And folks, that’s why many Americans listen to GOP ’wingers’ global-warming denialism. It’s why many Americans are titty babies when gasoline goes up a nickel a gallon.

A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics.
