After his administration issued repeated defenses of a National Security Agency monitoring program that collects Americans’ phone and Internet data, Obama announced during a press conference Friday afternoon that reforms to the system will make the collection activities more transparent and “give the American people additional confidence that there are additional safeguards against abuse.”

In other words :

I lied repeatedly about our blatantly unconstitutional spying program, and just this week I lied when I said that we don’t spy on Americans. But you can trust me.

While playing soccer at lunch, I got this reminder of how incredibly stupid the people are we are dealing with.

Greenland receives about a metre of snow per year, or about two trillion cubic metres across the entire ice sheet.

Glaciers form when snow falls in the interior. The weight of accumulated snow builds pressure, which drives the glacier towards the sea, where it melts.

Climate morons apparently want the snow to just stay there, and extend up past the top of the troposphere in about 10,000 years. You just can’t make up stupid like that. It has to be a gift.

25 Aug 1911 – ENCLAND’S HEAT WAVE. ALARMING DEATH RATE.

A US expert recently explained how these heat deaths could have been avoided by not using air conditioning in 1911. (It isn’t clear if this expert had recently suffered a major head injury.)

After two busy hurricane years in 2004 and 2005, many of the world’s leading experts (including Judith Curry and Roger Pielke) concluded that global warming was making major hurricanes hit more often.

Since the study was released, the US has gone almost eight years without a major hurricane strike – the longest such period since the Civil War.

Climate science seems to be based around finding ways to blame any type of recent weather on man-made CO2, even though CO2 has little or nothing to do with it.

However, this picture of the 1959 La Jolla High School Homecoming Queen normally changes my level.

We hear all kind of bizarre clams about climate catastrophe from people calling themselves scientists. It is time that we tighten up the definition of the term :

scientist : someone who couldn’t get a date in high school

It took most of the 20th century for the consensus to accept the blatantly obvious fact of Continental Drift. They chose to ignore the evidence – because it didn’t fit their belief system.

Similarly, we hear consensus claims that the Earth is heating this century (despite all evidence to the contrary) because the evidence doesn’t match their belief system.

My experience with scientists is that the vast majority are mindless sheep, bleating behind the funding shepherd.
