They just don't make them any stupider than this

I don't think it will ever be possible to definitively state that any given freeper thread is the stupidest of all time, but this one has to be rated high in that competition and this comment? Wow.

The thread is about how "econuts" are jumping on the coal ash spill in N.C.

Here's the thread winner (so far) comment:

"As my inlaw grandfather once said as he poured his motoroil and gas cans into the yard, “It came from the earth, it goes back into the earth”.

or maybe it's this one:

"Coal ash is carbon. Carbon is chemically neutral. Besides, when it was dug out of the ground, coal was carbon then too. So was it a pollutant before it was mined?

Eco-hysteria reigns."

Unbelievably stupid.
