Unsettled Science ...

The talks at Copenhagen are expected to find ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions globally.

But Professor Ian Plimer, said that to stop climate change Governments should find ways to prevent changes to the Earth’s orbit and ocean currents and avoid explosions of supernovae in space.

Of the saga of the leaked emails, he said: “If you have to argue your science by using fraud, your science is not valid.”

I hope Al Gore is hiding under a bed.

Grinch-in-Chief

Fulfilling his campaign promise to cut Federal spending, President Obama's White House has halved the number of Jewish guests traditionally invited to the annual White House Chanukah celebration.

Millions of Jewish voters, whose fervent support in November 2008 propeled Mr. Obama to the White House, however, understand that this ponderous affront is a reasonable sacrifice that will allow the administration to maintain current spending levels on more vital national expenditures like this, this, this, this, and this.

Rogue Reader

When asked by reporters in Beijing if he plans to read "Going Rouge," the new book written by Sarah Palin, President Obama answered that "he probably won't read it."

Hang on a moment. Sarah Palin is the former Vice Presidential candidate, currently an extremely visible political figure, and is the public face of an increasingly vocal wave of energized Republican Conservative activism fueled directly by Obama administration policies and perceived excesses.

Certainly there must be a dozen WH staffers tearing the book apart so they can start digging as much rebuttal mud they can possibly find. So, yes, technically, the president may not read it.

But does he really want to appear that dense by implying he has no interest in what is already a bestseller? It was dopey enough to hear of Robert Gibbs' smug claim that the president "wasn't even watching election returns." The administration's myopic posturing is childish. And an insult to our intelligence.

The president must think this is high school, and he's just too cool to care.

Really. Who's advising this guy?

Puff the Magic President

Barack Obama was elected because he's a good pubic speaker. Oddly, his reportedly remarkable oratorical talent seems to come and go like a distant radio signal. His speeches range from riveting to ridiculous, with broad gaps in between.

Yesterday was one of his ridiculous days. Unfortunately for the President, his latest valley of eloquence had to come on the a day a crazed army psychiatrist stationed at Fort Hood, Texas shot and killed 13 people, and injured over 30.

Instead of stepping to the podium with a sober tone, comforting and reassuring a nation that traditionally looks to its president for strength and stability in times of tragedy, the President began thanking a list of people for their role in organizing a conference most Americans knew nothing about. It wasn't brief.



The president kept going for nearly two and a half minutes, thanking people, drawing applause, smiling to the crowd, and seemingly unaware of the tragedy had just taken place.

Then, just as he finished pledging undying support to the invisible audience, his off-the-cuff suddenly shifted from jocular to jeremiad. Like an actor getting into character, he lowered the tone of his voice and ticked off the known specifics of the shooting. Halting and atonal, he offered perfunctory condolences and a form-letter pledge of promised government assistance. Not forgetting to remind everyone who he is, he noted that because he's the Commander in Chief, he 'll everything possible to find out what happened, and why.

The thing is, President Obama is not a very good actor. When caught unprepared, his voice turns tentative and flat. Words stumble from his mouth in random, hurky jerky clumps that draw attention from what he's saying to how. When Mr. Charisma loses his mojo, you'll hear more sincerity coming from the gas company's phone reception loop than the presidential podium.

His facial expression revealed no emotion or expression. He was reading from notes and referring to them every sentence or two. He seemed more preoccupied with getting through the speech than why he was giving it.

There you have it. Millions of people voted to elect a president who's key qualification was the ability to give a humdinger of a speech. What will happen when they to understand that without a teleprompter and days of practice, the president sounds like an utter boob?

The Muslim Murder Gene

I've said it before: there is some genetic tripwire unique to Muslims that makes them murder and maim. Maybe it's nature. Maybe it's nurture. Maybe it's both. But it's there, it's real, and it's a grave danger to every civilized society.

I write this in response to the horrific shooting spree that took place yesterday, at the Fort Hood army base in Texas. My immediate thought was that it was a Muslim. I knew what was coming the moment the news anchor said, "the shooter is reported to be..." [insert Muslim name].

Once again, a Muslim in the military, a psychiatrist, no less, opens fire on fellow soldiers, despite there being no significant indication of that murderous potential. As if on cue, the apologists and morally retarded ponderously insist that this tragedy is no different that those three or four obscure incidents involving American, non-Muslim soldiers who go postal.

The argument proves nothing. Much like the specious scum who invoke Timothy McVeigh and the KKK to every inference of the connection between Islam, terrorism and your run-of-the-mill barbarity.

We learn in statistics that correlation does not indicate causation. The mathematical model for the unique Jewish concept of Havei dam L'kaf z'chus -- not to judge the actions of others.

On the other hand, the conventional wisdom that "If it walks like a duck," and "If there's smoke there's fire," is wise indeed. Why take chances for the sake of intellectual restraint. Just because we shouldn't draw conclusions based on correlative data doesn't mean we should to avoid taking measures to protect ourselves.

If the pit bull down the block attacked several people, it's possible they provoked the attack. But that shouldn't stop me from avoiding the danger by taking another route.

Just last week, the news reported that a Muslim man ran over his daughter with a car, because he felt she was becoming too "Westernized."

Also last week, a Muslim woman in Staten Island slashed her sleeping husband's throat because he forced her to dress provocatively and eat pork; serious violations of her Islamic beliefs. Forcing anyone to violate their religious beliefs is a serious issue; not to be taken lightly. But, even when plausibly justified, to respond with murder, and in such a gruesome manner, is largely atypical.

But not among Muslims.

In 2009, Americans have become more familiar with a savage Muslim custom known as "honor killings." For the uninitiated, an honor killing involves the brutal murder, and mutilation of a young Muslim woman, who is known or suspected to be engaged in any number of un-Islamic behavior, by her father. Or her brother, uncle, or a male cousin (and occasionally her mother). Islam's apologists usually offer meandering gauze to prove that honor killings violate Muslim tenets, occur very rarely, and even then, among the minority of radicals that are found in every society and every religion.

I highly doubt that.

When the equivalent "un-Behavior" occurs in a Jewish family, they sit shiva; Catholics pray; Protestants sulk and drink; and most other people shrug and accept. Muslims murder.

Last year, a prominent Muslim businessman in upstate New York, the founder of an Islamic television station and described as a "moderate," decapitated his wife. The atrocity is mind-numbing. And, yet, unsurprising.

In the earlier stages of the Iraq war, Western civilization was horrified when al-Quada terrorist began kidnapping American soldiers, reporters, and contractors, and while laughing and chanting slogans, sawed off their heads on video, and held the decapitated head up to the camera like a baseball trophy.

American citizens were going white and feeling wobbly as they considered this demonic atrocity. My good friend was talking to his Muslim-American mechanic, and asked what he thought. My friend knows this mechanic, who is an American citizen, for nearly a decade. He always thought that their friendship was proof that, with a little respect and understanding, Jews and Muslims could get along just fine.

His mechanic's thoughts shocked him. He had no thoughts. Or anger. Or opinion. He just said, calmly, distractedly, "We should pray."

We should pray. We should pray that these Muslims take their murderous genes and predisposed hatred for life and universal freedom, and go away.

It's a Green Eyed Fraud...

It's astounding that Liberal skunks like Al Gore and the NY Times refuse to acknowledge the definition of "conflict of interest."

It's an old story that Al Gore is positioned to earn millions, if not billions, of dollars from legislation that results from his phony Global Warming hysterics.

It's galling, but no surprise, when the NY Times finally reports Gore's financial motives for this global con, the devotes the article to validating Gore's outrageous justifications, minimizing Gore's cynical greed, and painting his public thievery as altruism.

It's true that Gore is not an elected official, and has every legal right to spout any nonsense he wants, and to profit from said nonsense in any way possible.

It's no different than your run-of-the-mill, dirtbag televangelist who claims to heal the sick, talks in tongues until his followers swoon, and then prays all the way to the bank.

But it is a problem when once-Presidential Candidate and former-Vice-President Al Gore uses his considerable access and influence to lobby the President, the Senate, and Members of Congress to pass massive "Green Legislation," from which he will personally net earning in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

It's unconscionable that protecting Gore's investments will be directly linked to bilking billions of dollars from helpless, middle-class chumps through higher taxes, tightening regulations, and across-the-board higher costs for energy and manufactured goods.

It's outrageous that Gore's spectacular fraud is being ignored or shrugged away by the most influential members of the media.

It's criminal that so many are letting Gore to get away with it.

Down with -ism!!!

Something to look forward to...

This article from the UK is a raw look on what happens when the government becomes inextricably entwined with healthcare.

Obama and his band of mealy-mouthed liars want you to believe that US healthcare is substandard compared to other industrialized nations. You'd have to be crazy to believe them. Not to mention, suicidal.
