Unfortunately the country will suffer for at least another 15 months, as even if there is a change in November 2022 it will not be effective until January 2023. But, the country is getting what a majority of our citizens voted for. Let's hope in 2022 and 2024 the choices being given to the people are better than what they were in 2020. We need servant leaders and not narcissists or I, I, I, me, me, me pomposity. Let's pray that the country can make it to then, and that no adversary takes advantage of the feckless leadership we currently have. Any leadership that can celebrate pronoun day while the country is going to hell in a handbag, is not really leadership. Sorry time for the US. Charles de Andrade

There are many unwise things they are doing...yet...Dems will still vote for them.

It appears that Kern has sKedadled. Scroll down and see if any of you other Climate Change deniers want to take me on.

Yes, you are a tough guy with nothing else to do, you should be proud.

What was the topic of this post?

John Brewer, I don't think you read very well. You are screwed already.

Obama's quote about Biden's ability to "'f' things up" should have actually been his ability to 'f' everything up.

If he was intentionally trying to screw this country up, he couldn't be doing any more damage than he already is.

Sadly, it is just as often in the nature of the Republicans to be unable to capitalize on the lack of wisdom shown by the Dems.

Here's what the republicans are missing. Swing voters, the people that decide elections, in general won't remember any of this past the next election and republicans don't have the testicular fortitude and or media platform to remind those swing voters that this is the D agenda and it's costing taxpayers a lot of money.

It's like the former gov of Louisiana, Edwin Edwards said, "The only way I can lose is if they find me in bed with a dead girl or a live boy." Sad thing is, I'm not sure if that would even hurt them now.

Do you honestly think we will survive and not be fundamentally transformed. I pray that we will, but it seem more unlikely every day. Yes the democrats and media shouldn't do a lot of things, but there is nothing stopping them.

It is equally unwise for the GOP to continue to deny Climate Change.

So it would be wise for the GOP to embrace climate change then? I noticed that you capitalized "Climate Change" so what you really mean is that the GOP should embrace the Left's solution to a changing climate. Yes, this would take this issue off the table but so would the GOPs embracing of "Pro Choice" or "Critical Race Theory". Hell, while we're at it lets embrace the Left's version of everything. The country could then "come together" and we can all quickly perish but at least we'd do so being "strifeless" - perhaps all singing Kumbaya while holding hands in a great circle with Don Lemon and Donald Trump hugging in the middle with tears of joy streaming down their cheeks.

I agree. Many of us, however, don't deny it -- we're just not convinced it's all man-made.

Thank you Julie. That's a convenient objection that is equivalent to denial.

I proudly deny climate change.

Ha, with no picture and no last name. I see how proud you are.

It is also an objection a lot of climate scientists who have great knowledge of the subject and have examined the data would say: "Since the end of the Little Ice Age about 1850 the climate has warmed. The greatest period of warming was in the 1930s. By the mid 1970's the warming had stopped and there was enough concern about cooling that Time Magazine asked on its cover 'Are We Entering a New Ice Age?' The warming started again about 1980 and continued for the next 25 years but we have not seen much warming since about 2005. So, while the earth has warmed we can't be certain if it is all natural or whether mankind has contributed to it". Anything beyond this, my friend, is politics not science.

Kern I'm happy you decided to engage in an intelligent manner rather than your needlessly inflammatory initial comment. I'm aware you deniers can trot out "a lot" of climate scientist to object. However, over 90% agree it is an existential issue and it is caused by mankind. https://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/

Go complain to the great polluters in China.

Oh is China the leader of the free world now in your view? The US is a country of followers? You have surrendered?

Sorry, Dude, consensus is not they way we scientists get to truth. Sixty years ago I took a geology course as an undergraduate. I asked the prof if there was anything to this theory of "continental drift". His reply? Yea, it was first proposed fifty years ago but you won't find a real geologist who supports it today. That would be 100% consensus, by the way. Less than five years later plate tectonics was the accepted and proven explanation of not only "continental drift" but of volcanoes, earthquakes, oceanic trenches, etc.

Seems like you would rather 'drift' away from the CLIMATE CHANGE conversation.

Ok I got it. You won't believe NASA. You won't believe NOAA. You won't believe the American Meteorological Society. You won't believe the US National Academy of Sciences. You won't believe the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. You sure as hell won't believe studies from academic institutions. You won't even believe your own two eyes because I'm sure you've seen the floods, the droughts, the heat waves, and the wild fires. You'd rather settle on a nice convenient denial. Am I right?

"... it is often in the nature of the Democrats to treat the people as if they can be replaced by another." Hmm, kinda like chattel slavery.

It is astounding to me how tone deaf and historically ignorant politicians can be, in this case Democrats. Whenever it is in play pocketbook elections always wipe out the party in power. By now everyone is noticing the pain of rising prices. It is putting to the test the fantasy of existential crisis level climate change being foisted by those at the commanding heights of our national institutions so they could panic us, the lunkhead voters, into passing their agenda items. It doesn't matter what the desire is, greed is a powerfully blinding force in human history. And here we go again.

Vaguely resembles a certain Dem operative in past, "it's the economy, stupid".
