Screw The Earth

 
The Earth — for those of you who may have fallen behind on your reading — is a piece of rock trapped in a slow death spiral into a cauldron of exploding plasma which, for lack of a better word, we’ll call the sun. Because that’s its name. There is exactly one interesting or worthwhile thing about this hunk of doomed space debris, and that is:  it happens to maintain the conditions necessary for supporting life. (The odds against this would be ridiculously impossible, by the way, if there were no God — so impossible that scientists have been forced to invent all kinds of silly multi-universe scenarios solely for the purpose of convincing themselves that there is no God. But that’s their problem, and neither here nor there.

So the earth supports life.  Whoopee. And there is exactly one interesting or worthwhile thing about life — only one — and that is the mind of man.

Screw the earth is right. We are economically dying. Clean air and clean water are a myth and have exacted a terrible price. As a nation, we've burned through the WWII generation's gold and riches. Now, we have nothing.

Obamba has solved the illegal immigration problem. He and his former supermajority democrat congress have made the economy so bad, reverse immigration is now happening.
