    Thank you for the info. I am even more convinced he can be the proper candidate to replace Obama now. This is greatly appreciated.

    Rick Perry fully understands the differences between weather and global climatic shifts. He is also open minded enough to understand that science is NEVER settled on any issue. What did you believe the theory of gravity was settled? Nope. The US Air Force has isolated more than 14 separate components of what we call gravity. The simple relationship between masses of two bodies has been PROVEN FALSE.

    you are able to tutor a small quantity of stable flavor and undergo in recommendations that over 500 families at the instant are homeless and a few human beings, which incorporates an toddler, are lifeless. Your assertion isn't humorous or a sensible argument against God or Rick Perry.

    It has nothing do do with climate change. It is a message from God. Ask Michelle Bachmann!

    Just in, Texas sets record for the hottest June through August on record in the U.S. But this is undoubtedly NOT and indication that climate could be changing!

    People like Perry or Bachmann are always willing to take adverse weather events as a sign - to those sinners over there.

    The flow of the jet stream is bringing warm, dry air throughout the South

    Since the Alaskan Glaciers no longer cross Interstate Highway I90 just west of Misoula Montana it is safe to assume there is definite evidence of global warming. However what Rick Perry doubts is that you or any other human beings have anything to do with causing the climate change.

    Explain what?

    Texas temperatures have been flat for the last 115 years: http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/research/cag3/...

    And Texas precipitation has trended up for the last 115 years. So if there are more or less or the same amount of fires, they don't appear to be linked to climate change.

    I have no idea what Baccheus just said above me. Links to data or giving some sort of scientific explanation has long been gone by the True Believers around here. Given that their prophets are losing their composure and grip on reality ( http://wwwp.dailyclimate.org/tdc-newsroom/2011/09/... ), I can only assume there is some sort of trickle down effect.

    I am guessing Perry didn't doubt climates change. He doubts humans are causing it. Since we don't know that humans are causing it, skepticism is the wise choice. I know Alarmists don't believe in choice, at least not in thought, so they spew vile and hatred toward any non believers. They demand conformance. This is more in the realm of religious fanatics.

    Baccheus simply believes to believe. He cries science and consensus and rants and raves but I am still waiting for a coherent thought.

    So brain child, what States do you think can afford to fight wildfires? Believe me California ranks dead last in credit worthiness or financial surplus. Another alarmist Epic fail.
