I use to admire reporters.

I mean Clark Kent worked at a newspaper and when he wasn't saving Lois Lane he was catching crooks and otherwise saving the world.


Then they morphed into journalists,
started making much more money than their audience and decided their mission was to tell the great unwashed the latest version of the truth as handed to them by the various Leftie politicians, Gollywood stars, and those above them on the media ladder.

Worse, at least 98% of them went through school with no, or at the least the bare minimum of hard sciences and logic classes. That means they have no way of analyzing what they have been told, or read. And since their schooling was almost totally of the Left, they choose to believe whatever the Left tells them.

Floods engulf Midwestern river towns. Is it global warming, the gradual degradation of a planet's weather that man seems powerless to stop or just a freakish late-spring deluge?


Take the above. Rain happens when water vapor condenses around a dust particle. And what makes water vapor condense? Cooler air. And what makes cooler air? A cold front.

Now, if the globe is warming then we should have less cold fronts. Less rain. Fewer tornadoes. So the problem isn't the perfectly average warm weather, it is the below average cold air contained in that cold front bumping into that perfectly normal spring/summer warm air.

the planet stopped warming 2 years before Bush took the oath in 2001, has been cooling since 2002 and that this year's was the fourth coldest May since 1979.

....the University of Alabama, Huntsville just published its satellite-derived temperature anomalies for May. The figures depict a global temperature drop of 0.195°C between April and May, and a drop of 0.379°C since May of last year. Anthony Watts, one of myriad scientists attributing recent cooling (and global temperature anomalies overall) to the activity of that yellow dwarf star at the center of our solar system..


In the meantime my spouse informs me that on Wednesday of the past week she had to turn the heat on when she arose from her slumbers.... the temperature was 54F....
I, of course, was frolicking in Las Vegas so I missed the cool air..

Worse than all of this, our intrepid writers of the AP note with, if not approval, satisfied acceptance.

Each period also was followed by a change in the party controlling the White House.

...

Never mind that their views of their current leaders are near rock bottom, reflecting a frustration with Washington's inability to solve anything. President Bush barely gets the approval of three in 10 people, and it's even worse for the Democratic-led Congress.

Why the vulnerability? After all, this is the 21st century, not a more primitive past when little in life was assured. Surely people know how to fix problems now.


It is vulnerable because the reporters who supposedly report instead are cheer leading Hussein 57. A man whose solutions are straight out of the late 60's and early 70's. They didn't work then and they won't work now.

And the press is so lacking in historical knowledge they can't even compare. And those old enough to remember what happened are so bound to the Left that they think their man can "get it right this time."

That he is nothing more than a typical Chicago machine politician totally escapes them.
