Obama’s just adding to his 41,000 metric ton carbon footprint (Telegraph) Rooms have to be found for dozens of Secret Service agents, someone has to carry a selection of presidential basketballs, and of course the family dog needs his own state-of-the-art aircraft. Arriving in the idyllic coastal retreat of Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts, Mr Obama […]

Let’s not forget, the man in question has a “carbon footprint” estimated at 41,000 metric tons, making him mostly to be the Man With Largest Carbon Footprint In The World.

In a word Don’t Especially if they are Progressives. They are all rigid, myopic ideologues bound by talking points without critical adult thinking. It’s exceedingly rare that any will ever change their minds, as most are close-minded and interested in political advantage and instituting their far left dogma of big fascistic government (for Other People), […]

Glad they have their priorities straight, what with a poor jobs market, real wages in the crapper, more and more people being shifted to part time positions, historic numbers of people dropping out of the jobs market, etc and so on. You know the hit parade. (Politico) The White House, congressional Democrats and their allies […]

Warmists really did not comport themselves well, especially when it came to the actual science, or what the infer is science. Judith Curry has a nice breakdown of the testimony, which includes this from Dr. Roy Spencer (full testimony here) It should also be noted that the fact that I believe at least some of […]

PJ Media’s Tom Blumer makes an interesting point about Hotcoldwetdry Failure Deniers: Climate Change and Public-Sector Science Tuesday afternoon, as I was reading Barack Obama’s Georgetown University speech on “climate change,â€Â it occurred to me that the biggest and perhaps most consequential difference between the government and the private sector is how each reacts when reality doesn’t […]

The best is the one from Hawaii, which notes (via Watts Up With That?) The US Department of Agriculture designated 31 counties in Hawaii as primary natural disaster areas due to damages and losses from drought in 2012. Hawaii has 5 counties. One would think that a president who was raised there might know that. […]

If you guessed that the first was Al Gore, and he’s congratulating Obama for making a speech, you get a cookie. No beer. It contains CO2 (Al’s Journal) This was a terrific and historic speech, by far the best address on climate by any president ever. I applaud the new measures announced by President Barack […]
