Also, stop trying to evade the ban. Be a good guest for a change and honor the fact that I no longer welcome you here. You need to read up on your history. Also, stop trying to evade the ban.

Please don't add to Jimmeh's ignorance, like fat he has more than enough. The Dust Bowl was no such thing, it was 100% natural, a freak jet stream that's why it's so retarded to make the comparison.

Oil would not be spewing up from the bowels of the earth (as oil is naturally wont to do) were it not for human drilling just as massive dust storms would not have ravaged the North American prairie lands were it not for decades of human farming practices. How can people be so doltish? The Dust Bowl, like the Great Oil Slick, is a natural disaster … caused by extensive human interference.

You know, I'm tired of your casual insults, especially after I've told you on more than one occasion that they have no place here. Your IP is in the ban list as of now. UPDATE: FYI, this is the only IP in the ban list. If anyone else finds themselves getting some sort of banned message, drop me an e-mail and I'll look into it as soon as I can.

I apologize for suggesting that you were merely parroting some inane talking point and acknowledge that you came up with it all on your own. Weird, sometimes I get the "awaiting moderation" thing and sometimes I don't, more randomness at work. What a universe! At any rate the Dust Bowl was a natural and temporary phenomenon beyond anyone's control and while it was bad it certainly wasn't anything close to what the Gulf and the people who live in the region are going through. You may want to give that position some thought. Well, what a coincidence that on the same day you made the same pointless point in the exact same way.

It didn't hurt that I had watched a very good documentary called <a href="http://bit.ly/dlsndS" rel="nofollow">"Black Blizzard"</a> not all that long ago. Also, I have never turned moderation off. Your comment is not only amazingly ignorant but extremely insulting. Actually, my reference to the Dust Bowl came from my own head.

They've created an environmental disaster (sorry, Mr. President, but it's probably not the biggest in American history - look up the dust bowl sometime)" It's not that it's something you lifted from someone else it's that it's just such a stupid comparison that irks me so. It's a bit like bringing up "Krakatoa" in discusses the Gulf. And there was even a clue that it was a stupid thought as it was followed by: "It might in fact be too little. If BP cut corners on safety and if the cut corners greatly increased the probability of this disaster, it deserves every legal penalty we can throw at it. But let's not forget that a prostitute can be raped, church-going family men can commit rape, and you're more likely to get away with rape if everyone thinks the victim deserves it." Stunning that you would think that someone who would say something so deeply stupid would ever say anything but. I see you've put moderation back on, curious how that goes on and off, it's usually a hint that you know you're wrong. That's not something to fear, being wrong is the first step to being right. Ah I wondered where the "dust bowl" thing came from:
