You hilarious but definitely psychotic moonbat...

VERY VERY few servers and routers anymore (if any) allow pings or
tracerts to be done anymore, due to the snot noses running DoS attacks
for fun and frolic.

Go ahead...tracert me...you sure won't get much!

  AP: Obama now leading...by 2         


Author: DeserTBoB
Date: Feb 8, 2008 21:41

From the AP wire...

As of this evening, they're virtually tied in pledged delegates, with
Obama having 796 to CLinton's 794. There are still 91 delegates left
to apportion, with 20 out of California, where state party rules
apportion delegates according to the vote totals in each individual
Congressional District, and California has 55 of them. Fully a third
of the undecideds come from Colorado, where Obama narrowly won the
state, but Clinton did especially well in the rural precincts. In
most states, rules provide for more delegates for winning rural
precincts than urban. In some areas, notably in California's rural
north, vote tabulation isn't 100%% complete and thus is uncertified by
the County Registrars, and thus, delegates cannot be awarded by the
party.

Clinton leads Obama in overall delegates now, 1,055, more than half
needed to win the nomination, while Obama has 998.

The total of delegates awards on Tsunami Tuesday dwarfs the amount
that will be awards on "Super Saturday" this weekend, when Washington
state, Louisiana and Kansas vote.

  No third party run for Ron Paul (if you care).

From the campaign site:
http://www.ronpaul2008.com/

I am committed to fighting for our ideas within the Republican party,
so there will be no third party run. I do not denigrate third parties
-- just the opposite, and I have long worked to remove the ballot-
access restrictions on them. But I am a Republican, and I will remain
a Republican.

So, those banking on Ron Paul, with his fairly consistent under 10%%
nationwide everywhere, going third-party, forget it.

  ZOGBY POLL GOOFS ON CALIFORNIA .... OR PLAYS POLITICS?         


Author: AnAmericanCitizen
Date: Feb 8, 2008 21:27


I'm beginning to have less and less confidence in polls. In addition to their being
wrong so often, I have to wonder if they are wrong purposefully for political
reasons....pulling for Obama? Show poll numbers favoring Hillary so Obama voters get
out to vote. Same for the republicans....McCain not showing so well?....put out a
poll saying Romney is leading. Isn't there too much power in the hands of pollsters?
Particularly when so many polls are done by major media outlets that are known to be
anything but non-partisan?

I remember a few years back, I think it was Rush that interviewed Zogby who freely
admitted he leaned left. I've never trusted his polls since.....AAC

Zogby poll goofs on California

February 8, 2008

Super Tuesday may have lacked a runaway winner in either party, but when it came to
anticipating the outcome of both primaries in California, there was one clear loser
-- the Reuters/C-SPAN/Zogby poll.

"We blew it," pollster John Zogby said.

He pointed out that the polls he supervised got the victors right in six other races
Tuesday (impressively, his had Barack Obama winning narrowly in Missouri, unlike
other last-minute surveys).

Climate Change: Not every scientist is part of Al Gore's mythical
"consensus." Scientists worried about a new ice age seek funding to
better observe something bigger than your SUV — the sun.

Back in 1991, before Al Gore first shouted that the Earth was in the
balance, the Danish Meteorological Institute released a study using
data that went back centuries that showed that global temperatures
closely tracked solar cycles.

To many, those data were convincing. Now, Canadian scientists are
seeking additional funding for more and better "eyes" with which to
observe our sun, which has a bigger impact on Earth's climate than all
the tailpipes and smokestacks on our planet combined.

And they're worried about global cooling, not warming.

Kenneth Tapping, a solar researcher and project director for Canada's
National Research Council, is among those looking at the sun for
evidence of an increase in sunspot activity.

  Collapsing ice shelf may not have been the victim of global warming

Collapsing ice shelf may not have been the victim of global warming
Last updated at 13:36pm on 7th February 2008

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id...

Global warming may not be entirely to blame for the collapse of an
Antarctic ice shelf in 2002, according to research published today.

The 10,000-year-old Larsen B ice shelf was initially believed to be a
victim of climate change.

But a paper published in the Journal of Glaciology claims the shelf
had been teetering on collapse for decades.

Professor Neil Glasser, of Aberystwyth University, the paper's lead
author, said cracks and fault lines in the ice had significantly
weakened the structure.

Global warming may not be to blame for the collapse of the Antarctic
ice shelf

"Ice shelf collapse is not as simple as we first thought," he said.

"Because large amounts of meltwater appeared on the ice shelf just
before it collapsed, we had always assumed that air temperature
increases were to blame.

UN supports India's position on climate change

SMS NEWS to 58888 for latest updates

NEW DELHI: The United Nations on Wednesday supported India's position
on climate change and pulled up the United States for its failure to
do enough to curb the green house gas (GHG) emissions.

"No, I don't think that the US is doing enough on either front to curb
emissions. In that manner, not a single industrialised country is
doing sufficient to tackle the climate change," Yvo de Boer, executive
secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate
Change, told reporters in New Delhi.

He said that with only two years left for negotiations that will end
in Copenhagen at the end of 2009 as decided by the recent Bali summit,
there was a need for enhanced global cooperation particularly between
developed and developing countries in tackling climate change.

De Boer favoured developing countries including India's stand on the
fight against climate change and said they cannot be forced to
compromise to set emission targets at the cost of their development.
