Mom Says Ted Cruz Did Not Terrify Her Little Girl

Ted Cruz is not actually Satan
March 16, 2015 - The leftwing blogosphere and minor media outlets are again portraying US Senator Ted Cruz as a mean and hateful person. He's not just mean, according to their narrative, but a cruel and sadistic man who terrifies young children.

Cruz spoke while standing before a casual audience at a free "chili and chat" event with the Strafford County Republican Committee in Barrington, New Hampshire yesterday. He said that "the world's on fire," a remark not meant literally but as a reference to the conflicts around the globe. It set off a firestorm of liberal idiocy.

That remark accidentally became a lighthearted moment in which Cruz showed tenderness toward a curious young child. But that moment has been twisted into something monstrous by crazed left wing bloggers. My favorite example of the leftist truth twisting is an innaccurate piece of garbage written by an attractive blond imbecile named Jessica K. Roy at New York Magazine:

Mommy, why is that mean man yelling at me? a 3-year-old named Julie Trant must have thought to herself on Sunday afternoon, when her parents brought her to a Ted Cruz speech in Barrington, New Hampshire. Forced to sit scarily close to the spittle-spewing angry monster posing as a junior senator from Texas, Julie was understandably confused and scared when Cruz told the crowd, "The whole world is on fire."

That paragraph is a steaming pile of untruth. To begin with, Cruz was not yelling at anybody when he said, "The Obama economy is a disaster, Obamacare is a train wreck and the Obama-Clinton foreign policy of leading from behind — the whole world is on fire." Off to his left, 3-yr. old Julie sat with her parents and listened attentively. Curious, Julie piped up and asked, "The world is on fire?"

Note To Rush Limbaugh: The Polar Vortex Is Real

Rush Limbaugh
January 6, 2013 - I'm a fan of Rush Limbaugh, but he is dead wrong about the polar vortex that's freezing most of the United States this week. More specifically, he is wrong about how and why the media are discussing the polar vortex.

Limbaugh told listeners today that the polar vortex is being used by the Left to help convince us that the record cold temps do not negate global warming. That may be so; I would not put it beyond them. But there is a problem with the way Limbaugh said this, which I'll get to in a moment.

"Limbaugh opened his program after a long holiday hiatus with a screed against the media," noted Conservative Infidel, "telling listeners that cable network weather reports are obviously designed to promote the idea of man-made climate change."

Global Warming! Jerusalem Hit by Heaviest Snowstorm in 20 Years

Jan. 11, 2013 - Oy vay, that "global warming" sure is chilly! In these videos, we get a look at one of the heaviest snowstorms in 20 years, virtually shutting down the city of Jerusalem, Israel. The city was blanketed in white on Wednesday, January 9, 2013. See, that's how global warming works: It also makes it colder. Confused? Yes, so are the global warmists.


German Expert Debunks Global Warming

Fritz Vahrenholt (Photo: RWE)
February 8, 2012 - One of the fathers of Germany's green movement has gone very public abopt his global warming skepticism. German media are in frenzy over this. 


His name: Fritz Vahrenholt.

This is big news. Vahrenholt is widely regarded as an environmental activist. He is currently the head of RWE Innogy, one of Germany's leading "green" energy corporations.

"The Cold Sun"
The Bild article on February 7 had the provocative headline, "The CO2 Lies: Renowned team of scientists claim the climate catastrophe is fear-mongering by politics" ("Die CO2-Lüge: Renommiertes Forscher-Team Behauptet: Die Klima-Katastrophe Ist Panik-Mache Der Politik").

Vahrenholt was interviewed by Spiegel (Spiegel Online) in a February 8 article called "Breaking Global Warming Taboos: 'I Feel Duped on Climate Change'." Vahrenholt spoke about "The Cold Sun" ("Die kalte Sonne"), his new book. "The Cold Sun" just might help millions of children worldwide who have unnecessary nightmares thanks to Al Gore's frightful lies about climate catastrophe.

Global Warming? Nope, Says NASA

January 29, 2012 - A great report at Mail Online (dailymail.co.uk) says that "The supposed ‘consensus’ on man-made global warming is facing an inconvenient challenge after the release of new temperature data showing the planet has not warmed for the past 15 years.

Stunning! "The figures suggest that we could even be heading for a mini ice age," Mail Online says, "to rival the 70-year temperature drop that saw frost fairs held on the Thames in the 17th Century." 

English: Al Gore's Hearing on Global WarmingHuxter Al Gore. Image via WikipediaOh my. To make it worse for the global warming sheeple, this news comes to us not from a radical group of nutty "deniers" -- it comes from NASA and other respectable sources.

Mail Online continues: "Analysis by experts at NASA and the University of Arizona – derived from magnetic-field measurements 120,000 miles beneath the sun’s surface – suggest that Cycle 25, whose peak is due in 2022, will be a great deal weaker still." 

This is sad and bad news for those who have been telling us that the world will end by frying and/or boiling due to man-made global warming. The Mail Online report effectively tells us that Al Gore is a liar (as so many of us have always known).

I must point out that the Daily Mail did not actually call Gore a liar. The reality of the reports, however, do that by proving Gore is a hoaxster and a huckster.

At the very least, the fact that reputable scientists dispute the theory of global warming (that's "theory") brings the lie to claims by the likes of Al Gore when they say that the "science is settled" because of "consensus" among those who believe in Gore's hysterics. The practice of science by consensus is antithetical to the scientific method itself.

"Sadly for Gore et al," wrote Matt Patterson at globalwarming.org recently, "a growing number of scientists are publically expressing skepticism about anthropogenic global warming, emboldened by a flood of new data that casts doubt on the whole “climate change” paradigm."

Green Liberals at UW-Madison Should Turn Off Air Conditioners

July 20, 2011 - Madison, WI - Wisconsin's capitol city and liberal haven is broiling in a major heat wave this week, along with much of the United States. As would be expected, this has raised the demand for electricity, mostly due to increased use of air conditioning systems. The University of Wisconsin-Madison is having an especially hard time. As reported by WISC-TV in Madison, "About 40 buildings across the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus continue to be affected by air conditioning problems on Tuesday after failures at several power plants." A UW official, says WISC, said that "as air-conditioning demand continues to outpace supply. Update, July 21, 2011: New All-time Record for Power Demand - WMTV (The liberals just can't live without their a/c! What, you think all the power demand is from evil Republicans?) The Journal-Sentinel Online has a story yesterday about record power usage in Madison. Imagine all those uber liberals cranking up their air conditioners. Do you think they slept better in drier, cooler air? Or did they lose sleep because they felt guilty about contributing to global warming? There's a sweet irony to all of this increased sweating on the UW campus. The vast majority of those sweating, I'm willing to bet, are liberals who devoutly believe in Al Gore's discredited doctrine of Global Warming. Ergo, they are the type of people who for years have been lecturing us about "going green" and using less electricity. This includes not only students, but much of the faculty and staff. They're all sweating this week, and they're all hypocritically wishing that the university can quickly restore the air conditioning on campus. I say, Let them sweat. Give them the chance to live without hypocrisy and in swelting heat. It's only natural, isn't it? And isn't being as close to nature as possible a big part of being "green?" You betcha. The University of Wisconsin should just turn off the entire cooling system. Seriously: Think about how un-green it is to run a gargantuan cooling system for nearly a hundred buildings on a 40,000 student campus. Some of the people I hope are sweating the most are the "climate change/global warming" media experts employed by UW-Madison. You can see them by clicking here. The ones I want to really sweat the most, however, are the global warming freaks at greenscene.journalism.wisc.edu and the Al Gore drones over at conserve.wisc.edu. You just know they're all maxing out their a/c this week, even as they plan new ways to tell us how naughty we are for still using incandescent light bulbs. Perhaps I should be a little easier on the University of Wisconsin-Madison. After all, they're not exactly the greenest school around. "Despite accolades for three other University of Wisconsin campuses," reported the Badger-Herald, "UW-Madison was not included in a list of the country’s top green college campuses according to a Princeton Review report" that was released in April, 2010. "Although the list included Wisconsin institutions such as UW-Oshkosh, UW-Milwaukee and UW-Stevens Point, UW was not among the top 286 chosen for the guide to display." This just tells me that despite their preaching and posing, the UW-Madison leadership does not practice the green ways that it preaches. Turn up the heat, then, and let 'em sweat. Full disclosure: I am an alumnus of the UW-Madison (B.A. Journalims, 1977). I am also a conservative who believes that the Sun is hot and can actually affect Earth's temperatures.

Humungous Ice Island Breaks From Greenland (But Don't Be Too Quick To Blame Global Warming)

Reuters reports that an "ice island four times the size of Manhattan broke off from one of Greenland's two main glaciers, scientists said on Friday, in the biggest such event in the Arctic in nearly 50 years." The ice island has been named "Petermann Ice Island." The knee-jerk reaction by many will be to blame global warming. But hold on. Reuters goes on to give us this caveat (my emphasis added):
"The freshwater stored in this ice island could keep the Delaware or Hudson Rivers flowing for more than two years," said Muenchow, whose research in the area is supported by the National Science Foundation.... He said it was hard to judge whether the event occurred due to global warming because records on the sea water around the glacier have only been kept since 2003. The flow of sea water below the glaciers is one of the main causes of ice calvings off Greenland. "Nobody can claim this was caused by global warming. On the other hand nobody can claim that it wasn't," Muenchow said.
So there. Maybe it's global warming, maybe not. Muenchow, a top scientist, admits that nobody can really know for certain if global warming is a factor in the ice island breaking off of Greenland. Contrary to what Al Gore preaches, the science of all of this is not over. Inquiry - and open minds - must prevail. Environmentalists area already having spasms, however, as their knees jerk uncontrollably. The New American notes this with some humor, but gives a serious explanation of just why it's foolish to rush to the conclusion that global warming is the cause of this calving of the ice: ...calving is not the same as melting. Calving happens when a section of ice breaks off a glacier, iceberg, or ice shelf, which may have nothing to do with melting. Obama's chief science advisor, John Holdren, described calving caused by too much ice in a 1971 essay warning of the dangers of a coming ice age: "Even more dramatic results are possible, however; for instance, a sudden outward slumping of the Antarctic ice cap, induced by added weight, could generate a tidal wave of proportions unprecedented in recorded history." Admittedly, such an outlandish prediction does undermine Holdren's credibility, but it is true that calving is just as likely to be caused by buildup of ice as by melting. In the case of the Petermann Glacier, it is more likely because the Greenland ice sheet increased by two inches per year from 1993 through 2003, and "radar stations in northern Greenland are rapidly being surrounded by the growing ice sheet," reports [Science and Public Policy Institute] (SPPI). - The New American... The New American also reports that, “...even though the Petermann Glacier calving can hardly be classified as a threat to the environment or a portent of impending disaster, depend upon major media to warn otherwise. Just remember, Greenland didn't get its name by being covered with ice as it is today. And as SPPI noted, 'the Greenland ice sheet was entirely absent 850,000 years ago: therefore, even if Greenland's ice were to melt, its disappearance would be entirely within the natural variability of the climate'."

Interstellar Energy Cloud + Sun = Uh Oh!

Updated, July 15, 2010: Global warming? Yes, yes, but you should be more concerned with our increasingly active Sun and - get this - the interstellar energy cloud that we are about to enter. Also See: Solar Storm Hitting Earth Now! There's a big hot thing up in the sky called "the Sun." It's very hot, and it heats up our little planet. It heats up Mars and Venus and Mercury, too, and studies have shown that - sit down - Mars is experiencing global warming. It's not SUV exhaust and chloroflourocarbons traveling from Los Angeles to Mars. It's the Sun. It's hot, it's cold. It's cold because it's hot, Al Gore tells us, because the New Priests of the New Age have told us so. And you dare not dispute them, lest ye be excommunicated. More than any other influence, however, the sun stirs up the world's climate, and the sun has been showing signs of acting up lately. Scientists are concerned that the 11-year cycle that the sun has just entered may produce some annoying - if not catastrophic - solar hijinx. If we're lucky, the potential flares won't cause mass extinction... but they might knock out power and satellites. The result? If powerful enough, the flares could cause a rapid chain of events that could throw the entire world into an economic depression. Techologically, it might suddenly be like living in 1890. You know: Martial law, mass starvation and societal collapse. The National Academy of Sciences warns us of the potential for danger in its "Severe Space Weather Events" report, which notes that powerful solar flares could blast the earth with radiation. That, they say, could seriously mess up our power, water and communications worldwide. "It's very likely in the next 10 years that we will have some impact like that described in the National Academy report," Dr. Richard Fisher, director of NASA's heliophysics division, told the New York Daily News in June, 2010. "Although I don't know to what degree. Fisher explained that the sun works on an 11-year cycle, and is now emerging from its quiet period." About that interstellar energy cloud... Lawrence E. Joseph has "written on science, nature, politics and business on five continents for publications including The New York Times (Magazine, Op-Ed), Discover, Salon.com, and has also authored a number of books," his bio states.
In his book "Apocolypse 2012," Joseph wrote this about both the Sun's activity and the interstellar energy cloud: Since the 1940’s, and particularly, since 2003, the Sun has behaved more tumultuously than any time since the rapid global warming that accompanied the melting of the last Ice Age. Solar physicists concur that solar activity will next peak, at record-setting levels, in 2012.... Russian geophysicists believe that the Solar System has entered an interstellar energy cloud. This cloud is energizing and destabilizing the Sun and all the planets’ atmospheres. Their predictions for catastrophe resulting from the Earth’s encounter with this energy cloud range from 2010 to 2020. (Source) Sounds like fun, right? 2012 is now less than 18 months away, so you still have time to stock up on survival equipment and freeze-dried food items. Joseph is also Chairman of the Board of Aerospace Consulting Corporation (AC2), a plasma physics company based in Albuquerque, New Mexico corporation, which works with Sandia National Laboratories. AC2 is developing the Vulcan Plasma Disintegrator, "an ultra-high temperature (10,000 to 15,000 degrees K) furnace designed to completely dissociate highly toxic biological and chemical wastes, leaving no toxic residue." In other words, nothing survives it. Don't worry too much about the Sun frying the planet. The Vulcan Plasma Disintegrator sounds a lot more dangerous. Of course, a strong solar flare could knock out all of the power to the VPD. For more information, visit Joseph's website.

The Green Police Are Already Here

Audi's Super Bowl commercial (see it below) was not only funny, it's frighteningly accurate as a look into the future of American freedoms - and the lessening thereof. The ad pokes fun at "green laws," and shows people being arrested by Eco Fascists for doing things deemed environmentally irresponsible. The scenes in the ad, however, are really not so exaggerated. As reported here in December of 2007, Congress passed a law that will force us all to replace the incandescent bulb with the compact fluorescent lightbulb (CFL), requiring that traditional bulbs be phased out by 2020. You got that? It will be illegal to use a normal, incandescent light bulb. The new CFLs contain mercury, and dropping one literally creates a hazmat situation. Watch the video, then we'll continue.... Environmentalists show their true colors in the case of CFL bulbs. Many of the environmental laws are more about control of people than about protection of the environment, and the environmentalists unwittingly admit this. An example of this comes from "Indranil M." in an article he wrote at Gather.com (emphasis added): "Though these CFL bulbs contain mercury and are Hazardous to the environment, because of which they also happen to be non-Biodegradable. But there is no need to worry. There are web sites like energy star and earth911 which will give you proper instructions for its disposal without harming the environment." "No need to worry?" Nah! When that CFL burns out, just seek out the complicated instructions for disposal, and be sure to follow them lest you pose a health risk to yourself. Read what the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) advises if if a mercury-containing light bulb breaks. It's laughable. Compare that to tossing the harmless incandescent bulbs into your trash bin and forgetting about it. How can environmentalists and their Liberal sympathizers justify this as a move to protect the environment? Well, they can't really, not logically.

U.N. Admits Glacier Melting Based on Bad Science

I'm getting tired of repeating myself: The Global Warming freaks are wrong, wrong, wrong and the evidence just keeps coming out to prove it. The panic over glacier melting, for example, which has people losing sleep over the fate of the Himilayan snow pack, has been greatly exaggerated and was based on ... nothing. The United Nations even admits to this now: GENEVA - Jan. 20, 2010 (AP) - A U.N. warning that Himalayan glaciers were melting faster than any other place in the world and may be gone by 2035 was not backed up by science, U.N. climate experts said Wednesday — an admission that could energize climate change critics. (AP report via Physorg.com) To say that this "could energize climate change critics" is a huge understatement. It just adds one more bomb to the arsenal of information that "skeptics" have to combat the hyper-panic propaganda of the Environmentalist Left and Church of Global Warming. The AP report continues: In a 2007 report, the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said the Himalayan glaciers are very likely to disappear within three decades if the present melting rate continues. But a statement from the panel now says there is not enough scientific evidence to back up those claim. In fact, glacier shrinkage seems to be the opposite of what is really happening in the Himilayas. In May, 2009 a Discovery News report noted this: Among legendary peaks of Mt. Everest like K2 and Nanga Parbat, glaciers with a penthouse view of the world are growing, and have been for almost three decades. Growing? For about 30 years? Really? Does Al Gore tell you about that? Late last year, "Climategate" revealed that there is not enough evidence to back up claims of man-made climate warming, that evidence of just the opposite has been suppressed, and that the "evidence" of any temperature shift upward was either fabricated or exaggerated. This latest blow to the credibility of Al Gore and his band of lying liars should - in a more rational world - be enough to finally put the subject to rest. Unfortunately, the global warming/climate change argument has been so emotionalized and politicized that the panic continues among the ignorant. The liars have already done their damage. AP reports that "The U.N. climate change panel said 'the chair, vice-chairs, and co-chairs of the IPCC regret the poor application of well-established IPCC procedures in this instance.'" Meanwhile, governments are imposing expensive and punitive laws based on bad science and outright lies. As long as the U.N. is apologizing, how about a mea culpa from Al Gore? Will Gore be asked to return his Nobel prize? Will the next Copenhagen climate conference be based on reality, or on more junk "science?"

Glaciergate a Good Sequel to Climategate

More bad news for the Church of Global Warming and Pope Al Gore. As a sequel to Climategate, we now have "Icegate" or "Glaciergate." January 19, 2010 [Australia] -The Australian revealed yesterday the claims by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change were based on the work of a lone Indian scientist. "The bottom line is the IPCC report is wrong," said Ian Allison, a glaciologist with Hobart's Australian Antarctic Division and president of the International Association of Cryosphere Sciences, whose members study Earth's icy surfaces. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/nation/un-glacier-blunder-a-300-year-mix-up/story-e6frg6nf-1225821001387 Golly! More bad science from the "experts?" Sure, why not? They've given us so much bad science already, a little bit more is actually welcome. It just reinforces those of us who've been anticipating this for so long. The Australian followed the report above with this editorial: The news that the key report driving global policy on climate change used a throwaway line in a popular science magazine to suggest some Himalayan glaciers could disappear in 25 years reads like a Monty Python skit. This "icegate" scandal is potentially far more damaging to climate change science than the recent discovery of embarrassing emails from the University of East Anglia Climatic Research Unit. Those emails reveal a robust advocacy of global warming on the part of scientists but no evidence that this compromised their scientific work. Even so, taken together, these scandals underline the need for scientists to be rigorous in their processes and realistic in their claims.

Danny Glover and Pat Robertson are Both Crazy

Televangelist Pat Robertson recently said that Haiti's disastrous earthquake was supernatural punishment. "They were under the heel of the French. You know, Napoleon the third, or whatever. And they got together and swore a pact to the devil," he told viewers of his 700 Club television show on Wednesday, Jan. 13. We'll assume that by "the devil" he meant Satan. Robertson's statement was nutty and I don't share his opinion that the poor Haitian people are being punished because their ancestors might have made "a pact" with Satan - or anybody else. What the Haitian people are paying for, and dearly, is a multi-generational endurance of bad government policies. The eastern two-thirds of Hispaniola, the island that Haiti sits on, is home to the Dominican Republic, a nation full of resorts and lush greenery, decent infrastructure and democratic institutions. Satan had nothing to do with their current situation, either. As crazy as it sounds, however, Robertson's statement is not as crazy as what Danny Glover said when he spoke on Grit.tv recently. The two statements, however, have remarkable similarities.
Danny Glover, a mentally deranged Liberal, actor and lover of socialist dictators, spoke by phone and gave his theory as to why Haiti was hit by a horrible earthquake. Glover blamed the earthquake on global warming, climate change and the failed Copenhagen conference (COP15). "When we did what we did at the climate summit in Copenhagen," he said, "this is the response, this is what happens, you know what I'm sayin'?" (Hear it in the video.) Glover's theory about the cause of the Haitian earthquake is more bizarre than Robertson's for a few reasons.
Glover is crazy to begin with, but he's also so damned ignorant that he does not understand that a degree or two of climate change does not affect tectonics (earthquakes). Earthquakes are geological. Weather and climate are metorological. There is no such thing as "earthquake weather." The popular theory that the alignment of the moon and the sun can cause earthquakes has no established scientific basis. But there's Glover, who doesn't understand these simple facts, trying to sound all uptown by giving us his idiotic, superstition-based based that the failure of COP15 caused the recent quake in Haiti. Ye Gods! Whereas Robertson's theory of a pact with Satan ("the devil") is based religious theory, said theory is many millennia old. Glover's theory boils down to this: The planet Earth, "Gaia," if you will, is pissed off because a conference held a few months ago in Denmark did not turn out the way some humans had hoped it would. Both Robertson's theory and Glover's theory require faith to be believed. But ask yourself which is easier to have faith in: Robertson's supernatural being (Satan/the devil), who wants to enslave Mankind? Or Glover's planet, an inanimate ball of rocks and minerals with a molten center that is mostly covered by a thin coating of water? Robertson is correct in saying that the French once held tyrannical rule over Haiti. The Haitians revolted and threw the French out. As for the alleged pact with Satan, well, there are plenty of people who have literally sworn allegiance to Satan and have not suffered as Haiti has. Also, Robertson doesn't explain why the descendents of those he says dealt with Satan are paying for any alleged contract that their ancestors signed with Satan. By rights, I suppose, it's the original signers of the mythical contract that should have suffered the recent 7.0 earthquake. If Glover's theory of a planet angered by a failed conference is to be believed, one must ask why Gaia has not yet destroyed California with a 10.0 earthquake, or why Gaia never lifted a finger to defeat Hitler's Germany or Tojo's Japan. Perhaps Glover thinks Gaia is ticked off because Humankind has failed to stop any slight warming that might be occurring, even though thousands of periods of severe warming and cooling predate the Industrial Revolution by thousands, millions and billions of years. The Satan theory put forward by Robertson is, frankly, more logical. Glover, as mentioned, loves socialist dictators. In the photo here, he embraces Venezuelan crazyman Hugo Chavez. Now, Chavez believes firmly in Satan. You may recall that Chavez has, on at least two occasions, said he could smell the sulphur in the room because Satan had just been present. Perhaps Chavez, too, believes in Robertson's theory about Haiti's current state of affairs being tied to a pact with the devil. I would love to see Glover and Chavez in a debate over these dueling theories. As I said, both theories require faith, with requires leaps of logic. But let's look at the Robertson and Glover theories as screenplays, just for the sake of discussion. Which character would make "more sense?" Satan, a fallen angel bent on revenge and enslavement, who becomes angry with a group of people because of a broken contract? Or Gaia, a spherical chunk of real estate floating through space that becomes homicidally annoyed by a failed conference? I gotta go with the Satan character. Alec Baldwin would be a great casting choice, you know what I'm sayin'?.

Dec. 1, 2009 - "Australia's parliament rejected laws to set up a sweeping carbon emissions trade scheme on Wednesday, scuttling a key policy of Prime Minister Kevin Rudd and setting a trigger for an early election." Reuters. NOTE: This could damage Barack Obama's hopes for Copenhagen next week, as noted in that Reuters story: "The defeat by parliament's upper house Senate ends [Prime Minister Kevin] Rudd's hopes of taking his legislated climate commitments to next week's global talks in Copenhagen, where world leaders will discuss new targets to curb greenhouse gas emissions."

Whistleblower Got Climategate Emails, Not Hacker

Well well, seems "Climategate" may have been an inside job by a disgruntled employee, if you will. Perhaps the falsification of climate data finally sickened the insider enough that he/she just couldn't sleep well at night any longer. This shocking revelation is reported in a November 30 article at the Washington Examiner. The article starts by reminding us that "reams of information were posted on a Russian server detailing the inner workings" of climate researchers, and that the information shows that those researchers have been fudging data to make it conform to their political agenda. For over a week and a half, it was thought that a Russian hacker gained access to e-mails but now, it turns out, it was a whistleblower from within: "The information included e-mails, computer codes, annotations to code and the like," writes Chris Horner for the Examiner. He notes that many of the documents were communiques "responding to a long-frustrated series of requests under the United Kingdom's freedom of information law." Horner's bombshell comes in this sentence: "This is only one of numerous factors indicating that the disclosures were not the work of a 'hacker,' as the media parrot without evidence, but a whistleblower on the inside."

MSM Ignoring Climategate, a Sampling...

Update: Whistleblower Got Climategate Emails, Not Hacker The "Mainstream Media" are collectively ignoring what could be the biggest hoax of a generation - and one of the biggest in history. The recent revelation of hacked researchers' emails shows that they have been falsifying climate data to fit their political agenda for many years. In other words, manmade global warming is fake, a hoax, bogus, a Big Lie. The scandal quickly became known as "climategate." In case you are not familiar with the Climategate Scandal, here is a summary from CivicsNews blogspot: On Thursday 19th November 2009 news began to circulate that hacked documents and communications from the University of East Anglia’s Hadley Climate Research Unit (aka CRU) had been published to the internet.The information revealed how top scientists conspired to falsify data in the face of declining global temperatures in order to prop up the premise that man-made factors are driving climate change. Big story, right? Well, sure, unless you're a Liberal editor at a major American news outlet. In that case, your politically-correct duty is to suppress or downplay Climategate. And that's just what is happening. The Church of Global Warming kicked into emergency mode to quickly counter the charges of fraud laid against them. A web search for "climategate" on Google produces "about 6,680,000" results. By contrast, a Google search for "global warming" (in quotes) produces "about 11,900,000" hits. Keep in mind that the global warming discussion has been around for many years, whereas discussion of "climategate" is less than two weeks old. A blog search on Google for "climategate" produces "about 908,724" hits; a search for "global warming" produces "about 14,240,406" hits. It should be pointed out that virtually all posts and articles about "climategate" refer to "global warming," while the vast majority of items about "global warming" still do not have refer to "climategate," primarily because over 90% of them were written prior to the breaking of the Climategate Scandal. Chicago News Bench searched a sampling of major mainstream media sites for references to "climategate." We went to their web sites and entered "climategate" into their own internal search functions. All search results are from between Noon and 12:30 p.m., CST on November 29: Chicago Tribune: "0 results for search term(s): climategate Did you mean climate gate? No Results Found." Chicago Sun-Times: "You searched for climategate Total found: 0" New York Times: 49 results (Note that virtually all of those results are stories that attempt to downplay the significance of the Climategate Scandal.) CBS.com: "Your search for 'climategate' did not match any documents. Please try a different search." ABC.com: "No results found" NBC.com: "No matches were found" San Franciso Chronicle: "Sorry, your search for climategate returned no articles from the past 30 days" Miami Herald: "We didn't find any Articles containing 'climategate'." Los Angeles Times: "0 results for search term(s): climategate" The Guardian (UK): "Sorry, there are no results for your search query, please try another search." You get the idea. Try you own search for "climategate." Educate yourself. This is a fight for freedom from economic tyranny and a power grab wrapped in the slogan "Save the Planet." You need to know how the power hungry, money hungry Al Gores are trying to fool you. One item is particularly amusing, in a dark way. The Ecologist (UK) offers an opinion piece dated Nov. 27 titled "Shame on the 'climategate' scientists‎." Curiously, it acknowledges the fraud wrought by climate researchers, yet maintains that the scandal "should [not] have any real impact on the Copenhagen negotiations, which, even if they succeed, will set targets based on very conservative science at any rate." So... it's fake data, but we should move ahead will globally devastating economic tyranny in the name of bad science anyway? This is typical of the Left's response to Climategate: Either ignore it altogether, or tighten the blindfold and forge on.

Al Gore Chased From Chicago Book Signing

Al Gore is still out there peddling his lies about global warming, even in the face of recent revelations that the whole thing is a big fraud. Climategate Updates, Nov. 30: Whistleblower Got Climategate Emails, Not Hacker and Hot Video: Al Gore Confronted on Climategate Here are a couple of reports (below) of how some folks in Chicago responded on Tuesday, Nov. 24 to Gore's brazen perpetuation of what he knows to be false. (We were the first to give you a heads up about this event.) We wondered on Tuesday whether Gore would be apologetic for the massive fraud that he and others have been perpetrating on the world for years now, especially in light of last week's revelation of emails that show that climate data was deliberately manipulated and falsified. Predictably, he was not. Prediction: Gore will continue to see increasingly large protests, like that in Chicago, as he continues to promote one of the biggest and most cynical hoaxes in human history. - Gore Flees in Panic from Chicago Book Signing - Protesters Chase Junk Scientist Al Gore Down the Street After Book Signing Also See: - Tea Parties Can Learn From "We Are Change Chicago" - How Al Gore Lies About CO2 - Video - Greenpeace Leader Admits Lying - The "Climategate" Scandal and Resistance to Truth Leave a Comment Conservative T-Shirts Follow CNB on Twitter RSS Feed

Obama in Climategate Denial (Video)

Despite the inconvenient truth of the "Climategate" scandal, which has proven that leftist scientists have conspired to fake climate date to falsely "prove" global warming, the Obama Administration is determined to perpetuate the Lies.
