Energy Dumb Dana Shows His Face

May 13th, 2009 · Comments Off on Energy Dumb Dana Shows His Face

Energy Dumb Dana Rohrbacher showed his face on the House floor with a studied effort at willful ignorance a year ago several weeks before Senate Republicans stooped to the lowest forms of obstructionism to avoid having to have a substantive and meaningful debate about Global Warming legislation. Rohrbacher’s speech is worth a few minutes of […]

Bachman-Horner Overdrive of Global Warming Denial

April 10th, 2009 · 5 Comments

Michele Bachman, (R-MN-6), held a global warming denial promoting townhall without, par for the course for, even taking a question at the “townhall”. This session, which featured a presentation by Global Warming denier Chris Horner is most accurately described, as per the title, as the “Bachman-Horner Overdrive of Global Warming Denial”. Despite an MIT professor’s […]

NY Times: ‘He Says, She Says’ … who are we to judge?

April 10th, 2009 · 5 Comments

The New York Times seems to exude, at times, jealousy for the Washington Post for The Will Affair. Why should The Post be singled out, some at the Gray Lady must be thinking think, for shoddy journalistic approaches when it comes to Global Warming issues? Caught throughout his career at serial deception after serial deception, […]

Obstinate idiocy: C02 = Life

March 31st, 2009 · 2 Comments

The latest fad, it seems, amid the denier/skeptic/delayer community is to be emphasizing that Co2 is plant life. This has been seen in the past weeks from witnesses in Senate testimony, from Republican Congressmen in hearings, in blog posts galore, and in conservative columns and editorial pages. For example, this was core to The Washington […]

Rush’s Hot Air … heats the globe

March 10th, 2009 · 5 Comments

Many in the Republican “base” found John McCain an outrage, his policy views and perspectives abhorrent, not least of which that he deigns to consider reality in stating that Global Warming is a serious issue meriting attention (even if his policy prescriptions aren’t enough). Well, what does the Glorious Leader of the Republican Party have […]

Glenn Beck = Stalin: Assassination of a Climate Scientist

March 8th, 2009 · 2 Comments

A guest post from the ever-insightful and passionate about science APSmith. That would be character assassination of course – we’re talking about wingers here. So, this past Wednesday morning on Glenn Beck’s TV show, he bizarrely focuses on a climate blogger and scientist, Michael Tobis of Only In It For The Gold. Beck claims that […]

WashPost Ombudsman steps up and steps in it … Plus another Will fabrication …

February 28th, 2009 · 12 Comments

Andrew Alexander, The Washington Post‘s new Ombudsman, has really stepped into it big time with the mounting Will scandal due to his distortions, deceptions, and dishonesties when it comes to Global Warming columns. Alexander sought, it seems, to calm the raging seas by stepping up with a piece that will appear in tomorrow’ Post but […]

Will directly lies … again … and again … and again …

February 26th, 2009 · Comments Off on Will directly lies … again … and again … and again …

There are much more enjoyable things to spend one’s time on and one’s blogging efforts than having to fact check George F Will because Fred Hiatt’s Washington Post is clearly unwilling to do so. In tomorrow’s, yet-to-be-published OPED, George Will steps up with blustery outrage that his (dis)honor has been stained. Amid his disingenous truthiness, […]

Will’s whining … defending the indefensible …

February 26th, 2009 · 10 Comments

According to Zachary Roth, George Will and The Washington Post Writers’ Group are doubling up when it comes to disinformation and truthiness when it comes to Global Warming issues. Roth got an early look at tomorrow’s (late tonight’s) Will column. [Now published.] We thought we were done with the topic of George Will and climate […]
