Scientific American recently told us that climate skeptics are right wing conspiracy theorists, who believe that the moon landing never occurred. (This group of conspiracy theorists apparently includes Harrison Schmidt, who walked on the moon.)

And today, Scientific American is promoting conspiracy theory, which they described as delusional paranoia on April 30.

I predict that Arctic ice will retreat until September, and then advance until next March.

I also predict that the Antarctic will do the opposite, because people down under are contrary and have to do everything opposite us. Even their toilets swirl in the opposite direction.

Benghazi Whistle Blower: “… Americans Were Deliberately Left There To Die”

MAY 2, 2013

Two of my SEAL brothers (Doherty and Woods) were in Benghazi, working with the CIA on an intelligence mission to locate shoulder fired surface-to-air missiles that were stolen by Al Qaeda when Libya fell. They heard several shots being fired near the consulate. It was recorded that Ty radioed to inform his superiors and tell them what he was hearing and requested permission to assist at the consulate. However, they were told to “stand down!” An hour later, they called again to report the gunfire and requested to assist and were again told to “stand down!” WHY? And by whom? Only the President can give the order to military units to cross a country’s borders.

The latest theory is that CO2 steered Sandy into heavily Democratic states on the East Coast, causing Chris Christie to fall in love with Barack Obama.

Suppose for a minute that CO2 does steer hurricanes. Florida is experiencing their longest hurricane free period on record, so apparently they are being protected by CO2’s magical hurricane steering powers.

Perhaps CO2 should be named the patron saint of Florida?

COLORADO SPRINGS, Apri 30, 2013—Recall petition drives are well under way for four pro-gun control Democrats in the Colorado state legislature.

The four facing recall petitions are:

John Morse (Senate District 11; 7,178 valid signatures needed)

Angela Giron (Senate District 3; 11,285 valid signatures needed)

Evie Hudak (Senate District 19; 18,962 valid signatures needed)

Mike McLachlan (House District 59; 10,587 valid signatures needed)

In Colorado, the number of valid signatures needed is 25% of the total ballots cast in the election of the official being recalled. Petition gatherers usually get 25-40% more than necessary.

Sen. John Morse is the president of the senate and thus responsible for sheparding the gun bills through. He was famously shown on the Rachel Maddow TV show explaining how he told “his” senators to ignore the objections of their constituents and vote for the rights-restricting legislation.
