No, really, this time we MEAN it!

Keep in mind that five years ago, Al Gore was already preaching that the North Pole could be gone in five years.  Now, with this year’s perfectly healthy and growing ice cap at the North Pole, his schtick is, “No, I mean, the NEXT five years.”
I believe we call that “shifting the goal-posts,” a tradtion [...]

Cap and Trade Passes

This is what a Democratically controlled congress gets you.
Cap and Trade in all it’s glory. Hello $5 a gallon for gas, and double or triple your electricity bill in the next 10 years.
Bastards.  We are so phuq’d.

Global Warming and The Downing Street Memo

In the run up to the second Iraq war, there came to light a document which came to be know as the “Downing Street Memo.”  The crux of this document is that it reflected the author’s concerns that the culture in the White House at the time was such that there was only one right [...]

Hate Crimes and That Cold Chill They Bring.

Listening to the radio on the way to work this morning, I heard something that chilled me to my very core.  I literally got a chill down my spine.  I quite literally spoke out loud, “Oh, shit.”
It was a “top of the hour” news blurb about how the push for Hate Crimes legislation is gaining [...]

Remember, only whites can be racist.

The White House was quick to respond to the shooting at the Holocaust Museum yesterday by a deranged kook who has made his mark spouting anti-semitic remarks.  In the words of Pres. Obama:
“This outrageous act reminds us that we must remain vigilant against anti-Semitism and prejudice in all its forms.”
One must pause to wonder if [...]

You are judged by the company you keep.

Am I talking about Chavez….or Obama?
Yes.  Here’s a great breakdown of all the leaders Chavez has made nice with throughtout the world.  One hint:  They aren’t western democracies.
You don’t know where that hand has been!
And now, Chavez is B.O.’s new BFF.  So far, Pres. Obama has cozied up to Hamas Abbas, Chavez the Dictator, the [...]

Generalized Observations on the Insanity of Humanity

Whoa, I got a somebody-a-lanche on my Media coverage post.  Don’t know who linked me, but thanks!
Other Opinings:
~  I’ve never understood people who can’t bring themselves to believe in God, but will readily profess that they think The Universe has a plan for them, or that the Universe is trying to tell them something.  I’m [...]

Media Coverage of TEA Party Protests – Compare and Contrast

Well, on CNN, the Tea Party protests got only one link, but amazingly enough, the article was balanced, fair, and by no means a hit piece.  I encourage you to read it.  It lays out the basics of what the protests are about, and even seems to paint them in if not a positive light, [...]

DHS Report on Right-Wing Extremists Makes Stars & Stripes

There’s a front-page report on the DHS report highlighting the dangers of “right-wing extremists” in today’s Stars & Stripes,  yet strangely I can find nothing about it on their web site.  I wonder if that was an editorial decision to bury the story?  You can’t unprint newspapers, but you can easily delete a link.
There was some [...]

Pirates Invoke Rapist Rhetoric

“From now on, if we capture foreign ships and their respective countries try to attack us, we will kill them,” Habeb said. “Now they became our number one enemy,” he said of U.S. forces.
That’s right.  the bullies hate it when you fight back.  Makes their job so much harder.  So much less “fun.”  Can’t have [...]
