Al Gore and his rich global warming friends are probably packing up and off to Florida and/or the Caribbean for the long frigid winter. So this must be the pattern. Come May they start up again blaming every warm weather event on Global Warming right through the fall, and as soon as it gets cold, off to the south! But in the meantime at least we will all have fresh meat to throw at them with another record cold winter, with no response whatsoever from Gore and his band of global climate frauds!

Virginia police can now force you to unlock your smartphone with your fingerprint Summary: A circuit judge likened police forcing smartphone owners to unlock their device with a fingerprint akin to providing a DNA sample or an actual key. Is nothing sacred anymore? A Virginia circuit court judge ruled this week that smartphone users can be compelled to give up their fingerprint, but not their passcodes, allowing police to search their devices. First reported by local Virginia news, the decision-making case in question surrounded a man charged with attempting to strangle his girlfriend. A video purporting to show the incident...

One weird thing I noticed about the election this year is there seem to be an inordinate amount of canvassing going on in neighborhoods. I thinkt he Democrat party is doing this inordinate amount of canvassing in order to say that they "Got out the vote" while they stuff the Ballot boxes for their people. A lot of people expect a Republican Landslide, but I doubt that will happen, I think the amount of voter fraud this year on behalf of the Democrats will be INSANE! Just look at LaRaza sending out info on pollistations that don't take ID, or...

MCALLEN, Texas -- The leader of a border militia group who was arrested earlier this week on federal weapons charges had a suspected explosive device in his room, court records obtained by Breitbart Texas show. Federal agents arrested Kevin “KC” Massey earlier this week at a local motel in the border city of Brownsville. When agents searched his room they discovered an ammunition can filled with ammonium nitrate and fuel, an inventory of the items seized by agents with the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives show. Agents also seized an AK-47 with six loaded magazines, a loaded handgun...

Wouldn't that be a great poll question for the GOP or some education minded conservative group to have commissioned? How about Fox News? I would love to know the percent of eligible voters who know this name. I bet it is less than 30%.

On Thursday October 23, 28 European leaders met at a summit in Brussels to reach a climate deal that would build on previous targets of a 20 percent cut in greenhouse gases, a 20 percent boost in the use of renewable sources, and a 20 percent increase in energy efficiency, from the benchmark year of 1990, by 2020.

Common Core could be called ObamaEd. It's as much a signature issue as ObamaCare. Indeed, it has the same goals: more government power, more control of individual citizens, more jobs and money under White House control. In short, Common Core is Obama's baby. A Democrat who opposed Common Core would be accused of stabbing the President in the back. As a practical political matter, Democrats cannot be against Common Core. And that alone is ample justification for keeping them out of office. Common Core is a nightmare that everyone should be against.If you don't know how bad it is, check...

White House officials are pushing Govs. Cuomo and Chris Christie to dial down their mandatory quarantine rules and let the feds decide how to keep the deadly Ebola virus from spreading in the United States, sources told The Post on Sunday. “They are furious [with Cuomo and Christie] and can’t believe they rolled out [the regulations] without consultation, particularly since it’s still all federal officials doing the screening at the airports,” one source told The Post. The governors’ rules require that all aid workers returning from West Africa be quarantined for 21 days, even if they show no sign of...

Americans are afflicted by a President and his administration that for political and environmental reasons are costing them trillions in needless, senseless energy costs

Help Freepers! How can we effectively completely eliminate fleas from the house. We are getting rid of the cat immediately. A long time ago, one could buy Lindane, but I believe that has been banned. Would appreciate any advice on how to rid the house permanently of the little buggers. To save you words, I already know about he egg cycle thing from previous experience. Just can't find any Lindane.

I've heard and read spurious posts about 'mysterious white vans', 'unmarked buses', etc. allegedly transporting illegals to the interior of the country. I thought it was just conspiracy-theory/tin-hat stuff, save for the hard-to-ignore reports of clusters of outbreaks of disease in various parts of the country, including my State. Seriously: It never rose above the level of a few mysterious videos posted online (at least that I ever saw). Just today I saw an odd vehicle for the first time: A bus with the logo for GEO Transport on the side. This is the company http://www.geogroup.com/geo_transport_inc This is what I...

FULL TITLE: Missouri police prepare for riots as they await grand jury decision over whether to charge officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of Michael Brown Missouri police have been brushing up on constitutional rights and stocking up on riot gear to prepare for a grand jury's decision about whether to charge a white police officer who fatally shot a black 18-year-old in suburban St. Louis. The preparations are aimed at avoiding a renewed outbreak of violence during the potentially large demonstrations that could follow an announcement of whether Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson will face a criminal trial...

Probably the most common argument regarding minority Americans who don't have any form or proper I.D. is by far that: If you were born in this country, "How Can You Not Have Any Form Of Identification"? Especially with Black Americans. They were all born here, yet the far left bitches and bitches that many of them don't have any forms of I.D. and it will be a burden for them to acquire a voter ID. Well didn't all black Americans get their first ID's in High School, then later a drivers license? We all know what it all boils down...

Rayna Rapp, a former abortion clinic worker, interviewed women getting genetic testing to find out if their babies would be disabled or have a genetic problem. Here are some things that people said about why they would abort a down syndrome baby: “The bottom line is when my neighbor said to me: “Having a “tard,” that’s a bummer for life.” … downsyndromebaby30“I have a cousin, my mother’s sister’s son, he’s retarded and 38. Oh, it isn’t Down’s, it’s something else. He’s done fine, he’s likely to live a normal life, to die at 80. But it’s really messed up the...

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)CNN’s Carol Costello apologized on Thursday for joking about a police recording of Bristol Palin. "Over the past few days I have been roundly criticized for joking about a brawl involving the Palin family. In retrospect, I deserve such criticism and would like to apologize," Costello said in a statement to POLITICO. On Wednesday, before playing a tape in which Bristol Palin describes an alleged altercation at a party in Wasilla, Alaska, Costello said, “This is quite possibly the best minute and a half of audio we’ve ever come across. Well, come across in a long time anyway.” In the...

A recent blog post on Sightline, an environmental blog in the Northwest, celebrated the gusher of dependable revenue to Washington State flowing from a steep carbon tax. The post showcases just why a carbon tax is a dangerous policy. As we at IER have been warning for years, the advocates of a carbon tax are fooling themselves if they think it will be calibrated to the “optimal” level reflecting the “negative externality” of greenhouse gas emissions. And in this debate the most foolish of all are the handful of vocal conservatives claiming that a new carbon tax will be used...
