Those left-leaning environmentalist types are a sneaky bunch.  Complaining about the current state of the economy while pushing legislation to stop it in its tracks.
First, the good news: (link no longer active) the U.S. economy grew more than expected in the first quarter, beating analysts expectations. We can all rejoice that it’s quite possible to avoid a recession, as defined by two consecutive quarters of negative growth.
While the Democrats continue to push any available news that the U.S. economy is in trouble and it’s the fault of the …

Representative Edward Markey (D-Massachusetts) is planning to file a bill to reduce U.S. carbon emissions by 85% in 2050. And here I thought the plans offered by Clinton, Obama and McCain would destroy the economy.

Pseudo-conservative and presumptive Republican Presidential nominee John McCain’s global warming has taken the air out of the sails of many conservatives in the United States. McCain’s plan is to reduce carbon emissions to 50% from 1990 levels by 2050 and, while this is an easier target than the Lieberman-Warner bill (70%) or the Clinton/Obama plan (80%), the economic impact of ANY plan will be devastating. While McCain’s proposed cap-and-trade system to achieve this lofty goal is shaky at best, it also serves as a new energy tax and …

In the most ridiculous and blatant attempt to change your lifestyle, ABC News is suggesting that we all cut back on our meat consumption by one-quarter. The problem? Livestock are just too darn bad for the environment. Cows are fed soy and corn and, pay attention, the fertilizer used to grow corn is manufacturered by a facility that uses fossil fuels to harvest and process the feed. What we’re seeing here is a politicizing …

Welcome to the Global Warming Week-In-Review! I hope everyone will take a few minutes out of their day to call, visit or remember their mother today as we celebrate Mother’s Day here in the U.S. Now, let’s get down to business.
Sunday, May 4th:
A new threat was unveiled Sunday as scientists determined that recent shark attacks were brought on by none other than global warming.  While this theory sounds good to those pushing the global warming agenda, I wonder how long it will take before any bad situation is …

Al Gore continues to spew the global warming nonsense.  This time in Columbus, Ohio he lectured on the dire consequences we’re experiencing today, a direct result of global warming.  Gore said the polar ice caps are melting at an alarming rate (Ed. note:  they’re also refreezing at a record rate).  Droughts are dragging on, floods are getting stronger, etc.  Gore interestingly did not use the hurricane example.  I guess when your increased hurricanes due to global warming theory doesn’t pan out, you just drop it from the list of cited …

I’m constantly amazed at the pure arrogance and hypocrisy displayed by the global warming crowd.  Beginning with Al Gore’s statement that the global warming debate is over to current day, the environmental left in this country, and world, show little regard for human life and, instead, use fear-mongering, incomplete data and pure speculation to push their agenda forward.  The ultimate goal of many in the higher ranks of the global warming hoax is to enact control of your lifestyle and your money through legislation.
Here in America, we are known as …

Another Operation Desperation update: the myth of man-made global warming continues to unravel, folks, and now the desperate left- leaning environmentalists have resorted to name-calling again. First, Al Gore referred to skeptics of global warming as flat-earthers and moon landing hoaxers during a recent appearance on CBS’s 60 Minutes. Now they’re at it again. This time the libertarians are under attack and are being ridiculed for their blind faith in global warming skepticism, …
