According to the National Center for Public Policy Research, Obama’s new counterterrorism plan is to put the cream of the crop CIA agents on global warming duty. Yep. You read that correctly. I said global warming duty.
The “Obama Administration is tasking some of our nation’s most elite intelligence-gathering agencies to divert their resources to environmental scientists researching global warming.”
They’ve “restarted a program in which scientists are obtaining classified intelligence data from the Central Intelligence Agency and National Reconnaissance Office. Information from these secret government surveillance programs is being used to track climate change.”
I think this dude’s reaction says it best:
“Given the very real threat posed by terrorists, it is ridiculous and downright dangerous to divert any intelligence resources to monitoring polar ice,” added Project 21′s Deneen Borelli. “Its said this won’t hinder regular intelligence-gathering, but it’s also clear that agencies can’t yet share data and track a terrorism suspect who was identified by his own father. It’s unwise to further distract our intelligence network by forcing it to consult with scientists about icebergs, polar bears and sea lions. The Obama Administration appears to be putting a left-wing political agenda before the safety and security of our nation.”
Way to give a rat’s ass about the safety of Americans, Bo.
Brilliant…
The top headlines on the Drudge Report read as follows:
Al Gore has got to be totally freaking out.
Speaking of Al Gore, this is an oldie but a goodie, and I hereby dedicate it to all of those craaazy guys and gals out there who still actually believe we puny little humans are affecting global climate change.
According to this, a new book by Robert and Brenda Vale has revealed that the carbon “pawprint” of dogs is more than DOUBLE that of an SUV.
Daisy has 3 great danes and a boxer. Obviously, the only logical conclusion one can draw from this is that a significant amount of global warming is directly attributable to Daisy’s dogs. Which means, using standard alarmist logic, that global warming is Daisy’s fault and WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE.
But it’s not just dogs, apparently. The Vales claim that other animals are pretty tough on the environment too. Cats apparently equate, footprint-wise, to driving a VW Golf for a year. Two hamsters = plasma tv. And those evil, evil goldfish? Why – they’re as bad as TWO CELL PHONES.
The solution? The Vales say humans should be “encouraged to take the environmental impact of their future possession/companion into account.” Are you listening, Daisy?
But even better than just taking the environmental impact into account is simply choosing pets that you can use for food. So – you know, give up the danes and grab a chicken to cuddle with.
And people wonder why the whole global warming hoax has become so laughable.
GAWD.

So, McManBearPig goes over to Copenhagen to act like he’s a scientist or something. You know, in addition to inventing the Internet and all.
He makes this blanket statement:
“These figures are fresh. Some of the models suggest to Dr Wieslav Maslowski that there is a 75 per cent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during the summer months, could be completely ice-free within five to seven years,” The Times quoted Gore, as saying.
The problem is that Maslowski sort of called him out on the fact that he blatantly misquoted him. And that he would never say such a thing. His exact words: “I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this.”
Nice work, McManBearPig. Way to dig your way out of that hole.
Oh, and it’s 13 right now in my Midwest city. Brrrrr. I’m just sayin.
We’ve written about this dude before, and every time I see him, I like him just a little bit more. He’s that guy that can completely disarm you with his charm, while simultaneously making you look like a complete imbecile. It’s a gift, really. And, the gift is being given nicely to this Greenpeace chick while in Copenhagen about the subject of global warming.
Love.
Correction per a clever and competent reader: This clip is from Berlin, December 4th, not Copenhagen.
In yet another hypocritical moment in his presidency, Bo made it a point to scare the crap out of people by making climate change a security issue. You know, because that global warming thing is as bad as Kim Jong-Il wanting all of us Americans to die a slow, painful death. Yep.
His exact words from that Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech in Oslo, where he of course talked about this horrendous threat to our security:
“There is little scientific dispute that if we do nothing, we will face more drought, more famine, more mass displacement – all of which will fuel more conflict for decades,” and then he drew attention to the question of security in the climate problem:
“It is not merely scientists and environmental activists who call for swift and forceful action – it’s military leaders in my own country and others who understand that our common security hangs in the balance.”
Funny how it’s O.K. for him to use this kind of tactic, but scolded Republicans last week for the “trying to scare the American people” about his proposals.
Republicans don’t need to do that, Bo. They’re scary enough all on their own.
When asked about those Climategate emails, Al Gore answered in iambic pentameter.
I’m kidding. He didn’t do that. But he did manage to say how the emails were from TEN YEARS AGO – three times, to be exact. As if saying it three times would make it true.
Basically, McManBearPig didn’t read the emails at all. Because, the fact is that one was from just two months ago. Another was sent on November 12 – just a month ago. Ones from Tom Wigley are all from this year. Aaaand, Phil Jones’ infamous email urging other Climategate scientists to delete emails is from last year.
But McManBearPig just keeps spewing that they’re from ten years ago (while paraphrasing Shakespeare, of course, because we’d expect no less from such a scholarly pillar of smarts).
To paraphrase Shakespeare, it’s sound and fury signifying nothing. I haven’t read all the e-mails, but the most recent one is more than 10 years old. These private exchanges between these scientists do not in any way cause any question about the scientific consensus.
I think it’s been taken wildly out of context. The discussion you’re referring to was about two papers that two of these scientists felt shouldn’t be accepted as part of the IPCC report. Both of them, in fact, were included, referenced, and discussed. So an e-mail exchange more than 10 years ago including somebody’s opinion that a particular study isn’t any good is one thing, but the fact that the study ended up being included and discussed anyway is a more powerful comment on what the result of the scientific process really is.
These people are examining what they can or should do to deal with the P.R. dimensions of this, but where the scientific consensus is concerned, it’s completely unchanged. What we’re seeing is a set of changes worldwide that just make this discussion over 10-year-old e-mails kind of silly.
His time dimension includes flowers and poetry and incense, I’ve heard – with absolutely no sense of reality or, well, clocks.
That ignorance thing sure is bliss.

You guys, there is the most nauseating article in Vanity Fair right now. It’s an article which sings the praises of Al Gore’s book Our Choice, and more specifically, of the POEM HE WROTE IN IT.
I’m sure he’ll be the next Pulitzer winner. There is absolutely no question in my mind that whatever awards are possible for Al Gore to win, he’ll win, because he has so many people snowed. In fact, I’m surprised that he hasn’t yet won a MTV music video award.
Wait. Has he? I could be wrong about that.
Anyway, allow me to share some of the adjectives the article’s author chooses to use about Al Gore and his poem: fresh, beautiful, evocative, disturbing, accomplished, nuanced, arresting, and my favorite – scientifically accurate. Isn’t that hilarious? Here is the poem in its entirety:
One thin September soon
A floating continent disappears
In midnight sun
Vapors rise as
Fever settles on an acid sea
Snow glides from the mountain
Ice fathers floods for a season
A hard rain comes quickly
Then dirt is parched
Kindling is placed in the forest
For the lightning’s celebration
The shepherd cries
The hour of choosing has arrived
Here are your tools
I think Al might think he’s a shepherd. Shepherds are known the world over as inventors of the internet. I wasn’t sure if you knew that or not.
Meantime, the amount of CO2 being emitted at the Copenhagen meeting is equivalent to the daily amount of carbon dioxide produced by 30 of the world’s smaller countries.
NEAT!
I kind of love these guys. They’re a group called We Are Change Chicago. Just this past weekend, they went into a Borders on State Street in Chicago while McManBearPig was doing one of his many “look at me, I invented the Internet” book signings, and you know what they did? They challenged him. They even screamed a little, which I thought was a bit overdue at this point, seeing as how Climategate is still not being duly covered by the MSM. And they did this protesting while simultaneously being yelled at by all the lemmings waiting in line to get their book signed by McManBearPig. Yep. I said lemmings.
Some of the transcript of what went down:
First up was Saad Ali. As he approached Gore, he peacefully and respectably asked, Sir, can you comment on the emails and documents that were hacked [ClimateGate] that reveal that the research was a fraud and that it was all manipulated? Gore, with an evil smirk, claimed that he never read them. By the look on his face and his stutter, it became quite clear that Gore was extremely uncomfortable with the question, so he quickly glared towards his security. The agents grabbed and assaulted Saad, escorting him away from Gore for merely asking a simple question. The press took notice and started filming and snapping pictures of what was going on. One of which appeared the next day in the Chicago Sun Times.
Following Saads confrontation, Sati Word, a member of WAC Chicago, questioned Gore on why the IPCC hasnt released any reports on sunspot activity. However, before he could get an answer from Gore, security grabbed Sati and escorted him out of the building.
A little while later, Anthony, an activist from We Are Change Ohio, approached Gore and handed him the petition of the 31,486 scientists who say that Global Warming is a complete hoax. Anthony asked, What do you think about the science behind this sir? Mr. Gore rolled his eyes, and security escorted him out of the building.
Steve (swizzlesteve), was the last activist to question Gore. Within seconds of asking, Any comments on ClimateGate? The emails that prove its a scam, a farce, that global warming is a joke, any comment? Mr. Gore is heard to utter a few uhhhhhhhs and security quickly steps in to remove him as well.
It’s a 6-minute video, but well worth the watch on a Friday. And, McManBearPig’s smugness is palpable. As is the huge SUV he takes off in at the end of the clip.
Wake up, people and cop a clue. GAWD.

Hopefully you all had a chance to witness Ed Begley Jr. sputtering in fury at Stuart Varney the other day. If you did, you’ll have noticed that his main argument in defending the hoax that is global warming hysteria was “peer review studies.” He talked about peer review studies as if they were incontrovertible proof that global warming exists, that it is all our fault, and that we have to immediately all start riding bikes and cease using incandescent light bulbs or WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE.
Today, I read this article by Mark Steyn, which I loved not only because it completely obliterated Begley’s “peer reviews” but also because it did it in a totally snarky way. And you know we chicks love the snark.
Steyn explains that the trouble with the peer review system is that chosen “peers” have completely corrupted the process. The Climate Research Unit (CRU) basically controls the science behind the IPCC, which is what Congress relied on for its cap and trade scheme. And, it’s what the whole Copenhagen field trip is based on as well.
When papers are published which go against the CRU, then the CRU folks work to remove them from consideration as legitimate sources of news. This was all proven in the exposed emails from last week. An example was of Dr Jones from the CRU writing to his colleague about two dissenting articles, “I can’t see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep them out somehow – even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!”
Yeah. You know what that demonstrates? That the CRU follows the ACORN guidebook of ethical conduct. And Ed Begley Jr., sputtering and spitting, buys it all, because the alternative is admitting that his “green” lifestyle has been a complete waste of time.
This video is fabulous, because it not only provides reasonable and rational perspective from Senator Inhofe, but also features Ed Begley Jr. completely flipping out because I think he realizes that there is a very real possibility that all of his proud and happy bike-riding has been a colossal waste of time.
KIDDING. That’s not why he flips out. He flips out because Stuart lays into him on the junk science, and he can’t take it. But they make up at the end, and it’s actually kinda cute.
Enjoy.
If you’ve been a clever and competent reader for at least a two-week span, you’ll know how much I think Al McManBearPig is full of monkey crap. And how I think the whole climate-crisis, global-warming, cap-and-tax thing is just a way to suck more money out of my pocket and funnel it into blowhard wallets such as McManBearPig’s.
So yeah – in case you were wavering on where I stood there, now you know.
That’s why I think it’s funny when I get comments from readers, yelling at me that I don’t know what I’m talking about. I don’t know the difference between things like weather and climate and geothermal this and temperature that. Frankly, I was a lowly English major, and I STILL know that it’s a bunch of crap. However, the dude who’s asking for my hard-earned money to remedy a non-existent crisis should know. He should know a LOT more than me. All I need to understand is that controlling a population for the sake of the earth’s core temperature POSSIBLY going down one degree in 100 years is, well, a big ol’ sham. It’s a nice, heaping teaspoon of political snake oil. And, I’m not the only one who’s doubting it these days…
So, when I see footage such as this clip from The Tonight Show – where McManBearPig speaks so eloquently about his pet project – his BABY, mind you – I get even more peeved. Dude doesn’t even know what in the heck he’s talking about.
Behold as our brilliant McManBearPig speaks of how “the interior of the earth is extremely hot – several million degrees,” when in fact the temperature at the core is nowhere near that. According to Actual Scientists with Actual Brains, “If the temperature anywhere inside the earth was ‘several million degrees,’ we’d be a star.” (Also note that for you science buffs, the article gives a lot more information to back up why McManBearPig’s statements are “absurd.”)
Ah yes, but let’s just keep throwing money at him, shall we?
Awesome.
