First, identified in the article as one of the people applying pressure was Phil Cooney. Wow! Look what happens when you actually read the article and aren't hell bent on ripping on people about what they write. If you did read the article you would have noticed that what you call the UCC is actually the Union of Concerned Scientists or UCS. You ask where they found the 150 scientist? That is a great question. Where the hell do you think they found the 150 scientists that felt pressure from the Bush administration? Oh! They all worked for or with the Bush administration at one time or another! Does that help you? If not, have someone who is above a second grade comprehension level explain it to you. The Jesus freak thing was a total joke! I'm sorry you were born missing your sense of humor! Also, I didn't say that people who doubted the climate scientists were Jesus freaks. I said if you took the conspiracy thing seriously you might be a Jesus freak! Guess what you are! Ha, ha, ha!!!! Either you didn't read what I wrote or you have the comprehension of an eight year old and shouldn't be impersonating an editor in the first place! I never said that the American people were stupid for electing Bush. You made that assumption. I asked what it said about us that we elected him. That is not saying we are stupid, rather it may be that we are too lazy to do the homework we need to when voting. It may be that we were decieved. It could be that the elections were fraudulant. Whatever it is, it is not because we are stupid. Again you took my words and changed them to fit your . You say what I wrote taught you George is mentally retarded. I never used the words mentally retarded. I said his comprehension level was retarded. Two different things. Finally, the oil companies waiting for Jesus was also taken out of context. I simply said that I sometimes wonder if they aren't waiting for Jesus to return and making as much money as they can before he gets here. If you had any understanding of how sarcasm works, you would have realized that I was implying the oil companies and many large corporations do not seem to care what happens to our environment (as if it doesn't matter because Jesus will fix it all when he comes back). IF you ever aquire a sense of humor and a higher comprehension level you should try to be an editor again (you should think about going to school first). Otherwise stay in chat rooms where you can understand what is being written. Thank you for not coming close to enlightening anyone. And in case you forgot, people will probably read my article before they read your pathetic attempt at critiquing my work. What does that mean? You and W will probably be the only ones who just don't get it. Before I forget, I am able to disagree with people without assuming they are missing something upstairs. George just really doesn't have anything up there. Money is what really determines who has the best campaign, isn't it? George W. Bush had more money raised for his first run at president than all the other candidates combined before he even announced he was running. So no, I definitely don't think George's intelligence or lack there of had anything to do with his winning the elections. Because of your ridiculous reply to my article I now know this: -You can't read very well. -You don't understand what you can read. -You are a Jesus freak! (If you still don't get the joke you should hang yourself from a ceiling fan) -You like to twist people's words to fit your own simplistic and humor devoid world. -You may actually have to look some of the words in my reply up in the dictionary.
