Watch this closely: '1079 emails and 72 documents seem indeed evidence of a scandal involving most of the most prominent scientists pushing the man-made warming theory - a scandal that is one of the greatest in modern science. ...

Atlas Shrugs  | Links  | Related | Nov 20, 2009 04:39 PM EST   [*New!*]

How hard will the corrupt activist media work to bury this explosive story? Many of us have exposed the hoax of climate change by legitimate, responsible scientists for years but still the elites rob us blind and torment us with legislation, regulation on' the greatest threat facing humanity'. (akbar!). The Goreacle stuffs his gourd with his ' carbon footprint' ill gotten gains (110 million and counting). Scientific scandal appears to rock climate change promoters There's big news for climate change students. A hacker has gotten into the computers at Hadley CRU, Britain's largest climate research institute and a proponent of global warming, and seems to have uncovered evidence of substantial fraud in reporting the 'evidence' on global warming; the unlawful destruction of records to cover up this fraud...

Sarah Palin's Uterus Swallows Andy Sullivan

Riehl World View  | Links  | Related | Nov 20, 2009 04:37 PM EST   [*New!*]

It's bizarre enough as it is reading Sarah Palin's uterus' blog . But to think that she actually follows Andy Sullivan? At least, it may explain some things. How would you feel if you were a gay man and a uterus was following you  on the Internet? It isn't that I'm surprised Andy is being stalked by a sexual organ out here. It just isn't the gender I actually had in mind. There. I said it and I don't care who knows! I am utterly, madly, passionately addicted to The Daily Dish. At first I was a bit creeped out by Sully's obsession with me. But let's face it, who else out there shows any interest in my accomplishments? Ever since Trig moved out, the media won't give me the time of day . Life has gotten pretty dull around here. I can't remember the last time Vanity Fair tried to get me to give them...

Hammond: Section by Section Analysis of the Reid Bill

REDSTATE WEB EXCLUSIVE November 19, 2009 MEMORANDUM FROM: Michael Hammond RE: The Reid Bill: The Mandates, Public Option, Regulation, Rationing, and Taxes EDITORS NOTE Harry Reid’s objective has been to secret the provisions of the most important piece of legislation in our lifetimes until he could cram it down Americans’ throats because there was insufficient time to analyze and mobilize against it. To some extent, he has succeeded. I have done what I could, given the need to disseminate this at least a day before the Senate moved to cloture on the motion to proceed. I have therefore focused on the mandates, the public option, regulation, rationing, and taxes. THE NUMBERS -Cost: -Reid’s phony number: $847 billion ...

Some musings on the glorious future of lab-grown meat , from the glorious future-oriented mag, H+: In-Vitro Meat will be fashioned from any creature, not just domestics that were affordable to farm. Yes, ANY ANIMAL, even rare beasts like snow leopard, or Komodo Dragon. We will want to taste them all. Some researchers believe we will also be able to create IVM using the DNA of extinct beasts—obviously, 'DinoBurgers' will be served at every six-year-old boy's birthday party. Humans are animals, so every hipster will try Cannibalism. Perhaps we'll just eat people we don't like, as author Iain M. Banks predicted in his short story, 'The State of the Art' with diners feasting on 'Stewed Idi Amin.' But I imagine passionate ...

New at Reason: Shikha Dalmia on the Health Care Mandate

Reason Magazine - Hit & Run  | Links  | Related | Nov 20, 2009 04:30 PM EST

With unemployment reaching double digits and public approval ratings sinking, ObamaCare has very little going for it at the moment. So how come Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid have been able to march forward with their grand designs undeterred? One reason, writes Shikha Dalmia, is that Republicans have done precious little to seize the moral high ground from them. By insisting on the removal of the public option—instead of the individual mandate—as the price of doing business, Republicans have missed a major opportunity to put Democrats on the defensive and change the terms of the debate.

Claire McCaskill: Health Bill Is As Long As Palin’s Book

Seriously, for someone the Left says is an empty suit and not a serious political player, they sure spend quite a bit of time talking about Sarah Palin Sen. Claire McCaskill on Thursday touted the Senate healthcare reform bill by taking a dig at former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s new book. McCaskill (D) said if the bill [...]

Bloviating Dick Cavett Bashes ‘Know-Nothing’ Sarah Palin, Obsesses Over His Brilliance

NewsBusters  | Links  | Related | Nov 20, 2009 04:27 PM EST

[Video to be added shortly] Talk show host Dick Cavett, whose TV show went off the air in 1982, appeared on MSNBC, Friday, to trash Sarah Palin as a 'know nothing' and someone who has 'no first language.' Mostly, however, he seemed interested only in talking about himself, prompting News Live host Norah O’Donnell to chide, ' Dick, this segment is about Sarah Palin, not about you, Dick.' John Harwood, New York Times writer and CNBC contributor, co-hosted and kicked off the segment with this condescending question: ' Let me ask you what you make of the Sarah Palin phenomenon and, in particular, the argument that some people make, well, she might not be a good President, but she'd be a good talk show host. You think so?' Cavett clearly wanted to bash Palin, but he really wanted to tout his own...

Newsweek: Ft Hood Happened Because Muslims Aren’t ‘Comfortable’

NewsBusters  | Links  | Related | Nov 20, 2009 04:23 PM EST

On Nov. 18, Newsweek's Steven Simon and Jonathan Stevenson wrote an article titled ' The Real Shock of Fort Hood .' If you thought that the shock of Fort Hood was that an Army Major fired over 100 rounds into a crowded processing center on a military base - killing 13 and wounding 29 - you're wrong. 'It's not that the massacre occurred,' said the article. 'It's that it hadn't occurred before.' According to Simon and Stevenson, Major Nidal Malik Hasan was simply another American Muslim that was the victim of 'innumerable stresses, including discrimination and the strain of divided loyalties in their country's eight-year-long war against Muslims in the Middle East and Central Asia.'   The authors argued that such circumstances would be 'enough to inspire conflict in the minds of even the most patriotic of...

CNN.com Doesn't Explicitly Mention Party of Senator Burris (D)

NewsBusters  | Links  | Related | Nov 20, 2009 04:13 PM EST

An unsigned CNN.com article on Friday noted that the Senate Ethics Committee had reproved Senator Roland Burris “for actions and statements reflecting unfavorably upon the Senate,” but did not directly mention the Illinois senator’s affiliation with the Democratic Party. The article did mention that Burris was “the only African-American U.S. senator.” The first two paragraphs from the CNN Political Ticker story excerpted the letter that the Senate committee sent to the successor to President Obama: “The Senate Ethics Committee issued a letter Friday admonishing embattled Illinois Sen. Roland Burris ‘for actions and statements reflecting unfavorably upon the Senate’ in connection with his controversial appointment by former Gov. Rod Blagojevich. ‘While the committee did not find that the evidence before it...
