"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not so costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no chance of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves".
Too True
"That such an unnecessary and irrational project as building a European superstate was ever embarked upon will seem in future years to be perhaps the greatest folly of the modern era.”
"We are a nation with a government, not the other way round".
Reagan, inaugural speech, Jan 20 1981
(Interim) Last Word on the Subject
Stated briefly, I will simply try to clarify what the debate over climate change is really about. It most certainly is not about whether climate is changing: it always is. It is not about whether CO2 is increasing: it clearly is. It is not about whether the increase in CO2, by itself, will lead to some warming: it should. The debate is simply over the matter of how much warming the increase in CO2 can lead to, and the connection of such warming to the innumerable claimed catastrophes. The evidence is that the increase in CO2 will lead to very little warming, and that the connection of this minimal warming (or even significant warming) to the purported catastrophes is also minimal. The arguments on which the catastrophic claims are made are extremely weak – and commonly acknowledged as such. They are sometimes overtly dishonest.

PS: Probably not your fault (as I have seen this idea already elsewhere) but should there not be an "s" on "cent"?
I assumed it was a reference to the (black) popular cocktail lounge crooner 50 Cent, rvi

Still, he is the sexiest president since Clinton. Hopefully he'll be able to keep his presidential trousers buttoned.
A sexy President.
I'm glad Emma (a US resident, I'll have you know) has her priorities sorted, Idle.
I don't tend to think about sex and politics at the same time, chaps.
Probably just as well, with political heroes like Jefferson, Reagan and Thatcher.
you put a smile on my face this morning...thank you...
Not at all, Daisy.
