Is Global Warming the most misunderstood topic in politics?

The amount of ignorance here is astounding. No scientific body of national or international standing disagrees that: - The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing - This is primarily due to human factors - This is causing the earth to warm People talking about "the natural cycle of...

Rick Perry channelling Ron Paul

- The job of the Fed is to control the money supply. Expansionary monetary policy is commonly used during recessions to stimulate aggregate demand. In effect, Perry is telling the Federal Reserve not to do anything about the recession we're currently facing. - The Federal Reserve does not "play...

The Democrat downgrade...

Several things: Any reasonable individual can see that the debt downgrade, while bad for investor confidence, is not the sole reason for the weak economy. Sovereign debt in Europe, weak US economic recovery, the Japanese earthquake, and a weak housing market are all contributing to the...

We bailed out wall street now they cut us off?

You do realize how hard it is for a party to pass legislation when they are the minority in Congress and don't control the executive branch, don't you? Literally the exact same things were said about the Democrats while they were the minority and Bush was president (obstructionist, the party of...

War in downtown Toronto....

You really don't know a whole lot about how the G20 operates, do you? Meetings like this one are used to organize new trade agreements and reduce/eliminate tariffs, not regulate banks (which is by and large a domestic issue handled separately by each member of the G20). The majority of...

Why do Americans not care about Soccer?

The only bigots are the leaders of the countries surrounding Israel who pass laws marginalizing Jews in public life and make statements denying the Holocaust, or stating that Israel should be wiped off the map. Israel's only requirements for peace talks with Hamas were that: 1.) Hamas...

israeli navy fires on Gaza aid flotilla

The "article" you're quoting is an editorial by a woman named Ghada Karmi, a well-known Palestinian activist. She has an active interest in denigrating Israel. In addition, the vast majority of the deaths mentioned in the article are a result of retaliatory strikes by the IDF in response to...
