Time man of the year

You have to love the irony...

Spence points to the fact that developing countries are continuing to develop, as evidence that the world is in good shape. He also says, somehow, that Obama deserves the credit for that, but we'll put that aside.

What's the irony, you ask? The irony, and it is spectacular, is this...here, Spence celebrates the development of up-and-coming countries. But if liberals like Spence had their way, they would put an immediate halt to that development, in the name of global warming. The liberals want to tell these developing countries to stop using fossil fuels, stop driving cars, stop eating cows that fart methane gas, stop building houses that use electricity and fossil fuels, stop tapping into gas and coal resources that are literally fueling the development.

So which is it, Spence? Is that development a good thing for our planet, or a bad thing? Because if it's good for those countries to use their natural resources to develop, then kindly tell me why your ilk claim that we shoudn't do the same exact thing here with our abundant coal and natural gas resources?

You can't have it both ways, Spence. Have fun getting yourself out of that intellectual corner you backed into.
