Is it getting warm in here?

It is if you're Al Gore (or one of his fellow Warmists)...



If you're inclined to listen to facts, and be entertained at the same time, you'll enjoy this whiteboard presentation (below) by Roy W. Spencer, a former NASA climatologist and climate expert. In the clip, he explains the why the hysteria over global warming is overblown and illustrate the role energy plays in our lives.

Who knew facts could be so interesting?

Barack "Flip-Flop" Obama...



It's tough being a politician. Typically, if you're going to be effective, you have to compromise here and there to fulfill your promises and carry out an agenda.

There is, however, a term for those politicians who will do anything to grab and hold power (or to at least keep their heads above water): flip-flopper.

In a nice little article in the Telegraph-UK, our current Commander in Chief, Barack Hussein Obama, is taken to task for his blatant flip-floppery.

Making those flip-flops work for him...


1. Keeping Guantanamo Open

2. Bringing back military tribunals for terror suspects

3. Continuing renditions of terror suspects

4. Ordering military action in Libya without seeking Congressional authorization

5. Dropping Third Site missile defenses in order to appease the Russians

6. Letting Sudan off the hook for the Darfur genocide

7. Backing a federal Europe after defending national sovereignty

8. Pledging to restore America's standing in the world but lowering it instead

9. Dumping Mubarak in Egypt after calling him a "stalwart ally"

10. Killing the NASA manned space program

That's not all -- but it is enough....


Bonus: video flip-flop evidence...


More Obama flip-flops on display...

News from all over the place...

This being Friday, it's time for the weekly round-up of news...

Surprise! (Not a surprise.) - California's jobless rate inches higher

So who’s most concerned about California’s jobless rate at 12.6%? Dems, line forms to the left…


California - here it comes again...

If the Feds are saying1 in 3 Americans failed to return Census forms,” doesn’t that mean they know how many there people there are, anyway?...

From one of yesterday’s Tea Parties across the U.S.: "NBC Reporter To Black Man At Tea Party: 'Have You Ever Felt Uncomfortable?'" OK, how about now?...

Speaking of Tea Parties: What’s the real truth? Hint – not what you’ve been told.

Did the guy not see “Armageddon?” - Obama's asteroid goal tougher, riskier than moon


He didn't come back...

Attention bad guys in Arizona: Your “job” just got a whole lot dicier

Only three to five years? That’s kind of a lot of time, isn’t it? (No.)...

Attention Harry Reid: I hear Caesar’s Palace is looking for a greeter…


Prayer is your only hope...

So Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY) “…only sexually assaulted gay staffers.” I guess that clears that up…

If only they had outsourced their space program


Just wait til they try to get through to the call center...

Lame...

What’s with all the bowing and scraping???


First, bowing to the Saudi king (above), now the Japanese emperor. Next up, a curtsy for the queen?

I predict that these are not the 10 lamest predictions of modern times. But they’re close.

Ignoring solid science in favor of snake oil is not just lame…it can actually make you lame.

And speaking of snake oil…the most famous snake oil salesman of our lifetime was rebuked by a rather noisy crowd.


Would you buy a used carbon credit from this man?

Can you believe people are actually freaking out over the new doomsday flick, “2012?” Can you believe NASA is spending funds on a website to dispel the movie’s “myths?”

Ever wonder, “Where are those flying cars we were supposed to have…like in ‘The Jetsons?’” (Seriously? Have you never driven on a Southern California freeway? Do you really want people zipping around over your head in a car?)


Trust me. You do not want to see something like this in your neighborhood...

For a guy who has all the answers when it comes to our social, economic and political ills, it looks like he flunked geography.


"Born to Run?" Maybe. Geography whiz? Hardly...

I can’t tellIs this a.) lame; b.) illogical; or, c.) cool? (Maybe if it came with a pair of complimentary ears.)

Just because you own them, you think you should get free stuff?

King of Pop, Fans of Lameness? - According to LA’s Daily News, “The Michael Jackson memorial service cost the city of Los Angeles about $3.2 million, according to a new city report released Friday, an expense city officials justified spending because of the massive crowds they had anticipated at the July 6 event.”


Good luck with that budget deficit, Los Angeles...

Finally, if you’re going to dictate economic policy, shouldn’t you at least have a basic understanding of economics? Just askin’…
