CO2 is a colorless, odorless gas, as transparent and toxic as your histrionics. Your changing the subject doesn’t address the problem; it only obscures the role of your partisans in letting it fester to this point. We’re not arguing the relative merits of the Russian and American Revolutions, we’re trying to discuss the consequences of the Industrial Revolution.

You can no longer deny climate change, you can’t dispute its origin, and you can’t distract us about its consequences, tactics which you have been using consistently until quite recently. So now you decide to divert us instead by condemning those who follow your own example and refuse to do anything about it.

Methinks your sudden indignation is primarily designed to camouflage your own prior obstruction and sabotage of every effort to study and publicize this issue. What are you going to do next, accuse liberals of “not displaying any leadership”?

What hypocrisy. From what we can see from your posts over the last few years, it’s your side that seems desperately determined to prevent anything from being done about it, or even to admit there is a problem. And you’ve played right into the hands of the Chinese and the Indians, by selling them the rope. Why should they cooperate with us when the Americans show “no consensus on this issue”?

When you admit we have a problem, that it is a non-ideological one, and that we must act quickly to do something about it, THEN you can start talking about who is to blame for it, what they are doing or failing to do.
