  • Has America Lost the Ability to Debate Civily?

    The Democrat Machine has been creating wedge issues for decades.

    The creation of special interest groups and demanding they be given special protections are just one of the ways they created division. Now the hate anything that does not agree with the far left has become a major obstacle to rational debate.

    The indictments of the Southern Poverty Law Center didn't just infiltrate hate groups they paid these groups to create the narrative the Democrats demanded according to House Judiciary testimony. The democrats made up a narrative to push their control agenda. They created the problems so they could be seen as a savior. A psychological operation and a false flag operation to further the democrat hate machine.

    Are we so far gone as a nation, that we are incapable of rational, constructive, cognitive discussions? When I look at various debate forums, very few actually have cognitive debate. They are hate sites where name calling and throwing fireballs is the day's activities. I wonder how many of the people on forums are being paid to stop discussions, to spew hate.

    When I agreed to help with this forum, we thought we could make a safe place for rational, calm, reasoned, discussion and thought. Have we have gone beyond the ability to be rational and have meaningful conversations about our differences or is this just one more made-up distraction that so many useful idiots will follow the hatred that has been pushed by the democrat machine?

    The Democrat machine has created so many wedges, is it now impossible to bridge the gaps these wedges have created? That is intentional because their intention was to destroy the United States as founded, where our differences could be discussed reasonably and still remain friends as well as countryman.

    Are we so gone that saving this Republic, Benjamin Franklin asked us, "if you can keep it", is now on the brink of collapse?

    We must stand as patriots and defy those who wish to destroy our Republic...

      I drove to ABQ today to take my wife to the retina clinic. My far-left stepson came along to help. We had agreed several years ago NEVER to discuss politics. He asked about the school board in our upcoming elections as he knew nothing. I told him my picks. He added, OK are they against that transgender crap in the schools. He was glad they were. He then mentioned that he was going to vote for one Republican for the first time in his life. I was shocked when it was our NM state Senator, Rebecca Dow. She is the only politician in my entire life who knocked on my door and asked for my vote. We discusses state, national and world issues for 15 minutes. He talked to Rebecca at one of her townhall meetings and liked what he heard.

      We never talked about Trump but discusses Gaza, Iran and the Ukraine wars and agreed on all of them.

      He's still a left winger but there's hope.

      I hope that I am wrong but I fear that our youth, for two generations, have been inculcated with the far left rot of identity politics and Socialism/ Marxism/Communism by the teachers and professors and the far left Democratic loons, beyond much hope of changing their collective minds.

      I sincerely hope I am wrong but I believe we are soon to see a blue wave of Biblical proportions.

      I'm afraid of the blue wave too. One encouraging point is that the youth vote has historically low turnout rates, especially in non-presidential years. Redistricting might save us but if the war is still going in November we're toast.

  • The Log Function and why it is important to CO2 as a trace gas.

    The Log Function and why it is important to CO2 as a trace gas.

    Let’s explain the log function. In our atmosphere it is simply stated as what is expected, by empirically observed evidence in the laboratory by concentration.

    Think of this as a wine glass. The neck is long and fills very fast. Then as the glass widens the expected rise slows until the glass ultimately overflows and has no further effect. The rate of filling is meaningless.

    Why are we villainizing Fossil Fuels?

    Let's go back to my old stomping grounds in Utah, back in the late 1970's and early 1980's to a place called Dugway Proving Grounds and Tooele Army Depot South Area. Also known as the Chemical Munitions Disposal Site. The US army was actively meeting our Verzi Treaty obligations and destroying all of the US chemical munitions stockpiles. The Science was new and chemical engineers were building scrubbers that would allow...

  • 250 Years - America as Founded
    by Billy_Bob
    So much is missing from our state run education system that most of our youth have no idea how or why America was founded.

    Trump is bringing this to the forefront once again this summer. Many people will get a master class in how our Representative Republic was formed. How religious persecution and taxation without representation fueled our path. How Jamestown and the Mayflower Compact, a socialist construct, failed and what was done to allow those settlers to succeed. How private property...
