No, but _some_ republicans do and some believe there's unlimited oil for

oil there is as long as there's enough for their own lifetime (like
the head of Exxon). Others are only interested in money now and to hell
with the future, good, bad or otherwise. Greedy folks can find lots
of justifications for ignoring reality in the short run.

None of this has anything to do with those people being Republicans,
and these alleged beliefs do not extend to all Republicans. There are
probably even Democrats who don't understand science, believe it or
not.

Hell, there are Democrats who don't even know what the word "ban" means -
they must not, since they claim that "We won't use federal money to fund
any NEW LINES of stem cell research" means "George Bush banned stem cell
research".

BTW - although the existance of such beliefs is real, I posted that as
a joke, which seems to have gone right over the heads of the right wingers.
They really gotta loosen up. Talk about getting a grip.

Provide a legit e-mail or at least one that
can be divined from what you do provide.

Why?

Because an anonymous coward's opinions are worth exactly nothing. You
can't back up your noise with any sort of facts, and you're hiding who
you are. Just noise in the background. If you cared about what you say,
you'd have the balls to back it up with who you are.

Ever since I changed email addresses and stopped using a real or parsable
addy on Usenet, the spam has _stopped_. I don't want it back.

So subscribe to a spam filtering service, or buy a program that does it,
or install SpamAssassin.
