A Challenge

Recently, on a Blog Post from way back, a commenter by the name of patriotman has been commenting on my blog, accusing me of not having any facts, because no government supported scientific group is willing to toe the line and commit Heresy.

The following is a short list of Scientific Papers that discuss Global Warming, and it's effects on Antarctica.

Long story short, Antarctica has been getting colder

Antarctic climate cooling and terrestrial ecosystem response

Executive Summary of the above, from 1986 to 2000, central Antarctic Valleys cooled .7 Celsius per decade with "Serious" ecosystem damage from the cold.

Positive Mass Balance of the Ross Ice Streams, West Antarctica

Executive Summary of the above, side looking radar shows that West Antarctic Ice is increasing at 26.8 gigatons/year. This reverses the previous melting trend that have been acting for the last 6,000 years.

Climate and atmospheric history of the past 420,000 years from the Vostok ice core, Antarctica

Executive Summary of the above, During the last FOUR interglacials going back 420,000 years, the Earth was signifigantly warmer than it is today.

And then, you have massive amounts of data just waiting to be turned into a graph at NASA GISS that shows overall cooling trends far away from the big cities, and warming treands the closer you get to cities such as New York City. Data which is hard to access for those of us who don't know how, because Jim Hansen, the "Opressed" and "Quieted" head of Climate Research for NASA goes out of his way to change what the science actually shows. The basis for this muzzling? He knows that he will lose his job should the truth about Global Warming, and it's Heliocentric Origins, becomes public knowledge.

Stimulus Protests

Its been a while since I last posted something to the blog, so I thought I would kick off the year with a bang.

As you may or may not be aware, anti-stimulus protests have cropped up all across the country. Well, we had one in my backyard today, and as promised over on my domestic policy blog, here are some photos from the event.





We arrived around 9:30 to find that there was already about 25 people where there with signs, waiting for the organizers to arrive. The Police where there, and had numerous cars around the place. They where nothing but helpful, and warned us whenever we were getting close to the building.














"No Moore Pork" was a commonly used slogan by the protesters, who where protesting against the stimuls AND Moore's vote for the package.




















As you can see from the coats, it was a COLD day. The above sign got a lot of praise as it showed up, and reflected the sentiment of the day.















There where around 75-100 people at the protest by the time I crossed the street to get pictures. And more kept coming. Still no sign of the media by this point, but both NBC and ABC would show up later on to get some video of it.















People began to group towards the center of the sidewalk and stretch out on either side. By this point, people where reaching the street on both sides of the building. Behind the protestors you can see the cops, who have blocked off the parking lot, and some of the cars parked on the street behind them.















I would say a Ten Year Great Depression in the United States as Europe pulled out in three is great supporting evidence on this one. These protesters where located on a corner lot next to the Office Building we where protesting in front of. It stretched down to the houses, and there where protesters beside me as I took this picture.















Protesters on that corner lot. There where roughly three hundred people there at this point. Many of which where signing up for e-mail alerts for more protests.















On the opposite side from where I was hanging out with people, down by the other corner, these signs where visible. The signs with innuendo where quite common, more so than I thought.

I like the sentiment that the one on the left had. Worst Congress indeed.















The main group for the protest, the speaker can be seen to the right of the main group.















The stuffed rabbit through me for a loop, but I loved the T-Shirt.
















This guy showed up late, with a sword in his back. He was very popular with the protesters.

Wish I had more pictures to show, but not all of them loaded to the computer very well, and the battery ran low. I will be better prepared for the march on saturday.

We are meeting at the J.C. Nichols Fountain and marching on Claire McCaskill's Office. Hope to see you there, and hope I have better batteries for the protest.

CNN

I never thought I would say this, especially now that Glenn Beck has transferred over to FOX, but thank you CNN.

Recently, on national cable television, CNN Meteorologist Chad Meyers stated

You know, to think that we could affect weather all that much is pretty arrogant. Mother Nature is so big, the world is so big, the oceans are so big – I think we’re going to die from a lack of fresh water or we’re going to die from ocean acidification before we die from global warming, for sure.

Dr. Jay Lehr, an environmental policy expert stated

If we go back really, in recorded human history, in the 13^th Century, we were probably 7 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than we are now and it was a very prosperous time for mankind. If go back to the Revolutionary War 300 years ago, it was very, very cold. We’ve been warming out of that cold spell from the Revolutionary War period and now we’re back into a cooling cycle. The last 10 years have been quite cool. And right now, I think we’re going into cooling rather than warming and that should be a much greater concern for humankind. But, all we can do is adapt. It is the sun that does it, not man.

Another meteorologist, Rob Marciano was quoted thusly about the Goracle's Movie, An Inconvenient Truth, before retracting his comments under a massive wave of threats against his credibility

There are definitely some inaccuracies. The biggest thing I have a problem with is this implication that Katrina was caused by global warming. Global warming does not conclusively cause stronger hurricanes like we’ve seen, by the end of this century we might get about a 5 percent increase.

The Coming Global Eco Court

First, we had the International Court of Justice in the Hague, then we had the International Criminal Court in the Hague, the next international court to take seat in the Hague will be the Global Court for Crimes Against the Earth.

Yes, that's right, the Goraclists seem to want to establish an International Criminal Court to punish those who violate the Kyoto Protocol.

So, when they are done there, who is next? Senator James Inhoffe of Oklahoma perhaps? The False Prophet of the Senate has been extremely vocal in his opposition to Global Warming over the years, and has helped to represent us Heretics on Capitol hill for years.

Perhaps it will be the Cooler Heads Coalition over at GlobalWarming.org. They have been some of the heads of the Heretics for years now.

Or maybe they will target Lord Lawson of Blaby, who published a book recently that was critical of the theory of Global Warming.

Or, it could be Tim Ball, Ph.D., the first Doctorate of Climatology in Canadian History. He has been harsly critical of the Goracle, and has received death threats as a result.

A couple quotes come to mind fromt he Founding Fathers of my beloved homeland come to mind.

A government big enough to supply you with everything you need, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have. - Gerald Ford

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen! - Samuel Adams

Remember people, the removal of your freedoms will come swiftly in the night, sneaking up to you, acclamating you to it's presence. Animate always for freedom and liberty, and never give up the soapbox.

So much to say

Well, it has been a busy couple of days.

First, it turns out that China has Carbon Credits. China? Carbon Credits? From the nation of Brown Air and Deadly Rivers? How is this possible? Well, it certainly isn't because they are cleaning up their act. The Yangtze and Yellow river are still so bad that they won't fish you out if you fall in (it is kinder to let the people drown than get fished out and die of the infections). And Beijing still has Brown Air that on the worst days makes visibility beyond four blocks difficult.

So where are they getting these Carbon Credits? Because the Chinese Communist Party forces abortions upon women pregnant with a third child. Yes, that's right, they are getting Carbon Credits because they are aborting children. Centrally Mandated Abortions at that. This isn't the sin of the US, with Voluntary abortions. This is strapping women to a steel slab and forcing the abortion regardless of whether the woman wants to do so.

It almost makes the Eco-Disaster that China is heading towards seem karmic.

Then, an Australian Minister has recently declared that in his opinion, those who advocate against Global Warming should have their citizenship revoked. But don't worry, he is a member of the Tolerant Left. Those who undergo "RE-EDUCATION" on the matter will be able to get their citizenship back.

So, now us Heretics are to have the Inquisition sicked on us if we live in Aussie Land eh? Well, they will be surprised at how many of us there actually are. Especially after the Australian Broadcasting Corporation put a page on their website that declares that Aussies who live past the age of FIVE are criminals because they have lived to long and used too much of the planet's resources.

If there are any Australians reading this, which I doubt, I mainly ever get hits from Kansas (or Rochester when ever I mention Hillary Clinton...), but on the off chance that there are, organize a protest against this. And let them know that the debate is not over.

I strongly encourage all my readers to go out and buy Red Hot Lies. I know that it is going on my Christmas list. And on the one that goes out to my liberal Grandmother at that. Maybe she will crack it open before she wraps it...

As my guitar gently weeps

It is a sad day for all of us Heretics. Michael Crichton died yesterday at the age of 66 from cancer. If you will recall, I had praised him previously for his book, State of Fear, in which he chronicled the Church against which we fight to this day.

But for me, he was more than just an Icon of Heresy. He was also a hero. I started writing in the summer of third grade, when my father, sick of having to watch Jurassic Park a thousand times a day, dropped the book in my lap and told me I couldn't watch the movie until I had finished the book. That night, my dad and I talked about the implications of Chaos Theory on Evolution for an hour and a half. I was a precocious child.

Since that day, I have been writing. And no matter what my other career ambitions, being a writer was always one of them. And so, Michael Crichton, I would like to say simply that you will be well and truly missed.

John Michael Crichton M.D. October 23, 1942 - November 4, 2009. Rest in Peace.

Rally in KC: Cross Posted to JesusLand

Well, that was fun. I went to the John Knox village today to hear Sarah Palin, and her running Mate John McCain (wait, did I get that backward..?) It was a long road to get there, First, I had to deal with a car wreck on I-435 that had reduced five lanes to one, backing up TWO highways. All the while, the rain was coming down, badly.

Then, I forgot about the lack of progress on US-69 and the Flying Ramp onto I-435. Annoying really. Finally, after getting on 435, braving the Bermuda Triangle of KC, and crossing into Lee's Summit, I finally arrived in Lee's Summit for the Rally, only to find that the line was stretched around four blocks and two corners.

Tryign to find a parking spot, I saw sixteen Palin look-a-likes. Wow, talk about a Fashion Icon. Finally, I find a parking lot that wasn't charging ten dollar donations for parking, and pulled in. I hoofed it up to the line, where I watched it stretch around another two corners. Chances of Getting In: Low.

Waited in line with a group of women, bashing Obama, chatting politics, trying to figure out what the people behind us are gonna o abotu not being able to get in.

Then the Cops come by, looking things over, making sure no one is getting too rowdy. They told us about an overflow area, and we took off, dragging a couple dozen people with us. People where handing out anti-McCain propaganda, should have brought somethign to burn it, but nope, didn't think of it.

Arrived in Overflow area, Rock This Town playing, int he second row. The Overflow area got crowded quickly as line deserters joined us. So crowded, seven people have climbed a tree. Wow, that is crowded. Press isn't too bad, people still observing space. Not sure how long that will last when signs get passed out.

And here come the signs, and here comes the press. And here coems the rain, drizzling on us, but oh well, better to stay here and hear the speech than to leave to soon and not get to hear it, doubt Rush is gonna JIP the speech today, jsut a campaign rally.

The Secret Service have come out in numbers. Wow, three of them movign through the crowds, checking bags, wanding, making sure no one's got a gun.

There they are, McCain and Sarah. People are screaming for Sarah, and she is just looking a litle flabbergasted, and she thought she was popular in Alaska...

Pressing flesh with us, John McCain is coming our way, Sarah and her husband are going the other way. WooHoo!!! I shook hands with John McCain!

He's coming back, tiem to shout out, "United States Naval Academy." May not go there, but I still support them, one of the hrdest schools int eh country and all. He talked to me!!! Guess he thoguht I had attended the school or something, and he thanked me for my service. Sorry John, I am going Coast Guard, not Navy. Still awesome.

Sarah is taking the stage inside, crowd is copying us, too busy chanting her name to let her speak. We got ourselves a REAL rockstar on out ticket.

She's talkign about the War in Iraq, Iraq War Vets are cheerign her on, mentions her son and how she wants a good commander in chief for that, very well done Sarah, keep playing that card, it's one of your best, they can't say you don't have a personal stake in it.

Good line, too bad I didn't get it jotted down completely: Choose between those who pursue change for the sake of their careers and those who seek careers to brign about change. Well said Sarahcudda.

Talking abotu Tax Cuts now: "Our reforms worked and we took off." Talking about the Tax Cuts and their effect on the economy. Glad we got someone who knows first hand the effects of lowered taxes ont eh people and the economy. Gonna make it hard for Biden and Obama to hit McCain on that.

Oh wow, she put the Alaska State "Checkbook" online. I hope she does the same thing for the Federal Budget, more transparency is always a good thing.

Heh, hitting Obama for getting $1 Billion in Earmarks in 3 Years. $333 million a year or $912 thousand a day. Wow, that's a lot of wasted money. I am glad that Palin has cut $0.5 Billion in Earmarks in her own state.

Talking about their $40 Billion Natural Gas pipeline through Alaska and Canada to the Lower 48. Talking about Nuclear Energy, Alternative Fuels, Drill here drill now. Sounds like Pickens plan to me. Must be because he is across town today, and will probably hear about it. If Pickens backs her, could be a HUGE political coup.

Says that American energy, with American workers and American energy will bring security and an improved economy.

McCain's turn, got a bigger cheer inside than outside, must be because Sarah told us to cheer for him. (Sorry McCain, but it is the way it is...) Telling Washington and us that "Change is coming." Guess the Obama people can keep hoping for Change, while we actually do somethign about it.

Claims he is going to drain the swamp (Heh, funny considering that's what D.C. actually was before we built the capitol there) and take on Special Interests. Claims that Earmarks breed corruption. He's right there, rtoo bad he won't have Line Item Veto like Sarah did back home in Alaska...

More of the Pickens plan coming through. Talking about how we need to stop buying oil from overseas, and stop sending $700 Billion to nations that are not friendly (If not hostile in Iran's case) toward the United States. No argument there.

Talking about using Tax Cuts and Incentives to help grow business and create jobs. Smart man, that McCain. Crowd goes wild at that one, we like having out taxes cut.

McCain asks if he can give us some straight talk. Crowd goes into chant about straight talk, McCain asks if we rehearsed that. Gets some good laughs from that.

Straight talk is about Lowering Taxes, Growing Business, Shrinking Government, etc. Gets a huge cheer from the people. Again, we like it when the Government lets us have more of our money.

Opposses Public Healthcare, wants to help Insurance Companies create responsible, low cost insurance costs. That gets huge roar, thoguht I heard a joke abotu going to the DMV for Healthcare out here, got a bigger one.

Obama supporters across the street from us. 15 or so. They are chanting and carrying on, the McCain supporters leaving are heckling them. I let loose with a few "Our Momma beats Your Obama." Gets laughs from our side and some death glares from the other side. Next time I am gonna find a copy of Glenn Beck's "Obama National Anthem" to play as loud as I can against our opponents. Might find some other ones as well, that will be fun to play to drown out our opponents.
