It just gets better and better these days. From the always subjective NPR: “The Mystery of Global Warming’s Missing Heat”.

So in short, the global warming zealots have again been confounded by scientific evidence that refutes their crackpot ideology. The ice core samples, atmospheric data, and solar activity weren’t enough for them, so it’s not likely that this new oceanic evidence will do anything to change their mind.

The perplexed tone of the article is endlessly amusing. I mean, can you even comprehend  the sentence, “

These diving instruments suggest that the oceans have not warmed up at all over the past four or five years. That could mean global warming has taken a breather.Or it could mean scientists aren’t quite understanding what their robots are telling them.

In other words, when scientific instrumentation disproves man made global warming theory, liberals like to tell themselves  that there is something wrong with the data, not the theory.

Not only have the oceans not warmed up in recent years, but they have in fact  cooled since scientists started measuring them. Just like global temperatures have dropped during the past year enough to undo virtually all of the warming for the last century.

Even when the evidence is so extensive and clear-cut -remember, this is 3,000 robots telling scientists the same thing- global warming cultists continue to insist that their ideas are “scientific” and well-founded. As far as any objective and informed observer can tell, man-made global warming theory is neither.

Gore flat-out lied over and over again in his propaganda science fiction film, and none of the recent scientific data confirms his ideas.

Temperatures are dropping across the board, and global warming proponents cite this as evidence of their theory. If the temperature rises, it’s covered by their theory. If the temperature drops, it’s covered by their theory.

That means that the theory is not falsifiable, and non-falsifiable theories are not scientifically legitimate. Marx and Freud are classic examples of theories that claim to explain everything, no matter what happens either way.  If you can’t disprove a theory, you also can’t prove it. A theory that claims to explain everything ends up explaining nothing.

I continue to relish in the amazing divide that the Democrats are still experiencing. Do they choose the leftist establishment superbitch or the vacuous half-black-former-Muslim motivational speaker?

I swear, 20 years ago this would have been an SNL skit or something.

The pantywaists at DailyKos are fighting with each other. Cuomo talks about how “ruinous” the dynamic can be for the party if it continues into August, which means a lot for a former New York governor these days.

But the greatest thing ever is this:

Just look at those imbeciles! “Not ‘God bless America!’ God damn America! God damn America! It’s in the Bible!”

 

It’s just hilarious. Watch the Best of Rev. Jeremiah Wright here.

 

Meanwhile, McCain is resting up, getting his machinery in position. At this point, I don’t see how his election can be anything but inevitable. It just goes to show you how important party unity is.

I’ve avoided weighing in on this topic for a while, half out of laziness. But I also wanted to take my time with it, because the reaction that everyone would expect of me is not what I want to give.

I’d love to get all indignant and self-righteous about this, and use it to attack Democrats and make fun of liberals. But it’s just not working for me this time.

I am not particularly shocked by this, in part because he’s not my governor, but mostly because politicians get caught with this stuff all the time. And men all over the world visit prostitutes. Of course I don’t condone it, but it’s naive` to get all crazy about this.

The media loves it, but you shouldn’t.

It’s not like he got caught lying under oath about getting blowjobs from an intern on Easter Sunday or anything. And no one’s heard about any cigars yet. And he hasn’t been accused of rape by anyone and he didn’t ejaculate on anyone’s clothing.

Ann Coulter said, “Clinton’s scandal was hilarious; Spitzer’s is just depressing.”

It’s not political, it’s just a shame that this successful guy made bad decisions and will be known as “client #9″ for the rest of his life.

Which leads us to an interesting comparison. The reason why Lewinskygate was such a big deal concerned not only Clinton’s long history of sexual deviancy and infidelity and the fact that Monica was a White House intern.

It was because the scumbag lied about it to 300 million Americans under oath. He manipulated people around him to try to get out of it. And worst of all, he got away with it.

Spitzer on the other hand, got caught, came clean, and resigned, like any decent person would do in his position. In short, he made a mistake and did the right thing by fessing up to it and stepping down.

Spitzer will be paying for the mistake his entire life. Clinton is still regarded as a demigod by liberals. It’s funny how the Democratic Party works sometimes.
