Jones defines the man made global warming hoax

I don't want to forget this because to me it is Phil Jones of the CRU and the infamous emails of Climategate in totality. Nothing else needs to be said.

Another Jones' e-mail read, "I would like to see the climate change happen so the science could be proved right."


Think about that statement. "I would like to see climate change happen..."

That statement is just so terrible on many levels. First, this is a man who claims that climate change is happening around us.

Indeed so fast that we must not hesitate or put down the cup but drink the kool aid immediately. Yet in the privacy of what he thought would always be a confidential email he says...."I would like to see climate change happen..."

That means that he knows that his claims are incorrect.

But even worse, just think. Man made global warming is supposed to unleash floods and droughts and death and destruction... Yet he says, "I would like to see climate change happen..."

That is just plain evil. Not just dishonest, but evil.

And what is the reason for this wish? What is the motive?

".....so the science could be proved right."

But wait. Jones and the other hoaxers claim consensus that the science is settled. That the science is "right."

But again in what he thinks is a private conversation he admits that it hasn't been proven because if it had, he could not be wishing.

Whatever you do dear chums, remember Jones' statement. You need no other argument for shutting down the fear mongers and hoaxers.

The question


Christmas is almost upon us and I have seen the usual amount of ACLUites demanding that it not be celebrated.

And one of the more interesting arguments is that we don't know when Christ was born and that there is all kinds of evidence that it was not during the winter.

Fair enough.

But isn't the real question, why should we care? Isn't the real point that He was born and that alone should be cause for celebration?

Does the date matter? What if we picked August 17? May 8? Isn't the real celebration that his birth brought us to this point where hanging of gays and stoning of women and forced marriages and genital mutilation and slavery is condemned and still practiced only by a small group of Muslim extremists and radicals?

I say it does not matter except to the extent that the attacks on it are meant to weaken our society. That some may be ignorant of what they do forgives them only to the extent that stupidity and ignorance is forgiven. That some are Fellow Travelers to the Muslim radicals as some were Fellow Travelers to the Soviets is obvious. The objective. To stifle the critics of the religious practices of the Taliban and al Qaeda. The point of all of the actions we see in opposition to celebrating Christmas is to claim that everything is equal.

And if all is equal then why should we oppose radical Islamic believers? Can't we all just get along?

That is the question. The real question.

I say no. We can't get along with those who seek to enslave us, be they Muslim radicals or man made global warming hoaxers. The timing to the end is different but the result is the same.

Global Cooling


This [cooling] trend will reduce agricultural productivity for the rest of the century.

—Peter Gwynne, Newsweek 1976

There are ominous signs that the earth’s weather patterns have begun to change dramatically and that these changes may portend a drastic decline in food production—with serious political implications for just about every nation on earth. The drop in food production could begin quite soon… The evidence in support of these predictions has now begun to accumulate so massively that meteorologist are hard-pressed to keep up with it.

—Newsweek, April 28, (1975)

This cooling has already killed hundreds of thousands of people. If it continues and no strong action is taken, it will cause world famine, world chaos and world war, and this could all come about before the year 2000.

—Lowell Ponte in “The Cooling”, 1976

If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder by the year 2000. … This is about twice what it would take to put us in an ice age.

—Kenneth E.F. Watt


All of the above came from the same type of person who now wants to sell you man made global warming.

Boeing 787 Dreamliner



Boeing's 787 Dreamliner made its first flight today, almost exactly 106 years after Orville and Wilbur made the first powered flight. And at least it did not act like the first beast did:

When out about the same distance as Will's, I met with a strong gust from the left which raised the left wing and sidled the machine off to the right in a lively manner. I immediately turned the rudder to bring the machine down and then worked the end control. Much to our surprise, on reaching the ground the left wing struck first, showing the lateral control of this machine much more effective than on any of our former ones. At the time of its sidling it had raised to a height of probably 12 to 14 feet.


Link

Translated to English that means: The wind was gusting from the left and I over corrected causing the left wing to drag before the wheels, skids in this case, were on the ground.

Luck was with them because it didn't cartwheel and break up as would be expected. Probably because it was so low and under powered there wasn't enough force to flip it.

Anyway, I got to thinking about all the commercial jets I have flown on...

777, 767, 757, 747, 737, 727, 707...DC10, DC9, DC8, MD80, MD11, L1011, Convair 880, BAC111, Canadair CRJ, A320, Caravelle and a Soviet TU something or other.

Then there were the props, both prop-jets and recips.... DC3, DC4, Martin 404, Martin 202, Lockheed Electra. YS11A, F27 and a prop jet flown by Southern called, I believe, the Metro Liner... yeah Fairchild Metro Liner...and one flight on a Beechcraft.

My favorite jet is any jet that I am seated in First Class. My favorite otherwise is the 727. Grab the next to the last row on the left (facing forward) and you will be in an exit row with about 10 feet of space in front of you, the galley on your right from which you use to be able to mooch goodies and booze from the Flight Attendants.

The 727 also has the distinction of being the fastest commercial jet and I have heard actually survived being flipped over on its back at around 40,000 feet. The company was United and the pilot pushed the nose over and did a barrel roll. He managed to pull it out before it hit the ground or the wings fell off. A nifty bit of flying and proof that the 727 is one tough cookie.

The airframe was not damaged but the cleaning bill was several thousand dollars.

From the late 60's til the early 80's Delta had the best service of any airline. Period. Have a problem? If man could fix it they would do so. But finally the stress of low fares, mergers and assorted stuff turned them into just another airline.

United treated me well, average and poorly. Some of my fondest and hateful memories center around United flights and customer service. But all in all I have to give them a B+. Since I flew them heavily, almost two million miles, through the ups and downs of the 80's, 90's and early 00's then some of that shouldn't have been unexpected.

Southern had all single class of service. They ran an ad that said everyone was first class on Southern. That naturally was changed to no one is first class.. But actually they were a good airline. Served a lot of places with DC 9's that now can't attract a Canadair and if many of their pilots were ex-bush pilots, so what? When Southern was purchased by North Central they just moved on to Air Alaska.

But my favorite expression about an airline remains Ozark. Of which it was said that if things went bad, "They'll give you a ho cake and a glass of buttermilk."

Who could want more?

More Democrats than Repubs believe in ghosts...No surprise there...after all... they also believe in global warming


A new study by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life reveals some startling differences between Republicans and Democrats on issues of spirituality and supernatural phenomenon.

The study, "Many Americans Mix Multiple Faiths," reports that a significant number of Americans practice a mixture of religious beliefs, and "many also blend Christianity with Eastern or New Age beliefs such as reincarnation, astrology and the presence of spiritual energy in physical objects." The report is not specifically about partisan differences, but the results of the study are broken down by party affiliation, among many other categories. And the news on that front is that Democrats are far more likely to believe in supernatural phenomenon than Republicans.

"Conservatives and Republicans report fewer experiences than liberals or Democrats communicating with the dead, seeing ghosts and consulting fortunetellers or psychics," the Pew study says. For example, 21 percent of Republicans report that they have been in touch with someone who is dead, while 36 percent of Democrats say they have done so. Eleven percent of Republicans say they have seen a ghost, while 21 percent of Democrats say so. And nine percent of Republicans say they have consulted a fortuneteller, while 22 percent of Democrats have.

They were young hippies and they knew just what to do

This says it all.


This is an old Chicago Tribune cartoon that was just so right. It just took 30 years or so to come true.

(Click on the pic to enlarge it.)

The pinkies grew up and became teachers and administrators and birthed Obamie The Bower.

Our country is just so humped!

Hat tip to wtucker111 for the cartoon.

Barbara Boxer is a US Senator


So you would think she is at least somewhat intelligent. She is also is a Leftie Democrat.

Do I need to say more?

WASHINGTON — As abortion took center stage in the Senate's historic debate over health care reform, Sen. Barbara Boxer was right in the middle of the fight, comparing an effort to limit women's access to abortion to restricting men's access to Viagra.

Her combative stance on the issue was a familiar one for the third-term Democrat, whose support of abortion rights has been central to her political career.

"Why are women being singled out here? It's so unfair," Boxer said on the Senate floor Tuesday. "We don't tell men that if they want to ... buy insurance coverage through their pharmaceutical plan for Viagra that they can't do it."

That is absolutely one of the most stupid statements I have ever read.

The issues aren't even related yet she tries to connect them.

Uh Barb.... One has to do with doing. The other has to do with undoing.
