Kentucky Newspaper: How to Speak Russian to Sen. Mitch McConnell

[quote]One popular and oft-used Russian word is “To-var-ish,“ which means “friend” or “comrade.” Use this term if you want to cozy up to Sen. McConnell or hint that you really believe he is a Russian tool or asset. If you really wish to get his goat, you might call him a “iz-men-nik,” meaning traitor.[/quote]

[sep]Hmm, and I am willing to bet that you think climate change is avoidable as well? So why bother if we are doomed in 10-12 years.

@Mktonght

Climate change is not necessarily either avoidable or unavoidable.

We can't do anything about the Sun becoming a red giant.

We can, however, lower pollution levels, stop the burning of rain forests, etc.

@beckyromero In the USA pollution levels are lower then ever in the recorded industrialized history. We are doing sensible things to control. Not the Democratic 100% raise my hand on stage green new deal which is idiotic.
At least you seem to me a bit more moderate then most.
God Bless.

@Mktonght

If you've read more of my posts, you would have found that I was critical of some parts the so-called "Green New Deal" as first announced by Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

@Mktonght Man, the whole "I understand climate science better than all the climate scientists on the planet" bit has gotten so tiresome. And why are you going on about it in a Mitch thread?
