Dennis Miller Plays The Fool.

Can Dennis Miller read? He has been on the rightwing propaganda shows lately with a Newsweek magazine from 1975. The magazine has an article about global cooling in it. Why someone would cite 32 year old information to make a scientific argument I don't know, that is unless on has a hidden agenda. Yes at one time science did believe the earth was cooling. Here is an explanation from Wikipedia:

"As the NAS report and the article in Newsweek both indicate, scientific knowledge regarding climate change was more uncertain than it is today. At the time that Rasool and Schneider wrote their 1971 paper, climatologists had not yet recognized the significance of greenhouse gases other than water vapor and carbon dioxide, such as methane, nitrous oxide and chlorofluorocarbons [22]. Early in that decade, carbon dioxide was the only widely studied human-influenced greenhouse gas. The attention drawn to atmospheric gases in the 1970s stimulated many discoveries in future decades. As the temperature pattern changed, global cooling was of waning interest by 1979."

Twenty years ago global cooling was discredited and the science of climatology advanced.
Dennis Miller isn't dumb. He knows that in science as more information becomes available theories are refined. At one time people thought the earth was flat, the earth was the center of the universe, and that humors were responsible for illness. All these ideas gave way to better information, that is how science works. Miller using 32 year old information to try and discredit current scientific thinking is typical of conservative thought. Conservatives by definition do not like change. Unfortunately for them burying your head up your ass doesn't prevent change from happening.

The Union Club Puts Some Lipstick On A Pig.

The Union Club in Philadelphia awarded a gold medal to Donald Rumsfeld. In the old days, back when the truth actually mattered, gold medals were given to heroes. People who demonstrated courage or demonstrated rare levels of skill were awarded gold medals as a sign of gratitude and respect. Rumsfeld has presided over the most failed Defense Department in the history of the country. He has participated in losing not one but two wars during his administration, the nation was attacked on his watch, and the main perpetrator has never been brought to justice. Rumsfeld shamed the nation by approving the torture of prisoners by American personnel. He effectively spit on the Constitution by allowing illegal wiretaps of American citizens. Rumsfeld was and is a failure and the Union Club rewarded that failure. Look at the picture running with this article, if that isn't lipstick on a pig, then what is it?

Fox Sells It's Soul Pays Terrorists and Murderers

The difference between republicans and Democrats has never been as clearly defined as it was yesterday. News Corp. the parent of Fox New and Fox entertainment was in the news itself.
Someone at Fox paid for the release of two employees who had been kidnapped by Palestinian terrorists. The terrorists received two million dollars for the release of the employees. That is two million dollars that the terrorists themselves literally thanked Fox for and said they would use to buy weapons and bombs. I wonder how many dead Israeli's two million dollars buys.
Not to be outdone buy itself, and in an effort to get the two million back, Fox is going to air an interview with O.J. Simpson. Simpson is going to discuss how he would have killed Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman, "if he had done the killings." It is hard to decide which is sleazier, Fox for paying this piece of shit for the interview, or Simpson for capitalizing on the murders he was never punished for.
Getting back to the difference between republicans and Democrats, republicans feel whatever they do, even funding terrorists and murderers is ok. Democrats know that a price must always be paid, and the objects we sometimes desire are never worth the cost to our souls.

Fox Gives Two Million To Terrorists

Fox News has some explaining to do. It seems someone representing Fox paid Palestinian terrorists $2 milllion for the return of two Fox employees that had been kidnapped.

Republicans In No Position To Offer Lieberman Anything

Joe Lieberman thinks he's holding a winning hand. After whining, I mean, winning the election he thinks he is in a position to dictate terms to the Democrats. Sly old Joe is threatening to take all his chips and go over to the republikins if he doesn't get what he wants. unfortunately for Joe the republikins aren't in any position to give him anything, even if they wanted to. I feel sorry for the Connecticut voters, they are facing six years of Joe bringing home nothing. The Democrats aren't going to give him anything, they can't trust him, and his repub buddies are in no shape to give a turncoat Democrat something that could go to one of their own. Joe's going to be as impotent as Rush Limbaugh. Joe, go on over to the dark side, we won't miss you.

Coulter to Stupid To Find The Correct Polling Place.

It seems that Coulter, a Florida voter, is so stupid she couldn't find the correct polling place, voted in the wrong place is now being investigated. She faces up to 5 years in prison in convicted. She apparently has gotten no better at locating polling places since she allegedly criminal behavior, in this past election she didn't even vote. What a great American.

Did an angel appear over the State Fair?

Columbia, SC - The South Carolina State Fair experience can be described in many ways, but you probably won't hear it called 'heavenly.' That is, unless you're talking to one Columbia family who recently showed off their "sign from above."

On the last Friday of the fair in October, Catherine Austin and her sons were high atop the ferris wheel when they took severl digital photos. It wasn't until they got home that they noticed something out of this world, something some might call a heavenly host.

"It looks just like an angel," Catherine says. "It even has a ray of light that comes from the bottom toward the body of the angel and it's centered right in the middle of the picture - and I believe in angels. It's just an angel."


Looks like a heavenly moth to me.
