Review and Comment on the News 10/31/07

Carnival of Asshats:

Senate to conduct hearings into Global Warming's role in
wildfires:

Following the devastating fires in Southern California, the Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming will hold a hearing examining the scientific link between a changing climate and the frequency and intensity of wildfires.

Witnesses (Uncle Albert to the stand) will discuss the present effects of climate change on wildfires and contributing factors such as increased drought, changes in snowmelt patterns, changes in precipitation, and higher temperatures.  In addition, mitigation and adaptation strategies will be discussed.


Meanwhile back at the ranch:

 SANTA CLARITA, Calif. (AP) - Officials blamed a wildfire that consumed more than 38,000 acres and destroyed 21 homes last week on a boy playing with matches, and said they would ask a prosecutor to consider the case.

The boy, whose name and age were not released, admitted to sparking the fire on Oct. 21, Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. Diane Hecht said Tuesday. Ferocious winds helped it quickly spread.

"He admitted to playing with matches and accidentally starting the fire," Hecht said in a statement.



If Friends of the Earth ever get a hold of his name..... Naomi Campbell is the latest in a growing list of celebrities to kiss Chavez' ring:

British supermodel Naomi Campbell met privately with President Hugo Chavez on Tuesday, becoming the latest in a series of celebrities hosted by the Venezuelan leader.
Last month, Chavez met in Caracas with American actor Kevin Spacey, who praised the Venezuelan government's efforts to support film-making. The Venezuelan President also has hosted recent visits by Hollywood stars including Sean Penn and Danny Glover.

The Big Question is, which Democratic Presidential Candidate will he endorse?

This comes as no surprise:

Asked about the statement by actress Shirley MacLaine that Kucinich had seen a UFO at her house, Kucinich said that he had. He quickly sought to clarify -- an "unidentified flying object" he said holding up his hand -- but man oh man.

Why the need to clarify Dennis? Isn't that what UFO stands for?

HitlerBurton W. McChimpstein dares to chastise "The People's Congress":

President Bush on Tuesday slammed Congress for not getting its work done and focusing too much on investigating his administration and repeatedly attempting to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq.

That's all they were elected to do...just ask them...

“We’re near the end of the year, and there really isn’t much to show for it,” Bush told reporters following a meeting with House GOP leaders.

Which isn't all bad...

Nation of Warmongers!

52% of Americans want "Illegal airstrikes for oil" against Iran:

A majority of likely voters – 52% – would support a U.S. military strike to prevent Iran from building a nuclear weapon, and 53% believe it is likely that the U.S. will be involved in a military strike against Iran before the next presidential election, a new Zogby America telephone poll shows.

Ron Paulers engage in the political process:

Ron Paul supporters (college kids) are trying to raise money by
playing the Halo 3 video game for 12 hours a day, seven days a week and broadcasting the gaming sessions over the Internet.

Maybe Kucinich saw the UFO online after an epic Halo 3 excursion....

Buffet wants to pay more taxes:

The United States' second-richest man has delivered a blunt message to the Bush administration: he wants to pay more tax.

So...write a check to the United States Treasury, care of the IRS
