THE SO-CALLED CLIMATE CHANGE, GLOBAL WARMING HOAX AND SCAM IS GETTING WORSE BY THE WEEK - SOMEONE OUGHT TO SUE EVERY MAJOR PLAYER IN THIS SUPER-SCAM!

COMMENTARY

Posted by Alan Caruba On March - 30 - 2009



My friend, the internationally

famed climatologist, Dr. S. Fred Singer, calls them “the CO2 wars.” It is the last ditch attempt by the Greens, under the aegis of the Obama administration, to declare carbon dioxide a pollutant and thus open the door to its regulation.

Singer says such regulation “would be the equivalent of an atomic bomb directed at the U.S. economy—all without any scientific justification.”


I am increasingly of the opinion that the main goal of the Obama administration through CO2 regulation, exploding deficits, punishing taxation, and any other means at their disposal is the destruction of the economy and the complete control of impoverished Americans.

This is an administration that exists to impose an

Orwellian socialist utopia after the smokescreen clears.


When it comes to CO2, Obama, his so-called science advisors, and the Environmental Protection Agency are all lying. It is governmental gangsterism.

As reported in The Wall Street Journal, “The Environmental Protection Agency has sent the White House a proposed finding that carbon dioxide is a danger to public health, a step that could trigger a clampdown on emissions of so-called greenhouse gases across a wide swath of the economy.”


Here are a few things you need to keep in mind about carbon dioxide:

  • CO2 is not a “pollutant.” It is a trace gas necessary for all life of Earth because it is essential to the growth of all vegetation.

  • Without CO2 all vegetation—grasses, forests, jungles, crops such as wheat, corn and rice—dies. Then herbivores die. Then you die.

  • The CO2 produced by human industry or activity is a miniscule fraction of a percentage of greenhouse gases. It constitutes a mere 0.038% of the atmosphere.

  • The oceans emit 96.5% of all greenhouse gases, holding and releasing CO2 as it has down through the millennia of Earth’s existence.

  • In past millennia, CO2 levels were often much higher than the present.

  • CO2 levels rise hundreds of years after temperature rise on planet Earth.

  • The Sun is the primary source of warmth on Earth. Rising CO2 is an effect of global warming, not acause.

  • Both global warming and cooling are natural phenomenon over which humans have no control.

  • The Earth is not currently warming. It has been cooling for a decade and likely to continue for at least another twenty years or longer. If a new Ice Age is triggered, it will last at least 10,000 years.

  • Polar ice is now at record levels and still growing.

If you had a choice, would you prefer a warmer or colder Earth?


And consider this, if only the United States was to significantly cut its CO2 emissions, how much effect, if any, would that have in a world where most other nations, including China and India, have no intention of doing so? Both are exempt from the UN Kyoto Protocol. The answer is zero!


The EPA proposal is not about science. It is about power and it is about money. As the Wall Street Journal noted, “The administration has proposed a cap-and-trade system that could raise $646 billion by 2019 through government auctions of emission allowances.”


The federal government, though the aegis of the EPA, would have control over the destinies of an estimated 13,000 facilities if this regulatory obscenity were to become law.


“Coal-fired power plants, oil refineries and domestic industries, such as energy-intensive paper, cement, fertilizer, steel and glass manufacturers, worry that increased cost burdens imposed by climate-change laws will put them at a severe competitive disadvantage to their international peers that aren’t bound by similar environmental rules.”


Such industries would flee the United States as the most toxic place on Earth in which to do business.


This would be the fulfillment of the Obama administration’s goal and explains in part why this new assault on science, industry, and common sense has been put forth by the EPA.

OUR CONCERNS ABOUT THE UNITED STATES CENSUS

CONGRESSWOMAN MICHELE BACHMANN AFFIRMS HER DECISION TO ANSWER ONLY THE CENSUS QUESTIONS REQUIRED BY CONSTITUTIONAL LAW:


Below these comments, is a letter that was sent to all on a large mailing list, including this website.

Please read and decide for yourself about whether you wish to give information to the federal government beyond a few questions that must be answered by law.

The government has become increasingly intrusive to the citizens of the United States. They say that extensive information given will not be given to any other government entity, That does not offer any comfort to most people, as they know that the government will most likely use the information for unethical reasons, therefore breaching its promise.

PLEASE READ THE LETTER AND LINK FOR THE CONSTITUTIONAL CENSUS LAW BELOW -

THE LETTER -

I know I am sending out a lot of emails on the census – but we need to be aware and we need to NOT give more information than is necessary as outlined in the Constitution. It does not matter how good they make it sound – they don’t need it – and for them to have it … is for them to TREAD ON US.

So… here is yet another story…

Last week my radio co-host was visited by a census taker. Joann, my co-host, answered the 3 questions I had grilled her about previously, and when she refused to answer the rest of the questions, the woman asked for her birthdate, which isn't what they're asking for because they want your age and you don't have to give your birthday. Then, when she didn't give it to the census taker, the woman asked for her social security number! That's a no-no. We're NEVER to give that out.

My co-host, Joann, told her she was through answering questions and had done her Constitutional duty to answer 1) number of people in the home, 2) ages, 3) and gender. Period. The woman left saying she'd have the office contact Joann. Well, sure enough they called her and quizzed her about answering all kinds of health questions. Joann said she wasn't going to answer them. A few days later, along comes a FED EX package containing ONE sheet of paper costing us taxpayers $12.01!

It basically tried to lay a guilt trip on her for not answering the questions that "could" help her town with government funding. When they called her again to ask about finishing the questionnaire, Joann said, "What part of no don't you understand?" When she asked about where they got the funding for the $12 packet containing one sheet of paper, the woman was hemming and hawing and finally said they had grant money for that. Yeah, sure and pigs fly on a regular basis with this administration. Joann stuck to her guns and don't think for a second we didn't exploit that on our show last Friday!

Moral of the story is: stick to your guns. All they need is the answer to those 3 above questions: how many in the home, ages, gender of each individual. They don't need your birthdate or your social security number and they sure don't need to know how many pills you take, or even if you take any!

Forewarned is forearmed.

TRI-STATERS NOT IN LOVE WITH 'NEW' OBAMA

President In Deep Trouble With Middle Class; Many Think His Attempt To 'Reconnect' Shows Serious Desperation

Commander-In-Chief To Present New Ideas At State Of The Union Address

NEW YORK (CBS) ―

Some say it's an open admission to many here in the tri-state area that he has failed to feel our pain and our needs.

From his war on the banks -- the lifeblood of the metropolitan area economy -- to his health care reform which could cost taxpayers here over $1 billion, President Obama's policies have sent a strong message to the tri-state area that Washington doesn't care about the middle class.

Suddenly, he claims he wants to change that.

OBAMA'S FEDERAL JUDGE NOMINEE, EDWARD CHEN - A FORMER A.C.L.U.. EXTREME RADICAL THAT SHOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE FEDERAL BENCH

Another day, another Obama nominee who doesn't appear to love America. Another nominee who thinks the United States is inherently racist. Another nominee who thinks that judges should let their "ethnic and racial background" have an effect on how they conduct their trials. President Obama's radicalization of American government needs to be stopped.


In this case, the nominee is Northern California federal district court nominee Edward Chen, forwarded by the Senate Judiciary Committee to the full Senate last Friday on a party-line vote. Mr. Chen is currently a federal magistrate in San Francisco, and a lawyer long active with the American Civil Liberties Union before that.

Judge Chen's words speak for themselves. When the congregation sang "America the Beautiful" at a funeral, Judge Chen told the audience of his "feelings of ambivalence and cynicism when confronted with appeals to patriotism - sometimes I cannot help but feel that there are too much [sic] injustice and too many inequalities that prevent far too many Americans from enjoying the beauty extolled in that anthem."

In a speech on Sept. 22, 2001, he said that among his first responses to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks on America was a "sickening feeling in my stomach about what might happen to race relations and religious tolerance on our own soil. ... One has to wonder whether the seemingly irresistible forces of racism, nativism and scapegoating which has [sic] recurred so often in our history can be effectively restrained."

And talking about the role of judges, he in effect embraced the "empathy standard" that Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor was forced to denounce in her own confirmation hearings: "Simply put, a judge's life experiences affect the willingness to credit testimony or understand the human impact of legal rules upon which the judge must decide. These determinations require a judge to draw upon something that is not found in the case reports that line the walls of our chambers. Rather judges draw upon the breadth and depth of their own life experience.... Inevitably, one's ethnic and racial background contributes to those life experiences."

You get the picture. To quote and paraphrase Sen. Charles E. Schumer from another occasion, this man's attitude "doesn't even whisper 'judge.' " Instead, it yells out that he is a biased radical willing to impose his own politics from the bench. Judge Chen should not be confirmed.

COMMENTARY BY DEBRA J. SAUNDERS - PENTAGON CLUELESS ON FORT HOOD SHOOTINGS

Politically correctness is alive in the Pentagon. Witness "Protecting the Force":

Lessons from Fort Hood," a Department of Defense report released last week on the Nov. 5 shootings that left 13 people dead.

Granted, drafters of the report had to be careful not to say anything that would help the defense of accused shooter Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who has pleaded not guilty. Even so, if the report's purpose was to craft lessons to prevent future attacks, how could they leave out
radical Islam? MORE BELOW

"Our concern is with actions and effects, not necessarily with motivations," former Army Secretary Togo West explained to Time magazine.

In that turn-a-blind-eye spirit, the report essentially whited out the many warning signs left by the Army psychiatrist. On the Internet, Hasan compared Islamist suicide bombers with an American soldier who threw himself on a grenade in Iraq to protect fellow troops. As reported in the Times of London, Hasan explained, "Scholars have paralleled this to suicide bombers whose intention, by sacrificing their lives, is to help save Muslims by killing enemy soldiers. If one suicide bomber can kill 100 enemy soldiers because they were caught off guard, that would be considered a strategic victory." The Washington Post reported that Hasan gave public talks to his colleagues in which he equated the war on terror with a war on Islam.

Political Cartoons by Eric Allie

M. Zuhdi Jasser, founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, which challenges radicalized Islam, also is an internist and former lieutenant commander in the U.S. Navy. As one who went through the same system that trained Hasan, Jasser believes the biggest lesson from Fort Hood should be that a "culture of political correctness" kept concerned officers from reporting Hasan. Yet the report papers over the elephant in the room.

To Pentagon report writers, the shootings have an air of mystery. As in: "Detecting a trusted insider's intention to commit a violent act requires observation of behavioral cues/anomalies." It helps if you can believe that Hasan's cues were observable only to the trained eye.

Ignoring Hasan's pro-terrorist Web postings, the report instead focuses on workplace violence, programs to prevent workplace violence -- such as the Post Office's "Going Postal Program" -- and the stress imposed on military health care providers.

The report does refer to "radicalization," which is good. But it overuses the term "self-radicalization," despite Hasan' contact with Yemeni cleric Anwar al-Awlaki before the shootings. Said Jasser: "They are simply trying to exaggerate the fact that these are lone actors. I do not believe they are."

Jasser is especially offended at the notion that Hasan's actions were the fruit of psychological problems -- or, as per the report, "cumulative psychological effects of persistent conflict." (To me, the report read like the first draft of a not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity plea.) To Jasser, the more obvious finding could be that the shooter, like Osama bin Laden, simply decided that the ends justify the means.
