Today’s global warming hearing was cancelled in DC due to heavy snow. Here is the view of the fossil fuel powered early spring in Gore, Virginia – just west of DC

Hansen admits that he is intentionally influencing the data to generate desired results.

The hardest part is trying to influence the nature of the measurements obtained, so that the key information can be obtained

Here is some of his handiwork, influencing the historical measurements.

Hansen may have succeeded in doing what Hitler failed to do – bring England to her knees.

In 1988, the year global warming made its entrance into politics, Margaret Thatcher declared that mankind had unwittingly been carrying out a massive experiment with the planet, in which the burning of fossil fuels would produce greenhouse gases, leading to higher global temperatures. The results of this experiment remain an open question. As Rajendra Pachauri, head of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, acknowledged last month, there has been a 17-year pause in the rise of average global temperatures.

Of more immediate consequence to British families is that the UK has embarked on perhaps the most aggressive political experiment attempted in peacetime – gradually outlawing the use of fossil fuels, which we have relied on since the Industrial Revolution, as our principal source of energy. The results are already evident. Two weeks ago, Alistair Buchanan, chief executive of Ofgem, warned of rising energy bills, and questioned whether Britain would be able to keep the lights on. When there is a glut of natural gas in the US and coal prices are plunging in Europe, this country faces a green energy crunch as it attempts to decarbonise its economy.

The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee said that if he’s elected, he wants to act quickly to mobilize the international community to “offer a series of big sticks and big carrots to the Iranian regime to stand down on nuclear weapons.”

After four years of the Empty Chair Nobel Peace Prize President, we are on the verge of war with nuclear North Korea and Iran.

Meanwhile, the empty chair focuses on attacking and disarming loyal Americans.

“If I were a gambler, I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000.”

Ehrlich forecast that 65 million Americans would die of starvation between 1980 and 1989, and by 1999 the U.S. population would have declined to 22.6 million.

Legitimate science would be something like “snow is a thing of the past” or “global warming to decrease heavy snowfalls” or “Solar Cycle 24 to be a big one“

“It is possible, I suppose, to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be necessary and appropriate under the Constitution and applicable laws of the United States for the President to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the United States,” Holder replied in a letter yesterday to Paul’s question about whether Obama “has the power to authorize lethal force, such as a drone strike, against a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil, and without trial.”

Paul condemned the idea. “The U.S. Attorney General’s refusal to rule out the possibility of drone strikes on American citizens and on American soil is more than frightening – it is an affront the Constitutional due process rights of all Americans,” he said in a statement.

Obama is offended at the idea of interrogating foreign terrorists, but likes the idea that he can kill Americans in their homes. He has :

• 2,700 domestic tanks
• 7,000 domestic automatic rifles
• 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition
• 125,000 domestic paramilitary personnel
• A belief that he is entitled to kill Americans without any consultation or due process

And he is in the process of trying to disarm Americans. Nothing to see here – move along.
