A Small Island of Colossal Ignorance
Ok, Hank Johnson is the guy who replaced the completely unhinged Cynthia McKinney in the U.S. Congress, and that is a good thing. However, the above video denotes a complete ignorance of a kind rarely exhibited on the national scale.
Coming from a Party that regularly criticizes the Tea Party for being ignorant morons, I dare say that few Tea Party members would assume that an island will actually “capsize” as Representative Johnson theorizes.
Note that he also goes into Global Warming as a basis for his “theory” and is met with amusement by the military man he is questioning. These are the sort of things you might muse upon with a small group of friends as ignorant as yourself, but never talk about in public, much less on the floor of Congress.
I remember a similar situation while attending a class in college, with a young man claiming that he thought that oil extraction would lead to the world eventually collapsing because it became “empty”. He had a series of drawings that he projected for all of us to see, and if you knew little, you might actually have said he had a point. Except that he had zero data to prove his hypothesis. And even then it seemed ridiculous, and the instructor politely prodded him on the basis for his assertions. He came up blank, of course.
One can see why so many believe in Global Warming. They leave it to members of the Scientific community to be truthful, not be swayed by their peers or the temptation of large grants. They expect members of Congress to actually be smart enough to do what is right for our country, aside from Politics. But Politics drives such drivel, as does money.
I am constantly amused by members of the other side who dare to actually debate members of the Tea Party but do not understand the basis for their own points. They refuse to admit that our Govt is going broke, despite the fact that Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid ARE running out of money. They argue, not on facts, but because they wish their points to be true. And when confronted with the actual errors in what they are saying, they go into denial.
The moral of this story is to read and educate yourself. Prove your assertions and accept when you are wrong. Only by constantly debating your beliefs can you come to truth.

Global Warming Activist Freezes in Antarctica (Updated)
(Core story retracted by the media: While reported by many news organizations, including ecological websites, it appears that this individual did not actually die in Antarctica–I do stand by the rest of my comments, however)
This is too ironic to ignore. But it isn’t the first time that one of the “Greens” has gone to one of the two poles and found out it was not the expected sultry 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Dog sled “musher” Will Steger had a similar, if less tragic experience years ago. Did he learn? These type rarely do.
According to a story by Fox News, James Sneider and a Journalist friend talked about going to document the “devastation” of Global warming, but did not even disclose the details to his own wife:
“He kept talking about when they ‘get down to chili’, and I thought they were talking about the order in which they would consume their food supplies”, Mrs. Schneider recounted. “I had no idea they were talking about Chile, the country from which you usually fly or sail in order to reach Antarctica.”
Again, not smart. I constantly have to question the intelligence of these “Professors” of Climate Change, who are apparently completely unaware that temperatures in Antarctica get as low as 70 below zero (Fahrenheit).
I have reported on this nonsense before when we were told by some in the Goracle’s rabid legions in the media, “The North Pole might be clear of Ice this summer”. It’s easy to make such ridiculous claims, not much about Global Warming is based on facts, but what they also failed to recognize is that there are web cameras there where we can watch and see the facts. The result? Ice and more ice. In fact, there were times in mid-summer when the cameras seemed iced over.
Sneider and his friend were found frozen near their two snowmobiles, with orange rope spread out on the ice stating one cryptic message:
“Help-COLD” (No duh).
Perhaps it seems fitting that these people were eliminated by Darwinism, for it is certainly true that if one is not intelligent enough to prepare for extreme subzero temperatures simply on the basis of “I think they are lying about the temperature in Antarctica” is foolhardy.
I am not trying to make light of the deaths of two people, but some actions certainly lead to death. If Al Gore told you that gravity did not exist, would you jump off a skyscraper? Science is often common sense, and some should try to have some.

It’s no surprise: British Fairytales about Global Warming
What is surprising about an effort by Britain’s Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) is that regulators actually have said they have gone too far. This is tantamount to the Obama Administration telling Al Gore that he is going a bit too far with his rhetoric. That takes quite a bit, I think.
And these “fairytales” are the worst sort of indoctrination. But that is what Liberalism is all about. It takes years to implement radicalism, you need to start early.
What is also incredibly pathetic is that these rhymes–don’t rhyme!
“Rub a dub dub, three men in a tub — a necessary course of action due to flash flooding caused by climate change.”
The adverts then go on to say that “Climate Change” is real, yada yada, the world is dying, etc. (Isn’t this sort of fearmongering getting old?).
Here is another of these shameful fairytales:
“Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. There was none as extreme weather due to climate change had caused a drought.”
You might ask yourself, “Do these people have no shame?”. Well, if you have to ask by now, then you have really not been watching.
