I’m not sure if the word “shameless” is strong enough. SCOAMF might work (CNN) President Barack Obama said Wednesday that the red line he outlined last year regarding Syria’s use of chemical weapons came from international treaties and past congressional action, and now it is time for the international community to make good on its […]

In terms of landfalling hurricanes, this seems to be what’s happening. It’s been over 7 years and 10 months since a major hurricane (category 3+) hit the United States. There has only been one barely a hurricane strike since 2008. Superstorm Sandy was not a hurricane at time of landfall. Hurricanes and tropical systems seem […]

Remember the days when John Kerry said that Iraq was the wrong war in the wrong place in the wrong time? When he and other Democrats, including President McBombypants, were constantly assaulting Operation Iraqi Freedom, which freed 50 million people from a brutal, murderous, torturous, rapist, limb cutting off, chemical weapons using regime which saw, […]

In discussing the uber-left book Christan Nation, I mentioned I generally avoid the heavily political fiction books (I don’t mind a bit of politics, but, keep it simple), but there are two I’ve read in the last year or so, An Act Of Self Defense by Erne Lewis and In Due Time by J.K. Jones, […]

I’ve already, like many others, beaten up on the recent paper claiming there is a 97% consensus of Hotcoldwetdry doom. Here’s Lord Christopher Monckton on the further destruction of the meme, doing a guest post at William W. Briggs (via Tom Nelson) A major peer-reviewed paper by four senior researchers has exposed grave errors in […]

This was just too precious to bury as an extra to the previous post on Syria. Leave it to DWS to go off the reservation (Politico) Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said the U.S. would be bolstered with support from “dozens†of international allies if the United States makes military strikes against Syria. […]

The NY Times has been doing a Hamlet schtick (to be or not to be), wavering back and forth regarding Syria on the opinion pages from both the Editorial Board and op-ed contributors (remember “Bomb Syria, Even If It’s Illegal“?). Today they find that Mr. Obama did the right thing in sending the whole mess […]

I suspect he was just trying to deflect attention away from that photo of him having an intimate meal with Assad (via Junk Science) (Naharnet) U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Monday the evidence for climate change was beyond dispute but it was not too late for international action to prevent its worst impacts.

Let’s be clear: some data shows zero warming since 1998. Some shows a decreasing global temperature. Most shows what is considered to be “statistically insignificant”, hence the reason I tend to use the Met Office data which shows a miniscule 0.14F increase since 1998 and minor 0.28F since 1990. But, the UN IPCC is extremely […]
