We Ain't Seen Nothin’ Yet

by Victor Davis Hanson "But as the world economy recovers, oil will probably surge back over $100 a barrel, increasing our oil import tab by 25 percent or more. The Obama administration, though, mostly is obsessed with subsidizing relatively small amounts of wind and solar power. It likely won't be long before angry motorists at the pump are demanding to know why we have not pushed for more development at home of still-plentiful natural gas and oil fields."

Oh my. Another warming advocate sees the light on Climategate

Rick Moran "People like Crook and George Monbiot in Great Britain (and so far, precious few others) have, to one degree or another, been honest enough to question themselves and their fellow advocates about the truth that has been revealed to them via the CRU hack. For this, they should be acknowledged as trying to be honest with themselves and their readers."

7 stories Barack Obama doesn't want told

Politico "The Obama White House argues that all of these storylines are inaccurate or unfair. In some cases these anti-Obama narratives are fanned by Republicans, in some cases by reporters and commentators. But they all are serious threats to Obama, if they gain enough currency to become the dominant frame through which people interpret the president’s actions and motives."

THE CLIMATE CHANGE CIRCUS (a summary)

Neal Boortz "But .. here's the kicker. I alluded to it at the beginning of this bit. Now these scientists at the East Anglia CRM have admitted that they disposed of the raw data they used to conjure up their tales of man-made global warming. Just in case you're not a scientist .. throwing away your raw data is considered a big-time no no. There is, however, one really big reason why you might want to do this - toss the raw data into the garbage - and that would be if the data doesn't support your "learned" conclusion."

Black Congressmen Under Investigation? Must Be Racism!

by Bernard Chapin "The title of the piece, “Racial Disparity: All active ethics probes focus on black lawmakers,” suggests the fashion by which political correctness trumps truth in our interesting times."....

The Latest on Climategate: University Will Release CRU Data

Pajamas Media "In much climate science, secrecy has been the norm and many scientists have in effect demanded that their conclusions be accepted without any way to scrutinize their research. Thus the nations of the world have been embarking on policies that could cost trillions of dollars based on little more than assurances that “we’re experts and you can trust us.”"

Political Cartoons by Eric Allie

Townhall

The Wilding of Sarah Palin

By Robin of Berkeley "What finally woke me up were the utterances of "bitch," "witch," and "monster" toward Hillary Clinton and her supporters early last year. I was shocked into reality: the trash-talk wasn't coming from conservatives, but from male and female liberals.".... "In the wilding of Sarah Palin, the Left shows its true colors. Rather than sheild the vulnerable, leftists will mow down any man, woman, or child who gets in their way. Instead of a movement of hope and change, it is a cauldron of hate."

Non-STARTer ; Another Obama diplomatic failure?

by Fred Barnes "Early decisions on arms control have come back to haunt Obama. He could have pushed for a simple five-year extension, the process for which is spelled out in the 1991 treaty. Or he could have sought an amended treaty. Instead, the administration took on the more complicated task of negotiating a new treaty."

Four Lakewood police officers shot and killed in 'ambush'

KING5, Seattle ""This was more of an execution. Walk in with the specific mindset to shoot police officers," Troyer said."....

Candid Camera Moments

by Victor Davis Hanson "Again, in all these incidents, there is a certain roughness and crassness that infuriates the public — e-mails nearly rejoicing over the death of a climate-change-skeptic, an obsequious president bowing before autocrats like the Chinese and Saudis, and community organizers gleefully offering advice on child prostitution."

The warmist PR con job

Clarice Feldman, AT "Chris Horner writing for Big Government reveals that the principle warmist blogsite, Real Climate, is a Fenton operation. Fenton Communications is the left wing PR operation that promoted the Alar scare and other bogus health scares, and are the poeple who created the infamous "General Betray Us" ad attacking Gneeral(sp) Petraeus. Emphasis added. David Fenton bio: "... Fenton leaked a damning (but false and unsubstantiated) report on Alar to CBS News. The report had not undergone scientific review, and was not based on human exposure to Alar. Nevertheless, Fenton and NRDC concluded that Alar caused cancer, particularly in children. CBS jumped at the release and aired a feature on “60 Minutes.” The nationwide panic that followed devastated apple growers across the country and forced Alar’s manufacturer to withdraw the product from the market." This guy is toxic.
