Atomic Insights blog has an outstanding article on the Atomic Power issue.
It is, indeed, a deeply spiritual issue. Just the same way that Globull Smarming is deeply spiritual. That is, it is based on belief rather than facts. Algore refused to get pinned down by facts in the committee hearings he attended. No other “true believer” in GW will get pinned down either. They counter that it is “settled science”. Which, translated, means “I won’t talk about it”. The same with nuclear power.
I wanted to copy and paste this article but it is by the AP and I am afraid of their tight copyright policy.
It is heartening to see someone else that is more concerned about the unborn. I see the libs are still using their fallacious “unsafe, back-alley” procedures argument.
The site Greenie Watch has this article. There are actually a collection of articles which are well worth the time to peruse. Forward this to your true-believer friends. It will make their heads explode.
The author opines that AG will not accept the challenge. I agree with him. AG is at least smart enough to know that his position is based on faith rather than science or fact.
When you read this article you science-types better be near the bathroom in case you throw up. The blogs intro to this article reads,
“It’s Not Just Science, It’s “Post-Normal” Science:
And its “post-normal” science that “proves” global warming. Mike Hulme, the founding director of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, argues in the Guardian that while scientific evidence may cast doubt on Global Warming why believe science? When a larger truth must be expressed, then “post-normal” science must be employed.”
I have been watching CNN this morning (forgive me, it’s the only news channel this hotel has). Their lead story is about a mass shooting in NYC where an armed animal went into a pizzeria and started shooting. He also shot two auxiliary policemen who were in the shop but were unarmed. Their auxiliary (volunteer) police cannot carry weapons. (Of course not. They might shoot someone. Like an animal that comes into a pizza restaurant and starts shooting.) One of their other main stories is about an investigation into some kind of shooting that occurred there earlier in the week. I am shocked. I thought Mayor Bloomberg, with his highly touted buy-back program and his tough stance on weapon possession had just about stamped out gun violence.
I found a wonderful new blog from, I believe, the U.K. called EU Referendum. The author covers a number of topics such as Globull Smarming and the U.S. circus. The latest article is a great piece on Darfur and the new-found concern about it by the left in our country. I’ll shut up and let you read it. It’s worth your time.
An article in the UPI has this “revelation” about environmentalism. For me this is one of those DUH moments. If this guy keeps telling the truth like this, they are going to pull his license to be a politician.
We will be on vacation this next week. We’ll try blogging from the road but if there’s no activity we will be back.
In the meantime, we are rejoicing, along with a lot of other people over the D.C. circuit courts overturning of the restrictions on gun ownership in the District. You can expect crime to take a plunge. How much, I am anxious to see. I’m sure the folks at the NRA will stay on top of that. I’m sure the Brady bunch trotted out all the old, tired arguments against it. You know the ones – about gunfights in the streets, stepping out of your flat and having to step over the dead bodies from the night before. Don’t laugh. Every time there is CC bill enhancement on the schedule for some legislature in the country, you can count on the Brady bunch to be there with this same bleak forecast for the outcome of whatever law is proposed. (I use “the Brady bunch” to describe the whole panoply of anti-gun freaks.)
This is incredible. How can anyone still defend the public schools after statistics like this come out? The article at Vox Popoli shows that kids are getting short-changed. But wait! The numbers are along racial lines. Could there be a cultural element here? Could there be an influence from outside the school that are influencing this? Could mom and dad have an affect? Or in the case of, especially the black race, mom alone? Maybe there’s something to what Bill Cosby has been preaching coast to coast about blacks taking some responsibility about the sorry state of their culture and race. Maybe all that “free” money hasn’t been free all these years. And hispanics need to realize that we in this country, the sons and daughters of LEGAL immigrants came here with a work ethic that insured that our country would grow and prosper. That’s the same prosperity that you are here to ship back to your “other” country as fast as you can get down to the Western Union office. Thank heaven for the orientals. They came here with both a work ethic and a desire for education. That’s the reason that the Univ. of Cal. – Berkeley felt they had to put a cap on the number of American-orientals they would admit to their graduate school. The A-o’s were taking every seat available based on qualifying scores.
What a screwed up mess. At least, if you tested those high school kids on their ability to put on a condom or their self-esteem, they would have aced the test.
This is too much. Brutally Honest has an article that reports that the French scientist, Claude Allegre, who was among the first to sound the alarm about the dangers of global warming is now recanting. To quote the article, “Dr. Allegre now sees global warming as over-hyped and an environmental concern of second rank.”
The article continues, “To his surprise, the many climate models and studies failed dismally in establishing a man-made cause of catastrophic global warming.”
Well, do tell. Welcome to the crowd, Dr. Allegre.
Some of you are aware of the letter that some members of the Nat’l Assoc. of Evangelicals sent imploring that something be done to stop Globull Smarming. I was embarrassed, as I usually am when pastors start to talk about scientific things. I have always felt that if they will stick to pastoring, I will stick to science.
Focus on the Family’s leader, Dr. Jim Dobson has published an open letter to the signers of that infamous letter. I hope it does some good but I’m not optimistic. Not when you have the media contact for the NAE , a Rich Cizik, making an assinine statement that, “it’s indisputable that human activity has contributed to global warming”. If it’s indisputable then why are so many climatologists disputing it? He has also stated that the church needs to take control of population control. He sounds out of control. I think he needs to take a deep breath and go back and read some of the dire forecasts of the seventies that predicted that by the turn of the century we would be stepping all over each other, there would be that many people on earth, based on an extrapolation of the then-current birth rate. What an ass.
Thank you, Dr. Dobson, for presenting a voice of reason and sense.
This is the title of an article by Nathan Bradfield over at Stop the ACLU. He hits all the high spots in the refutation of evolution. He misses one that I have often wondered about. If there were “transitional forms” that evolved why aren’t there any of those transitional forms still around today. With all the millions of species you would think the odds would have at least one transitional specie around somewhere yet. Anyway, he has an excellent statement.
