This is not a new subject, just an example of what happens when governments fail to learn from their mistakes. It’s what happens when foodstuffs are used in biofuel production. Families from Pakistan to Argentina to Congo are being battered by surging food prices that are dragging more people into poverty, fueling political tensions and [...]

Hold Turkey Responsible, Not Israel
The ‘rush to judgment’ that the United Nations has made, portraying Israel as the bad guy by enforcing the blockade is stunning. Equally as stunning is the lack of support for Israel from Washington over this incident. Or the sinking of a S. Korean Navy vessel, or Iran’s nuclear bomb ambitions, or . . . [...]
Barack Hits A Hard Place, The United Nations
There comes a time when rhetoric just runs out of steam. Seems that is the case now over getting tough on Iran for its secret nuclear ambitions. Permanent Security Council member China has joined Russia in opposing Washington’s plans to impose tough, wide-ranging sanctions on the Islamic Republic over its refusal to suspend sensitive uranium [...]
Investing In Global Warming, Cap And Trade
Hardly a week goes by lately where news comes out that adds to the doubt about ‘man made’ global warming. From incomplete and manipulated data, to selective science of hand-picking tree samples, to lost or destroyed supporting data, and lately to statements of Phil Jones. Phil Jones was forced to step down as director of [...]
aSide Order
A note on man-made, man-ajustable, climate change. UN scientist admits unverified data used for politics… India, China won’t sign Copenhagen Accord… Calls for UN climate chief to resign… Scientists using ‘selective temperature data’… ‘Whites only’ basketball league announced And in the ‘you gotta be kidding’ category, except that it doesn’t look like they are, some [...]
Russia To Rest Of The World, Chill Out On Iran
Here we are again. Time is running out for Iran. If time is running out, then where is all this extra time coming from? This reminds me of the furniture store on the corner that has been running ‘going out of business’ sales for the last 8 years. Now stirring the pudding even more is [...]
ClimateGate News You Can Use
In what is being described as the climate conference in Hopenhagen, as opposed to Copenhagen, Bruce Bawer reports from Copenhagen and sheds the light on the real climate in Copenhagen that the mainstream media somehow fails to notice. Or, maybe doesn’t want you to see? It follows along the line of America is bad, capitalism [...]
Controlling The Message On ClimateGate
A senior member of the United Nations climate change movement shut down a journalist at a climate change news conference in Copenhagen for asking about the leaked emails and deleted data. It was enough to make Hugo Chavez (the hemisphere’s idiot) proud. It didn’t happen in Communist China, Iran, or Venezuela. It happened at a [...]
Today's Special, Global Warming Fearmongers
Not to be outdone by Michael Moore or Al Gore, check out the opening video at the United Nations Climate Change Conference 2009 (COP15) in Copenhagen. What’s that Al Gore quote again? Something about playing on our fears?
When Scientists Get Political
Weeks after climate-gate breaks the man-made global warming farce, or from their perspective, the man-made global thermostat adjustment plan, the focus turns to Copenhagen. All this as the Marxists of the world see their last best chance to cripple capitalist societies (mainly the United States of America) about to come tumbling down around them. Delegates [...]
