last year and he can't hedge because his suppliers fully expect it to

on his herd because even though beef prices are rising, he can't
afford the same size herd because he can't feed them economically.


Maybe he should feed them grain instead.

Ethanol hasn't anything to do with global warming. The business of
farm subsidies is what pushes corn and ethanol. It's a boondogle,
creating ethanol is a net loss when considering what it takes to
produce a gallon of fuel.

Speaking of which, growing cows is stupid too. Costs to produce a
pound of beef are enormous in comparison to most other foods, not to
mention that it's sucking up the US aquifer, poisoning crops and
people through uncontrolled runoff, etc.

Can't blame it all on Gore, but I'm sure you'd like to.

all of all ends? After all, everything Canadian you instantly **** on

the great white north, and it's the greatest piece ever written!
Pretty selective, don't you think?

Every day 30,000 people on this planet die of the diseases of poverty
A third of the planet doesn't have electricity.
A billion people have no clean water.
A half a billion people going to bed hungry every night.

Since almost every action called for by the global warming alarmists will
make life even worse for all these people, why do assholes like you care
more about what *may happen* a 100 years in the future instead of paying
attention to what's going on now?


Your childish and low-life name calling shows that you aren't bright
enough to understand an intelligent response, or you're too narrow
minded.



Sally, you sound *exactly* like Kevin/Walter/Basskisser. Coincidence?

There is evidence as well as scientific opinion on both sides of the
human-influence factor. Neither your side or the other should trot out
a single study and say "see, that settles it." (Not that you are).
It's amazing the number of people who not only deny that many could
ever have any influence on his global environment, but also insist
that the climate is *not* changing at all...........
It's amazing the number of people who preach that man is solely responsible
for global warming and that many billions of dollars in the right pockets
will stop it.
*That's* what's amazing!

I knew that. That's a lot of methane you're storing.

Better keep it away from open flame or your head could do what you're

Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing that either. I'd like to see if
America is ready to have (what it perceives as) a black man in the
white house.

Wonder if he'd have the balls to do something about campaign finance
reform and getting the lobbyists the hell out of washington (during
the time he's repairing our sullied world image and setting us on a
better course).
