Hal Lewis of UCSB clocks the Warmists and their corruption of Physics.

Fling Faster With More Accuracy, Please

Around here we're always trying to stay one step ahead of the Dart-Throwin' monkey.

But, it looks like we're falling further behind.

They'll Be Begging For A Bailout Soon

Chasing the unicorn over the rainbow is expensive.

In LA power bills will go up nearly 30% because the mayor decreed that 20% of the city's power must come from solar and wind.

Good luck.

Pushing Back Against Junk Science

The state of Texas is preparing a suit against the EPA.
Now if a few dozen others will join them...

What's Wrong With That Guy?

Friday we pointed to the story that the guy who records those "Osama bin Laden" tapes has gone back to knockin' the Bush administration for not stopping Global Climate Change (TM). We love that story. If Vince Flynn put that in one of his Mitch Rapp books his editor would probably send the galley proof back with "implausible" blue penciled in the margin.

But equally out-to-lunch is our senior Senator, Lindsey Graham. So desperate is Graham to have bipartisanship reign supreme in DC that he's still promoting the "energy" bill he's slopping together with Kerry and Lieberman. Warmism has always been a hoax. But I will allow that there were lots of people duped and not all of them were dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks. You would think now though, post-Climategate, that even clowns like Lindsey G. would quietly slink away from this fraud. Instead we get this:

"We tried immigration. It's hard. And we failed. We tried Social Security. It's hard. And we failed. We tried health care. It's really hard. And it looks like we're going to have to start over again," Graham somberly told a luncheon audience of energy and climate advocates on the Hill. "On the energy, climate change front, I don't want to add that to the list. There is no reason in my mind that the Republican Party and the Democratic Party can't come together."


So it doesn't matter how bad it is as legislation... how much damage it will do... that it's based on junk science promoted shamelessly by hucksters in lab coats... what matters is that the US Congress gets a "win".

When I hear "bipartisan" I grab for my wallet. If there had been even one Republican to sign on to Obamacare we would have gotten a $2 Trillion plus monstrosity. That's how expensive bipartisanship can be. As the wise man said, "The public is never safe any day Congress is in session."

Good Grief

Tim Blair passes this stupefying comment along from Australia.

It is interesting to see that people who are outraged by Pat Robertson have nothing much to say about Danny Glover. Personally, I don't think either one is correct-- but Glover was pretty good in "Lonesome Dove".

Coming Undone

In case anyone thought that Warmism wasn't a secular religion... here's how the designated jaw-jacker at 1600 Penn. Ave. reacts to the fact that 31,000 credentialed scientists are skeptical about man made climate change.

I had a dream last night where Senator Inhofe was chairing hearings into the perpetrators of the global warming hoax. It's just a dream, but billions of dollars and thousands of jobs have already been lost because of this junk science.

Thanksgiving

Be thankful for this... the hoax of man made climate change has been exposed.

The end of this destructive scam? Now that's the kind of hope and change I can get behind.

Warmists Nervous

I guess it was pretty easy for Democrats to rant and rave about global warming (AKA: climate change) when they knew they wouldn't have to vote for an enormous tax to combat it.

But now, as San Fran Nan rushes a 1,200+ page (unread) bill to the floor that taxes the beejeebers out of Americans to battle an imagined problem, many D's are getting cold feet.

In fact, the cold feet are so numerous they might even be partially responsible for the decade or so of global cooling that we've been experiencing.

Why do some, like the guy pictured here, still cling to the hoax? Follow the money.

Cashing in on Warmism

The voter fraud/ community organizing group ACORN is getting in on the riches available through Warmism. The great thing about Warmism is that it's a religion that can pay off in billions of dollars for those on board. (See: Al Gore, Kleiner Perkins, GE et al.)

Now add ACORN to the list of those lining up at the carbon tax trough. Makes sense: fraud artists using the biggest hoax in human history to get rich.

My Carbon Footprints Are Tired

It's pouring down rain and I have to spend the next five hours making a roundtrip drive. Thankfully there's this guy to make me feel better about my carbon footprint.

Don't All Move At Once

This article from USA Today says that about half the people in the country want to move away from where they live and about half don't. Pretty Earth shattering stuff! 50/50. Mediocre. Average.

When I saw the headline my first thought was, "now that the New Socialists are in full control I want to move to a beachfront shack in Belize." But they were really asking about people's desire to move around inside the United States. Well, in that regard, I live exactly where I want to live-- and it doesn't look like this:

Disconnect

In Fayetteville, AR the citizenry has resorted to placing their Chevy SUV's directly under ice-laden trees in an attempt to quickly make the earth warmer.

Meanwhile in the fantasyland of Washington DC the high priest of Warmism, a former hack politician named Gore, told rapt Democrats that it might be too late-- the world may already be too hot.

Here at Monkeydarts Plantation we wonder how freakin' cold it would be this winter if we hadn't been driving all of those SUV's and pick-ups. 50 below zero? 60 below zero?

More Global Warming Please

It is so cold in Alaska that planes can't fly. They have a thing called ice fog-- the air gets so cold that fog freezes in the air.

Meanwhile in Europe Czar Putin is taking the opportunity of extremely cold weather to cut off natural gas to The Ukraine. Having done that they also blame The Ukraine for the problem as it spills over into the nations in "Old Europe". Not coincidentally those countries will decide who gets into their EU club.

And, throughout all of this, we await the inauguration of Lord Obama who has at the top of his stack a Green Agenda to halt Global Warming. And make the oceans recede or some such.

My question to the Lord and his minions and handmaidens, "How much colder would it be this winter around the globe if we hadn't been driving SUV's the past 30 years? Would it be 50 below instead of 25 below? Do tell, please."

I sometimes wonder if some of the enviro-Marxists ever admit to themselves how full of it they are. Maybe they're just totally dishonest.

Global Warming Causing Record Cold Weather

Now that Lord Obama has assembled his radical green team at energy and interior, it appears Mother Earth is trembling in fear. She's trying to fool us into believing there's no such thing as Global Warming by making it snow in Malibu and Las Vegas. Snow on The Strip in LV? Nice try, lady. We know that Global Warming is a huge threat. Heck, Al Gore got some awards from leftists for warning us so it must be true.

Looks like the famous Vegas Showgirls are being replaced with Snowgirls. (Sorry.)

Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cow Taxers

As Lord O assembles his radical leftist team at energy, the EPA, and elsewhere in his government a question comes to mind.

How many people who voted for him thought that he would try to tax cow farts?

Global Warming Grips The USA

The same week that Lord Obama tipped his hand that the radical greens will be running his energy department (instead of people who know anything about energy exploration) it snows in New Orleans. You can look at this many ways I suppose. Coincidence? Maybe God has a sense of humor? Maybe He is trying to send the Petrophobes and Al Gore followers a powerful (unheeded) message?

Or... hell is freezing over.

Red Star Rising

Over the weekend Pope Gore of the Church of Warmism attended a convention of leftists in Austin, TX. This photo was taken of the former Veep and failed presidential candidate leading the congregation in a prayer to the Red Star. Apparently the big Red Star has something to do with Warmism but I'll let someone else figure it out.

On Thursday July 17, 2008 Pope Gore gave a speech to a group back east in the District of Columbia. He urged his disciples to "please use public transit, bicycling or other climate-friendly means" to reach the lecture hall. Gore and his entourage, meanwhile, showed up in two Lincoln Town Cars and a full-sized SUV that sat idling with the air conditioners blasting during the speech.

Oh, look, The Americans for Prosperity interviewed some of the acolytes as they arrived. Plus the Pope's limo driver. This is fun.
