Ted Rall does have a point, here. The freedoms which people died to provide you with simply do not exist, any more. In their place is a two party dictatorship, a sham democracy which all but begs you to keep believing.

I do not believe in voting liberal or conservative. That seems like an excuse for failing to think at all. The two candidates being presented for the next US presidential election are both pretty inadequate, but of the two men, I’d pick BHA over MR. In short, I’ll take weakness over cruelty any day. Anyone who picks the latter deserves exactly what they end up with.
This shows that sea ice has been vanishing at a steady rate. Again, this is your data, which is fortunate for trying to convince you, but what you need to do, if you genuinely want to understand the crisis that we’re facing and not just have an argument, is to look at something other than the internet. The information is out there on the net (your own data shows that), but there’s also a lot of misinformation. There is overwhelming consensus in the scientific community. The planet is warming. The ice caps are shrinking. The end result will be climate change, with all the resulting consequences. It’s not a conspiracy to inconvenience you, your political party of choice, or America. Humanity is in genuine trouble. We’d like your help.
