Phil Jones and Michael Mann — The Milli Vanilli of Science (LINK)
For those of you who aren’t following the climate debate (the one that Al Gore says is over), Phil Jones and Michael Mann are at the center of the Climate fraud that is coming to light.
Joe Biden said in his debate against Sarah Palin that the United States with the help of France kicked Hezbollah out of Lebanon. Joe Biden is an plagiarist. Joe Biden claims that Iraq is a great achievement of the Obama Administration. Really? Joe Biden make outrageous claims so often, people just shrug it of saying “That’s Joe being Joe”.
Joe is a clown. Keep this in mind when you hear Joe saying Dick Cheney is re-writing history.
One of the top proponents of global warming is now admitting there has been no warming since 1995 and UN climate panel admits flaws in a study that shows rising oceans. This comes in the wake of the released emails that started the climate-gate scandal and many other flawed studies. Each week brings a new embarrassing revelation…and Al Gore has gone missing.
Let’s be clear. We didn’t all believe this nonsense. We were mocked for our common sense. We were were demonized for not believing everything the media told us. Only a fool would ignore the “scientific consensus”.
On the other side, Democrats stoke a holier-than-thou pose. They wanted to save the world. Barack Obama claimed that his election would mark the day that the oceans began to recede. The Democrats in the House of Representative passed a massive regulatory scheme called “Cap and Trade” which would cost all American families thousands of dollars every year. Do you have thousands to waste on a global scam? I sure don’t.
With the climate scandal coming to light, aren’t you starting to agree with Rush Limbaugh. We want America to succeed but we want our President to fail at achieving his progressive dreams. How many times must the Democrats be proved wrong before people abandon their progressive, power-grabbing policies.
Dick Durbin has mocked the people around D.C. because they panic during snow storms. Power outages and traffic accidents apparently is no concern to a real man like Dick. The only thing that scares Dick is a half of a degree rise in temperature over 50 years. Durbin is a creature from Washington. He must be parroting his staff who actually live in Illinois.
John Murtha brought back pork to his district in a shameless way. His district will suffer now that he is gone. All those businesses that depend on federal funds will start to dry up. Murthas replacement wont have a fraction of the pull that Murtha did.
This proves that we are better when we are ruled by laws and stck to principals instead of personalities and politicians. John Muthas district had a nice ride, but advancing without merit does not last long.
A free society should love the press, but we don’t because they don’t deserve our love.
This is what an AP report says about the much hyped “Focus on the Family” ad.
Heisman winner Tim Tebow and his mother talk about her difficult pregnancy with him and how she was advised to end the pregnancy—implying an antiabortion message
Huh? Millions of people watched the ad and scratched our heads wondering what all the fuss was about. Then we were smacked with the AP report telling us we didn’t see the whole message. There was a hidden message in there. It was so hidden, that you won’t see it even if you watch it again…and again…and again. The key to seeing the message is special liberal tinted glasses that they hand out in journalism school.
What’s funny is the correction at the end of the article. Maybe this reporter was partaking in too much Super Bowl festivities. Nah…just another liberal that lives in a fantasy world.
I have been a global warming skeptic since the start. So were a lot of other bloggers. It was the work of some diligent bloggers (not journalist) that shined a light on the advocacy nature of the IPCC.
Matt Ridley writes in the Spectator:
Journalists are wont to moan that the slow death of newspapers will mean a disastrous loss of investigative reporting. The web is all very well, they say, but who will pay for the tenacious sniffing newshounds to flush out the real story? ‘Climategate’ proves the opposite to be true. It was amateur bloggers who scented the exaggerations, distortions and corruptions in the climate establishment; whereas newspaper reporters, even after the scandal broke, played poodle to their sources.
Let’s not forget. The IPCC was created by the UN, a scandal ridden organization of global elites. Who could have ever imagined that the UN would be involved in another scandal? Oh…just about everyone who doesn’t worship at the alter of the elites.
The President needs to spend some prep time with his teleprompter. It’s not Corps Man. The P is silent!
They made fun of Bush for his pronunciation of “nuclear”. They made fun of Dan Quayle for his spelling of “potato”. This is at least as bad as those…worse when you consider he is the Commander in Chief. It’s not like Dan Quayle was commander of all American potatoes or George Bush was the spokesman for the NRC.

The Obama Administration is increasing the budget at the EPA
the Obama administration has proposed a modest cut of $300 million from EPA’s overall $10 billion budget for 2011, the amounts allocated for global warming related regulatory and other activities is up, to $1.1 billion, or about 12 percent of the agency’s expenditures.
A total of $56 million will go to global warming regulations, while another $169 million of the $1.1 billion total will be spent on efforts directly aimed at reducing the greenhouse gases global warming advocates like former Vice President Al Gore claim are responsible for causing dangerous temperature increases in the Earth’s atmosphere.
The federal debt is huge. REALLY huge. We borrow and borrow and borrow some more. It is generational theft. Not only are we are stealing from our children, but we are also hurting ourselves. Congressional Budget Office director Douglas Elmendorf explains to Congress:
But even before you hit that crisis point (when investors stop buy treasury securities), of course, what’s going wrong in a more subtle — what’s obvious, but still very damaging way, is that the more of those treasury securities are being held, the less that investors will be holding of shares: the ownership of physical plant and equipment; the sorts of things that make our economy more — workers more productive over time and raises incomes over time.
It is a hidden form of redistribution from capital that produces wealth to the government that doesn’t. We need to get back to producing wealth.
This excerpt is from a journal written by Charles Pierce in 1790 about the weather in Philadelphia.
JANUARY. 1790. The average or medium temperature of this month was 44 degrees. This is the mildest month of January on record. Fogs prevailed very much in the morning, but a hot sun soon dispersed them, and the mercury often ran up to 70 in the shade, at mid-day. Boys were often seen swimming in the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers. There were frequent showers as in April, some of which were accompanied by thunder and lightning. The uncommon mildness of the weather continued until the 7th of February.
WindPower Monthly has some statistics from the German Wind/Power industry.
Germany has 21,164 turbines with a rated capacity of 25,777 MW, but the rated capacity and reality are far apart when you are talking wind.
In 2009, power generated by wind in Germany was 37.5 Terra Watt Hrs. That certainly is a lot of power but a closer look shows that it is only 16.6% of the rated capacity.
Let’s examine these numbers as it applies to the United States. The US consumes between 300 and 350 terawatt hours per month.In otherwords, we consume nearly 10 times the power produced by Germany’s 21,164 turbines in one month. As a quick estimate (definitely not scientific, but close enough for me to make my point)…to produce 30% of our power with wind turbines, we would need over 600,000 wind driven turbines!!!
In Germany last year, they installed nearly 1000 new turbines. At that rate, it would take us 600 years to install enough capacity for only 30% of our needs. (assuming don’t increase our power needs and the wind mills installed first never need to be replaced).
To get the job done (30% of our current needs) in 20 years, we would need to install 83 wind mills every single day for 20 years.
Conclusion: Wind won’t make us less dependent on anything. It’s just a nice science project for those who like to spend billions.
NOTE: For those who didn’t pay attention is science class…it goes mega, then giga, then tera. One gigawatt is one thousand megawatts. One tarawatt is one million magawatts.
