Settled science is an oxymoron. Remember that the original climate hockey stick work depended on raw data that was "accidentally" erased. To this ignorant red neck, that sounds like the scientific equivalent of the dog ate my homework. As someone with a little bit of statistics training, I have always been amazed that climate scientists are willing to use less than 150 years of rigorous temperature records and proxies for earlier observations to predict temperature patterns that unfold over thousands and tens of thousands of years. For just one example, look up the patterns of Lake Missoula glacial floods over time. During a 2000 year period between 15,000 and 13,000 years ago, ice dams would build up a huge amount of water, then burst. Geological evidence indicates that this happened at least 25 times. Missoula is a town of about 45,000 people today. There is no lake. (I used to live in Missoula.) It's clear that temperatures varied widely over the period of time before man was a factor. Anthropomorphic global warming has always struck me as extreme hubris.

A Call for Healing
Democrats Call for Healing the Country
Feb 8, 2014
Warren Buffet, Rent Seeker
Warren Buffet needs corporate welfare
because he's a big Democrat fund raiser. His railroad competes with the
Keystone Pipeline, so he's an environmentalist. He got rich buying businesses
at estate tax sales, so he thinks the death tax is only fair. Isn't it time for
Conservatives to start to question Liberal motives? They say we start wars to
make money. Why can't we say, early and often, that they use any excuse to
increase government power and then sell regulatory relief for campaign
contributions? Given how even low information voters feel about the government,
I think this would be an easy sell.
Media Bias Prevents Republican Use of IRS Weapon
Actually, the double standard of the Pravda
Press means that Republicans can't use the IRS to target opponents. Nixon did it, along with the Watergate cover
up. It was a strong second reason Nixon
was driven from office. When a Democrat
uses the IRS to harass opponents and then stonewalls a Congressional
investigation, the Pravda Press doesn't think the story is worth covering. End result is the Democrats can get away with
it, as they are doing right now, and the Republicans can't.
Pravda Press Predictable Lies
This article is a prime example of the Pravda Press in
action. Every possible Republican is fatally flawed. Any possible
Democrat is an interesting possibility with lots of advantages. Is the
author reporting this article as an in-kind contribution to the Democratic Party?
Clinton left people she was responsible for protecting unprotected,
unsupported and ultimately dead. Nobody was fired, reprimanded or even
scolded publicly for this criminal negligence. Clinton says at this point
what happened doesn't matter, and the Pravda Press accuses Republicans of
Benghazi Syndrome for pursuing an investigation. Chris Christie's aides
cause a traffic jam and the administration loudly starts a criminal
investigation. The Pravda Press piles on with all sorts of
unsubstantiated charges and then concludes Christie is too damaged to run for
president. When Democrats fail to patch Chicago potholes in neighborhoods
that "voted wrong," everybody laughs about it. The Democratic
Party passes Obamacare using fraudulent promises, brings up a website that
doesn't work and fails to build a back end to pass enrollment information
accurately to insurance companies, and the Pravda Press says Obamacare is
working well. After 5 years of the Smartest President Ever, the unemployment
rate is falling only because people have given up trying to look for work.
This is OK by the Pravda Press, because Bush did it. At this point,
reading the Pravda Press is mainly good for laughs at how far they will go to
support "the narrative" of the left. At this point, the facts
don't seem to matter.
