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!
