Extreme Weather and Global Warming

The scare tactics of global warming seem to be working for those still believing the media, and don't read newspapers to see "which way the lefterly winds are blowing?" or what fear mongering lie/rumor is being used today to control the masses...

Amazing, with all the "academia" nuts out there the population is still so ignorant...

Wake up, you are being lied to and someone is making a fortune off your fear and your attempts to do something "good for mother earth" - Buying special bulbs, special additives to the fuel, special, special, all at an added cost to you while lining someone's pockets! BUT, keep in mind, this isn't coming from this evil non-caring conservatives, NO, it comes from the liberal academics that care so much for you!

Does global warming cause extreme weather?:

Meanwhile, the mainstream media has been largely hiding from the public the actual cause of recent extreme weather events

Insight into The Left's Introduction of "Social Darwinism" for 2012

Some pretty good intro on the left's recent strategy… and opinion piece provides some good resources you might want to go to for real historical facts!
Obama Launches meme, Jonah Goldberg shoots it down:
...the myth that Social Darwinism was a popular term in the late 19th and early 20th centuries was largely created by the liberal historian Richard Hofstadter, whose 1944 book Social Darwinism in American Thought didn't merely transform our understanding of the Gilded Age, it largely fabricated an alternative history of it.

How Much is Enough?

For those of you interested in more than a free ride you might find this a good read. Be careful though the numbers will tell you something that you have never heard before - Lower taxes work,

...precisely what supply-siders predicted would happen with lower tax rates on capital gains, dividends and income. The economy and earnings would grow faster, which they did; investors would declare more capital gains and companies would pay out more dividends, which they did; the rich would invest less in tax shelters at lower tax rates, so their tax payments would rise, which did happen.
Their Fair Share - WSJ.com

The data show that the 2003 Bush tax cuts caused what may be the biggest increase in tax payments by the rich in American history.
Barack Obama says he's going to cut taxes for those at the bottom, but that's also going to be a challenge because Americans with an income below the median paid a record low 2.9% of all income taxes, while the top 50% paid 97.1%. Perhaps he thinks half the country should pay all the taxes to support the other half.

I know what you are thinking the rich paid more...YES, no matter what a liberal tells you!

It's Over or So They Say!

Well I look at the news and in the top ten story at the website I visited it said -

The American economy is on it last leg and we (Americans) are a bunch of fat people destroying the planet. Us Americans are living in houses we can no longer afford, driving vehicles that we shouldn't be, and eating to much while doing all this living, driving, and destroying.Because it is all over we should simply give up and depend on a saviour in government to save us from ourselves.

That is the reader's digest version, anyway - But, for me I will continue to drive what I want, eat what I want, work, and be happy...

If you believe what you read you might as well stay in bed or just find a hole, crawl in, and give up.

Sure it is...What about Twenty Years?

Easier to predict 100 years...wasn't twenty years the magic number twenty years ago? What is it now twenty more years... The global warming saga continues; of course, when I was in my twenties it was an "ice age" a coming. Let's put it this way - They need to get "almost" as accurate as the Farmers Almanac year-to-year if you expect me to even consider their predictions.

Scientists work on short-term climate predictions

ASPEN — Strange as it might seem, it is easier to predict changes in the climate 100 years from now than one decade from now, say scientists gathering this week in Aspen

A Reported is Wrong - Go Figure!

Got to love people that know what they are talking about?
