“the average American makes only $33,000 a year -- which, adjusted for inflation, has not changed since 1988”
“A care package drive for deployed U.S. troops is receiving national notice after a professor at Suffolk University Law School criticized the operation.
Professor Michael Avery emailed his colleagues just before Veterans’ Day in response to a school-wide email soliciting donations. ‘I think it is shameful,’ he wrote, ‘that it is perceived as legitimate to solicit in an academic institution for support for men and women who have gone overseas to kill other human beings.’
Avery’s email inadvertently contributed to the drive’s success, however, because its publication drew an outpouring of support for U.S. service members.”
“Breaking news: two years after the Climategate, a further batch of emails has been leaked onto the internet by a person – or persons – unknown. And as before, they show the ‘scientists’ at the heart of the Man-Made Global Warming industry in a most unflattering light. Michael Mann, Phil Jones, Ben Santer, Tom Wigley, Kevin Trenberth, Keith Briffa – all your favourite Climategate characters are here, once again caught red-handed in a series of emails exaggerating the extent of Anthropogenic Global Warming, while privately admitting to one another that the evidence is nowhere near as a strong as they'd like it to be.
In other words, what these emails confirm is that the great man-made global warming scare is not about science but about political activism.”
“County officials this week released a list of 93 complaints of disruptive and illegal behavior near the county's main offices and courthouse, adjacent to the Occupy Santa Cruz camp…No evidence linking the excrement to the ringworm infested camp that sits just across the bridge? REALLY? Geez! Just a coincidence, I’m SURE.
At least one incident on the county list wasn't noted by the Sheriff's Office: the discovery of an estimated 200 pounds of human feces near the county Veterans Memorial Building, just across the Water Street bridge from the camp.
The county called in a hazardous materials team to clean up the mess, and installed a security fence around the building, which is closed for renovations. There is no evidence that linked the excrement to the camp.”
“To what extent is this entire [Climate Alarmist] movement simply a green Trojan horse, whose belly is full with red Marxist socioeconomic doctrine?”
DUH!
Watch the PBS series “Commanding Heights” (describing the century long battle between Socialism and Capitalism for the Commanding Heights of the global economy). At the very apex of those Commanding Heights is the energy sector.
CAGW is simply the latest front line in a century old war. CAGW is nothing more and nothing less than a full frontal Marxist attack on the very apex of the Commanding Heights of the global economy.
“If we are not on a radically different energy path by the end of this decade, we are in for a world of pain…
arriving at these new systems is going to require shredding the free-market ideology”
Balderdash!
There is NO reason to panic and there is EVERY reason why we should RETURN TO a free-market system (the ONLY system which -- when the time comes -- will have ANY chance of eventually of moving human civilization beyond a hydrocarbon based economy.)
Click here and see that Naomi’s CAGW cult has cynically exploited a mutidecadal warming phase of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation -- once we eliminate the influence of the AMO, we’re left with nothing more than the very gradual, perfectly natural, quite steady, multicentury long warming of 0.5C per century described in Akasofu, 2010.

“Hundreds of police officers in riot gear before dawn Tuesday raided the New York City park where the Occupy Wall Street protests began, evicting and arresting dozens of protesters from what has become the epicenter of the worldwide movement with other cities, such as Dallas and London likely to follow suit.The National Lawyers Guild has never openly declared themselves to be a Marxist organization. But, there is absolutely no daylight between their agenda and the agenda of any Marxist organization in the world.
Hours later, the National Lawyers Guild obtained a court order allowing the protesters to return with their tents to the park, where they have camped for two months. The guild said the injunction prevents the city from enforcing park rules on the protesters who are now looking for squatters rights, despite park rules banning camping overnight.”
“about 70 dump truck loads of trash and debris were hauled from the [Occupy Portland] camps over the weekend.”Occupy Porland is a perfect example of what Frank Miller had to say about the enormously destructive spoiled brats in the Occupy mobs.
“Just a few days after the U.S. said it would delay approval of an oil pipeline that would boost Canadian exports to the U.S., Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Sunday the country would push to sell its crude to Asian markets instead.”So, thanks to the political cowardice of the Obama administration, the USA is likely to lose out on jobs and energy at a time when we desperately need both.
“Setting the stage for a historic constitutional confrontation over federal power, the Supreme Court on Monday granted three separate cases on the constitutionality of the new federal health care law, and set aside 5 1/2 hours for oral argument, to be held in March.”
“‘Occupy’ is nothing but a pack of louts, thieves, and rapists, an unruly mob, fed by Woodstock-era nostalgia and putrid false righteousness. These clowns can do nothing but harm America…
In the name of decency, go home to your parents, you losers. Go back to your mommas’ basements and play with your Lords Of Warcraft.
Or better yet, enlist for the real thing. Maybe our military could whip some of you into shape.”
“One San Francisco police officer was slashed by a razor and another had his uniform torn and cheek cut in a clash with Occupy San Francisco protesters Saturday afternoon”
“Authorities were investigating an alleged sexual assault Saturday evening inside a tent at Dilworth Plaza, where Occupy Philadelphia protesters have been camped out for more than a month…
The suspect was arrested shortly after the 911 call. Authorities believe both the woman and the suspect were participants in the Occupy Philadelphia encampment”
“By dutifully reporting individual incidents but not reporting on the growing scope and size of Occupy Wall Street lawlessness, the MSM is willfully covering up the violence, vandalism, and anti-Semitism that truly does define this movement…
What I’ve collected below is far from comprehensive but still shows over 75 incidents of sexual assault, violence, vandalism, anti-Semitism, extortion, perversion, and lawlessness.
The MSM could easily tell the story of how this violence-prone movement is becoming an increasing threat to our society. After all, my research below is the result of nothing more than Twitter and Google. Among others, The New York Times, Washington Post, Politico, and the LA Times have willfully chosen not to use the resources at their disposal to give the public an honest look at this growing menace. In their partisan minds, truth doesn’t trump agenda.”
“[This project] has been subject to 36 months of review - dutifully following a prescribed process that resulted in thousands of pages of documentation”After all that bureaucratic red tape, Obama -- scared to death of alienating either base -- played the coward, kicked the can down the road, put the blame on the State Department and destroyed what little confidence anybody in the private sector might have had that there was any chance of creating jobs and doing business under the capricious tyranny of this loony tunes administration.
“The Obama administration… announced Thursday that it would review the route of the disputed Keystone XL oil pipeline, effectively delaying any decision about its fate until after the 2012 election…
The move is the latest in a series of administration decisions pushing back thorny environmental matters beyond next November’s presidential election…
Mr. Obama said in an interview with an Omaha television station last week that he would make the ultimate decision about the pipeline, but sought to portray Thursday’s announcement as solely a State Department matter and not the result of political calculation…
TransCanada said that it would work with the State Department to find a new route, but warned that delay could kill the project, and with it tens of thousands of construction and related jobs and billions of dollars in tax revenues.”
“One man was killed after gun shots rang out near 14th and Broadway in downtown Oakland…
According to witnesses, two men in the [Occupy Oakland] encampment got into an argument which escalated into gunfire…

“Members of Occupy Denver sent a news release to 7NEWS this week that said they have elected a leader: Shelby, a 3-year-old border collie.”
“The weaknesses exposed by today's test of the emergency alert system are unacceptable.”
“the broadcast network news outlets of ABC, CBS and NBC ran a total of 84 stories on the sexual harassment allegations against Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain in the week following Politico publishing its hit piece.Now back to the issues…
That is more coverage than they gave to Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's connections to domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, convicted real estate developer Tony Rezko, or America-hating Rev. Jeremiah Wright throughout the entire campaign.”
“The Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, and tropics have all cooled substantially, consistent with the onset of another La Nina, with the tropics now back below the 1981-2010 average…
the temperature free-fall continues so I predict November will see another substantial drop in global temperatures…
taking a line from our IPCC brethren… While any single month’s drop in global temperatures cannot be blamed on climate change, it is still the kind of behavior we expect to see more often in a cooling world.”
“The 3rd order polynomial fit to the data (courtesy of Excel) is for entertainment purposes only, and should not be construed as having any predictive value whatsoever.”
“After more than a month of protest demands for better employment opportunities and benefits, Accuracy in Media saw fit to test their desires with...employment applications. Our ‘headhunters’ were treated to every excuse as to why these jobs aren't good enough for them. We guess middle management opportunities with healthcare and 401k benefits aren't desirable anymore.”
“Dana1981 is a 29-year-old Prius driver and the owner of several other alternative vehicles who has mistakingly received a bachelor degree in astrophysics and a master degree in physics, so he or she became a self-described environmental scientist who is ‘passionate’ about the climate hysteria.”Click here to see Dana1981 on what he imagines to be his planet saving electric moped.
“Some 50 Occupy Wall Street protesters saw red yesterday -- giving an enthusiastic welcome to a genuine communist…
While he was speaking about the revolution, most of the demonstrators in Zuccotti Park were making plans for a long, cold winter…
‘those occupying Liberty Plaza [Zuccotti’s former name] ... are in need of emergency supplies crucial for cold-weather survival,’ organizers said on their Web site…
Nick Hommen, 29, a volunteer from Salem, Ore., who was handling donations, said some demonstrators were taking advantage of people’s generosity.
‘We can’t afford to keep buying new tents. It’s ridiculous the sense of entitlement people feel,’ Hommen said.”
