As Algore becomes more and more unhinged about "global
warming" - his latest hysteria was to proclaim this week that "Our earth is in
a full scale planetary emergency" - people are searching for the cause of such
weird behavior.
They have found it in Roswell, New Mexico.
It was on a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell that
an alien space ship crashed on July 8, 1947.
This is a well known incident long covered up by the US Air Force and
the Federal Government.
But just why would the government engage in such a cover-up
conspiracy? What really happened at
Roswell?

THE COLORADO CANARY |

The meta-story regarding the mid-term elections is how the
Democrats can't wait to get to the voting booth to inflict electoral doom upon
their enemies, while Republicans are so depressed they will either stay home or
have to be dragged to the polls.
Maybe, but there's this Colorado canary in the Democrat coal
mine that's warbling a contrarian song.
In Colorado you can vote up to 30 days ahead of election day
by absentee ballot. To do so you must
of course request a ballot. The absentee
ballots won't be counted until November 7th, but what is known is
the number of requests for them.
It turns out that the number of requests by registered
Republicans is way up from past years while those from registered Democrats is
way down.
Here's more of the buzz heard in the halls of the Capitol
Building three weeks out:

THE DEATH OF THE ARGUMENT FOR MAN-MADE GLOBAL WARMING |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
|
|
Thursday, 19 October 2006 |
One year ago, in September 2005, you learned what is
actually causing whatever global warming the earth is experiencing.
Solar Warming
explained the specific mechanism involved:
the sun's increased magnetic activity deflecting the rain of cosmic rays
upon the atmosphere, resulting in fewer clouds reflecting sunlight back into
space and thus a warmer earth.
This month, scientists at the Center for Sun-Climate
Research at the Danish National Space Center in Copenhagen released the results
of very well-designed and controlled experiments demonstrating the chemical
mechanism of cosmic ray action upon cloud formation.
Folks, this a big
deal. These are the results of a
controlled experiment by serious scientists, not some GIGO
(garbage-in/garbage-out) computer climate modeling. They experimentally demonstrate how the cause of global warming
or "climate change" is the sun, not us.
The argument for
man-made global warming is dead.

NORTH KOREA: THE NEXT CHRISTIAN NATION IN ASIA |

|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler

Friday, 20 October 2006 |
2008. That's the number that dooms North Korea's
lunatic tyrant Kim Jong-il.
If there's
one thing the Chicoms in Beijing are not going to let anyone screw up, it's
their coming-out party to the world, the 2008 Olympics. They are not about to tolerate some nuclear
fruitcake causing a million-death war on their doorstep. That's why they are studying Romanian
history, circa 1989.
That was
the year that communist generals in the Securitatae (secret police)
staged a putsch and seized power after executing Romanian dictator
Nicolae Ceausescu and his wife Elena.
Their death by machine-gun was videotaped. Baby Kim has a copy, and is requiring all his subordinates to
view it. It's to teach them a lesson,
but you'd think that it would give them ideas instead.
It's a
good bet that the Chicoms will soon be instigating a Romanian-type overthrow of
Baby Kim and installing a new regime in Pyongyang. It won't be a pro-West democracy promising disarmament and union
with South Korea - but it will be far less belligerent and far more peaceful.
Such a
regime will be a colony of China and will resist demands for genuine democratic
elections. What it won't be able to
resist is its being rapidly Christianized.

WHY IS NORTH KOREA OUR PROBLEM? |
|
|
|
Written by Jack Kelly
|
|
Wednesday, 18 October 2006 |
As the U.S. takes the lead in formulating the international
response to North Korea's (apparently fizzled) nuclear test, there is a
question which ought to be asked:
Why is this our problem?
In 1950, this was easy to answer. The fledgling
democracy in South Korea was too weak to protect itself. North Korea was
then an agent of an international Communist conspiracy. But that was more
than half a century ago. The Soviet Union has collapsed.
North Korea remains Stalinist, has a formidable military,
and still dreams of conquering the South. But its objectives are
peninsular, not global, and it has little likelihood of obtaining them, even
without American intervention.
That's because South Korea now has a formidable military, which could be made much more
formidable if the South Koreans chose to do so. South Korea today has
more than twice the population of North Korea, 24 times the national wealth.
So why can't the South Koreans take care of the
problem themselves?

THE IMMORALITY OF LOSING A WAR |
|
|
|
Written by Ralph Peters

|
Wednesday, 18 October 2006 |
Have
Americans lost the will to win wars? Not just in Iraq, but anywhere? Do we
really believe that being nice is more important than victory?
It's hard
enough to bear the timidity of our civilian leaders - anxious to start wars but
without the guts to finish them - but now our military leaders have fallen prey
to political correctness. Unwilling to
accept that war is, by its nature, a savage act and that defeat is immoral,
influential officers are arguing for a kinder, gentler approach to our enemies.
They're going to lead us into failure, sacrificing our soldiers and
Marines for nothing: Political correctness kills. It's all in the Army's new counterinsurgency doctrine laid out in
Field Manual 3-24. The doctrine is so dishonest and cowardly
that it's message is: Let our troops die, just don't hurt anyone's feelings.

WHY SHOULD WE RESPECT OUR ENEMIES? |
|
|
|
Written by Tibor Machan
|
|
Wednesday, 18 October 2006 |
Freeman Dyson, who is a famous physicist and Professor
Emeritus at the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton University, argues
in the current issue of The New York Review of Books
that the 9/11 Moslem terrorists are deserving of “respect” :
"Yes, I wrote that we should respect our enemies as
human beings in order to understand them. I do not retract or apologize for this
statement. I would like only to add a more general statement, that our lack of
respect for our enemies made it harder for us to deal with them
effectively."
Yet it needs to asked:
Why should one respect someone as a human being? Does the mere fact of
membership in the human species amount to some worthwhile achievement? No.
Why then respect one merely for being human? Hitler was human, child molesters are human
and it is pretty preposterous to consider them worthy of any sort of respect. So, that part of Professor Dyson's claim is
arguably false. Let's take the other
part. Why would lack of respect imply lack of understanding?
Much of the world around us deserves no respect at all, yet
we can understand it pretty well. As a physicist, while he understands them, does
Professor Dyson respect the electron or the quark?

IDEAS THAT MAKE THE WORLD WORSE |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Joel Wade
|
|
Friday, 20 October 2006 |
In the "post-modern" philosophies that have so affected our
current culture, the most harmful fundamental idea is this: Because we don't
know everything about something, we can't know anything about it, so any "narrative" is just as valid as any
other.
This is the idea that leads directly to so much muddled
thinking, so much acceptance of ridiculous theorizing, and such a lack of moral
clarity today.
This idea leads people to accept other ideas that are based
on theory, wishful thinking, or ideology, rather than looking to confirm or
disconfirm them through scientific study. If we can't really know anything
anyway, what's the difference?
Let's look at some of these other ideas, many of them from
the field of psychology, that make clear thinking, rejection of false ideas,
and moral clarity difficult:

POLITICAL NASDAQ – October 13-19, 2006 |

Friday, 20 October 2006 |
The market continued
upward over the last two weeks, as it has since mid-July. It took a hit as the US confirmed the
nuclear test in North Korea, and the media showed the medieval rally of
torch-bearing peasants in Pyongyang.
North Korea declared that the UN had issued a "Declaration of War", and
President Bush signed the long delayed detainee bill.
The market stumbled but carried on with its upward
inertia and apparent Democrat election victory. Yet this Wednesday (10/18), our DDI predictor of market movement
flipped to down.
Which means something happened to make Republican
prospects on November 7 go up.

WHY ARE THERE NO ARABS ON STAR TREK? |

Written by To The Point News

Friday, 20 October 2006 |
The Saudi Ambassador was ushered into the Oval Office for a
meeting with the President of the United States. After a cordial discussion, Prince Turki Al-Faisal leaned over to
President Bush to say:
"Mr. President, there is something that puzzles me about
America. Actually it puzzles my son, so
I thought I should ask you about it."
"Whatever I can do to help explain life in America, I'll be
happy to do so," responded Mr. Bush.
The Ambassador lowered his voice. "My son is a big fan of your television show ‘Star Trek.' He noticed that Captain Kirk is American,
Scotty is Scottish, Chekhov is Russian, Sulu is Chinese. The Star Trek crew is quite international,
yet there are no Arabs. My son is quite
upset about this, and doesn't understand why there are no Arabs on Star Trek."

NORTH KOREA'S NUKE TEST FLOP |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler

|
Tuesday, 10 October 2006 |
[Note: Written the day after North Korea exploded its "device," an Update with new information is now appended at the end.]
The public face of Bush Administration officials regarding
North Korea's nuclear test is a mask of utter seriousness, or "grave
concern." Behind the mask, folks are
laughing their heads off. Meanwhile,
the world's dumbest nuclear scientists - namely, those in North Korea - are
terrified of what Baby Kim will do to them when he finds out the truth.
Essentially, we have a replay of the total fiasco of
Baby Kim's headline-garnering missile test launch last July.
North Korea's claim to have successfully
conducted a test explosion of a nuclear bomb on Monday (October 8) has resulted
in even more public hysteria that its missile tests, and even more private
laughter. The test shows the entire plutonium stockpile of North Korea is worthless: It's not "weapons grade" so bombs cannot be made ot it. Here's why.

IMPLODING IRAN |

Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler

Thursday, 12 October 2006 |
[This is the text of a speech I am giving on Friday,
October 13 to an organization composed of prominent conservative leaders
throughout the country called the Council for National Policy. --JW]
How many of you here have been members of CNP since the
1980s and remember the critical role the CNP played in generating support for
anti-Soviet freedom fighters? Please
raise your hand.
Keep them up, thanks - now, the rest of you notice who these
folks are. Remember them, and after
this panel, go up to them and ask them what it was like 20 years ago when the
thought of collapsing the Soviet Union seemed completely off the wall.
Yet it was the incessant, unrelenting, demand of thousands,
millions, of conservatives who belonged to organizations led by members of the
Council for National Policy, that enabled the Reagan Administration to support
and supply with money, training, and equipment, anti-Soviet freedom
fighters. And that turned out to be the
key to winning the Cold War.
I want to talk to you today about how you, as current
members of CNP, can play the same role in winning the war on Islamofascist
terrorism by ridding the world of its principal sponsor, the Mullahcracy ruling
Iran.

CELEBRATING COLUMBUS AND WESTERN CIVILIZATION |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
|
|
Thursday, 12 October 2006 |
Today, October 12, is the 514th anniversary of
Christopher Columbus' landing on Guanahani (now known as San Salvador or
Watlings) island in the Bahamas on October 12, 1492.
Unfortunately, Columbus Day is for most Americans just an
excuse for a three-day weekend, which is why it fell on Monday, October 9. What it should be is a commemoration and
celebration of Western Civilization -
which is why the Left hates Columbus and his holiday.
Fortunately, North Korea's botched nuclear bomb explosion shooed the Columbus
Day protestors off the newspaper pages and television screens.
Thankfully ignored was the usual spectacle of American
Indians using the holiday to denounce the White Man and his genocidal
war-mongering culture-destroying earth-murdering imperialism, blah blah blah -
with White Liberals joining in, masochistically condemning their own
civilization.
But they will be at it again next year, so let us suggest to
them now that they abandon every vestige of the civilization they hate as so
evil - for else they are bottomless hypocrites.
Not just every material benefit - electricity, the wheel, and all post-Stone
Age inventions. Every psychological vestige as well - starting with the very
concept of American Indian or Native American or any other collective term.
For the reality is that there were no Indians in
America when Columbus discovered it.

BRAYING JACKASSES CANNOT BE TRUSTED TO LEAD AMERICA |

Written by Tony Blankley

The BBC reported on
October 10 that in the Indian state of Jharkhand, villagers fled their homes to
escape a rampaging herd of grief-stricken elephants. "They say the animals
are agitated because one of their herd disappeared. Officials say the missing
animal became disoriented, and fell into a ditch and drowned over the
weekend."
There was no mention in the BBC report whether or not the village jackasses
were braying with delight at the sight of the distressed elephants.
Of course the Indian people are always disturbed when their elephants run
amuck, because, since time immemorial they have relied on the strong,
intelligent and friendly elephants to do their heavy lifting for them. The
donkeys simply do not have the mental or physical capacity to substitute for
the prized elephants.
Meanwhile in Washington...

IF ONLY DEMOCRATS HATED KIM JONG IL AS MUCH AS GEORGE BUSH |
|
|
|
Written by Jack Kelly

Thursday, 12 October 2006 |
If Democrats went after America's enemies with the
relentless ruthlessness with which they attack Republicans, the Axis of Evil
would be toast.
No sooner had North Korea made its (either botched or faked)
nuclear bomb test last weekend than Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid and
Sen. Hillary Clinton were blaming it on "the failed policies of the Bush
administration."
Democrats tend to view foreign policy crises through the
narrow prism of their impact on domestic politics. But the villain here
isn't Bill Clinton or George Bush. It's Kim Jong Il. And what's
important here is not which party controls the House of Representatives.
It's whether we can prevent a second Korean War.
The Democrats are behaving as if the cost of another Korean
War with thousands of American soldiers dead is the price they'd willingly pay
to gain control of the House.
