It took me 1 paragraph to realize the guy writing that article was full of shit when he tried to use a study about sea ice as proof the ice caps aren't melting. It then took another 2 mins to look up his credentials and find out he is just a talking head for a right wing GW denial group. All of this info was found with in a few clicks with very little effort..
Yet guys like Baddog wont take 2 mins to understand the truth, because he is telling them exactly what he wants to hear.

You know what I read when I saw the title "Updated NASA Data: Global Warming Not Causing Any Polar Ice Retreat - Forbes" ?
Click bait.
I'm starting to realize that a some news (and all "news") organizations now care less about what they report, but how they report it. If they get you to click, get you to comment, get you to tweet or retweet, they are happy, regardless of the damage they cause.

That's so weird that you say that because I have exactly, exactly, the opposite position as you do.
From my point of view, I see republicans refute all alarmists, and republicans always seem to have the same song and dance. "Facts don't count because so and so said it", etc.
Please don't get me wrong - I'm not picking on you for this. I believe that you believe what you believe. I'm just fascinated by what seems to be a true polar opposite here.
I really hope you come to Qwebec Expo this summer because I really want to have a beer with you. We need to talk politics and green energy and guns and all that stuff. No fighting, no dismissing the other person - just fun talk. Maybe we can invite Rochard and Crockette and Sarahteh too.
What a conversation that would be, geezuz...!
;)
