Completely inaccurate statement.

Gore addresses it, ...and summarily dispatches it. It was done so quickly you might have missed it. We all know how you have a tendency to read selectively, ...why should you be any different when listening or watching? Gore was able to dismiss it so quickly because the 'evidence' was so flimsy to begin with.

The evidence against Global Warming is 'flimsy', as you put it?  Why then, do hundreds of climatologists contradict what you've just said?  Interesting that you'd seek to dismiss debate on such an important topic.

ps - Aren't you a little overdue for your stint in the cage... or have you forfitted the cage match with Debussey?

Debussey has requested a postponment, which I've accepted.  They'll be posted as soon as available.

In the mean time, would you like to challenge me on Global Warming in that very arena?

I thought I had already made it clear to you... you are not worth the time or effort.

Oh yes, ExxonMobil finances every climatologist worldwide that dares dissent from the Global Warming scare campaign.  You, of course, are unable to use facts to show why they're wrong, but I guess it's far easier to simply pull the oil card.

And just so you're aware, the financial incentives for scare-mongers aren’t bad either.  Just ask Al Gore.

Your propensity to post frequently regarding my good self belies this statement.

Uh huh, can you point out anything I've said that's inaccurate, as you're painting a picture of someone that often indulges in inaccuracies?  Or are you simply upset I've shown you up more than once in reasoned debate?

can you read past your stuck up nose BRUCE?  lol

Tunnel vision is a beautiful thing. It allows you to completely ignore what you don't want to see.




Does BRUCE remind you of "Dean Prichard" from the movie Oldschool?

Yes, I do.

FOUR of the TEN 911 commissioners have said the investigation was very incomplete.

Are they wrong?

Rather than take your magnificently accurate and well-respected word for it, post a link and I'll address it.

Regardless of what anyone thinks of Gore, ...they really should see this documentary.

I'd rather jump off of a 6 story building head first and land on a 20p rusty nail with my eye than to give lying hipocrite a penny of my money............I'd rather run him over with my 14MPG SUV while eating a 2lb piece of filet mignon and having a Polar Bear as a hood orniment while putting the peddle to the medal with my kangaroo covered boots, I'd rather.........well, you get the idea >:(!!

Well if it was boring, then it's not 'entertainment' is it?

No, The message/intent is a political issue... if the subject crosses over it's game for both.  Documentaries aren't usually made for entertainment purposes anyway.  Global warming is an important political issue and any debate or work delving into the debate is ok for this forum.  Say you have a movie like the Robin William's Man of the Year and you want to debate the issues from the movie, what real world political issues were tackled in the movie, what political points then there is no reason you can't post that here, but on the same hand, if one wants to chat up the entertainment angle in Entertainment, then why not?  But talking about the political angle in the entertainment forum is probably not best and vise versa, talking up the entertainment angle in political is probably not the best.  Yea a post might pop up in either place but no biggie there, but if the whole thread is dedicated to the entertainment angle, it doesn't belong in political and I will move it as I have done with threads that don't belong here.  I have no problem moving threads that don't belong and every intention of keeping this forum focused on political issues.

Here's another example Bigger B...

Here's a thread on Rage against the Machine in Entertainment right where it should be.
http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=132704.0

Now if I started a thread on the political relevance of one of their songs or several of their songs or band activism, I could easily post it in political.  I wouldn't expect people to start talking about what great musicians they are, but there's all the room in the world to bring up the political points the group makes with their songs and/or activism...

But to be sure, I do not want politically unrelated materials posted in political.  I will move them and if pointed out I will move ones I missed.  It will degrade the forum having non-political issues in political and I don't want that.

Er, no.  You see, I post evidence in every thread I start and the appropriate links.  If there's anything at all incorrect or inaccurate, tell me what.  Otherwise, try not to take this angle of whining about how I never admit I'm wrong.  Show me I am, if I'm such a fool, it shouldn't be a problem.

Is there any one point I've made you can disprove?  Just one?
