There is a rank due to the United States, among nations, which will be withheld, if not absolutely lost, by the reputation of weakness. If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known that we are at all times ready for war.

A Really Inconvenient Truth

What Al Gore Doesn't Want You to Know

Is climate change real? Sure, there are subtle changes happening all the time and should be expected. We live in a dynamic universe on a dynamic world—nothing is static; if it were, we wouldn't have daily high and low temperatures.

But is mankind responsible for any climate changes? Well, the answer there is "yes," too. We are as dynamic as the universe we live in—technological advances throughout the ages are testimony to that. We cannot help but have an affect in the environment in which we live, which is the principle known as the observer effect. But we must be cautious to say that we are the only cause, for we simply are not.
