Carbon Dioxide is Good for You

According to Michele Bachmann, Republican of MN, CO2 is not a problem in the world and she literally makes up her argument about the main contributing factor to global warming. Carbon Dioxide, according to the distinguished shock jock Republican member of the House, is a naturally occurring gas from the Earth. That isn’t a complete lie onto itself but her thought process is a gross and negligent tweaking of scientific facts. I couldn’t make this stuff up if I wanted to…

Republican’s like Michele Bachmann are why we on the left have nothing to worry about for a couple of elections to come. Give her a microphone and she will literally convert moderates by the millions every single time she opens her mouth to the Democrat side of the aisle vote. All in favor of putting a coal or oil fired electric generating plant on Michele Bachmann’s front lawn raise your hands! Then we can ask her if it is okay to pump all that harmless CO2 into her living room from the smokestacks.

Yes Michele, CO2 is a natural product but nature can not absorb the excessive amounts produced by the activity of mankind burning and releasing billions if not trillions of tons of this cute and cuddly gas (her thoughts and not mine) into the atmosphere.

Unbelievable!

Sixth Grade Projects

I think they are expecting a little to much from sixth graders these days. My eleven year old has to do a project or report on the periodic table and Ununhexium. What is a Dad to do when his daughter asks what Ununhexium is? My first option was to immediately default to the tried and true "Ask your mother" but she already left for work. Option two was a Google search. I love Google.

For the record, its a synthesized heavy metal with no known uses because it degrades to quickly. Which then leads me to ask why the hell did they synthesize it? I am so glad I'm not in the sixth grade. I think we can all blame Jeff Foxworthy for raising the bar on all of those fifth graders.
