THE CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY OF GLOBAL WARMING Print E-mail
Written by Christopher Monckton   
Tuesday, 24 November 2009

This is what they did - these climate "scientists" on whose unsupported word the world's classe politique proposes to set up an unelected global government this December in Copenhagen.

An unelected global government with vast and unprecedented powers to control all formerly free markets, to tax wealthy nations and all of their financial transactions, to regulate the economic and environmental affairs of all nations, and to confiscate and extinguish all patent and intellectual property rights.

The tiny, close-knit clique of climate scientists who invented and now drive the "global warming" fraud - for fraud is what we now know it to be  - tampered with temperature data so assiduously that, on the recent admission of one of them, land temperatures since 1980 have risen twice as fast as ocean temperatures.

Now we know why: As a revealing 15,000-line document from the computer division at the Climate Research Unit shows, the programs and data are a hopeless, tangled mess. In effect, the global temperature trends have simply been made up.

THANKSGIVING IN PERSPECTIVE Print E-mail
Written by Dr. Joel Wade   
Friday, 27 November 2009

Though the spirit of Thanksgiving began with the abundant harvest in 1623 that Jack refers to in Why Liberals Can't Celebrate Thanksgiving,  Thanksgiving as a national observance began in 1789 with George Washington's proclamation for a national day of thanks, in honor of our then brand new US Constitution.  In Washington's words, its purpose was:
"to recommend to the people of the United States a DAY OF PUBLICK THANKSGIVING and PRAYER, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness."
So when we celebrate Thanksgiving, we are not only practicing gratitude in general, with all of the practical benefits that this can bring. We are also honoring our founding principles, as were put forth so brilliantly and realistically within our Declaration of Independence and Constitution.

But right now, you might be thinking, we've got an abominable commander in chief, a congress and senate that are out of control, we are racking up debt and discouraging business like never before, and the world, by our absence, is becoming more dangerous every day. So what is there to be thankful for?

Plenty.

THE GOOGLE DROID: and Other Thoughts From Scottsdale Print E-mail
Written by Mark Gilligan   
Friday, 27 November 2009

Even though I'm on vacation in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona, I can't resist telling you about the latest techie innovations.

Recently a new phone was made available to Verizon customers in two models with a new Droid OS from Google. At first look it is quite an impressive smart phone. The two models covered are the Motorola models that flip open to reveal a keypad, and the Eris, which is a touch screen accessible device, similar to the iPhone.

The Motorola Droid has a slide out keypad and is presented with 24 bit color ( 16.7 million ) and the Eris has 16 bit colors with ( 65,536 ). The HTC Droid Eris has a 528 MHz MSM7600 processor with 147 MB of memory.  The Motorola Droid has the 550 MHz ARM Cortex A8 with 256 MB of memory.

It is only a matter of time before different versions of the Droid OS will make it to additional US carriers. Hopefully other carriers will not do what Verizon has handed to their customers.

HALF-FULL REPORT 11/20/09 Print E-mail
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler

Perhaps you've enjoyed reading about how Israel has "brushed off" Zero's demands for no more Jews in Jerusalem.  Zero has now stamped his foot and claimed it was "dangerous" for Israel to ignore him and build more homes for its citizens.  Israel shrugs.

It is becoming blindingly obvious that Zero's antipathy to Israel is due to his being a Third World America/Israel-hating Moslem at heart.  There couldn't be clearer evidence for this than his appointing radical Moslems to key positions in the Department of Homeland Security.

We should not be surprised that someone who bows to the King of Saudi Arabia would do this.  What did America expect by electing someone with three Moslem names and attends a church that prays for God to damn America?

Zero's election is an ultimate object lesson regarding the masochism of the fear of envy.

THE DOMINO OF HONDURAS Print E-mail
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler   
Thursday, 19 November 2009

Tegucigalpa, Honduras.  It is an overwhelming, inspiring experience to be here.  There are no people in the world more worthy of our admiration and respect right now than Hondurans.

For the initial background on the situation here, see The Bravest Country In The World from last July.  This is what's happening now.

First, the description of Honduras in the State Department Travel Warning is a lie.  The US ambassador, Hugo Llorens, is the most despised man in Honduras for his bootlicking of Mel Zelaya, and insists on warning Americans not to come here.

This country is at peace.  There are no roadblocks, no problems of any kind that I saw.  Everything is normal.  There are no demonstrations.  I went to all four entrances to the Brazilian embassy where Zelaya is holed up.  They were blocked by concrete barriers and armed police guards - who couldn't be more bored for there was absolutely nobody, not one single lone demonstrator for Zelaya to be seen.

From taxi drivers to businessmen to shoppers in the malls to folks on the street, Hondurans are extremely proud of how their country stood up to the bullying of the world.  "We are the little country that could," is an expression you hear often.

WE'RE NOT OUT OF ACES YET: or The Apple Farmer, The Gambler, and Chicken Little Print E-mail
Written by Rebel Holiday   
Friday, 20 November 2009

People often ask me what it's like being married to Jack Wheeler.  One interesting aspect of all these 26 years talking with Jack is that he is Mr. Macro, Mr. Global, Mr. Big Picture Philosopher. 

By contrast, I am Ms. Micro.  Naturally a people-person, my career has involved working with individuals mostly in business since 1997, before that training men and women in effective change in their lives since the 1980's.  While I was focusing on how individuals and businesses change and make things happen, Jack typically thinks about how America and other countries change.

Influenced by Jack's macro interpretations of what America is going through, it seems to me that America has been living like that Kenny Rogers' The Gambler.  Perhaps in more ways than we care to face. The song admonishes, "You never count your money when you're sitting at the table," which may also turn out to be one of America's mistakes.

The Gambler continues, "I can see you're out of aces..." and for America that could be a grim reality or possible future.  This is a lot of what we hear lately on the news, and for good reasons. But there's only so much value in seeing the down side. And we're not out of aces yet.

AMERICA HAS A HUMILIATED FOOL FOR A PRESIDENT Print E-mail
Written by Jack Kelly   
Friday, 20 November 2009

President Obama took his massive ego and sparse historical knowledge to Asia last week.  The results were so ugly even the New York Times took notice.  Obama's Pacific Trip Encounters Rough Waters was its headline over a news analysis yesterday (11/19).

The humiliation began in Singapore, continued in Japan with his now-infamous bow to Emperor Akihito, and climaxed in China where his communist hosts made an utter fool of him.

Throughout it all, he remained cluelessly oblivious to his humiliation.

IS OBAMA CAMPAIGNING TO BE A ONE-TERM PRESIDENT? Print E-mail
Written by Jack Kelly   
Wednesday, 18 November 2009

What were President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder thinking when they decided to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the chief architect of the 9/11 attacks, and four other al Qaeda bigwigs in a civilian court in New York City?

From the standpoint of politics, this decision makes no sense.  According to a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll released Monday (11/16), only 34% of Americans support the decision to try the al Qaeda bigwigs in a civilian court.  64% say they should be tried by a military commission, as the Bush administration was planning to do.

The decision is unlikely to grow more popular with time.  At a minimum, a highly publicized trial will remind Americans of the 9/11 attacks, something Democrats have been encouraging us to forget.

The potential consequences for the United States of extending to these terrorists the constitutional rights afforded U.S. citizens in a civil trial are grave. And should the terrorists walk due to legal technicalities, Mr. Obama's presidency will be in the grave.

FORT HOOD AND THE MAKING OF AN AMERICAN TERRORIST Print E-mail
Written by Alex Alexiev   
Monday, 16 November 2009

Much has been written already about what happened at Fort Hood last week but precious little as to why it happened. To understand why it happened it may be useful to start by reminding ourselves again that the mass murder at Fort Hood was the first act of suicide terrorism on American soil by a homegrown Islamic extremist.

To come to this conclusion we do not need to know what motivated Major Malik Nidal Hasan, but only that he was a Moslem and that he was on a suicide mission.  There is no doubt about the former and little doubt that somebody embarked on mass murder in a military base had much hope of coming out alive.

The real question then, is not what made Major Hasan commit mass murder, but how he became a terrorist. It is a question of seminal relevance given the strong probability that homegrown terrorism might well be a greater threat to homeland security in the future than foreign jihadists.

To understand the nature of the problem a quick look at the origins and evolution of Islamic extremism in America and its sponsors is essential.

CLUELESS, DESPOTIC, OR BOTH? Print E-mail
Written by Richard Rahn   
Wednesday, 18 November 2009

Do you think people who refuse to (or cannot for whatever reason) purchase health insurance should be subject to a $250,000 fine and/or five years in jail?

Well, a slim majority of the U.S. House of Representatives seems to think such a draconian (and probably unconstitutional) measure is just fine because that is one of the provisions of the health care reform bill they just passed.

A person, or group of people, who are unable to think through the consequences of their actions and often resort to oppression of others are either clueless or despotic.  Thinking and compassionate people, by contrast, understand that there may be many good reasons why people do not buy, or do not wish to buy, health insurance.

The health care bill is Exhibit A to demonstrate that a majority of Congress is now clueless/despotic when it comes to economic sense or understanding about how the U.S. Constitution was designed to protect individual liberty. Then there are Exhibits B, C & D.

IS THERE ANOTHER GOVERNOR LIKE SARAH PALIN? Print E-mail
Written by Dewey Whetsell   
Thursday, 19 November 2009

The last 45 of my 66 years I've spent in a commercial fishing town in Alaska. I understand Alaska politics but never understood national politics well until this last year. Here's the breaking point: Neither side of the Palin controversy gets it. It's not about persona, style, rhetoric, it's about doing things. Even Palin supporters never mention the things that I'm about to mention here.

1- Democrats forget when Palin was the Darling of the Democrats, because as soon as Palin took the Governor's office away from a fellow Republican and tough SOB, Frank Murkowski, she tore into the Republican's "Corrupt Bastards Club" (CBC) and sent them packing. Many of them are now residing in State housing and wearing orange jump suits.

The Democrats reacted by skipping around the yard, throwing confetti and singing "la la la la" (well, you know how they are). Name another governor in this country that has ever done anything similar. But while you're thinking, I'll continue.

Roatan, Honduras.  It's far easier to get from the US to here than from Tikal, Guatemala.  It took me an entire day.  You can fly from Houston (Continental) or Atlanta (Delta) nonstop in less than three hours.

Roatan is the largest of the Bay Islands off the Honduran Caribbean coast, 37 miles long and five miles at its widest, home to 30,000, some 3,000 of whom are expats from the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Europe.

Increasing numbers of Americans are figuring out that this is the tropical paradise they've been looking for as a safety escape while Hurricane Obama passes by.  I'll have lots more to say about it in my report on Honduras next week.

***
I just learned from TTPer Paul Rosenberg, developer of Cryptohippie, that I am a character in a libertarian video game called 2011: Obama's Coup Fails.  It posits that after the Dems suffer devastating losses in the 2010 elections, Zero suspends Congress and rules by executive decree.  An armed rebellion breaks out.

The player (you) joins the leaders of the rebellion, known as The Founders, in combat against the crumbling Marxist forces of Obama's loyalist Black Tigers, the Islamic fundamentalist Nation of Malsi, and The Cong - a group of de-elected Democrats.

Evidently, I am one of The Founders.  In the Breaking News section of the game, a news bulletin entitled "Hillary Clinton Finally Captured," dated March 15, 2011, begins:

"Upon receiving an anonymous tip, the forces of Jack Wheeler, Ollie North, and the CIA were able to track down and capture former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton."

I don't know the game designers, and just found out about this from Paul.  But it's cool, don't you think?

That's the fun news.  Now for the ominous news.

THE APOCALYPSE OF 2012 Print E-mail

Tikal Mayan Ruins, Guatemala.  I just got a wonderful birthday present from my wonderful wife.  Knowing that scuba-diving is my favorite outdoor activity, and that I've dreamed of diving the famous Blue Hole in Belize - that's what I got for my birthday.  It was incredible.

Just across the border in northern Guatemala are the gigantic Mayan ruins of Tikal, so I caught a bush plane over to here, and after exploring the ruins am now ensconced in a lodge where I have an internet connection so I can write this - while being serenaded by roars of howler monkeys and barks of toucans in the surrounding jungle.

The Tikal temple complex was built by an impressive and successful culture that flourished from 400 to 900 AD.  Then it died.  It wasn't conquered.  It just collapsed, died, and vanished from history, leaving behind only the extraordinary ruins overgrown with jungle, and the Mayan people mired in subsistence poverty, totally ignorant of the great achievements of their ancestors.

Sure sounds like a possible future for America, the future the current White House occupant seems determined to have for us.
