Glenn Greenwald – Dishonest Blogger??? Patterico – Criticism Is Lacking Something… Perspective. UPDATE X 3

Share Button

On the one hand, from what I’ve read on his blog, though I don’t think I’ve ever used him as a source for anything, Greenwald seems knowledgeable enough on the stuff that I’ve read. On the other hand, Patterico says he uses cheap party trick to make conservative bloggers seem disreputable, cherry picking, as it […]

Who else knew there was an internet security treaty being negotiated. Yeah. Neither did I. That’s not the problem. The details of the treaty are being kept super secret. That bothers me. Plus, there is a certain “World Government” feel to this whole thing. Here are some details: The Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement negotiations continue in […]

What is that, you say? Well Vallejo California is trying to place a tax on text messaging, in the guise of being a city utility. Testing…. A utility????? Yep. They already apparently have such a tax on cell phone service, though I’m not sure exactly what cell service the city provides that would allow it […]

Mahmoud Vahidnia. This incredibly brave soul, along with the protesters in Iran, should be Time’s Person / People Of The Year. Sadly, don’t be surprised if it goes to Barrack Obama again this year. Hat Tip: Sully

Quote Of The Week: “It isn’t helpful to anybody to exaggerate the situation. It’s scary enough as it is.”

Said by Vicki Pope, top Met Office climate hypocrite scientist kvetching about why no one believes in Global Warming anymore. Too many people exaggerate, she says. Problem is, her name is attached to articles with titles like this: Met Office warn of ‘catastrophic’ rise in temperature And she is prone to leaning on the “worse […]

Doug Hoffman – Two Lines Of Though.

Share Button

For those who have no idea who this is, he’s an independent candidate running for New Yorks 23 District Congressional seat.

Starving Farmers of Water… For Nothing.

Share Button

Well, the results are in. The scientific opinions that recommended that the way to save the Delta Smelt was to shut off the water supply to the West San Joaquin Valley farmers…  Didn’t work.

A Different Kind Of Stupid. UPDATE

First you had Van Jones, now this. Another Obama appointee has stepped into the spotlight of stupidity recently. Anita Dunn, the temporary White House communications advisor recycled from the Carter administration (OK, that sets off warning bells already), said in a speech earlier in the year that Mao Tse Tung is on of her favorite […]
