My impassioned pleading

to Pope Algore has worked. He has released the spirits of global warming and this morning we had a warm 50 degrees at 8 AM. A grateful nation thanks him. My bank account thanks him. The utility company has issued an all points bulletin for his arrest.

But the heretics continue their denial, giving us this to consider.

Back in 1991, before Al Gore first shouted that the Earth was in the balance, the Danish Meteorological Institute released a study using data that went back centuries that showed that global temperatures closely tracked solar cycles.

I mean really? The sun’s out put effects the temperature of the Earth? How gauche and out of style can you be?? But worse was written. Close the door and make sure no children read this:

Solar activity fluctuates in an 11-year cycle. But so far in this cycle, the sun has been disturbingly quiet. The lack of increased activity could signal the beginning of what is known as a Maunder Minimum, an event which occurs every couple of centuries and can last as long as a century.
Such an event occurred in the 17th century. The observation of sunspots showed extraordinarily low levels of magnetism on the sun, with little or no 11-year cycle.
This solar hibernation corresponded with a period of bitter cold that began around 1650 and lasted, with intermittent spikes of warming, until 1715. Frigid winters and cold summers during that period led to massive crop failures, famine and death in Northern Europe.

Repeat after me. Pay no attention to these actual records and known facts. Projections and computer models are always more accurate.

Onward to the politics of the hopeful.

I read somewhere yesterday that Republicans are being urged to cross party lines in the Texas Demo primary and vote for Hussein. The claim is that is, at last, the chance to drive a stake through the Billarypire’s heart and dispatch her for ever… subject that is, to a rerun in 2012..

How anyone with Hillary’s negatives, more than 50% claim to dislike her, could expect to win is beyond me. Even more beyond me is why the Hillary haters want to beat her in a primary by voting for a politician that has become a pop icon that is beloved by the Left and about which the harshest thing that can be said about is that he is vacant of any thought beyond, “Hussein want to be President.” Telling his fans that he knows nothing is an exercise in futility. Remember. All of them believe in man made global warming. Need I say more?

Me? I would rather face an opponent in the GE that has the aforementioned 50 plus percent negatives. But that’s just ole logical me.

Well, this settles it for me

BURLINGTON, Vt. (Feb. 18) -- The founders of Ben & Jerry's endorsed Barack Obama on Monday, and lent his Vermont campaign two "ObamaMobiles" that will tour the state and give away scoops of "Cherries for Change" ice cream.

Yes sir, that does it. No doubt.

"What we saw is that when you want real change it's not a marketing slogan. You have to do things differently. And that is not going to be done by someone who's been involved in the system for years and years," Greenfield said. "It needs to come from inside and Barack Obama has it."

What the above paragraph means is known only to Hussein fanatics. I mean if it can't come from someone who has been involved in the system yet it must come from inside.... well, I guess Ben and Jerry can explain how they came to Hussein.

Of course I don't think Hussein has ever had a job outside of politics...

Take off

It was spitting snow earlier this morning, so I must assume that Pope Algore of the Church of Global Warming remains in hiding. Whether or not this means his members have grown restless due to his inability to deliver is not known. But one can hope, as Hussein would say.

Speaking of the Man Who Would Save Us, I note this comment from a column from Froma Harrop.

Volunteer trainees at Camp Obama are told not to talk issues with voters, but to offer personal testimony about how they "came" to Obama. Makes the skin crawl

Yes, it does make the skin crawl. They edge closer to a theocracy every day.

And to make it complete, Hussein’s wife has noted:

“For the first time in my adult life, I am proud of my country,” she told a Milwauke crowd today, “because it feels like hope is making a comeback.”

Evidently she has been living in a cave. Or else she is so self centered that anything that doesn’t advance her position has no value.

After considering the lack of caves in Chicago and DC I believe it is the “me me” syndrome shining through.

Unbelievers and what to do about them.

A classmate has sent me an email in which a person named Kathy Griffin made some outlandish comments and my classmate noted that she would not support/view, etc., events in which she appeared.

To be honest I had never heard of Kathy Griffin, but her comments piqued my interest on several levels, so I Googled her up and found this:

LOS ANGELES — Before Kathy Griffin won a creative arts Emmy last weekend for her reality show….

In her speech, Griffin said that "a lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this award. I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus." She went on to hold up her Emmy, make an off-color remark about Christ and proclaim, "This award is my god now!"

It always intrigues me when someone who obviously depends on the public for whatever successes that may enjoy does something any intelligent person would know would anger a large chunk of that public.

Now if you assume that Ms Griffin is not dumber than a door knob then you come to two conclusions.

A. She doesn’t care because you are wrong and she really is dumb.

B. She doesn’t care because she knows that such statements will actually help her career among those who watch her show.

I pick door “B.” Simply put there are a large number of people in this country who are ignorant as to what Christianity is all about, and what Christianity has accomplished. To them nasty comments about Christianity is proof of the commentators’ sophisticated view of the world and her disdain of the dummies who get up, go to work every day and try to maintain a small amount of decorum and respect in the world. Her fans are the rightful heirs to the “Barbarians at the Gate” that destroyed Rome and launched the world into the Dark Ages. Without them Ms. Griffin would not exist in her present state.

So I do not blame her, I place the blame on those who created and sustained her. The answer is just as my classmate said. Don’t watch. Don’t buy. Flip the channel. The marketplace is the answer.

As to her statements, someone should sit her down and explain to her that she can say such things because our country is unique in the world because our rights are God given, not by man. Without that belief then our rights are not protected, and depend on man rather than God. Such beliefs have universally proved to be founded on sand and wash away at the first sign of flood.

As to the correctness of her statements, time will give her a clearer understanding.

Delegates at a US-Islamic forum voiced support on Monday for US presidential hopeful Barack Obama,

Where else did they have to go?

Hillary is a female, so she's out.

McCain sang.. "Bomb bomb bomb... bomb bomb Iran...well, that kind of blows him out of the picture

And then we have the name... Barack Hussien Obama.

Who do you think would win?

Pope Algore continues to withhold

the blessings of his Global Warming and this morning is frosty despite my driving my truck an insane amount over the weekend. Perhaps the evil GW doubters have secretly found a way to thwart the effects of the nasty carbon dioxide.

More likely, of course, is that the sun continues on its natural cycle of reduced output. But don’t tell the UN officials in charge of wasting our money or the Weather Channel lady. The former have no idea of what is going on and the latter knows everything, but has no idea of what is causing it.

On the national front we are told that the Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor, Zbig Brzezinski did not visit Israel as advertised, but instead returned to the US. No reason is known, but some think he was recalled by Hussein when he decided that he should wait until he is President before asking Israel to surrender to Syria.

If so that was a wise move. Israel’s answer will most likely be unprintable. Now and then.

In news of no particular importance we find that the NBA’s team in Seattle is making news by threatening to move to Oklahoma City if the citizens don’t build them a suitable home. The citizens, to my surprise, are saying, “No, and have a nice trip.”

I say “to my surprise” because, when I lived there in the mid eighties, I found the locals to be tough, level headed hard working people. But in recent years it appeared that enough Californians had moved in to dilute the commonsense factor to a very low level. Perhaps the price reductions of $1,000,000 homes to $900,000 homes has seized their attention.

As to the good people of Oklahoma City, that hand you feel on your wallet has a basketball in the other.
