Has John McCain completely lost his marbles?

Public Safety Committee will hear bills already passed by the state Senate that would ban all semi-automatic rifles with detachable magazines, make it a crime to leave a gun unlocked when you’re out of the house and require those who own high-capacity magazines to get rid of them.

Actually I will try to take your rifle away. I was just lying about that to get elected, like I did about coal and just about everything else.

Remember when I said this after the election?

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

I was just lying about that too. The world revolves around me now.

We have very low sunspot activity and a possible La Nina forming. Now all we need is a big volcanic eruption.

What really happened to Navy SEAL Team 6?

In August 2011, the elite special forces unit suffered the worst battlefield calamity in its history. A Taliban fighter shot down a Chinook helicopter carrying 22 Navy SEAL Team 6 members in Afghanistan. All 38 persons on board — the Navy SEAL warriors, other U.S. military personnel and seven Afghan soldiers — were killed. Grieving family members have been demanding answers. They may now get some as Congress finally opens an investigation.

Navy SEAL Team 6 has attained international prominence for one reason: They were responsible for killing Osama bin Laden. They are American heroes. Yet, their own government betrayed them. Several days after the bin Laden operation, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. — in a pathetic attempt to spike the football and gloat — publicly revealed their central role in the raid. His revelations put a giant target on the backs of every Navy SEAL Team 6 member. A covert unit, whose mission is to operate in the murky shadows, was exposed as the group that eliminated al Qaeda’s chief mastermind. Mr. Biden’s reckless actions — followed by President Obama’s own words acknowledging the secret unit’s operation — jeopardized the Navy SEALs’ safety. Jihadists bent on revenge began an intense manhunt. The hunters now became the hunted.

Obama seems to be making a habit of getting American heroes in the Middle East, and then covering up and lying about it.  Everything is always about him, and getting even with humanity because his father didn’t love him.

• German’s electricity bills have doubled since 2000. (Germans pay about 40c a KWH.)
• Up to 800,000 Germans have had their power cut off because they couldn’t pay their bills.
• Germany’s renewable energy levy rose from €14bn to €20bn in one year as wind and solar expanded. German households will pay a renewables surcharge of €7.2bn this year alone.
• Germany has more than half the worlds solar panels. They generated 40% of Germany’s peak electricity demand on June 6, but practically 0% during the darkest weeks of winter.
• Seimens closed it’s entire solar division, losing about €1bn. Bosch is getting out too, it has lost about €2.4bn.
• Solar investors have lost almost about €25bn in the past year. More than 5,000 companies associated with solar have closed since 2010.
• Germany has phased out nuclear, but is adding 20 coal fired stations. Gas power can’t compete with cheap coal or subsidized renewables and 20% of gas power plants are facing shutdown.
• Despite the river of money paid to renewables, emissions have risen in Germany for the last two years.

Ninety-seven percent of experts believe that the sun and stars revolve around the Earth. It is basic physics – anyone can watch them track around around the Vatican every 24 hours. (The moon moves slightly slower.)

Vatican security has determined that people who question this are a global security threat, because if the Earth started rotating, great floods would occur and our seaports would drown.

I take this issue personally, because my children’s future depends on having everyone thinking the same way that I do.
