” The fact that “global warming” models are not doing a very good job of predicting actual temperatures has led to a shift in rhetoric, with “climate change” now being substituted. This is an issue that needs to be contested by scientists using science, not political muscle.”

Real scientists who aren’t leftist priests don’t get federal grant money, and don’t even get hired in the first place.

"Totalitarianism on the installment plan"

Dr. Sowell nails it, as usual.

Gov’t grants cause global warming.

How long will this country remain free?


Too late, we’re not free to think marriage is what it was for 5000 years. A man and a woman.
We’re not free to think laws should be enforced and fraudulently documented freigners should be deported.
The Ministry Of Propaganda comes down like a ton of bricks on those unfortunate enough to publicly dissent from the orthodoxy of the left.

Yep, the vast majority of grants go to leftist communists, especially in academia.

” Gov’t grants cause global warming.”

Last week, a newspaper said global warming may force women into prostitution.

Maybe...

But global warming DID cause a homosexual POTUS to make an arms deal with Iranian Islamic terrorists.

Nothing combats global warming like a good ol’ nuclear winter.

A Chik-Fil-A opened the other day in a Seattle suburb, and the Seattle Times food writer wrote an extremely snarky column about it, chastising Chik-Fil-A for the owner’s anti-gay marriage beliefs, and suggesting some other frou-frou restaurant as an option for a chicken sandwich. Among “tolerant” progressives, you can now have your business threatened simply for holding the same view of marriage that was virtually universal twenty years ago.

Though there are many possible tipping points of America’s death as a republic (I use Raich v Gonzales as one where the Commerce clause was interpreted to give federal government unlimited power), most of us would agree what we have is not what the Founders intended.

As a military veteran, I am not certain this country is worth defending anymore.

That kind of stuff is mind boggling. In a sane world that writer would immediately be fired but of course the Seattle Times is not run by sane people.

mediamatters.org has an article on this that has lots of links to other sources for this. Barbra Jordan is mentally challenged.
