Aw...

[timfogarty]

too bad it will all be under water in 20-40 years

[Stark]

But some are holding out, saying there are things more important than money.

Yeah whats more important than a Trailorpark 

[anvil]

Yeah whats more important than a Trailorpark 

If they leave, it'll be harder to throw beer cans at the neighbor's kids.

[Mr. Intenseone]

too bad it will all be under water in 20-40 years

Is this according to "AlGore"?

[MisterMagoo]

Is this according to "AlGore"?

well, no. you're confusing the messenger with the originator. see, unlike rush, gore doesn't just make shit up. his statements actually have "sources". gore consults scientific studies, rush uses his ass for a bibliography. i can understand, though, how you would get confused. if i idolized a guy like rush i would probably think everyone else just says whatever the hell they like too.

[sandycoosworth]

zircollio ... now that is fucking funny george!

this is what a 20 foot rise in sea level will do to Florida.   If the Greenland ice sheet alone were to melt, that would be 23 feet.

That will help illegal immigration.........much further to swim from cuba.

"You just can't buy a way of life," said Tom Byrne, a 68-year-old retired sales executive from New York who doesn't want to sell even though he would make a little over $1 million on the trailer and site he bought two years ago for $150,000. "This is my home."

 

personally, they's crazy [sic].

But I've lived in one and my family owns and rents mobile homes/properties in S. Florida in a few areas.  Some of the people living in a 25k singlewide are millionaires who just like the simplicity of it.  They have security, neighbors like them (frugal old folks who garden, gossip, and bitch about anyone under 40 and over 5).  of course Florida has the yee-haw hillbilly types who shoot guns to celebrate every UFC smackdown.  But many of them are quiet old people who like living near other quiet old people.  

When money isn't an issue (if you already have a million in the bank and you're fighing LT illness), being around your friends becomes all that matters.  Plus, some old people just like to fight anything.

We'll all be illegally immigrating to mexico to get jobs by then

BY 2012 YOU BETTER BE LIVING SOMEWHERE ABOVE SEA LEVEL !

my prediction.... this year the fed will lower rates to save the dollar, which will cripple the real estate market.  couple that with the fact the white house will probably reveal global warming is a serious problem and coastal real estate in the US is gonna be a sucker's buy

Agreed.  I can see the economic structure imploding in on itself soon.

[Mr. Intenseone]

well, no. you're confusing the messenger with the originator. see, unlike rush, gore doesn't just make shit up.

Hhahahahahahahahaha..... ..............according to Gore, we're all going to die in 10 years!!


RUSH: Try this one from yesterday's stack. I don't know if you people know this or not, but Al Gore has been out at the Sundance Film Festival out there in Park City, Utah. This is one of Robert Redford's big do's, and apparently Al Gore is working on a movie that -- what is the name of this movie? Oh, that's right, "An Inconvenient Truth," and the movie will document his efforts to raise alarm on the effects of global warming, and so he brought Tipper and the kids out there.

He's attending parties and posing for pictures with his fans. He's enjoying macaroni and cheese at the Discovery Channel's soirée. He's palling around with Laurie David of Curb Your Enthusiasm, who is the husband of Larry David, who drives the Prius and then flies the GV. Larry David says, "You know, Al is a funny guy, but he's also a very serious guy who believes humans may have only 10 years left to save the planet from turning into a total frying pan." Now, the last time I heard some liberal talk about "ten years" it was 1988, Ted Danson. We had ten years to save the oceans; we were all going to pay the consequences, which would result in our death. Now Al Gore says we've got ten years. Ten years left to save the planet from a scorching. Okay, we're going to start counting. This is January 27th, 2006. We will begin the count, ladies and gentlemen. This is just... You have to love these people -- from afar, and from a purely observational point of view.

I hear RUSH saying it.  Can you point us at a quote where GORE says it?

Rush admitted to "carrying the water for the republicans" for several years, promoting policy he didn't personally agree with out of loyalty for the party, didn't he?  (This would make him quite the untrustworthy source for information about a Democratic leader).

Can you source the Gore quote that says "Al Gore says we've got ten years"?

[Mr. Intenseone]

LMAO...I missed this post..Hahahahahahahahaha hahah!!

So where are the scientific facts like Gore provides in his video? This just sounds like some delusional, conservative, drug hoarding, pig shouting off his mouth Nothing like a credible junkie!

Serious question I-One,

Where is Al Gore saying that we have TEN years left?

[timfogarty]

Where is Al Gore saying that we have TEN years left?

Al Gore is not.  But NASA scientist Jim Hansen is.  For example http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/03/17/60minutes/main1415985.shtml


"We have to, in the next 10 years, get off this exponential curve and begin to decrease the rate of growth of CO2 emissions," Hansen explains. "And then flatten it out. And before we get to the middle of the century, we’ve got to be on a declining curve.

"If that doesn't happen in 10 years, then I don’t think we can keep global warming under one degree Celsius and that means we’re going to, that there’s a great danger of passing some of these tipping points. If the ice sheets begin to disintegrate, what can you do about it? You can’t tie a rope around the ice sheet. You can’t build a wall around the ice sheets. It will be a situation that is out of our control."

He isn't saying we have TEN years left either.

He may say we have ten years left to do something, but Intenseone claims Gore says we are all going to die IN TEN YEARS.

This is something I somewhat agree with. We really only have a short period of time before things get to the point where it can't be fixed, development is too rapid and the environment can't adjust to it in such short periods of time. I say because of the fact that so many are ignorant to the truth of what can/will/could happen it is already too late and things will never be changed in time to fix anything, we are all screwed.
