Well, it's not really cooling is it?

When you read the article it's only .14 degrees celcius cooler and certainly no indication of a trend towards lower temps.

Nice try though.

Thank the Gods! The Global Warming hoax is finally put to rest by a single year of data. Who'd have thought?

Not only that, but it rained yesterday, and we got almost 3 mm. The drought has broken! :p

I wish Bush's damage would stop at January 20th, but I afraid it will linger for a very long time.

Those movies are so funny. Probably my favourite animated films besides The Lion King series.

If by damage you mean the democratization and the necessary liberalization of Middle Eastern nations, roll on damage, far and fast and forever! One of these days, Bruce, you're going to wake up and realize you would not live, nor even likely survive, the kind of social order our foes within Islam want to promulgate, and have said so.

Trouble is, while good liberals want these people defeated for their undemocratic ways, their fascist ideals, their insistence that virtue in societies ended about 700 AD, and their abuse of all womankind along with a general absence of civil rights, all owing to a determined effort to graft Throne to Altar and Altar to Throne -- the liberals in the Cellar mostly aren't any good at all. If they were good, classical liberals, they'd sound much more like me than they do, and they'd quit bitching at me for showing them good -- and how different good is from what they're doing right now. Our foes are undemocratic shits and rabid dogs, and therefore must die and become extinct. The people disputing this point with me are fascist sympathizers without faith in the goodness of democracy because their education has been completely inadequate, and their thought crippled or else made totalitarian, not liberal at all. In any case, our foes, if given the chance, would capture and behead the whole bunch. They've explicitly said as much.

Bush won't get much credit immediately, but there are those serious thinkers noting that he may end up being the Truman for the GWOT: he fought the early part of the fight, and set up the conditions and set the movements in motion to produce the eventual win of the civilized over the undemocratic. No thanks whatsoever to the people here who object to our actually fighting the war. None -- thanks for bupkis, you dopes.
