s homeboys all drove Hummers, thereby warming the globe to the point where Greenland could support his colony… :rolleyes:
That’s… I… Yes, well… um.
Er, that is to say, excellent point, well articulated! Thanks Steve MB!
Wha?
Agreed. His anti-vax articles make it nearly impossible to take him seriously when he opens his mouth about anything else.
Yeah, the VAX I used in college was a perfectly servicable mainframe, for its time. Woo, compiled FORTRAN like motherfuck!
I’m going to have to ask my engineer computer geek husband what those terms mean.
It can’t be said any more simpler than that.
And since Robbie :wally is in a dart throwing mood, I would like to hear some more of his misguided politicking by denouncing all presidents and governors of the states from this list of past hurricanes. It will really be a help to his cause…really. :rolleyes:
Depends on whose ox is Gored, I bet. I think striking while the iron is hot is what many would call it if Pubbies did the same thing.
They’re just playing catch-up with Hentor
I can’t stand to read the crap, but I’ll take a wild guess that he doesn’t find any fault with Uncle Ted and the rest for voting against it.
:rolleyes:
