Global Warming: Democrats definition - The effects of greenhouse gases such as fossil fuel emmissions on the Earth's atomosphere as well the effects the resultant atmospheric changes has on all life forms.

Global Warming: Republican definition - God huggin' us closer.

You said it! Whether liberal or conservative, Republican or Democrat, that's one thing everybody on the internet agrees about: we don't do homework for people.

(Well, unless you're offering to pay. Then it's considered outsourcing.)

Anyway, I don't think it's a lazy student. I call troll. Anybody who really wanted a conservative perspective on global warming could get one in about half the time it takes to register a Cellar account.

Be nice, please, she came here at my suggestion. She posted over at Tribalectic, a body piercing board, and I'm thinking . . . there aren't too many conservatives over there, so I thought maybe someone here might be able to help her.

Certainly not me.

Besides, what she is doing is doing her homework. She is attempting to find out what conservatives think about this issue. What is the conservative position?

Hallo and welcome to the Cellar!

I think I would start with looking for debates with or responses to Dole; his opponents are going to be stating the opposite position.

Wait a minute. What if I'm not a conservative? Does this mean I must stay seated? For all eternity? Crap!
