?Every adult in Britain should be forced to carry ?carbon ration cards??
2008-05-29 03:49:00
Control by Carbon . It will hit Great Britain first: Every adult should be forced to use a ‘carbon ration card’ when they pay for petrol, airline tickets or household energy, MPs say. The influential Environmental Audit Committee says a personal carbon trading scheme is the best and fairest way of cutting Britain’s CO2 emissions without penalising the poor. Under the scheme, everyone would be given an annual carbon allowance to use when buying oil, gas, electricity and flights. Anyone who exceeds their entitlement would have to buy top-up credits from individuals who haven’t used up their allowance. The amount paid would be driven by market forces and the deal done through a specialist company. The government decides how much “carbon” you are allowed, and if you exceed the limit, you pay. Is this registering with you yet? This isn’t the first time this idea has been floated out there. In November of last year, the same thing was offer...

Maybe This is Why Myanmar Didn?t Want to Let the U.N. In the Country
2008-05-28 19:23:00
From the International Herald Tribune: A British charity, Save the Children UK, said it had uncovered evidence of sexual abuse of children, some as young as 6, by United Nations peacekeepers and by workers from other international aid groups. Well, Ban Ki-Moon says he is going to get to the bottom of this mess: Calling the sexual exploitation of minors a “very serious issue,” Ban reiterated to reporters that he has a “zero tolerance” policy for such acts by U.N. personnel. “I think that the report is very valuable and does give us some good points to which the United Nations should continue to address this issue,” Ban said. “On all these cases which have been raised, we will very carefully investigate” and will take “necessary measures” where appropriate. When you get done with that, could you tell us what you all did about this: LAST MONTH A CLASSIFIED UNITED Nations report prompted Secretary General Kofi Annan to admit th...

Czech President Calls Out the Goracle
2008-05-28 19:08:00
"Czech President Vaclav Klaus said Tuesday he is ready to debate Al Gore about global warming, as he presented the English version of his latest book that argues environmentalism poses a threat to basic human freedoms. 'I many times tried to talk to have a public exchange of views with him, 'and he's not too much willing to make such a conversation,' Klaus said. 'So I'm ready to do it.'"

Herman Cain Wants You to Sound Off on Democrats - UPDATED
2008-05-27 17:49:00
Herman Cain writes: The American Energy Protection Act of 2008 (Senate Bill 2958) would remove restrictions on oil exploration and drilling in Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) and the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). This would have opened access to about 24 billion barrels of oil, which is enough to keep America running for five years with no foreign imports, while other energy technologies are being developed. … Senate Bill 2958 would have removed commercial leasing restrictions on oil shale rich areas of Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. Oil shale is a solid material containing oil, which makes it more expensive to extract than traditional oil liquids. But today’s oil prices have made access to this source of oil more cost effective. It is estimated that there are two trillion barrels of unexplored oil shale right here in the United States. That’s trillion with a “t”. … The original Senate Bill 2958 is stuck in committee. A few thousand emails t...

Looks Like my Financial Worries Are Over!
2008-05-27 17:23:00
Here I was worried about how I was going to pay for the trip to Las Vegas this September, and what do you know, I get this e-mail today: Dear Friend, I am an official for a bank here in Milano. I require your assistance and partnership in transferring huge amount of funds in euros out of my country. You will be required to: - (1) Assist in the transfer of the said sum. (2) Advise on lucrative areas for subsequent investment. (3) Assist me in purchase of landed & viable properties. I have all the information and guidance to enable you and I realize this opportunity.. Time is not in our favour; please establish secured communication with me through my email address. Regards, Francesco Pardo If I were a bank official looking for help transferring a HUGE amount of Euros, and then help/advice in investing said sum, I would look to the main writer for a small to mid level blog, who thinks that his future may lie in goat farming and edible flower jelly. This guy is obviously an idiot....

Obama Sees Dead People
2008-05-27 15:42:00
If McCain or Bush were making as many gaffes as Obama is making, they would be laughed out of office. You all know how they treat each and every error Bush makes as more evidence the President is an uneducated boob. But at least he never claimed to see dead people in the audience: Having mispronounced the name of the Florida city he was speaking in on Friday, as well as erred about what president was in the White House when Hugo Chavez took over Venezuela, Barack Obama talked about seeing dead people in the audience during a Memorial Day speech in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Of course, you’re not likely to hear about this, because it seems a metaphysical certitude Obama-loving media won’t consider this newsworthy. As such, consider yourself fortunate that Gateway Pundit found another delicious campaign mistake for us (video embedded right): On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes — and I see many of them in the audience here ...

Some folks went to parades today, some brought flowers to the cemetery to decorate graves of people you have lost, and some drank cold beer and ate pork ribs. Whatever you did today, I hope all of you will take a couple of minutes to remember the fallen soldiers, sailors, marines, and airmen who have given their lives in the service of this nation.

Speaking of peeks behind the curtain, how about what Representative Paul Kanjorski said on August 28, 2007? Wanna see a woman back-peddle? Hillary brings up assassination and the election in the same conversation. She didn’t really mean that Barack was going to get shot, but don’t let the Obamatons let facts get in the way. And finally, Tom Harkin, Democrat from Iowa, said that there is no way John McCain should be president. Why? His military record. It really shouldn’t surprise you.

Kos Kids Go Postal Over Magazine Cover With Barack in the Crosshairs
2008-05-23 01:22:00
The Roswell Beacon featured an article detailing how law enforcement officials were going to deal with racists who might be gunning for Barack . It is a great idea for an article, because that has to be an interesting subject. However, the Kos kids were a little upset with the graphic they chose for the cover of the magazine. A diarist named “spiralstairs” wrote on Daily Kos, “The article itself is not offensive, but the cover is beyond the pale. As indicated by the article, there are some serious racists in the area, and Obama’s candidacy has brought out the worst in a lot of people. The last thing we need is a newspaper to suggest assassination with an incendiary cover such as this.” Readers ? Kos receives more than 1.3 million visits a day, according to sitemeter.com ? were encouraged to contact the newspaper and its advertisers. By day’s end, Holiday Inn announced it would no longer do business with the Beacon… The paper’s publish...

The Hottest Governor in the United States to Sue the Interior Department?Ov
2008-05-22 18:15:00
Gov. Sarah Palin, mother of five and the Governor of Alaska, says “The state of Alaska will sue to challenge the recent listing of polar bears as a threatened species.” Ah, if we only have about forty-nine more governors like this hottie, er, governor: She and other Alaska elected officials fear a listing will cripple oil and gas development in prime polar bear habitat off the state’s northern and northwestern coasts. Palin argued that there is not enough evidence to support a listing. Polar bears are well-managed and their population has dramatically increased over 30 years as a result of conservation, she said. Climate models that predict continued loss of sea ice, the main habitat of polar bears, during summers are unreliable, said Palin, a Republican. Notice anything? They were sure to note, very clearly, that Palin was a Republican. Good for her. I think she might be a good choice for McCain’s Vice President. Maybe she could straighten out his glob...

This Is Not Homeschooling

Because Rebecca is enrolled as a government school student, the government must provide an adequate education. Since she refuses to go sit in the classroom, the local school board decided to pay for school to come to her. Unfortunately, she just didn't like her tutor. Or boarding school.

Ted Kennedy?s Cancer Treatment Under Socialized Medicine

It's true that not everyone has access to the same treatment Kennedy received, but that would not change under government run health care.

Live on BlogTalkRadio: Mon, Wed, & Fri Call In During The Show: (646) 716-8606 Launch The Podcast Player Bush vetoed the $300 billion farm bill, as he should have. But the ethanol drunk Congress will likely overturn his veto. The House has already voted 316-108 to over ride. But there is a glitch. Once again, the liberal Democrat Congress pulled in “Big Oil” to show the good people of America how much they care about them. Look at this quote: “People we represent are hurting, the companies you represent are profiting” What corporation isn’t after a profit? These socialist morons just don’t get it. The execs tried to educate these pinheads on basic economics, but I doubt it did any good. Facts have no place in a liberal’s decision making. Maybe the PM of Canada could teach our government a thing or two. “I don’t think government should fool people into thinking it can control the price of gas. It generally speaking...

If Chuck Norris Gets the Veeps Spot?

Chuck has written another article, this time describing what happens if he gets named as Vice President…for either ticket: If he continues to develop nuclear weapons, I will change the last name of the Iranian president from Ahmadinejad to Smith or Johnson — just because I can. For as long as I’m in office, his country will be renamed from “I-ran” to “You’d-better-run.” I will force all government leaders and agencies to follow the Constitution and Bill of Rights or deport them immediately to their new “Guantanamo Bay offices” in the newly incorporated U.S. territory of the North Pole. Because America will be a Chucktatorship and because I’m tired of the bickering of partisan politics, I am going to unite the Republicans and Democrats into one party, called the “Republicrats.” In order to slash the deficit, instead of Congress receiving cushy pensions that are more like lotteries, I will turn back the s...
