RFK Jr rants...

Since few people actually watched the Live Earth concerts this rant was missed by many:

And so I am going to tell you this, that the next time you see John Stossel or Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity --- these Flat Earthers, these corporate toadies, lying to you, lying to the American public, and telling you that global warming doesn't exist --- you send an email to their advertisers and tell them that you are not going to buy their products anymore.


Flat Earthers? Hmmm. Who does that sound like? Whether you agree with him or not, don't these "greens" realize that they sound like crackpots when they use this kind of rhetoric?

Not allowed to disagree with them I guess.

I honestly have no idea where you are going with this, and I have a feeling I don't want to. I'm just saying what I percieve to be the truth.

I am not really that interested in the WHYs of these people, whio I think of as insane. I don't think it is germane to this discussion. Do you think they have legitimate reasons to be anti-American?

bye bye.

Don't question The Force. You'll be in big trouble if guilty of scepticism.

Things are going along swimmingly outside the net (in my neck of the woods by the Bay Of Fundy) where the Right Whale has the right of way.

a charming launch point to the vineyard and nantucket. I met a man from nantucket but I digress. I always observe the code of ethics as recommended in your link.

I see the ancient mariner still fears his albatross.
