pelosi, clinton, and boxer…

can you ever imagine, three, more arrogant, condensending, and full of ones self (ok i made that up) than these three women? pelosi leads the way to reduce the perks of the senate and congress, then demands a plane with a bedroom for her staff? huh? hillary demands that the war be ended by the time she becomes the next president? excuse me? and boxer, who knows no shame, trashes condi knowing that she will be ever the considerate one? why would anyone support these people? i dont get it? do you?

coal fired plants in china and india

now this is really scary ..the number of coal burning plants they are building really dwarfs todays news( if true)http://www.csmonitor.com/2004/1223/p01s04-sten.html

global warming

be crucial but never seem to come up in debate. I have spent several years trying to track down the actual values of two numbers – the annual amount of carbon dioxide emitted by all human activities, and the amount of carbon dioxide already present in the atmosphere. There are as many answers as there are sources, the first ranging from 3 billion to 28 billion tons, the second from 750 billion tons to 2.97 x 1012 tons, a number so large that there’s no common English word for it. Variations of this size – up to three orders of magnitude – suggest a serious lack of basic knowledge,” of the amount of carbon dioxide already there versus how much is being added by human beings. “The fact that it never comes up suggests that scientists are well aware of this.”

Moving on. Mr. Dunn here attempts to highlight some things by going back to look at history. “Despite the insistence of Al Gore and friends, this is far from the first time the Earth has ever passed through a climatic warming period. In fact, one occurred relatively recently, the medieval warm period, more commonly known as the Little Climatic Optimum (LCO), a period stretching roughly from the 10th to the 13th centuries, in which the average temperature was anything from 1 to 3 degrees centigrade higher than it is today. Several years ago, I covered the LCO in an article detailing the climatic history of the last millennium. But it’s worthwhile to cover the highlights once more, to help put the contemporary panic into perspective.

“How warm was it during the LCO? Areas in the Midlands and Scotland that cannot grow crops today were regularly farmed. England was known for its wine exports. The average height of Britons around A.D. 1000 was close to six feet, thanks to good nutrition. The small stature of the British lower classes (and the Irish) later in the millennium is an artifact of lower temperatures. People of the 20th century were the first Europeans in centuries to grow to their ‘true’ stature – and most had to grow up in the USA to do it. In fact, famine – and its partner, plague — appears to have taken a hike for several centuries. We have records of only a handful of famines during the LCO, and few mass outbreaks of disease. The bubonic plague itself appears to have retreated to its heartland of Central Asia.”

Anyway, it goes on and on and on describing even the Vikings. “The LCO was the first age of transatlantic exploration. When not slaughtering their neighbors, the Vikings were charting new lands across the North Atlantic, one of the stormiest seas on earth. If you tried the same thing today, traveling their routes in open boats of the size they used, you would drown. They discovered Iceland, and Greenland, and a new world even beyond, where they found grape vines, the same as in England. The Agricultural Revolution is not widely known except among historians. Mild temperatures eased land clearing and lengthened growing seasons. More certain harvests encouraged experimentation among farmers involving field rotation, novel implements, and new crops such as legumes.” For those of you in Rio Linda, forget it. It goes on to apply some common sense. What’s so bad if it is warming? Where is most of the world’s population concentrated now? Near the equator, where it’s hot as hell, year round.

The evidence here suggests that because of these fluctuating cycles of warming and cooling, that all kinds of processes change, agricultural, ocean, any number of things. It’s evidence that these things happen cyclically and naturally, and it’s the height of vanity for a bunch of human scientists acting upon consensus who are nothing more than in utter panic mode, plus you can’t take their politics out of it. They’re just purebred socialists who believe in big government. Remember, folks, the whole point of all this is to pound you with this enough and enough and enough to make you feel guilty enough for causing it that you will accept Draconian alterations in your lifestyle and higher taxes to fix it, otherwise we are doomed, otherwise there won’t be an earth, not one that we can survive. It’s all hocus-pocus. It’s one giant lie. Even if it is warming, the idea that there will not be any improvement anywhere on the planet as a result is just silly. When you look at the fact that the 10th and 13th centuries it was three degrees centigrade warmer then than today when there clearly couldn’t have been as much carbon dioxide output by humanity, the whole argument that these people are making should be obviated by simple history. But it’s not, until we keep working on it.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

i could not say it better myself

al gore

does he really still believe he won the election? i think so…in some distorted way..i mean how many times were the votes counted? and if he thought floridas election process was flawed(set up by the dems) why didnt he ask for a recount of the whole state vs the top 3 dem counties? the whole ballot exam thing was a disgrace to our political system…and on a side note…if Bush stole the election…..as many on the left believe, why is bush been portrayed as dumb, frat boy, monkey boy etc etc…was he clever and smart then, and changed overnight? or was it just dumb luck, or his staff who precceded him into the admin and were portrayed as the same hmmmm

global warming, carbon, and technologies

wow all this gloom and doom from the left and the media these days..reports…alleged denials…al gore and his movie and book(i am sorry but is he a climatology scientist..og sorry he gets a pass for inventing the internet) gosh it is all so depressing and most of it is a lot of b.s..starting with of course President Bush bashing..saying that he now just now admits to globaling warming cause by carbon released by fossil fuel burning power plants refineries etc…huh? well lets all get our facts straight ok gang? the following is a quote by the the President on june 11th,2001…”We all believe technology offers great promise to significanty reduce (greenhouse gas) emissions-especially CARBON (GASP) capture, storage and sequestration technologies” us department of energy www.fossil.energy.gov and he follows this up on february 27th, 2003 with the futuregen prject which is the worlds first prototype power plant to incorporate carbon capture…oh really….this is only one of many carbon sequestation projects under way which are sponsored by the us and the dept of energy…if he didnt think climate change was caused by carbon why would he be pushing these programs so read carefully again class……”reduce emissions ESPECIALLY CARBON” this all came about after the 2001 report from the iioc the project which is funded by the United Nations and is soon to come out with there latest report. the us is the leader in tech and pollution control..the press would have you believe that good old george. in not ratifying the Kyoto treaty, would have us all be burning in you know where or up to to our necks in in all the run-off from the melting snow and ice from the global change…well again not true (oh and by the way clinton had a chance to do this and also passed on it) but you will never hear this from the media..anyhow…if anybody had bothered reading the treaty..(good luck) they would know that..one…a report to President Clinton by the dept of energy and the epa said that this protcol was flawed and would not reduce emissions to anywhere near the levels stated and was not going to be signed by the emerging nations and such….but ok he did sign it and i went to the senate to ratify and was DEFEATED 95-0 yes not one lib senator voted for it..two….they established an emissions list which included carbon DIOXIDE..which the us epa has no standards for….and three….provisions to conties that cannot comply(and we cant sinse we could not reduce our carbon dioxide emmissions 7% since we have no standards…”allows industrialized countries to meet part of their required cuts in greenhouse-gas emissions by paying for projects that reduce emissions in other industrialized countries. In practice, this will likely mean facilities built in the countries of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union — the “transition economies” — paid for by Western European and North American countries.”
hmmm a little vague?…we should pay for projects in countries that have had no controls of air pollution while we have been doing it since 1970? i think not this protcol is a joke not only in its implimentation to reduce greenhouse gasses, but to suck more (much more ) money out of the US (we already pay 24% of 25 billion) well i am getting a little long and need to sum up….i will agree that our world temp has risen 1 deg the past century…why? i am really not sure…is it just part of the natural cycle? has it been caused man made pollution from industrial expansion? will the temp continue to rise? i dont know…nothing i have reasearched to date has convinced me one way or another …but one thing i do know….we live in a great country…our air water and way of life is much better than it was when i grew up in the 60s and 70s….if we need to reduce certain emissions we will.. but it takes time to do so..if carbon is the answer then it will be about 10-15 years before we have the equipment ready to do the job..you just dont invent a technology, design, build and install it in a power plant in 1-2 years…just not going to happen…oh well it could, maybe, but is everyone ready for a $1000 electric bill, and a 800 gas bill and 8-10 $ a gallon gas at the pump.I THINK NOT Cliff
