Media Hype On 'Melting' Antarctic Ignores Record Ice Growth

The media is once again hyping an allegedly dire consequence of man-made
global warming. This time the media is promoting the ice loss of one
tiny fraction of the giant ice-covered continent and completely ignoring
the current record ice growth on Antarctica. Contrary to media hype, the
vast majority of Antarctica has cooled over the past 50 years and ice
coverage has grown to record levels since satellite monitoring began in
the 1979, according to peer-reviewed studies and scientists who study
the area.

Are you all cowards?

The Bush administration, so often in arrears on the relief front, has
earmarked some 770 million dollars or so in funds dealing with the
problem. There is one glaring hitch: the money would only start
flowing in 2009. ‘There is definitely a lag time when it comes to
assistance,’ states the senior manager of the Foreign Aid Reform
Project at the Brookings Institute, Noam Unger.

Many party members are having a hard time accepting John McCain

WASHINGTON (AFP) — While John McCain is practically assured the
Republican presidential nomination, many party members are having a
hard time accepting him -- and showing it with symbolic votes against
him in primary contests.

As many as 25 percent of Republican voters want a different candidate
to represent their party in the November 4 presidential election. In
Pennsylvania, 27 percent opted for Huckabee or Paul; in North Carolina
and Indiana on May 6, McCain opponents earned 23 percent of the vote.

Greenhouse hypothesis is invalid

It has become commonplace knowledge, and is unchallenged, that global
average temperature has not increased since 1998. This corresponds to a
9-year period during which the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide, in
contrast, did increase, and that by almost 5%%.

The greenhouse hypothesis - which asserts that carbon dioxide increases
of human origin will cause dangerous global warming - is clearly
invalidated by these data.

Tonight on Coast to Coast, a man came forward with a story. He said
his company had been highjacked to import drugs from South America,
and in turn, arms were sent to the region to fight the communists
sprouting up in Angola.

He wrote up the entire documented plan and sent it to Sonny Bono after
his company was taken from him. Reportedly, Congressman Sonny Bono
was going to begin an investigation into this scheme that cost the
reporter not only his business, but $250,000 in cash.

After Sonny was found dead from what was reportedly a skiing accident,
the man who lost his business began his own investigation into Sonny's
death. He said that the autopsy reports showed a damaged skull that
had only a small "45 caliber barrel" indentation on the "temple"
region of Sonny's head. And, Sonny did not put up his hand to try to
stop the impact of the tree he reportedly slammed into. Other factors
in the autopsy suggest too that Sonny was not killed by an impact with
a tree. One aspect of the report states that Sonny was skiing on a
flat region of the mountain. He was not going down hill at 30mph as
we were told originally.

Pure bunk. Summer is coming on. Each Spring, the ice begins to thaw
in the arctic just as it does in the antarctic when we experience
winter in America, it is summer in the southern hemisphere.

I watch a map of all ice zones in the arctic each day. I see how much
ice there is, and I see that yes, the last ice to freeze is the first
ice to thaw but that makes perfect sense. And, the amount of ice this
year is not more, but far less than in previous years that remains on
the North Pole / Arctic Zone due to the cooling effect of ZERO
sunspots.

You might recall that just a week ago or so, there was an article out
that described our cooling as a ten to eleven year temporary window in
the global warming trend. The scientists involved said that this was
a normal cycle of cooling. And many said that if we have normal cycles
of cooling, don't we have normal cycles of warming afterward?

Let everyone, especially students, hear the whole story about climate
science

Shooting the messenger of alternative climate science views not
constructive - students can only decide who to believe if they are
permitted to hear all rational arguments

Mike De Souza's piece, "Climate-change skeptics target kids", published
in various versions in mainstream newspapers across Canada, is a classic
example of how the climate debate has mostly been reduced to a war of
emotive, and politically loaded, words.

Thanks to environmental lobbyists untrained in science, the grandiose
proclamations of politicians who don't care about science, and, most
importantly, a ratings-obsessed media, we are on the verge of wasting
yet billions more trying to 'stop climate change', a physical
impossibility in a world where climate was changing eons before we were
even here to think about it.

Democratic country keeps its distance from Obama

Like most people in Mingo County, West Virginia, Leonard Simpson is a
lifelong Democrat. But given a choice between Barack Obama and John McCain
in November, the 67-year-old retired coalminer would vote Republican.
