NOAA Rebukes Gore’s (& Other Warmists’) Snowstorm Claims

By Marc Morano, Climate Depot[Clarification: The NOAA report was published March 26, 2010, therefore it did not examine the winter of 2010/2011.] NOAA Finds 'Record-setting snowstorms were the result of natural causes' -- not man-made global warming! No human 'fingerprints' in record snowsorms! -- Excerpt: NOAA's Climate Scene Investigators (CSI) team's analysis indicates that's not likely. They found no evidence —no human 'fingerprints' —to implicate our involvement in the snowstorms. If global warming was the culprit, the team would have expected to find a gradual increase in heavy snowstorms in the mid-Atlantic region as temperatures rose during the past century. But historical analysis revealed no such increase in snowfall' Full NOAA report here.

No time for “petty-ness”

I am sending this note to a number of great folks that on some several issues, disagree. That is OK, because that is part of what makes us great. However, it is time to set those disagreements aside for the greater good. We need not spend any time or energy establishing who on our side is more correct in they manner they operate, or their local goals. We all do agree on who the real enemy of America is, and he and his organizations are well founded, united, and well funded. They have the singular purpose of destroying the Democratic Republic of these United States, and "re-form" it into a fascist/Marxist/Islamic state run by George Soros.

The Treasury growls as Nick Clegg pushes the green agenda

By Allegra Stratton, The Guardian The Treasury is the most powerful department in Whitehall, but it is busy making itself unpopular even by its own abrasive standards. Jeremy Heywood, the most judicious of civil servants, was recently heard to say that the government's attempt to create a new green bank had become a battle of "everybody against the Treasury". Everyone, it seems, including the prime minister's wife.

Bias and disinformation will be the order of the day

The Muslim Student Association at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, British Columbia is presenting an awareness event about Gaza on February 23. Judging by the notice on the Association's website, sfu.ca/~msa, advertising posters on campus and the content and tone of similar events at colleges and universities throughout Canada and the United States it will have nothing to do with reality and will be full of outright lies, distortions, hatred and attacks on Jews and Israel. Real awareness won't be on offer and anyone who tries to present a contrary viewpoint will either be shouted down or prevented from speaking in the first place. Bias and disinformation will be the order of the day and those who seek an accurate picture of the situation in Gaza and the reasons for it will have to look elsewhere...they certainly won't find it at this event.
