Sequestered Brains

If Obama goes through with his threat to fire school teachers after four years of failed opportunities to cut spending, he will be eviscerated. It will be obvious that he is using teachers as a political pawn. That is the only place he could think of to cut spending????

Republicans are holding a straight flush, Obama has nothing – and Republicans are about to fold. What a bunch of complete losers.

Australia Permanent Drought Update

January 4, 2008

This drought may never break

IT MAY be time to stop describing south-eastern Australia as gripped by drought and instead accept the extreme dry as permanent, one of the nation’s most senior weather experts warned yesterday.

“Perhaps we should call it our new climate,” said the Bureau of Meteorology’s head of climate analysis, David Jones.

Five years later, exactly 0% of Australia is experiencing severe long-term drought.

Remember During The Election When Obama Was Pretending That He Supported Coal?

Obama needed Ohio and Pennsylvania, so he lied to the people there about his position on coal.

SEATTLE–The White House Council on Environmental Quality has convened a series of meetings with federal regulators over the past nine months as the Obama administration shapes environmental impact analyses for the building of terminals to export coal to Asia.

Note that the trend would be much steeper, except for the cold years in 1993 and 1994 after the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo.

It’s The Feedbacks, Stupid

Why Skepticism About Computer Models Is Not A Good Reason For Skepticism About Climate Change

“The basis for human activities being the primary driver of the recent changes in climate is observation and the physical understanding of the processes that drive our climate system. Models of these physical processes further add to this understanding, especially for the future projections of further changes, but the basic science is based on observation.”

Why Skepticism About Computer Models Is Not A Good Reason For Skepticism About Climate Change – Forbes

Complete bullshit. There has been no warming for 17 years, and Hansen’s whole theory is based on modeled feedbacks. No one thinks that CO2 by itself can produce catastrophic global warming.

New Heterosexual Hobby : Nuclear Weapons

Morrissey: ‘If men were homosexual, there would be no wars’

“If more men were homosexual, there would be no wars, because homosexual men would never kill other men, whereas heterosexual men love killing other men. “They even get medals for it. Women don’t go to war to kill other women. Wars and armies and nuclear weapons are essentially heterosexual hobbies.”

Morrissey: ‘If men were homosexual, there would be no wars’ – Telegraph

If all men were gay, then there wouldn’t be any people and cockroaches could again rule the planet.  And he seems to be making a very strong case against gays the military.

Morrissey seems to be projecting some violent psychosis inside his own mind.

Greenland Ice Gain Since 2012

The animation below flashes between April 2012 and February 2013 at the Greenland Summit Camp. Note how their greenhouse (the closer building) has become half buried in ice and snow.

This huge weight of new ice forces the ice sheet to deform and spread out towards the ocean, causing icebergs to calve into the sea.

James Blalog then takes pictures of these calving events, posts them all over the Denver airport, and sells them to mindless eco-dupes as evidence of global warming.
