Trust in God. Let the truth be told. Who in their right minf would believe anything Al Gore espoused.So let's begin a crimial case of FRAUD by the UN & the other Anti-Amercan groupies. Now there's a conspiracy theory with a real "Smoking Gun".

I think if people would get out of their air conditioned homes, vehicles(including farm and constr. equip.) etc, businesses and workshops,

they would realize it's warm outside. We've re-climatized ourselves. That's the reason the rest of the world doesn't seem as concerned as the U.S. of A.. They're not living in an A/C world like us Americans and they not making the big bucks like Al and gang. I'm a little concerned with melting icebergs, but whether my cows are living is no comparison to what major industries do. Next we humans will be taxed for living.

A couple of years ago, I was informed that I was one of about twenty people on the planet that didn't accept AGW. Sadly, our number is reduced with the death of that intellectual giant, Dr. Michael Crichton. The remaining nineteen of us will be following the issue closely to see how the "Hadley" people answer the following allegations suggested by the 'hacked' material:

1.) Manipulated raw data.

2.) Wrote computer program language that skewed data.

3.) Turned the 'peer review' process into an incestuous

'circle jerk'.

4.) Berated non-friendly journal editors; sought their

removal.

5.) Refused to share data and methodology.

6.) Refused to obey FOI requests.

7.) Destroyed evidence.

8.) Refused to engage in open debate.

9.) Publicly denounced and smeared those who questioned

the 'science'.

10.) Engaged in public hyperbole, made fraudulent and false

claims to gain 'attention' and create public support.

11.) Declared the debate 'closed' before it even 'began'.

It is necessary to make an important distinction in the climate-alarmists' position. They are arguing for Gaia health, earth health. They are not advocating for 'man; that we must reduce industrial effluents to benefit 'man'. They are not concerned that 'man' may be killing other 'men'. They allege that 'man' is making Gaia sick.

Gaia, not 'man', is at risk...that is the argument. And the abuse of Gaia comes from a particular subset...'rich Caucasian man'. Asian and Indian sub-continent 'man' are not considered part of the problem. It's as if a physician is advising an emphysema patient thusly, "I'd prefer that you didn't smoke, but if you must, buy Chinese cigarettes."

For those that argue that anthropogenic climate change is settled, that it is universally accepted by all rational observers, that award-winning scientists have 'spoken', allow me this mild rebuke. Al Gore recently spoke on the merits of geothermal energy. Paraphrasing, he said that at a depth of 1-2 kilometers into the earth, there are hot rocks, a million degrees.

Can't argue with that. One dare not solicit an explanation as to how steel well-casing (Melting point: ~2500 degrees F.) maintains its structural integrity as it traverses the 'hot zone'. After all, Mr. Gore's got a Nobel.....

Now, here's some emperical evidence:

Matter is neither created nor destroyed, only changed in form.

The geologic age of planet earth is 4.54 billion years old.

4.54x10^9

Homo sapiens is 60-100,000 years on the planet.

1.00x10^5

Industrial revolution man is 250 years old.

2.50x10^2

It is asserted that in a fraction (0.000000055 or 0.0000055%) of earth time that 'industrial revolution man', by keeping warm, planting crops, driving to work, benefitting from AC power...by just going about his normal business...has endangered the survivability of the planet.

To believe this, one has to dismiss all other internal and external influences exerted upon the planet. From the far reaches of space... cosmic rays. From our solar system...variances in solar output (Milankovic and others), solar magnetic influences/solar wind, earth-sun orbital variations, obliquity, earth axial tilt (now 23.5 degrees; range 22-24.5). Earth planetary forces...plate tectonics, earthquakes, volcanism, ocean current gradients, earth magnetic field variations. Toss in the secondary effects of... hurricanes, tornadoes, straight winds, tsunamis, flooding, lightning-caused fires, methane from termites and rice paddies, ruminant flatulence, bacterial and fungal 'outgassing' during the decomposition of organic material. All of a sudden, man's influence is placed in perspective. It is really very small.

Not heretofore mentioned is the effect of water vapor and clouds....missing from the computer models...yet 95% of greenhouse gas is water vapor.

To hypothesize that a trace gas, CO2, measured in ppm (385ppm)....utilized by plants as raw material for photosynthesis, exhaled by mammals, absorbable in H2O, incorporated into shellfish, functioning as one of nature's buffering systems...might be responsible for an earth calamity stretches credulity.

Why CO2, not CH4 which has 20-times the green-house effect, mole-mole?

Why are the battery of computer models, currently projecting impending doom, unable to replicate the conditions of the Medieval Warm Period or the Little Ice Age using proxy data?

Why does snow always melt first on the sunny side of the street? Why is it cooler under a tree? Why is Dallas warmer than Duluth? Why is it cooler when a cloud blocks out the sun?

There are about 30 micro-environments identified. You'll see a number of them on excursions to the Grand Canyon. What is the major variable? CO2 concentrations or exposure to sunlight?

700 million years ago, earth was a giant ball of ice.

Ten thousand years ago, where I'm now sitting, the land was under a mile of solid ice. What happened to that ice? What caused the warming? Why did the climate change? Greenland was once green. The oceans were once 500 feet shallower. The Sahara was a pasture.

We're currently late in an interglacial period. If I were a betting man, I'd lay $$$ on impending global cooling, just because that's the previous pattern for interglacials. Of course, it must be mentioned that it was the 'consensus' of scientists in 1975 that global cooling was upon us.

It should be pointed out that Milankovic's hypotheses correlate well with known periods of climate variation, and are supported by ice core samples. It could fairly be shouted from every Minnesota playground, "It's the sun, stupid!"

As for greenhouse gases, great. Without them, we'd be about 18 degrees cooler across the board.

Civilizations, and species, come and go. We should be good stewards. That's what the 'Good Book' advises.

I see God, every day, in His creations...grandkids, airplanes, flowers, puppies, computers. My belief won't allow me to accept that He would be so cruel as to cause our species, made in His image, to be felled by our physiological 'exhaust'....that CO2 would be the instrument of our own destruction.

"Next we humans will be taxed for living."

Um, we already are, John, my friend.

In reading this, it is interesting to note that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) released, yesterday Nov 29, a statement concerning our weather. In brief, the statement indicated that the United States had it's third coolest and wettest October on record.

To Whom I may Concern

The articale about the USSA is good. When I first started college back in the fall of 1959 a lot of the Proffessors were commies. They brainwahed the students into their thinking. Most people were not taught to think for themselves.(my parents told me think yourself don't beleived everything you are told.

Then in 1966 when I got out of the army again I went back college and there were even more professors who were commies. I was a memeber of the vets club. The heppies spite on us, call us names and threw rocks at us. Guess what those are the people now running our government.

God bless

At last we can understand why the global warming predictions have not been following on track. Now we read on line that the so-called scientists have fabricated data and really don't understand the connections between temperature and man's actions, so how can a computer model be created? The current disclosures and admissions will save the world a tremendous cost - if the power-hungry politicians and those who have invested heavily in anticipated cap and trade (Al Gore, for example, and Obama's global warming czar, Carol Browner with her $172,200 per year salary). Gore says he just "puts his money where his mouth is," but it is really the other way around. He puts his mouth where his money is. I wonder how much money he is putting out to try to squelch the reports that there is no man-made global warming. He can't have an ethical issue with doing that, since Obama just spent $300,000,000 of our tax money to buy Senator Landreau's vote on ObamaCare.

Has anyone considered all the roadways and streets and skyscrapers, all the paved parking lots, that on a typical summer day, you can actually fry an egg? Doesn't that in fact add to and help generate heat? If indeed we are in the cooling stage of climate change, then maybe we need all this to keep it from plummeting!

Bad science is bad science. But it also makes you wonder about how much of teh science used for health care justification is a complete fabrication. This makes this sound like we have another socialist crop of Henrich Himmlers (remember him- and "Aryan genetic superiority") - who want to force their view on about the world on the rest of us - even if it requires "selective use" of truth and scientific principals

I went to The University of East Anglia (we call it UEA) and I'm more that a little worried that the impression that some of the work done there does not meet normal academic standards of transparency and honesty may rub off on me!

My nephew is completing a Ph.D. at the same institution. If a serious fraud is proved there we'll all be tarred with the same brush.

I have had doubts about global warming since the whole thing kicked of 20 - 30 years ago, when I was a young man I remember "artists impressions" in British newspapers showing Nelson's column protruding through a layer of ice! such were the predictions of the 1970's

I thank God for Patriot Post. You are a part of the light at the end of the long, dark tunnel the scientific screwballs, self-professed "illuminati" and so called "climate experts" have led us into and where they seem hell-bent to keep us.

Yet, Mother Nature keeps right on keeping on. This old earth isn't doing anything it hasn't been doing for eons and eons - that is, following God's will.

No, I am not an overly religious man but do my best to practice tolerance and goodwill toward my fellow man - that is, where I am permitted to do so as dictated by my fellow man. But when someone tries to shove theory masquerading as truth or fact down my throat I get a little upset and somewhat impatient.

The Almighty Power - maker of the universe - gave me an intellect. Functioning within me, that intellect says the doom-sayers promulgating global warming can't tell theory from fact. They've got a problem - I don't.

I thank all of you folks at Patriot Post for keeping the light shining beacon-bright at the end of the tunnel. This old soldier (Korean and Vietnam Wars Vet.) is glad to know that when I'm gone there will still be people with common sense like you to help keep the kooks, the misguided and the greed seekers at bay. Keep up the good work.

May God bless you all. And may God bless and speed our gallant fighting forces as they daily put their lives on the line to keep safe this wonderful, free country in which we live.

A fabulous book by S. Fred Singer and his co-author is titled "Unstoppable Global Warming Every 1500 Years." In it, Fred convincingly that humans are not, and cannot be, responsible for global warming. It is this linkage that is so easily and often overlooked by blind AlGorians. We should not shut down our lives in supplication to liars and knaves like Al Gore, the world's biggest hypocrite.

RE:Chuck Colson's 11/30/09 article on Peter Vidala, the bookstore employee fired for voicing a discenting opinion on a senior employee's constant blathering over her upcoming gay nuptials.

If I were him I would sue for sexual harrassment. Just because gay marriage is legal in MA doesn't mean, he has to hear about it all the time. That is TMI. I would not want to hear about a man or woman's sexual romps with their spouses either. All of it is unwanted, and I believe subject to sexual harrassmet laws.

RE Chuck Colson's article. Guess where I won't shop this Christmas - or ever?

RE:The Left by Rich Galen. If any data has been been destroyed and Federal Grant money was used to support their research, wouldn't that be Federal Crime? Will the current administration persue those

that are involved and get to the facts? Or will this be another denial, that global cooling is real!

The fact that the global warming hype was created by Gore and his cohorts is not a suprise. That University's joined in to the hoopla is unfortunate but not a surprise. I am dismayed that organizations such as NASA and National Geographic joined in the frey. Many of the governments that originally "joined in" have pulled back either openly or quietly. It is time NASA came forth with a statement of truth. It is time National Geographic close its doors in shame. I don't believe Gilbert Grosvenor would approve of the political sham National Geographic has willingly become apart of. Is everything for sale to these people? Is patriotism sold by the gallon? Are ethics sold in bunches? They have to be of great value because I see quite a few people that seem to have any.

Mr. Hoard, good observation about the college "commies." I have news for you that 99% of college professors today, elementary, middle, and high school teachers are bona fide members of NEA (a communist union) or are sympathizers of communism. They indoctrinate our children every day and most parents are clueless. Students put up with it because they want a good grade or are too naive and believe the ideological utopian drivel. I can recall back in 1978 the political correctness that destroyed anyone in the academia if they so much tried to object to the communist curriculum being planned and spewed to our youth. I remember thinking, if this is freedom, I would like to go back to communism. If teachers did not go along with the communist program, they never received tenure, awards, fat paychecks, travel funds to conferences, lucrative collaborative work, bonuses, teacher of the year, teaching fellowships, textbook ghost writing, etc. This current situation has been many years in the making, not so much insidious but out in the open, with the full blessing of the general public who was too busy to take time to notice and object. Case in point, University of Delaware tried to program dormitory students in a year long brainwashing effort, making students feel that they were racists and bigots. Only when parents, alumni, and the general public cried out, did they end it. University of Minnesota is trying to implement a curriculum for future teachers, denying them diplomas and grades if they fail to modify their views according to communist ideology. This sounds to me like "Scientific Socialism" in the USSR.

Can we reverse the damage now? I seriously doubt it.

Regarding Michael Barone's comment about the Global Warming Scientists covering up data.

I would think that if you were really worried about manmade climate change and a proposal to spend billions to fight it was on the table and you found out that the actual data came back showing that there is none to very little impact, this news would be shouted from the rooftops. But it's not. It shows that climate change guru's are now in the business of perpetuating the lie in order to keep their position and power as seen by people from around the world. Tis so sad.

More Global Warming Hogwash. And they tell us that the CRU computer can predict the global weather for sixty years and NOAA can't accurately predict tomorrow's weather for just a segment of America. I find that absolutely amazing. I wonder if these Geeks have tried this machine on the Stock Market. I see this as just another token justification to raise our taxes even more. I wonder if the government has considered eleminating some of their wasteful programs in lieu of raising our taxes yet again. I don't know about you guys but at the current rate I'll probably defalt on my mortgage and give my home back to the mortgage company or Obama or whomever. At the current rate of deprication I'd be better off living in a cave, and hopefully somewhere other than the U.S.S.A.

Peter Vidala should not have been fired. He was being harrassed and goaded by this homosexual.

Same sex marriage (if you want to call it that) is an abomination. They are getting way too many rights in some areas.

No wonder this country is going to hell.

Regarding the Last Word by Michael Barone. We must remember, or take into account, that the President is not merely 'taken in' by the global warming alarmist. He is using it as a venue to push through a bill that will line the pockets of his close friends around the world. The talk and fevor of global warming has gone far beyond a few 'tree huggers', and has taken on a life of it's own. the new political wagon is "global warming".

So they can hack a terabyte of information from the CRU, it wont matter to the Trillion dollars Barry Sotero and his cronies stand to make by having the MSM ignore it.

It's a sad day for this country when the Manhattan Declaration has to be issued encouraging civil disobedience because this government has become anti- Christian and acting on issues of conscience may not be permitted.

There are three(3) noteworthy bills in the house and senate. Two(2) in in the house HR 861 and HR 227 and one(1) in the senate that state life begans at conception. This legislation would negate Roe VS. Wade. Phill Roe, my representative has signed on to both and deserves credit. Neither Alexander nor Corker has signed on to the senate bill. Please say something on your Web site about these bills and hopefull we can pressure our senators to support this legilation,

U.S.S.A.: The Democrats' Dream

As a conservative Democrat, this is not my "dream", it is more of a nightmare.

Re: White House party crashers

1. If the government can't take care of President Obama, how do they expect to take care of us?

2. Where are the bi-partisan house panels investigating how so many party crashers make it accross our borders? If they want to throw citizens out of the White House, why are they so reluctant to keep non-citizens from entering illegally?

3. Speaking of citizens... why is the Fort Hood guy (a citizen) getting a tribunal, while the 9/11 mastermind gets a citizen's trial? I bet they give the White House crashers a military tribunal.

Too many Americans have become accustomed to being robbed, beaten and raped by their government. They lie there, hoping by not resisting that somehow, in some way, the attacker will be satisfied and will eventually stop. Robbers and rapists do what they do because they like it and they get away with it. Our government has become a robber, mugger and rapist and there's only one way to deal with such a bully: Punch him right in the mouth -- as hard and as often as it takes to knock him out and, while he's lying on the ground, kick him, hard. Then, when he wakes up and tries to rise, knock him down and out again. Do it as often as it takes to convince him that he's got to change his perceptions, his assumptions, his way of dealing with you. Bullies grow stronger in proportion as they meet no or weak resistance. They won't go away until they're forced to. This government has become a bully of international proportions, far more dangerous and powerful than any historical bully or tyrant.

Does anyone know if AlBore's ancestors were responsible for the Pilton Man and the Cardif Giant?

Remember the Saturday afternoon movies with cavemen fighhting dinasours, they were actually documentaries.

Where is the rest of the media? Why is it not news? This is particularly disconcerting!

Given the enormous damage the policies of the current administration are certain to cause this new nation they are building-the United Socialist States of America-it seems obvious to me that what they are doing is tantamount to treason. The fact that so many Americans are willing to stand back and let them get away with it is terribly disconcerting to conservatives. Folks, the final chapter of the book "The Decline and Fall of the United States of America" is being written before our very eyes by the traitors in Washington, DC.

Mr. Thomas, you are so right. Human life has no worth in communism. Even productive souls have a price that is somewhat below human dignity. Life in the womb is considered inconvenient cells to be disposed of, imperfect children are often left to die without care, or if they survive in spite of the abuse, to rot in orphanages without the touch and love of another caring human being, the elderly, if not cared for by their families, dispatched with morphine when they adversely affect the hospital's or the doctor's bottom line. Sounds crazy? Not really, it has happened again and again in socialized medicine under the euphemism euthanasia. Hyppocratic oath means nothing to them. Is that what we want in this country?

Has anyone including the Attorney General of the U.S. given any thought to the safety of the jurors chosen for the KSM "show trial"? Once their idntity becomes known, their lives and the lives of their families will be in grave danger, probably for as long as they live. Some reporter looking for a Pulitzer prize will undoubtedly publish their names. Most likely in the New York Times.

871,000,000,000 for the house health care / 350,000,000 people in the US = $2488.57 over 10 years / 10 = $248.85 per year premium?!

I have the VA fixing most of my ill's but I'm 32 and in great shape other then Army wear and tear. My comprehensive medical care coverage quote was $178 per month with a $5,000 deductible (I was pricing last week).

So the people who can not even run their own staffs with a budget think they can pluck that 871BIL number out of the air? More like if EVERYONE was healthy with supplemental insurance like me the bill will cost 350mil x $178/mo x 12mo/year or 747,600,000,000 per YEAR x 10 years, or 7.48TRILLION over the projected 10 years. Opps I guess they were off by a few zeros, that is if everyone is 32 and in great health with supplemental VA health care.

Some days I wonder if I am the only one left on the planet who can add. . .

PS, I hope you enjoyed this farce of a math equation as much as I did writing it at midnight, a nice little break from working :)

Hope Blanche Lincoln, Mary Landrieu, and the rest of the Democrats who "just voted for the Obamacare bill" to be brought to the floor have a good answer as to why they voted against their constituency for the almighty dollar. THEY SOLD THEIR SOULS TO THE DEVIL! I wonder how that explanation will play out in the hereafter.

Times that Try the Souls of Men

According to all sources, Hussein will be "using" West Point as the "stage" for his troop announcements.

Meanwhile, House Rep. Obey - D from Wisconsin is proposing a "surtax" on I guess US to pay for "the war".

How to unravel all of this "mischief" and "convolution" that the enemies are throwing at us is quite stymieing.

So I am going to set out to use these boundaries for myself in these "treacherous times":

1. When the troops are in the field:

1. Be respectful

2. Say or do nothing to destroy morale.

2. Always support "reinforcements" to troops already in the "field" - It is unconscionable to do otherwise.

I believe that this was the common "thinking" in this beloved land during WWII & Korea, when we as a society, " feared God and eschewed evil". These were the last wars that we fought without this "strange, overt, hostility toward the troops".

Where did all this "foreignism" come from in this Beloved land??? The seat of infamy was the university campuses!!!!!! Where we, the people, were sending our young people to be "educated"!!!!! They turned the young people into "clever devils" that turned on the Veterans returning from Vietnam. We, the people, stood in "unbelief" that this was happening, but it was happening.

Men declaring they wouldn't go to war for this Beloved Nation (draft-dodgers). Unthinkable amongst the common, God-fearing people to have such notions amongst the men. Unbelievable, but it was happening.

A large majority of these legislators that are in Washington, now, are the "campus hippies" of the '60's. Remember, their "folk songs" "If I had a hammer"!!! We, the people, FORCED. Unbelievable, but it is here.

I hope MacArthur returns to West Point tonight and surprises all our enemies. Will the enemies of our Beloved Country, enter into our beloved places and set up their "images" "the abomination that makes desolate" as the Bible says?????

Dear God, have mercy on us.

For God & Country

Ruth Ann Wilson

Cal Thomas's article this Monday really hit home with me. As a history teacher, his reference to "great horrors" in history not beginning with gas chambers but with a philosophical shift about the value of human life rings so true. The press chided tea-party protestors who compared Obama to Hitler. I see the the connection as accurate, not only due to his efforts to increase government control over our lives, but in his administration and party's views about what human begins lives and livelihoods are "worth" protecting.

Cal Thomas misunderstands and misrepresents evolution. It's a biological process, not a political ideology, and cannot be blamed for anybody's behavior or politics. The old bromide that evolution is "the survival of the fittest" is also a misrepresentation. It better summarized as "survival of the most adaptable."

Likewise, atheism is not a political ideology. The urge to socialism comes from the misguided notion of utopianism, that government is the agent of perfecting man. That's not an atheistic position, but a collectivist one. I can point out plenty of collectivists who believe in a god.

Thomas is right that the country is slouching into Socialism. He's on the wrong hobby horse(s) as to why. You can't win a war if you are not willing to name the enemy. Thomas' poor aim is making enemies of friends and vice versa.

I have never believed the hoopla about Global Warming. It is nothing moe than climate fluctuations, which happen with the change of seasons. Al Gore and his cohorts should be required to give the rest of us 'carbon credits' in the form of green dollars.

To break the global warming issue down even further, consider your local weather forecasters who can't get the weather forecast right from day to day, in spite of having the "latest doppler radar systems" available. Seasons come and go and will continue to do so, regardless of what the babbling idiots in copenhagen may decide.
