Abuse of Authority

If you were hit by a car and sent to the hospital with a broken knee, one would think you could expect some sympathy (and probably more than that) from the driver of the vehicle.

Don’t you think so?

But apparently not in D.C., from a State Department vehicle and driver.
Instead, the police are called to deliver a charge of jaywalking to Jim Treacher (a false charge, according to witnesses) while he is still in the hospital. Listen to Tucker Carlson’s interview on Red Eye about this.

I don’t believe this blogger (well known) was ‘targeted’, but the action on the part of the State Department is absolutely reprehensible.

What Happened to Global Warming

Apparently, nothing happened other than the following:
- Data for vital ‘hockey stick graph’ has gone missing
- There has been no global warming since 1995
- Warming periods have happened before – but NOT due to man-made changes
The academic at the centre of the ‘Climategate’ affair, whose raw data is crucial to the theory of climate change, has admitted that he has trouble ‘keeping track’ of the information.
DailyMail has the rest of the story

And even now, the UN now has to contend with scientists casting doubt on their previously unequivocal claims of global warming.
This article is quite enlightening.

Third, a background note by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said a 2007 report wrongly stated that 55 percent of the country was below sea level since the figure included areas above sea level, prone to flooding along rivers.
(It’s actually much less than 55 percent.)
Reuters has the rest of the article.

Is it any wonder we should always question everything fed to us?
