Poker Strategy Tips From Cancun

When you have a weak hand, often the only recourse is not to fold, but to use your bets to push others out of the game. It appears climate "scientists" are accomplished bluffers. Despite growing dissent on the anthropogenic nature of global warming, the release of e-mails which bring into question the validity of the science used to justify that argument, and the constant revelation of poor science in the UN's IPCC climate change report, the opening day of the Cancun climate summit saw these scientists calling for WWII style rationing in developed nations to reduce carbon emissions. You know, carbon, the element that is the basis of all life on Earth.

If there has ever been more reason to believe that the political agenda behind climate science is the redistribution of resources (if everyone is poor, no one is) I can't think of the basis.

Sorry. The link didn't work before. It should now as the story is here. Basically, it looks like we bailed out the UAW without ever knowing.

I can't even comment on this, I'm too disgusted.

And to the Surprise of No One

A United Nations official has admitted that the goal of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is to redistribute wealth from developed countries to the non0developed countries. The plan is explicitly endorsed by Obama advisor Larry Summers and dark lord of the sith George Soros. It is far past time for the United States to withdraw from the UN as the liberal group clearly has interests directly opposed to those of the US.

Obama Administration's Disdain for Constitutional Restraints Again on Display

The chairman of the FCC appears to be pushing forward with plans to implement net neutrality rules despite the fact that a federal court already ruled it does not have the power to do so. This administration's disregard for democracy and the United States Constitution is unbelievable.

Democracy is so Much Easier When the People Aren't Watching

Senator Jay Rockefeller (D. WV) has said it would be easier to get things done if FOX News and MSNBC weren't on the air and that a part of him would like the FCC to ban them. I'll give him credit for being a bipartisan idiot. Freedom of the press was designed to protect and encourage opinion. Does anyone really believe that the founding fathers were worried that the press might accurately report the day to day news? It was the suppression of opinion that they were concerned about. I may not like what the jackasses on MSNBC say and there are a number of times FOX turns me off because of blatant bias, but I would never shut them up. I will only say when they are wrong and hope that an educated populace would know the difference.

Anchors Aweigh, My Boys! Anchors Aweigh.

Yes, that's spelled correctly, it's the Naval Academy fight song. Members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, who do not represent American citizens, as I've written before, are pushing to get the DREAM Act (such a nice name) passed during the lame-duck session of Congress. The Act would give a path to citizenship for children under the age of 16 who were brought into the country illegally. Again, sounds nice enough. Why punish kids for the actions of their parents? Of course, there is the back door benefit that once the kid is a citizen, it becomes impossible to deport the illegal parent. Hence the term "anchor baby". See? Nothing up this sleeve. It's magic.
