I attribute much of the recent rapid rise of the skeptics to the ongoing effects of ClimateGate. Yet, in a sense, the e-mails that were sprung from East Anglia did nothing more than confirm what most skeptics already suspected. Lawrence Solomon, author of The Deniers, has written an unusually good summary in the form...
We have been awestruck by the audacity of the global warming scam. If taken to fruition, it will destroy freedom and democracy, devastate the economies of the modern world, and concentrate unimaginable power and wealth in the hands of a small international group of politically connected criminals. Organized through the United Nations, scientific research...
They’re at it again. The world-government wannabes of the UN have summoned 192 nations to meet in Bonn, Germany, in the second week of April to plan another attempt to impose an unelected global government on us in the specious name of Saving The Planet. The Planet, of course, was Saved 2000 years ago,...
Yesterday, I wrote that the IPCC should be shut down and that the core conspirators should be hunted down and prosecuted. That commentary did not go far enough. To avoid break-down of the modern world, the IPCC must be condemned and steps taken to assure that similar activities are not started in the future....
Perching as I do close to the fulcrum of American politics and culture (those political-spectrum tests place me slightly to the left of center; my mostly liberal family thinks I’m well to the right), I’m fascinated by symmetries between the two ends of the seesaw. Pointing these out  observing, for instance, that Barack...
The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has announced yet another “flaw†in their reports. It’s time – once and for all – to be very clear about the obvious. There are serious conclusions to be drawn from the fact that the “flaws†in the UN reports produced bias in only one direction....
In less than a year well over a thousand independent groups have sprung up around the nation to organize and demonstrate against the attempted government takeover of entire industries, high taxes, crippling debt, and the agenda of President Barack Obama. While many have ridiculed and guffawed about the “teabaggers,†these motivated and angry voters...
The Wall Street Journal reports that lawmakers are working on a national biometric identification card all American workers would eventually be required to obtain. The “national ID” thing again. Let’s do a little quick catching up, with a reprint of a 2001 article; Too late to stop national ID. “Imagine a state in which...
Al Gore made an appearance on a Norwegian television program last night. (video link expired) A more impressive move would have been to have accepted the invitation to appear before the US Senate, which could conceivably lead to criminal charges. He has thus far failed to convince the world that the Earth is headed...
Mexico, if left alone, would be a reasonably successful and stable country of the upper Third World. It isn’t Haiti, isn’t Bangla Desh, isn’t a dying patient with multiple tubes in every orifice. If not strong-armed into chaos, it would be all right. But the United States won’t leave it alone. Washington is pushing...
Recent events on Capital Hill not only provide some significant insight into the severity of misandry in modern American society, but also point to a culture that struggles rather feebly to get a grip on the problem; a struggle highlighted by the fact that the word misandry itself -the hatred or contempt for men...
You may have seen the recent story about the 41-year-old doctor who graduated from medical school in 2003 with student-loan indebtedness of $250,000 that has since swelled to more than $555,000. She is now scheduled to pay $990 per month until she is 70 years old. Ouch! This is an extreme example of a...
Bill Nye. OK, here’s another one. What do normal people call a prolonged heating of the Earth’s atmosphere? ……… Summer. MSNBC’s Bill Nye “the science guy†has been the regular butt of jokes as a result of his ceaseless and absolute defense of the global warming industry; with “scientific” arguments that include the fact...
Inspired for the most part by an article written by Guardian science correspondent Ian Sample, some by an article by Pulitzer Prize op-ed columnist Thomas L. Friedman in the New York Times, as well as others I’ve read over the past couple of years, I decided to try my hand at environmental journalism. Feel...
Sex-for-money arrangements are a controversial subject in our culture. However, some seem worse than others. For example, consider the growing number of middle-class young women in places like the UK and Japan who are reportedly paying their way through college by doing sex work. Most people would agree that there is a qualitative difference...
White House honchos and others use the term “communication failure†to explain the inability of Congress to pass healthcare legislation and other key parts of President Obama’s agenda. Such reasoning assumes the bills deserve passage in their current forms. That, however, is another topic. This week’s topic looks at why, from a communication standpoint,...

Imagine that one day you see, in all seriousness, an announcement regarding the upstart of a male studies program at a major university that has been developed to address, research and educate people on the effects of misandry that is practiced against men and boys across the western world.
As a poster child for liberal energy policies throughout the country, Pennsylvania’s Governor Ed Rendell has issued the edict to grow the state’s energy resources greener. Huge sums of taxpayer-supplied subsidy and stimulus have been funneled into the greening of Pennsylvania’s energy supply. These funds are artificially diverted by the governor from other more...
High and/or rising unemployment is always a political liability for a president, and so Barack Obama has taken the offensive in trying to persuade the American people that his team can get Americans back to work. In November, Obama took credit for having created 640,000 jobs. That audacious assertion was less than persuasive, coming...
