What’s so cool about China?

The Spokesman-Review

Many scientists are proving that we’re not causing global warming but our government is covering up their reports.

Millions of years ago the North and South poles were warm. Our deserts were oceans. It’s a good thing we weren’t around so they could blame us for global warming then. The Earth just goes through cycles.

We need a third party that really loves America and follows our Constitution. One that thinks above their pay grade and not tell fairy tales. How gullible are you?

Did you watch on TV when China hosted the world Olympics? The news showed the air quality was so bad that people had to wear masks. China was embarrassed and had half of the manufacturers close down for three months! It still wasn’t good enough, so they shut down more so the athletes could breathe!

We send our jobs and companies to China and other countries with the same pollution problem. Why? I guess it’s because they don’t have global warming. Our taxes pay companies to move from our country to others that don’t have global warming. Lies in the news tell us we’re destroying the Earth. So why aren’t they worried?
