On the other hand to continue destroying the economy like Obama is trying to

do is also just as scary. Where does that leave us?

Now, we don’t know who will win next year’s presidential election. But

the odds are that one of these years the world’s greatest nation will

find itself ruled by a party that is aggressively anti-science, indeed

anti-knowledge. And, in a time of severe challenges — environmental,

economic, and more — that’s a terrifying prospect.

#--------------------------------

The above statements are characteristic of a country under theocratic

rule. Theocracies thrive by keeping people uneducated, misinformed, and

subservient, (eg a congregation that will follow in blind faith).

Texas Governor Rick Perry is in bed with big oil companies, who want to

discredit global warming in support of continuing with an economy

dependent on petroleum. Burning petroleum is one of the major causes of

the green house gas CO2. I've got two words for you: Scary Perry LOL
