I may or may not be able to blog for a few days, as I’ll be on the road for a bit. (No, the police are not after me. Yet. Just need to take care of some outta state bidness.)

Please talk amongst yourselves until I return…No fighting, or I will turn this car right around.

A couple of things to not fight about: If you missed my story yesterday here at The BRAD BLOG on the Sunday “news” shows’ shameful “debate” about climate change, Salon is re-running it today.

If you’d like to hear my 30 second version/re-enactment of pretty much everything you need to know from David Gregory’s shameful Meet the Press climate change “debate” on Sunday’s show, listen to yesterday’s 5th Anniversary Green News Report.

Also, this investigative report by Inside Climate News, Center for Public Integrity and the Weather Channel is a blockbuster on the unreported air quality health hazards of the massive fracking boom now taking over much of Texas; the state’s hard work to not notice or report it to the public; and the seemingly rotten-to-the-core corruption of the Lonestar State’s public officials and agencies who are supposed to be regulating it all and keeping its citizens safe from these types of catastrophes.

This chart from the year-long investigative study offers an idea of just how upside down — in favor of the oil and gas companies and against the citizenry — that the Texas system has become…

Back, hopefully, soon! (As ever, tips for road money are tremendously appreciated and very much needed!)

    So Wolfgand Halbick, (spelling), is a real person?

    Just because Brad is away, doesn’t give us the opportunity to go insane.

    I’m not saying there’s no truth here, but let’s be careful!

    Does anybody remember the moment in the presidential debates when Reagan was destined to win the election against Jimmy Carter with a bumper sticker comment?

    It’s real easy for anybody to cut and paste things today, but if this is an unedited video, the American media should have been dismantled years ago:

    Look here!

    Larry @8,

    Yes. An ex police officer etc.

    But these days daze one can’t be too careful, because psychos are everywhere:

    The Lord is a warrior and in Revelation 19 it says when he comes back, he’s coming back as what? A warrior. A mighty warrior leading a mighty army, riding a white horse with a blood-stained white robe … I believe that blood on that robe is the blood of his enemies ’cause he’s coming back as a warrior carrying a sword.

    And I believe now – I’ve checked this out – I believe that sword he’ll be carrying when he comes back is an AR-15 … the sword today is an AR-15, so if you don’t have one, go get one. You’re supposed to have one. It’s biblical.

    (U.S. General). Holy stand your ground batman, there are crazies of every sort among us.
