Another extreme break from the norm!

by Justin June 29, 2008

Since you guys seemed to like the xtreme biking nature video, I thought I’d share this one of a glider/skier thing (which I’d never heard of until now) going down a mountain… It’s wild:

The Bush/McCain challenge

by Justin June 28, 2008

I’m posting a lot lately. Guess I’m getting excited for the upcoming day when Bush is no longer our president. Here is another reason why McCain won’t replace him:

Newsmax again. This time about Gore.

by Justin June 28, 2008

I’ve heard the right wing attack Al Gore as a hypocrite because of his big, energy guzzling house since “An Inconvenient Truth” came out, and have to admit I was a little nonplussed that he used so much energy.

Global Warming skeptics need to shut the F*** up!

Somehow the neo-conservatives who started this war believe that we [...]

moral absolutism and epistemological relativism

by Justin June 2, 2008

I found myself taken by this analysis of Republicans on Grist.
I think it makes many true points about the nature of “conservatism” and why many conservatives use that belief structure to discount the idea of global climate change. It has that darn word “change” in it, just like Obama’s campaign.
Let’s hope we have [...]
