My hot tub is getting warmer

You noticed I've been working out, huh! ;D
I agree with Brewman about Imus being fired by his employer and them being completely within their rights to do so. I've listened to him a few times and found him to be a reprehensible, smarmy jackass....so I excercised my right to change the channel.
The only reason he was fired is because certain entities made a big enough commotion to cause his sponsors to pull out. When MSNBC and CBS lost that revenue, then they sent him packing. Follow the money...always!

Imnus was fired because he was "public" enough to be noticed. I have to say to say this is another BS move (Firing Imnus) when we buy rap records in droves that talk about far worse things. No, I'm not advocating Imnus's remarks, I am simply saying he's a scapegoat in the face of a lot worse public behavior that is sanctioned on a daily basis.
I also want to say this about the Global Warming hoax. Yes, it is a hoax as it has become an industry flooded with money. Thats right, global warming has become an industry. Watch the movie folks. Incidentally, I have never said that those that believe in global warming are "trolls". I believe I said they have simply been mislead. Man kind is a mere spec on this earth. The idea that we could influence our climate by releasing C02 is absurd. Please folks, watch the movie.
Thanks Bill for letting this live! I'm going out to my newly cleaned and fresh water tub tonight and have a cold one.

Apparently, I'm in the minority here in realizing that global warming is a reality. Unlike a lot of social issues, where reading the "other side" makes me angry and gets me worked up to write back a huge reply, global warming doesn't do that to me. That's because the so-called "debate" is over. The reason for this is that ALL THE SCIENTISTS IN THE WORLD know it's true, and have ended the argument. Those who think global warming isn't real can join those who yell and scream that the moon landing is a hoax, and spend their time with the people chasing down the Loch Ness Monster. Go ahead, make some noise and waste your time. It doesn't bother me.
So no, I didn't watch the video. I'm one of those many liberal lemmings who have decide that if ALL THE SCIENTISTS IN THE WORLD think something is true, it's good enough for me.

It's funny you posted this ... as I was going through the posts I was wondering how many of the posters have a scientific background to be able to say that it's a hoax. I saw Al Gore's movie and if the photo's and the video of what was on his movie were real ... it's a scary thing. I do realize that some of it was politicing but it made me think.
Living in NJ, driving to work BY MYSELF, I see hundreds of cars everyday with the same scene as mine ... driving to work by themselves. I own 2 cars and have another company car, my oldest will be getting my car next year. 3 cars for 1 family, wasn't like that in the 60's. All the electricity we need to run our houses, wasn't like that in the 60's. Also, we all have heard for years about the rainforests being removed for housing and farming, Asia is becoming a "new America" - their middle income economy is growing while ours is shrinking ... more money for more goods ... people prosper and have more children ...
I for 1 believe that global warming is a real threat. I am not a scientist but studied engineering for 3 years (unfortunately I am not a degreed engineer). Reading some of the things of what's happening makes sense how the scientists are desribing things. If the top scientists of the world are worried, maybe we should be too. Are they being dramatic, possibly to get people's attention. Remember just a little while ago most people never heard of Tsunamis except on Gilligans Island ... all of a sudden their happening all over the place.
Have your thoughts but I think people much smarter than ourselves are really trying to save the world for a good reason.
