Abolish mandatory minimums.
Also, don't twist my words, I said he presents both sides the argument not that he sides with conservatives.

John Oliver is a piece of shite
Posted on 6/22/17 at 5:07 pm to OMLandshark
it wouldn't shock me if this is a bait by Oliver and company to attack Trump (for his comments about opening up libel laws)

Then why bring it up if no one has?
So I can't say Oliver is no Lenny Bruce or George Carlin because no one said he is?
When was that rule written?

No.
Your posts suck.

It's all a big joke and the sore loser lefties and Trump haters are the butt of the joke.

Let's think of some other interesting insights that DawgFaninCa could come up with which no one has ever thought:
"Vince Vaughn is no Peter O'Toole or Daniel Day Lewis."
"Dave Matthews Band is no Beetles or the Who."
"Burger King is no In-N-Out or Five Guys."
"Vince Vaughn is no Peter O'Toole or Daniel Day Lewis."

My bad that's misleading, by that I mean theoretically, obviously we're still primarily reliant on fossil fuels. Its based on current efficiencies where we'd only require something like .8-1% of US land dedicated to solar to meet US energy consumption needs, and then if you extrapolate that for the rest of the world it would be less that 5% of the US. Obviously dispersion/etc makes that enrealistic but the theory behind it was what I was eluding to.

You're twisting my words. I asked a question based on your claim of Olivers "fairness" in presenting both sides. From your comment that he "presents both sides"...but never sides with any but one side...always the same side, paints Oliver out to be exactly what most leftists ideologues are...fake purveyors of "facts".

I'm all in favor of developing other means of creating electricity but I think the world will always need coal to some degree.
I like to think of coal as our ace in the hole.
We have huge deposits of coal and we will develop innovative ways of mining it and burning it much more cleanly than we are capable of doing today.

Being good at "mocking" doesn't make Oliver a good comedian.
No. That john oliver is hilarious is what makes him a great comedian. Especially when it comes to the political realm.

Fossil fuels will always be required until we can replace the combustible engine with a nuclear device. There are certainly ways to replace vast majority of common transport with battery powered devices but it's only for developed nations with dependable infrastructure. Others will need more flexibility.

I'll bet you don't have a sense of humor when you are the butt of the joke.

Well regardless of how useful or accurate a government reports are, citing an official report is not defamation--which is the point of this topic.
The report concluded that Murray was responsible?

The Labor Department says a Thursday settlement in the 2007 Crandall Canyon mine disaster clearly leaves mine owner Murray Energy with "acknowledged responsibility for the failures that led to the tragedy."

The settlement includes Murray Energy's acceptance of four violations considered "contributory" to two fatal August 2007 mine collapses at Crandall Canyon:
