CT: Well described and fully acknowledged as what I also know to be true regarding the Center/Left Coalition, who are in full control of the Beaufort County Commission and its staff.

Teaching lids not to be racist bigots is a worthwhile endeavor.Not in place of the 3Rs. Alongside it.

Spending is always the problem in government. Democrats raise spending, as Biden has done. RINOs too often help them do it, like Mitch McConnell. Republicans cut taxes rather than overspending, as our state legislature has done. Those in control of our county commission are a combination of the Bidens and the McConnells, sadly.

You parrot the globalist narrative of the cliamte scare perfectly, Big Government Bob, or should I call it the dogma of the Climate Scientology religiious cult.

CO2 is a very minor greenhouse gas. The most important greenhouse gas is water vapor which accounts for over 90% of the greenhouse effect. Most of the new CO2 released into the atmosphere comes from natural processes, not humans. Water vapor is impacted by solar radiation, not something we have any control over.

If you look back in the Earth's climate history, it is clear the CO2 did not cause any of the past multi-century warm periods in Earth's history. There is no rise in CO2 predecing a warm period. CO2 goes up about a century AFTER a warming trend has started. It is a RESULT of warming, not a cause of it.

If you look backward in Earth's climate history, the global warming due to VOs theory does not fit, not even close, to the actual facts.

The Global Warming / Climate Change dogma is driven by politics, not science, although some useful idiot scientists have figured out it is a path to fame and fortune and go along with it. It was an obscure and discredited theory among scientists until Margeret Thatcher dixocvered it and decided it would be useful in her battles against the Marxist coal miners union and against Arab oil sheiks and put UK government money behind it. Since then, the globalist, particularly at the UN have decided it would be politically useful to them and have been pushing it. At its core it is all about politics, not science.

If you want to hear some prominent scientists rip the global warming / climate change theory to shreds, the British TV documentary "The Great Global Warming Swindle" is great.

Gender is determined based on biological FACT, not "assigned" by whim. These days it is usually determined by biological fact well veofre virth by looking at the ultrasound pictures. If a baby has male sex organs, it is biologically determined to be a male. A doctor does not look at a baby with male genitilia and say, "hmmm, I think I will assign this one as a girl".

Gender is based on fact, not fantasy. These Josef Mengele type doctors who line their pockets by mutilating children are monsters, but you approve what they are doing, Big Government Bob.

I do know the science. Gender is assigned to all babies. As I said, most are easy to tell. But not all. You can call them deformed or anything else but one still has to decide what gender to raise them, boy or girl. Hence a gender is assigned. It kind of sucks, for the baby, but part of the human experience. Why on earth do your panties bunch at the realities of life.?

787 Saying TC is a real journalist is kind of like saying "that sh*t sandwich tasted good, think I'll have another! Not even FOX calls TC a journalist. TC was not part of the news department. He's a taking pin head. Come on, you know FOX has a news dept. By their own admission Fox News 20%, FOX pinheads 80%. They count on you to confuse the two.

Here is some Congressional testimony that debunks the claim that wind and solar are "clean":
stopthesethings.com

CO2 is NOT "pollution" or "dirty" It is a gas naturally present in the atmosphere that is not harmful to animal life and is a necessary nutrient for plants. Without it, all plant life would die.

As to real pollution, gas fired power plants have always been clean, and since the scrubbers were required on coal plants, they have been, too.

The so-called "clean coal" technology even almost eliminates the CO2 for those who have their panties in a twist about that. It uses coal gassification, a techonology that goes back almost 200 years. We had a coal gas plant in Washington, NC before the War Between the States which primarily provided gas for lighting in houses and on the streets. It was located on part of the lot where the new police station has been built. New Bern had one, too.

Absolutely not true. Happens more than people realize. With most babies it's easy, but there is a certain percentage babies it's hard to tell. The doc and the parents take their best guess and hope it all works out.Sometimes they guess wrong. Ask any OBGYN. You should read a book called "Middlesex".

As I said, viable due to no CO2. Compared to fossil fuels, wind and solar are much cleaner, not totally clean but better.
