"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
This is
what I'm talking about. The left will simply not let go of a

we're doomed." But the good news is, school
districts, even whole countries have banned Al Gore's film An Inconvenient Truth from being
shown to students. The people behind selling AGW
tried to change from Global Warming
to Communities
for Change - Whoops,
I mean Climate Change,

Kinda like the Jehovah's Witnesses backing off of specific dates for the end of the world, and going with Real Soon Now.
