fides' Jack Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) "Let me google that for you" has been around for a long time, and it's typically used as disrespectful sarcasm. However, there's a specific pages built for it to make it even more obnoxious. Just pasting the search result page doesn't quite cut the same way.

CrossCuT Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 What I am trying to get across is that an intelligent person could find this stuff on their own. You dont need me to spoon feed it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrossCuT Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 An intelligent person is able to offer evidence in support of her assertions. And intelligent person also gets irritated when she has to continually explain things over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socrates Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 What I am trying to get across is that an intelligent person could find this stuff on their own. You dont need me to spoon feed it to you. I thought intelligent persons could construct arguments, rather than google-barf irrelevant searches. Our already bankrupt federal government currently pours many billions of tax-payer dollars (over $24 bill. in 2011, and I believe that number's actually gone up since then), into energy subsidies, most of it to renewable "green" energy. (Including billions to prop up now-bankrupt Solyndra, and the infamously wasteful ethanol subsidies.) Down here in Texas, the government actually pays people to put up windmills on their land (which are everywhere). http://money.cnn.com/2012/03/07/news/economy/energy-subsidies/ For the record, I'm against this "crony capitalism" or "corporate welfare" by which government rewards favored corporations at the expense of others, whether the recipients are traditional "big oil" companies, or "green energy" companies, or whatever. But in any case, the assertion that "Big Oil" (that scarily nebulous favorite boogey-man of the Left) is somehow preventing people from using "green" alternative energy sources is nonsensical.

CrossCuT Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Hey PMers, here is an easy $10k for you. A physicist is offering $10k to anyone who can disprove Climate change. I figured you all could share the pot or something. http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2014/06/23/3451810/physicist-offers-climate-denier-reward/ Edited June 24, 2014 by CrossCuT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
