Rich GOPers were/are so angry they

stopped being so admired after Occupy put inequality center in people's thoughts. And the rich GOP teach hatred of the poor these days. It was a hierarchical national order they tried to build. But 'all men are created equal' is bred in American's bones. People rejected having no empathy for the poor when Bush II tried to push Americans to ignore people who didn't evacuate during Katrina. The American people rejected a new american hierarchy last year during Occupy. They rejected it in the 2012 election. What will the rich GOP do now that their only model has been rejected? THEY WILL TRY,TRY AGAIN. Because it is the only thing they want.

I was thinking maybe he was looking for a new argument for the climate

change deniers. Because Hurricane Sandy has ginned up the debate on the part of environmentalists. And who is the only entity big enough to take on a 800 mile wide hurricane? Why God of course.

It is the presence of tween/teenage girls that makes tween/teenage boys behave.

Girls civilize boys. I remember being in grade seven and coming to the aid of a girl who was being bullied by the boys on a school bus. All of us girls tried to shut the boys down with statements of disgust and disapproval because they were being so cruel. That is how it works. If, in extremist cultures, boys are not allowed to have any contact with girls, they will continue to act in a wanton fashion, which, is abuse in the case of teenagers but can very easily turn into murder when such boys turn into men and have all power.
