This video is the rage among the Global Warming denial sect, as they pass it around and post it with great glee following Carlin’s death. Their RIP is a celebration that George was one of theirs. You got people around you. The country’s full of them right now, people walking around all day long, every […]

Pat Sajak: Gl_b_l W_rm_ng D_n_ _ r ( _ssh_l_!)
June 27th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Well, the man who needs aditzy blond to help him spell words has come out of the woodworks. Pat Sajak is a strong-worded Global Warming Skeptic.

Fair and Balanced strikes WashPost Global Warming reporting … again
June 26th, 2008 · Comments Off on Fair and Balanced strikes WashPost Global Warming reporting … again
Earlier this week, two Washington Post articles demonstrated, yet again, the Post’s editors’ dedication to modeling Post reporting after Faux News when it comes to Global Warming: “Fair and Balanced” over objective and truthful.

Oily Green: Time for Washing up Some Washington Greenwashing
June 15th, 2008 · 3 Comments
The Washington Nationals have a beautiful new stadium. A tax-payer paid stadium. A stadium padded itself on the back for its green attributes. This beautifully green stadium is plastered with: advertisements for that every so environmentally friendly Exxon-Mobil. Yes, that Exxon-Mobil that has so happily (and generously) supported global warming denialists as a path to […]

500? Perhaps in Dog Years?
June 14th, 2008 · 5 Comments
Have you noticed? Right now, much of Iowa and the Midwest is suffering through a 500 year flooding event. Does it seem like 100 and 500 year events are becoming ever more frequent? If your answer is yes, your impression fits with the scientific analysis. Now, we have to be careful (extremely careful) in the […]

Faux News: “Most Republicans crazy like a man stuck in a toilet”
June 10th, 2008 · Comments Off on Faux News: “Most Republicans crazy like a man stuck in a toilet”
Truth be told, the title isn’t an exact quote, but it isn’t far off. Yesterday on Fox News, anchor Shep Smith was recounting the story of a man in Pennsylvania who was stuck in a port-a-potty. According to the York Daily Record (PA), the man was “drunk, naked and wedged up to his waist […]

The Lieberman-Warner Climate inSecurity Act (CISA) can accurately be described as the Coal Subsidy Act. With all the embedded subsidies and support for the coal industry, why is the coal industry fighting the Coal Subsidy Act? In short: not enough.

Truthiness into the inbox …
June 4th, 2008 · 6 Comments
It had seemed that ABEC had bit the dust, having been transformed into ACCCE.

Waving a white flag … Samuelson and Global Warming
June 4th, 2008 · 5 Comments
Robert J. Samuelson simply doesn’t believe in America, in American ingenuity, in Americans ability to rise to challenges and solve problems. From an acquaintance, This week’s Newsweek magazine carries a column by Robert Samuelson, titled Just-Call It Cap-and-Tax. Samuelson likes to say he’s not an economist. In this column, he certainly showed that to be […]
