BABY, IT'S COLD OUTSIDE...OR A LITTLE LESS WARM - AT 9:03 P.M. ET: With all the foreign news, Americans may not be aware that a "global warming" bill is making its way through the Democratic-controlled Congress, all based on the "science" that's become religious doctrine to a good chunk of Washington. But reader John Catherwood alerts us to a great piece at Real Clear Politics on how the global-warming scare is becoming less scary in Australia, thanks in part to a major scientist who's had the courage to come forward and expose the hokum, and a journalist who's had the intellectual honesty to admit that he'd been wrong:

Al Gore, go soak your head.
Probably not worth reading, any more than his book is.
Well as long as you maintain an open mind, I guess all is well. Exactly when did you become a true believer?
