I hate this fucking month. Bush trys to kill Cheney:
BAGRAM, Afghanistan (AP) -- A suicide bomber attacked the entrance to the main U.S. military base in Afghanistan on Tuesday during a visit by Vice President Dick Cheney, killing up to 23 people and wounding 20. Cheney was unhurt in the attack, which was claimed by the Taliban and was the closest that militants have come to a top U.S. official visiting Afghanistan. At least one U.S. soldier, an American contractor and a South Korean soldier were among the dead, NATO said.
 Darth Cheney exscapes
Blah, blah, blah:
The crowd that nearly filled Virginia Tech's 3,000-seat Burruss Hall Auditorium to hear environmentalist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. speak probably had an idea about what he thought of the Bush administration before he took the podium. Some of Kennedy's books were on sale in the auditorium lobby, including his most recent -- "Crimes Against Nature: How George W. Bush and His Corporate Pals Are Plundering the Country and Hijacking Our Democracy."
Note the loaded, talking points title designed to appeal to the DU crowd... But early on in a rambling speech Monday night that lasted more than an hour, the son of a 1960s Democratic icon made it clear that he wasn't critical of Bush because of his political affiliation. He was critical of him, he said, because Bush has implemented policies and circumvented the law in order to enrich his donors at the expense of thousands of lives and America's environmental future.
The obligatory not so subtle attempt to stifle debate may be found here...wait for it...
But Kennedy's attacks weren't reserved for Bush. He criticized what he called a "negligent and indolent press" for perpetuating the idea that there's still a debate about global warming despite overwhelming scientific evidence that it is real. He went after scientists -- he called them "biostitutes" -- hired by big oil and big coal who churned out reports for pay after decades of not publishing anything.
Debates are never over in science you weepy, sniveling fucktard, people are still debating the Theory of Relativity, Jeezus Christ! This from the man who (sadly successfully) blamed Bush and Global Warming for Katrina and claimed that every hurricane season that followed was going to get progressively worse. As we all the know the '06 hurricane season was an order of magnitude worse than '05. Go back to the Hamptons or Cape Cod or wherever the fuck you go to pause and reflect and navelgaze out the big picture window in the living room of your compound onto the vista that (thankfully for you) isn't dotted by the very windmill power generators that you want to forcefeed everyone else and have a few boilermakers with Uncle Teddy. Your opinion is no more important than anyone else's. Gasbag...

Climate Panel Recommends Global Temperature Ceiling, Carbon Tax
Global Temperature Ceiling! Indeed! Why don't we just get a fucking thermostat, affix it to Mount Everest and everytime the temperature exceeds our arbitarily established guidelines have a Sherpa run up and make the necessary adjustments? The "Carbon Neutral Grannies" can be our Carbon Tax Collectors and Carbon Neutralizer Shock Troops.
A panel of scientists has presented the United Nations a detailed plan for combating climate change. VOA's correspondent at the U.N. Peter Heinlein reports the strategy involves reaching a global agreement on a temperature ceiling. A group of 18 scientists from 11 countries is calling on the international community to act quickly to prevent catastrophic climate change. In a report requested by the United Nations and partially paid for by the privately funded U.N. Foundation, the panel warns that any delay could lead to a dangerous rise in sea levels, increasingly turbulent weather, droughts and disease.
Scare 'em up real good now 'ya hear? They've been saying this or the "we've got 10 years bullshit" my entire life. Ahnold! Dork:
Schwarzenegger To Put His Jet On Global Warming Registry
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger leaves a big environmental footprint for one man, specifically with his frequent use of private jets to ferry him throughout California and the world. His two estates are large enough to house small villages. And the champion of environmental controls to curb global warming pumps far more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than an ordinary citizen, by far. He is driven everywhere in a caravan of two black SUVs and, sometimes, a lead sedan.
A lead sedan? I want one!! I could drive it wearing my Atomic Dungarees, my Spotted Owl Fedora and Aerosol Can Union Suit. I would like so totally rock.....
Oh goody! We're going to talk with Iran:
The United States and the Iraqi government are launching a new diplomatic initiative to invite Iran and Syria to a "neighbors meeting" on stabilizing Iraq, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Tuesday.
"We hope that all governments seize this opportunity to improve their relations with Iraq and to work for peace and stability in the region," Rice said in remarks prepared for delivery to a Senate committee. Excerpts were released in advance by the State Department.
That should solve everything...meanwhile they're doing this:
Iran is training anti-American Iraqi Shi'ites at sites inside Iran and Lebanon in the use of armor-piercing munitions blamed for the deaths of 170 U.S. troops in Iraq, the top U.S. intelligence official said on Tuesday.
...we'll see I suppose. Democrats delay debate on re-McGovernizing their party:
Senate Democrats on Tuesday deferred debate on revoking President George W. Bush's Iraq war authority, after failing to reach consensus on the best way to hasten the end of US military involvement there. The Senate had considered taking up an amendment proposed by Democratic senators Carl Levin and Joseph Biden which would revoke the president's 2002 authorization to wage war in Iraq.

Global Warming wiping out species at an alarming rate:
BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) -- Twenty new species of sharks and rays have been discovered in Indonesia in a five-year survey of catches at local fish markets, Australian researchers said Wednesday. The survey by the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, or CSIRO, represents the first in-depth look at Indonesia's sharks and rays since Dutch scientist Pieter Bleeker described more than 1,100 fish species from 1842-60.

Gore size 144 EEE Carbon Footprint:
 Leonardo and his man crush at the Oscars
The Tennessee Center for Policy Research, an independent, nonprofit and nonpartisan research organization, issued a press release late Monday:
Last night, Al Gore’s global-warming documentary, An Inconvenient Truth, collected an Oscar for best documentary feature, but the Tennessee Center for Policy Research has found that Gore deserves a gold statue for hypocrisy.
Gore’s mansion, [20-room, eight-bathroom] located in the posh Belle Meade area of Nashville, consumes more electricity every month than the average American household uses in an entire year, according to the Nashville Electric Service (NES).
In his documentary, the former Vice President calls on Americans to conserve energy by reducing electricity consumption at home.
The average household in America consumes 10,656 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year, according to the Department of Energy. In 2006, Gore devoured nearly 221,000 kWh—more than 20 times the national average.
Last August alone, Gore burned through 22,619 kWh—guzzling more than twice the electricity in one month than an average American family uses in an entire year.
Perhaps it was a cold, dark August
As a result of his energy consumption, Gore’s average monthly electric bill topped $1,359.
Since the release of An Inconvenient Truth, Gore’s energy consumption has increased from an average of 16,200 kWh per month in 2005, to 18,400 kWh per month in 2006.
Gore’s extravagant energy use does not stop at his electric bill. Natural gas bills for Gore’s mansion and guest house averaged $1,080 per month last year.
Gotta stave off that warming trend....
“As the spokesman of choice for the global warming movement, Al Gore has to be willing to walk to walk, not just talk the talk, when it comes to home energy use,” said Tennessee Center for Policy Research President Drew Johnson.
In total, Gore paid nearly $30,000 in combined electricity and natural gas bills for his Nashville estate in 2006.
Time to bust out the 3 Hummers and the Atomic Leotards, this is almost as good as what's his nuts owning Halliburton stock....it's tough being a Global Rockstar....

..as Global Warming mercilessly pounds America:
The remnants of a huge winter storm plowed toward the East Coast on Sunday after dumping as much as 2 feet of snow in the upper Midwest, grounding hundreds of airline flights and closing major highways on the Plains. Eight traffic deaths were blamed on the storm, seven in Wisconsin and one in Kansas.
 Motorists flee their burning c ars Utility crews labored Sunday to restore power after the storm blacked out hundreds of thousands of homes and business in Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska and Ohio. Street and highway crews - nearly 300 snow removal trucks and plows in Chicago - worked to clear pavement of snow and ice.

DENVER (AP) -- A large, fast-moving snowstorm closed sections of major highways on the Plains on Saturday and threatened to dump more than a foot of snow on the Upper Midwest. Interstate 70, a major cross-country route, was closed for about 200 miles in both directions from just east of Denver to Colby, Kan., because of blowing snow and slippery pavement, according to Colorado and Kansas highway officials.

The Media's new Christchild to win an Oscar:
NEW YORK (AP) -- Forget about sharing the stage with fellow Democrats on cable TV. Al Gore goes prime time, red carpet Sunday night at the Academy Awards before tens of millions, reviving talk of a possible presidential run. "An Inconvenient Truth," the documentary about the former vice president's crusade against global warming, is the odds-on favorite to win an Oscar. Gore plans to attend the ceremony as well as the glitzy before and after parties. This is what happens when the you receive fawning, uncritical press coverage and are bankrolled by billionaire puppet masters in Hollywood. The debate on Global Warming is not over just because some balding, overweight, blowhole politician who feels his birthright to the presidency was stolen from him by a man he considers to be inferior to him in every way says it is, there are many credible scientists who cut the science behind Gore's fear mongering bullshit to ribbons, they are just dismissed as right wingers or oil company stooges to stifle debate. Fine, the Earth has warmed one half of one degree celsius in the last 120 years. Point to the billions plus year climate history of this planet and show me how that small a temperature increase is unprecedented. Greenland was once green for godsakes, now it's ice and it was green long before the advent of the industrial age:
The warming that Earth seems to have been experiencing for about the last 300 years represents a recovery from the "Little Ice Age" of the 17th century and is part of a long natural cycle that goes back to include the "climatic optimum" of around 1100 AD, when Greenland was green and colonized by the Danes, and an even warmer period around 4,500 years ago. An interesting aspect is that these periods of warming appear to have preceded increases in carbon dioxide, suggesting that rising temperature triggers the release of carbon from such reservoirs as Arctic permafrost. The roughly one degree rise of the last century happened before 1940, whereas the CO2 increase came later, raising the legitimate question of whether human activity had anything to do with it at all. So, the "connection" that the environmentalists claim is indeed real. But as usual, they get it the wrong way around. Although the clearest correlation with these variations is solar activity, the seemingly obvious conclusion was resisted by the scientific establishment until the early 1990s because the idea that the Solar Output could vary went against prevailing theory. The astronomer William Herschel suspected it as early as 1801. In the absence of any means of direct measurement at the time, he suggested using the price of wheat as an indicator of sunspot activity. He was laughed at, of course. But the records in retrospect show him to have been absolutely right.
The Sun has far more say in whether or not we are going to experience "climate change" than your automobile, feline or bovine flatulence. How can anyone (except Bobby Trendy ) expect the climate not to change....sheesus! And here's another disservice these idiots are doing. Talk about fearmongering, talk about menacing people with an endless series of hobgoblins:
Half of young children are anxious about the effects of global warming, often losing sleep because of their concern, according to a new report today.
A survey of 1,150 youngsters aged between seven and 11 found that one in four blamed politicians for the problems of climate change.Are you doing enough?
One in seven of those questioned by supermarket giant Somerfield said their own parents were not doing enough to improve the environment. The most feared consequences of global warming included poor health, the possible submergence of entire countries and the welfare of animals.
Back to your glass holding cell, you have exceeded your Carbon Fartprint for the allotted 24 hour increment....Quote of the Day:
Richard S. Lindzen, Professor of Atmospheric Science at MIT, writes, “A general characteristic of Mr. Gore’s approach is to assiduously ignore the fact that the earth and its climate are dynamic; they are always changing even without any external forcing. To treat all change as something to fear is bad enough; to do so in order to exploit that fear is much worse.”
Skinhead attacks on the increase. Mentally unstable? Are you in the Space Program?
Prepare to be duct taped and tranquilized:
What would happen if an astronaut came unglued in space and, say, destroyed the ship's oxygen system or tried to open the hatch and kill everyone aboard? That was the question on some minds after the apparent breakdown of Lisa Nowak, arrested in Orlando this month on charges she tried to kidnap and kill a woman she regarded as her rival for another astronaut's affections. It turns out NASA has a detailed set of written procedures for dealing with a suicidal or psychotic astronaut in space. The documents, obtained this week by The Associated Press, say the astronaut's crewmates should bind his wrists and ankles with duct tape, tie him down with a bungee cord and inject him with tranquilizers if necessary.
...perhaps Britney could become an Astronaut. Psychics hired to find Bin Laden:
Psychics were recruited by the Ministry of Defence to locate Osama Bin Laden's secret lair, it was claimed yesterday. Newly declassified documents revealed that the MoD conducted an experiment to see if volunteers could 'see' objects hidden inside an envelope.
Ahnold! Go back to acting:
He thinks Democrats should stop criticizing Hillary Clinton for refusing to say she made a mistake by voting for the Iraq war.
I personally love the little foodfight myself, Romney agrees.
Darth Cheney: At least somebody loves me:

...seconds later these placard carrying cretins were re duced to fine powder by the Haliburton Orbital Death Laser....bwahahahaha!! Enveloping....Favorite moneymaking scam:
Sydney-based Easy Being Green says it will mitigate your cat's flatulent contribution to global warming for A$8 ($6). The same company could also make your granny ``carbon-neutral'' at A$10 a year, according to a report in the Australian newspaper last weekend.
...legions of carbon neutral grannies could become a force to be reckoned with!

Climate Change causes Anna Nicole Smith's body to decompose more rapidly:
A surprise phone call Tuesday afternoon from Broward's medical exami The bizarre battle of wills over Anna Nicole Smith's body -- a carnival of shouting lawyers, murder accusations, intimate revelations and media mobs shoving each other to get the story -- has now become a race against decay. Addressing the court via speakerphone, Dr. Joshua Perper did not tread delicately when he said embalmers who came to check on Smith Tuesday found that her body is decomposing more rapidly than expected.
Obama's middle name is Hussein!! He buys his clothes off the rack! Hillary's a liar!!
Clinton, Obama Foodfight:
WASHINGTON - Two Democratic presidential campaigns angrily accused the other of nasty politics on Wednesday over a Hollywood donor who once backed Hillary Rodham Clinton's husband but now backs her top rival.The Clinton campaign sent out a testy news release after DreamWorks movie studio founder David Geffen, a fan of Sen. Barack Obama, told The New York Times that Sen. Clinton was ambitious and polarizing.
Rightists! Sit back and enjoy! Killer Bees sweep through Europe, and guess what the culprit is? All together now....Global Warming:
Swarms of giant hornets renowned for their vicious stings and skill at massacring honeybees have settled in France.And there are now so many of the insects that entomologists fear it will just be a matter of time before they cross to Britain.
Wait for it....here it comes... Global warming has largely been blamed for the survival and spread of the Asian Hornet, Vespa velutina, which is thought to have arrived in France from the Far East in a consignment of Chinese pottery in late 2004.
Note: The Dunce who put them in a shipment of Chinese Pottery gets off scot free! Thousands of football-shaped hornet nests are now dotted all over the forests of Aquitaine, the south-western region of France hugely popular with British tourists.
Groan... If a Democrat were President this would be big news:
Bush's reckless tax cuts caused increased revenues to the Treasury?
Despite the ongoing costs of US military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan, the outlook for the federal budget has grown substantially brighter. Tax revenues are rising much faster than spending, according to Treasury Department numbers released last week. The recent trend is strong enough that, were it to continue, the budget could move into surplus in barely a year, one economist calculates. Already, the federal deficit is shrinking toward about half the size that it has averaged since 1970, when analyzed as a percentage of gross domestic product.
Say it isn't so...enveloping. Prince Harry scheduled to die in Iraqi Killing Fields:
Prince Harry and his squadron from The Blues and Royals have received their marching orders to deploy to Iraq in May despite yesterday’s announcement that 1,600 British troops will be withdrawn at that time.
Is this punishment because he was photographed wearing that Nazi uniform all those years ago? Or was that Camilla? Brit Hume rips Jack a new one:
That sound bite from John Murtha suggests that it’s time a few things be said about him. Even the “Washington Post” noted he didn’t seem particularly well informed about what’s going on over there, to say the least. Look, this man has tremendous cachet among House Democrats, but he is not — this guy is long past the day when he had anything but the foggiest awareness of what the heck is going on in the world. And that sound bite is naivete writ large, and the man is an absolute fountain of such talk, and the fact that he has ascended to the position he has in the eyes of the Democrats in the House and perhaps Democrats around the country tells you a lot about how much they know or care about what’s really going on over there.
Gore: Christ.

Carbon Fartprint:
Time to start eradicating American meat eaters:
American meat eaters are responsible for 1.5 more tons of carbon dioxide per person than vegetarians every year. Yet livestock are a major emitter of greenhouse gases that cause climate change. And as meat becomes a growing mainstay of human diet around the world, changing what we eat may prove as hard as changing what we drive. It's not just the well-known and frequently joked-about flatulence and manure of grass-chewing cattle that's the problem, according to a recent report by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Land-use changes, especially deforestation to expand pastures and to create arable land for feed crops, is a big part. So is the use of energy to produce fertilizers, to run the slaughterhouses and meat-processing plants, and to pump water. "Arguably the best way to reduce global warming in our lifetimes is to reduce or eliminate our consumption of animal products," writes Noam Mohr in a report for EarthSave International.
As prosperity increased around the world in recent decades, the number of people eating meat (and the amount one eats every year) has risen steadily. Between 1970 and 2002, annual per capita meat consumption in developing countries rose from 11 kilograms (24 lbs.) to 29 kilograms (64 lbs.), according to the FAO. (In developed countries, the comparable figures were 65 kilos and 80 kilos.) As population increased, total meat consumption in the developing world grew nearly five-fold over that period.
There's the underlying reason for Global Warming: Prosperity. The more prosperous people become, the more meat they eat, the more meat they eat the more they and their cattle fart and the more land must be cleared to meet the demands of farting people and their cattle. Prosperity must be curtailed. Back to your glass holding cell, you've exceeded your Carbon Fartprint for the day. Forced vegetarianism is the only answer. I bet Al eats meat. Have you seen him lately? He's looking rather squinty eyed and porcine, time for him to go to his glass holding cell....

Climate Change causes tiny baby:
MIAMI (AP) -- A premature baby that doctors say spent less time in the womb than any other surviving infant is to be released from a Florida hospital Tuesday. Amillia Sonja Taylor was just 9 1/2 inches long and weighed less than 10 ounces when she was born Oct. 24. She was delivered 21 weeks and six days after conception. Full-term births come after 37 to 40 weeks.
I feel safer already:
The Republican Culture of Corruption Continues:
William Jefferson (D) Louisiana, who commandeered a helicopter at the height of Katrina chaos so he could check on his property (i.e. remove frozen bribe money from his freezer, probably hidden behind the meat) is appointed to a chair on the Homeland Security Committee:
The Democrats' "most ethical Congress in history" is a self-parody: Rep. William Jefferson, the Louisiana Democrat who's facing an ongoing federal corruption probe, is being granted a spot on the Homeland Security Committee, according to Democratic aides. The appointment will be announced Friday, according to one aide who requested anonymity because the decision isn't yet official. Jefferson was removed from his seat on the Ways and Means Committee, one of the most important panels in Congress, by Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) last summer in an attempt to show how seriously Democrats viewed the allegations of corruption.

| WORLDEATER BUSH: Bush's Eco-Policies Killing Mars.... |
| 02.17.07 (7:47 am) [edit] |
American Fuhrer George HitlerOilBaronBurton W. McChimpstein's reckless, capitalistic plundering may have negative, far reaching implication s for the entire Solar System said Bush is Killing the Universe spokesperson Agnes Plam.
"The South Polar Ice Cap on Mars is melting at an alarming rate and if we don't stop it now the face on Mars will vanish and the flag Neil Armstrong planted on it's surface will be submerged, oceans will rise, polar bears will die, school children will have forks forcibly jammed in their necks without warrants, Mitt Romney will steal Florida in '08, warrantless deformities amongst puppies, kittens, frogs and flowering plants will rise and Mons Olympus will be nothing more than a boat launch for neo-conservative luxury yachts. Comb-overs will be a thing of the past."
Noticable warming has also been detected on Triton and Pluto as well causing shock waves amongst correct thinking Americans and a concert to raise awareness is in the works.

My young nephew seems to have a firm grasp on Valentine's Day:
ok, pass this on to all the ppl you know to warn them of this horrid holiday
Valentine's day is a holiday created by Females to persuade Males to buy them...A BUNCH OF CRAP!!!
thanks
Fortified with that knowledge, he probably won't wind up like this: Tiffany Sutton apparently wanted to drink up her lover on Valentine's Day - literally, authorities said. Police early this morning arrested Sutton, who they believe may have tricked her acquaintance into having "kinky sex" so she could drink his blood. The victim, 45, and Sutton, 23, were lying in bed naked at early Wednesday when Sutton asked if he wanted to be tied up and he consented, police said.
Global Warming hearings canceled after mysterious white powder falls from sky:

Arrests have been made in connection with this atrocity. Frenzied Preservatives rip deal:
W. does the patented Clinton / Carter / Albright"Framework Shuffle":
The White House yesterday found itself fending off a conservative revolt over the North Korea nuclear deal, even scrambling to mollify one of its own top officials who expressed sharp disagreement with a provision that could spring Pyongyang from the list of countries that sponsor terrorism, U.S. officials said yesterday. And the National Review, a conservative bastion, yesterday slammed the agreement as essentially the same one negotiated by President Bill Clinton in 1994 -- a charge the Bush administration rejects. "When exactly did Kim Jong Il become trustworthy?" the magazine's editors asked. The Wall Street Journal editorial page, normally a Bush supporter, also condemned the accord yesterday as "faith-based nonproliferation."
John R. Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, called the agreement -- in which North Korea would freeze its main nuclear facility in exchange for an initial supply of fuel oil -- "a bad deal" that violated principles that were closely held in the beginning of the Bush administration.
Not good, very not good. Kim will freeze his main nucular facility? Yeah and I'm Mr. Heimlich Maneuver. Rrright. It got Jimmy Carter a Nobel, the big question is will the Dubster yield one from the '07 remake? Naw, it'll go to Dipshit for predicting '07's "Winter of White Ash" and the accompanying searing tempratures contained within. He'll get the Oscar as well. Boortz opines thusly:
This deal we've made with North Korea...turns out to be quite the cave-in. Former UN Ambassador John Bolton calls it a bad deal and says the Bush Administration is violating its principles. Evidently we're going to give The Gargoyle and the Norks some fuel oil and take them off the terrorism list. All in exchange for what? Let's take a look at the deal.
As John Bolton points out, the whole thing sends a bad message, and he's right. It makes us look weak. If you're a terrorist state, like say...oh, I don't know...Iran, all you have to do is wait us out. Refuse to give up your nukes long enough and we'll cave in. You might even get something out of it, like the Norks are getting here with the fuel oil. Under this deal, North Korea will get a million tons of fuel oil just for shutting down a nuclear reactor.
Oh, and you know how North Korea counterfeits U.S. currency? No problem! We're going to lift the restrictions on their banking...so The Gargoyle can fire his money-laundering schemes right back up. As Bolton points out, we're paying The Gargoyle blackmail. Of course, as always...the problem with paying blackmail is the price goes up.
And once again, we'll be played for suckers. Just like Jimmy Carter was in 1994 and Madeleine Albright was in 2000.

"Minnesotans have a right to be skeptical about whether I'm ready for this challenge, and to wonder how seriously I would take the responsibility that I'm asking you to give me," he said. "I want you to know: Nothing means more to me than making government work better for the working families of this state, and over the next 20 months, I look forward to proving to you that I take these issues seriously."
Prediction: Smalley will try to win the Coleman / Smalley Debates by hammering the holy, living snot out of him like he has dozen's of others who disagree with him. Didn't he try to beat the shit out of both Hannity and Colmes or body slam a Dean heckler?
Worldeater Bush:
Confusion brought on by Climate Change causes cat to adopt Rottweiler pup:
MERIDEN, Conn. (AP) -- Who says cats and dogs don't get along? Workers at the Meriden Humane Society are marveling at a short-haired mother cat that has adopted a 6-day-old Rottweiler puppy that was rejected by its mother.
Good. Maybe if it's raised by cats it won't grow up to eat the face of a toddler like most Rottweilers do. Maybe Global Warming isn't such a bad thing. Joseph Kennedy makes a deal with Hugo Chavez for cheap heating oil so people can heat their homes to combat Global Warming:
Have you seen the latest Citgo-sponsored commercial for Citizens Energy Corporation? At first glance you may have mistaken it for a Saturday Night Live sketch and watched it prepared for a good laugh. That is, until you'd realized it was all too serious. Until it struck you that a member of one of North America's most powerful political families may well be in bed with one of South America's most notorious and dangerous men. But it gets even more disturbing. The language used to rationalize this unholy alliance appears to be right from the playbook of the devout anarchist many refer to as the Ayatollah of anti-Americanism.
The bizarre 30 second pitch (video) opens with a man who complains he needs 2 pairs of long underwear and a jacket to stay warm inside his house. We then fade into the image of an elderly "84 and alone" woman dragging an iron cot into her kitchen from her basement so she can, as her voice-over tells us, "sleep by the oven." The next voice we hear is that of Joseph Kennedy II, who assures us that "help is on the way." The son of Robert Kennedy then explains that heating oil is available at 40% off thanks to "our friends in Venezuela at Citgo." In closing, tyrant Hugo Chavez's good buddy asks us to give him a jingle at 1-877-JOE-4-OIL because "no one should be left out in the cold."
Run Rudy run:
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, a moderate Republican best known for his post-Sept. 11 leadership over his city, confirmed Wednesday his intentions to run for president in the 2008 elections. Giuliani made the announcement during an appearance on CNN's "Larry King Live." He had filed a statement of candidacy earlier this month with the Federal Election Commission and filed paperwork for an exploratory committee in November. "Yes, I'm running," Giuliani told King. "I think I can make a difference. I believe this country needs leadership."
Maybe Stuart Smalley will try to beat him to a pulp before our very eyes.... enveloping.
For dramatic effect, Albert Arnold Gore Jr's Global Warming Doomsday Buttfest is scheduled for one of the hottest months of the year:
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Al Gore announced on Thursday a series of worldwide concerts to focus on the threat of climate change, with a powerhouse lineup from the Red Hot Chili Peppers (featuring the notorious fop and dandy Dave Navarro) to Snoop Dogg (well known climatologist) to&nb sp; Bon Jovi. The 24-hour event on July 7 is part of a campaign, Save Our Selves _ The Campaign for a Climate in Crisis, that promoters hope will trigger a broad movement to address what the former vice president calls a global climate crisis.  Climatologist in thoughtful repose.
Thank god it's only 24 hours long, of course the buildup will be months in the making....groan...

Political Pawns of the Recording Academy??:
Chixie Dicks receive several ideological Grammys:
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 12 — The Dixie Chicks’ big win at the Grammy Awards on Sunday exposed ideological tensions between the music industry’s Nashville establishment and the broader, more diverse membership of the Recording Academy, which chooses the Grammy winners, according to voters and music executives interviewed afterward. Shouldn't one win based on musical merit rather than trendy political posturing? Global Warming continues to hammer New York and the Midwest:

Bind it: Non Binding Resolution comes to a vote:
A vote is expected by Friday on a nonbinding measure that opposes Bush's recent decision to increase the number of U.S. military personnel in Iraq while pledging support for the troops already there. The president's plan is based on a judgment that the way out of Iraq lies in sending more troops in. History has proven just the opposite. Four previous troop escalations have resulted primarily in escalating levels of violence," she said.
So why not just cut the fucking funding? Put your money where your mouth is. Weren't democrats the ones foaming at the mouth and falling over backwards demanding more troops back in '04, '05 and '06? If we hadn't gone into Iraq, the democrats would be impeaching him for not doing so.... Blogger who discussed the "Wads of Creamy White Holy Spirit" or something like that, quits the Billionaire Trial Lawyer's budding presidential campaign:
One of the chief campaign bloggers for Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards quit Monday after conservative critics raised questions about her history of provocative online messages. Amanda Marcotte posted on her personal blog, Pandagon, that the criticism "was creating a situation where I felt that every time I coughed, I was risking the Edwards campaign." Marcotte said she resigned from her position Monday, and that her resignation was accepted by the campaign. Karl Rove, Karl Rove....Hmmm: Trust but verify:
North Korea has agreed to take the first steps towards nuclear disarmament, as part of a deal reached during six-nation talks in Beijing. Under the agreement, Pyongyang has promised to shut down its main nuclear reactor in return for fuel aid. The US and Japan have also pledged to begin talks with North Korea on building closer ties.
I have to agree with Yosemite Sam here:
John Bolton, former US ambassador to the United Nations, said North Korea should not be rewarded with "massive shipments of heavy fuel oil" for only partially dismantling its nuclear arsenal. "It sends exactly the wrong signal to would-be proliferators around the world," Mr Bolton told CNN.

"I would like to say we're at a point where global warming is impossible to deny. Let's just say that global warming deniers are now on a par with Holocaust deniers, though one denies the past and the other denies the present and future." --Climate Expert-- Ellen Goodman
Global Warming is as devastating an issue as the Holocaust. Climate Change is a new, man made phenomonon, it's never happened before:
Climate Change Blamed for Pleistocene Megafauna Bust and Boom
Around 13,000 years ago, the world's climate began to change. Seas rose, glaciers retreated and ecosystems began to transform. At roughly the same time, humans arrived in North America, perhaps attracted by migrating game or newly hospitable land. Over the course of the next few millennia a host of indigenous large-bodied mammals, such as the mammoth, died out. Scientists have long debated whether climate warming or human hunting brought about this megafauna extinction. New radiocarbon dating results support the environmental explanation. Arctic biologist R. Dale Guthrie of the University of Alaska-Fairbanks, compiled radiocarbon dates for the permafrost-preserved fossils of six species--mammoths, horses, bison, moose, wapiti and humans--found in Alaska and Yukon Territory. The former two disappeared from the continent around 12,000 years ago as the latter four multiplied and spread.
He found that the horse Equus ferus had been declining long before humans arrived and disappeared a full 1,000 years before mammoths. This knocks out the so-called keystone theory, which holds that humans hunted the mammoths to extinction, causing a change in vegetation that subsequently precipitated other extinctions. And the mammoth's persistence over the next 1,000 years argues against precipitous overhunting. What?? Man isn't responsible for all extinctions either?? A change in vegetation, however, does seem to hold the key to understanding this radical transformation, Guthrie argues. Prior to the warming, this geographic area lacked trees and provided only sparse forage. This would have given mammoths, horses and other related species a competitive advantage, because they can wrest sufficient nutrients from a high volume of low quality feed. But as the climate shifted, the so-called mammoth steppe became the environment we recognize today, characterized by shrubs, tundra and forests. This type of forage favors grazers such as bison, wapiti and moose. There are no signs of these species in the region before 13,000 years ago, but they appear to have proliferated rapidly thereafter. "Archaeological refuse clearly illustrates the crucial role [in human colonization] of large mammal (at least bison and wapiti) resources as well as the increasing numbers of migratory waterfowl and salmonids in the Holocene," Guthrie writes in a paper published today in Nature. "These new data indicate that humans might have been not so much riding down the demise of [the] Pleistocene mammoth steppe as they were being carried into [the area] on a unique tide of resource abundance." In other words, at least in Alaska and the Yukon, climate change doomed the mammoths, but allowed humans, bison and other species to prosper.
These guys are on a par with the Holocaust Deniers, Flat Earthers and UFO Abductees, they are to be marginalized and banished.....Intergalactic Garden Hose Enemas all around!! Jack Bauer goes cetaceous:

| Eco-Police make pleas to curb Valentine's Day. |
| 02.12.07 (8:22 am) [edit] |
More skulldorkery from the environmental movement:
The Valentine's Day bouquet — the gift that every woman in Britain will be waiting for next week — has become the latest bête noire among environmental campaigners. Latest Government figures show that the flowers that make up the average bunch have flown 33,800 miles to reach Britain. In the past three years, the amount of flowers imported from the Netherlands has fallen by 47 per cent to 94,000 tons, while those from Africa have risen 39 per cent to 17,000 tons. Environmentalists warned that "flower miles" could have serious implications on climate change in terms of carbon dioxide emissions from aeroplanes. Andrew Sims, the policy director of the New Economics Foundation, said: "There are plenty of flowers that grow in Britain in the winter and don't need to be hothoused. "Air freighting flowers half way round the world contributes to global warming. "You can argue the planes would be flying anyway but the amount of greenhouse gases pumped out depends on the weight of the cargo." Vicky Hird, of Friends of the Earth, said: "We don't want to be killjoys because receiving flowers can be lovely but why not grow your own gift?"
Imagine if these "killjoys" ever get control of anything serious. I can just see it now, stepping out your door to go to work you are greeted by spotlights, roaring klaxons and a soothing police state mechanical voice: "You have exceeded your Carbon Footprint for the alotted 24 hour increment refered to as a Solar Day, please return to your glass holding cell..."

Global Warming kills 20 as searing heat deposits 100 inches of white ash and leaves Upstate New Yorkers entombed:
 More than a week of bitter cold and slippery roads have contributed to at least 20 deaths across the northern quarter of the nation — five in Ohio, four in Illinois, four in Indiana, two in Kentucky, two in Michigan, and one each in Wisconsin, New York and Maryland, authorities said. No deaths were reported in Oswego County, where Mexico is located, however. By 9 p.m. Friday a heavy lake effect band started to intensify over the county, said Tony Ansuini, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Buffalo. Officials expected up to 14 inches of snow overnight, a trend that would push the seven day total beyond 100 inches and continue through the weekend.
Chimpstein. Then there's this little bit of skulldorkery:

LONDON (Reuters) - Airline tycoon Richard Branson announced on Friday a $25 million prize for the first person to come up with a way of scrubbing greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere in the battle to beat global warming. Flanked by climate campaigners former U.S. Vice President Al Gore and British ex-diplomat Crispin Tickell, Branson said he hoped the prize would spur innovative and creative thought to save mankind from self-destruction. "Man created the problem and therefore man should solve the problem," he told a news conference to reveal the Virgin Earth Challenge. "Unless we can devise a way of removing CO2 (carbon dioxide) from the earth's atmosphere we will lose half of all species on earth, all the coral reefs, 100 million people will be displaced, farmlands will become deserts and rain forests wastelands."
How are we to determine whether or not we are removing the naturally occuring greenhouse gases and thus causing more harm than good?
Darth Cheney seen leaving the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino after.....oh, I can't do it....but this guy can...

The one sad thing in watching some of the coverage is almost no one had anything nice to say about her. Another perspective from the mean spirited republican community may be gleaned here.
As you've no doubt already heard, Anna Nicole Smith has passed away at only 39 years of age. Although it's sad to hear that Smith died, during the few times I caught her reality TV show, she came across as perpetually on something, so I guess her untimely death isn't necessarily a huge surprise. Still, way back when she first hit the scene and was doing ads for Guess jeans, I thought she was one of the most beautiful women I'd ever seen. Dahling: Zsa Zsa's husband steps forth:
In yet another bizarre twist, a third man - the husband of actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, Prince Frederic von Anhalt - stepped forward Friday to claim he had had an affair with Smith and may be the baby's father. Stunted little proles!!
Madame Speaker wants us to reduce our Carbon Footprint so she doesn't have to:
The United States has to cut its greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2050, and mandatory restrictions are the only way to do it, Speaker Nancy Pelosi told the House Science and Technology Committee yesterday.

Opponents of Poland's former communist regime reportedly want to pay a posthumous homage to US President Ronald Reagan by erecting his statue in the place of a Soviet-era monument.

Pelosi:
I promise to do everything in my power to achieve energy independence and to do so within ten years and to stop global warming. It's a very important issue. I'm very excited about it. It says to the American people that we are about the future, about addressing how we create jobs, how we care for our children, how we grow our economy, and how we preserve our planet. Former Speaker Erect, now Speaker Nanci "Flower Power and Beads" Pelosi, (D) California (in the midst of preparations for her McCarthyesque global warming hearings ), was forced by governmental edict to limit the size of plane she's allowed to use, thereby reducing her carbon footprint through brute force typical of the Bush Junta Police State: The Department of Defense yesterday sent a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that puts limits on the size of the plane she may use to travel across the country and restricts the guests she can bring, The Washington Times has learned. A congressional source who read the letter signed by Assistant Secretary of Defense Robert Wilkie said it essentially limits her to the commuter plane used by former Speaker J. Dennis Hastert, which requires refueling to travel from Washington to Mrs. Pelosi's San Francisco district. A second source, in the Bush junta, confirmed the contents of the letter. T he Washington Times first reported last week that Mrs. Pelosi's staff was pressing the Department of Defense for an Air Force aircraft large enough to fly nonstop to San Francisco. She also has pressed to be able to include other members of the California congressional delegation, her family members and her staff on the plane. It's not a question of size. It's a question of distance, Mrs. Pelosi told reporters yesterday. We want an aircraft that can reach California. E arlier, Mrs. Pelosi did not comment on the matter but yesterday began a counteroffensive accusing the Bush Junta of twisting the story. T hese misrepresentations could be coming from the administration, she told reporters yesterday. O ne would only have to wonder why, she said, though adding that she did not suspect President BushHitler (who at presstime, was busy overseeing ghoulish cloning experiments on school children and eating kittens) because he has impressed upon me over and over again the need for me to have the security that I need. T he letter from the Pentagon yesterday cites specific U.S. Code that government policy does not include the routine use of military aircraft for the speaker of the House. Nonstop service is not guaranteed, meaning she's getting Hastert's plane and nothing bigger, the congressional source said, referring to the commuter jet Mr. Hastert began using for security reasons after the September 11 terrorist attacks.
 Speaker Pelosi reflects on her recent setback whilst neo-Condi glowers in the background..
This is the woman who said she is going to stop Global Warming. If Madame Speaker wishes to limit her Carbon Footprint perhaps Madame Speaker should consider donning a diaper for non-stop crosscountry trips. As I've said before, I could drive 7 Hummers at once wearing radioactive pants and a shirt made of spotted owls and aerosol cans and pollute less than these... these...oh never mind, it may be deemed hateful...

Bull Sharks crack down on illegal Shrimp boat:
FORT MYERS BEACH, Fla. -- A crew aboard a shrimping boat were rescued after a group of bull sharks rammed and bit the vessel until it eventually sank off the Florida coast, according to an Associated Press report. Captain Roger Schmall said a group of sharks had been slamming into the Christy Nichole's hull for four days. But then a 14-foot bull shark broke the boat's tail shaft, leaving Schmall and his crew of two adrift about 100 miles off the coast. Schmall radioed for help, and another vessel picked the crew up about two hours later.
The odd behavior is probably due to confusion brought on by Climate Change. Global Warming sweeps from Coast to Coast:
MILWAUKEE, Wis. (AP) - Homeless people packed shelters, students got a day off from school, and drivers had to take their time as millions of people bundled up to meet subzero temperatures tied to at least six deaths. The arctic cold front dipped into the nation from the Dakotas to New England. Water pipes burst and car batteries balked, forcing many businesses to close. With a temperature of 12 below zero and wind chill of 31 below, Wisconsin's largest school district, Milwaukee Public Schools, shut down, idling some 90,000 children. In upstate New York, 34,000 kids got the day off in Rochester because of temperatures near zero. Schools also closed in parts of Michigan and Illinois. A few schools closed even in Minnesota, where February cold is the norm and people usually cope.
Exxon and now Toyota:
TOKYO (AP) - Toyota, hot on the heels of General Motors to become the world's No. 1 automaker, reported a 7.3 percent jump in quarterly profit Tuesday on booming sales in North America and Europe that offset sluggish demand in Japan. Toyota Motor Corp. (TM) recorded group net profit of 426.8 billion yen ($3.6 billion) in the three months ended Dec. 31, up from 397.6 billion yen the same period the previous year. Where does it end? A surefire cure for a politician's (or anyone's) infidelity ... counseling.
SAN FRANCISCO - Mayor Gavin Newsom said Monday that he plans to seek counseling for alcohol use, following the disclosure that he had an affair with the wife of a trusted aide. Newsom, 39, said that while "my problems with alcohol are not an excuse for my personal lapses in judgment," he had stopped drinking and wanted professional help staying sober. "Upon reflection with friends and family this weekend, I have come to the conclusion that I will be a better person without alcohol in my life," Newsom said in a statement.
Nice, dickhead. Bobby Mugabe's war against white farmers:
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - Zimbabwe's national security minister has told the country's last remaining white farmers that they will be jailed if they refuse to abide by a deadline that passed over the weekend for them to leave their farms, according to a newspaper report on Monday.
I'm probably a racist for pointing that out. I will seek counseling....

Diaper clad astronaut charged with attempted redrum:
 ORLANDO, Fla. - A NASA astronaut accused of trying to kidnap a romantic rival for a space shuttle pilot’s affections will remain in jail because authorities planned to charge her with attempted first-degree murder, an official said Tuesday. Nowak raced from Houston to Orlando wearing diapers in the car so she wouldn’t have to stop to go to the bathroom, authorities said. Astronauts wear diapers during launch and re-entry.
Nice to know, my next long road trip will feature Pampers with the stay dry lining....

1,000,000 species are going extinct every five seconds because of Global Warming:
A French-led marine expedition team has discovered what is believed to be thousands of new species of molluscs and crustaceans around a Philippine island.The announcement was made by officials and scientists on Monday.
Some 80 scientists, technicians, students and volunteers from 19 countries led by Philippe Bouchet of the French National Museum of Natural History surveyed waters around Panglao island, 400 miles south-east of Manila from 2004-2005.
The Panglao Marine Biodiversity Project turned over more than a hundred "holotype" or representative specimen of the rare finds to the Philippine National Museum on Monday.They represent the single largest entry of holotypes to the museum, officials said.
"Numerous species were observed and photographed alive, many for the first time, and it is estimated that 150-250 of the crustaceans and 1,500-2,500 of the molluscs are new species," the expedition team's statement said.

PARIS - The Eiffel Tower's 20,000 sparkling bulbs went dark for five minutes Thursday night and the lights went out at the Colosseum in Rome and the Greek parliament in Athens in a demonstration of concern about climate change across the European continent. Environmental activists timed the lights-out protest before the release Friday of a major climate change report that will warn of a worsening threat from global warming.

Barackstar Obama bathes, according to Joe Biden:
“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” he said. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.” If a Republican (say Trent Snott) had said something like that, he'd be spinning from a gibbet. An endless series of hobgoblins:
The European Space Agency says the most authoritative report on global warming to date warns of rising global sea levels and temperatures.The report was prepared by the Intergovermental Panel on Climate Change, an organization established in 1988 by the United Nations and the World Meteorological Organization. The study, compiled during a six-year period by a panel of 2,500 scientific expert reviewers from 130 nations, was set for release Friday in Paris.
Global Warming linked to stronger hurricanes:
Global warming has made stronger hurricanes, including those in the Atlantic such as Katrina, an authoritative panel on climate change has concluded for the first time, participants in the deliberations said Thursday.
As we all saw, the '06 Hurricane Season was an order of magnitude worse than the '05 Hurricane Season...If HitlerBurton's Secret Police suppressed the science behind man caused Global Warming how come I can't lift up a public toilet seat without seeing some reference to man caused Global Warming? They didn't do a very good job if they did...Then of course there's this:
At a time when the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) is censuring free market organizations for accepting donations from ExxonMobil, critics have turned the spotlight back onto the UCS, its left-wing positions, and its own funding practices.
Kinda evens things out then doesn't it? Many of the folks in the UCS aren't even scientists, many are hell bent activists who (as I recall) paid a $15 activation fee and they are instant scientists...
Further evidence the Bush administration suppressed scientific research:
20 year study: Reagan era tax cuts lead to an increased incidence of BillyBob Teeth among elderly Americans.
Out of Control Political Correctness??:
Remember when the Right had a near-monopoly on censorship? If so, you must be in your sixties, or older. Now the champions of censorship are mostly on the left. And they are thickest on the ground in our colleges and universities. Since the late 1980s, what should be the most open, debate-driven, and tolerant sector of society has been in thrall to the diversity and political correctness that now form the aggressive secular religion of America’s elites. The censors have only grown in power, elevating antidiscrimination rules above “absolutist” free-speech principles, silencing dissent with antiharassment policies, and looking away when students bar or disrupt conservative speakers or steal conservative newspapers. Operating under the tacit principle that “error has no rights,” an ancient Catholic theological rule, the new censors aren’t interested in debates or open forums. They want to shut up dissenters. In October, for instance, a student mob stormed a Columbia University stage, shutting down speeches by two members of the Minutemen, an anti-illegal-immigration group. The students shouted: “They have no right to speak!” Campus opponents of Congressman Tom Tancredo, an illegal-immigration foe, set off fire alarms at Georgetown to disrupt his planned speech, and their counterparts at Michigan State roughed up his student backers. Conservative activist David Horowitz, black conservative columnist Star Parker, and Daniel Pipes, an outspoken critic of Islamism, frequently find themselves shouted down or disrupted on campus.
A New Phantom Menace: Global Balding:
A nice, soft fluffy coat is of little use to a hedgehog. But poor old Glen is having to make do without any prickles - apparently thanks to global warming. Vets believe his freak appearance was caused by the stress of missing out on his winter hibernation. He was found in Peebles in the Scottish Borders long after he should have nodded off into a deep sleep until spring. He had a few prickles but now even they have fallen out.
If the Union of Concerned Scientists could make a definitive link to human baldness, millions of men could sue the Bush Administration for not signing Kyoto... Evil Profits:
Oil Giant Exxon Mobil on Thursday posted the largest annual profit by a U.S. company $39.5 billion even as earnings for the last quarter of 2006 declined 4 percent.
Kill them...enveloping..
Unintended Consequences:
Compared with gasoline, it produces 12% less "greenhouse" gasses linked to global warming, according to the study. But the researchers also said it has environmental drawbacks, including "markedly greater" releases of nitrogen, phosphorous and pesticides into waterways as runoff from corn fields. Ethanol, especially at higher concentrations in gasoline, also produce more smog-causing pollutants than gasoline per unit of energy burned, the researchers said. "There's a lot of green in the money that's going into ethanol, but perhaps not so much green is coming out as far as the environment," said Hill, the lead author, in a telephone interview.
