Dear Readers,

I’ve only got a couple of minutes, but let me just say, something needs to be done about climate fraud.  Before the EPA and the Obama administration takes one more step down the “Ban All Breathing”, suicidal, Eco-Marxist inspired, (de)Cap(itate) and Trade(away our future),  maybe we need to get a grip and look at facts instead of  the fabrications of Climate Gate “Scientists”.

I admit, I was wrong when I said that there is no man caused global warming.  It appears now that a few scientists have created it out of whole cloth and foisted it on us.  Yep, they created it with data manipulation, erasure, and an inbred “peer-review” system that had lots to do with rubber-stamping political allies work, but nothing at all to do with science.

The science has been shown to be swiss cheese, not settled.  Still, the political wing of the “CO2 is killing us” crowd continues.  Fact means nothing to politics and that is why the idiocy of Cap and Trade can proceed (really it is the only rational way that it could have been contemplated at all).

As I’ve mentioned before, the plan to knee cap our trade makes no rational sense.  The less we manufacture the more China and India do, the net effect is not only negligible, in global terms, it is the inverse of what you want.  Making things on the other side of the world and shipping it to America is not CO2 efficient, it isn’t efficient in any way at all.  It is demonstrably and obviously stupid. 

If you think you are smart because you believe in Global Warming but you can’t wrap your brain around the proceeding, you are a lost cause and should not breed.  Let me reinterate that point by telling you that it is your duty, since you believe this, NOT to breed and crowd out superior organisms, humans use energy that causes CO2, also they breathe, more CO2, also, especially the vegetarians, pass gas (fart) this methane, molecule for molecule, traps hundreds of times more heat than CO2.  So please, for the polar bears, enough with the cabbage and the beans.

Okay, I’ve slipped into some classic rip riffs on the stupidity that is Anthropogenic Global Warming.  It’s just so stupid I can’t stand it.  It is SO stupid that to anybody who really thinks about it the political nature and purpose of the thing is clear.  Why CO2?  Because that’s what energy produces, energy use makes us productive and free.  Marxists (like BO) don’t like people mobile, free, or even productive really.  They want dependant serfs.

What is remarkable, and why I bother to mention this again, is that it is being revealed that the idea of Anthropogenic Global Warming came before the science. (smirk) I mean “Science.”  Why is Obama still rushing ahead with this?  To save the planet?  Just more evidence that it isn’t “Science” it is REALLY Marxist politics.

Bernie Madoff, a former NASDAQ Chairman, has admitted to running the Ponzi scheme that some believe to be the largest investment fraud in Wall Street history.  Uncle Bernie, who people entrusted all their retirement money to, provided massive profits to a few, but as always happens with a Ponzi scheme, past pay-outs are simply bait to draw in the suckers who end up holding the bag.

It may indeed be that Uncle Bernie committed the largest investment fraud, but it is by no means the biggest fraud.  Bernie’s scheme preyed on a fairly rich and exclusive group, as a result people felt fortunate to have Uncle Bernie, former Chairman of the NASDAQ stock exchange, handle their retirement funds.  People had confidence in Uncle Bernie.

Alas, Uncle Bernie handled them, but not well.  I don’t know if the fraud was designed from the start or simply a matter of things getting out of control.  Is Bernie a common thief or just not up to his resume?  Thankfully, I wasn’t an Uncle Bernie investor and hopefully you weren’t either.

Unfortunately, I fear I am involved in Ponzi scheme.  Unlike Madoff’s victims, this fraud isn’t going to limit itself to a few elites, instead I’m pretty sure it will affect everyone I know and just about everyone else. Yes, if you are reading this I expect you are caught up in it too.

A lot of people have confidence in Uncle Sam.  I’m referring to the flag hatted, white bearded, personification of the United States of America, land of the free and home of the brave.  But what I’m really talking about is our constitutional government. (or formerly so)

You see people who don’t have time to pay attention have pretty much trusted Uncle Sam (our government) to look out for us, for our children, look out for all our best interests.  We invest heavily in Uncle Sam.  Unlike Uncle Bernie you don’t really have a choice with Uncle Sam, Pay up or go to jail.  I think because we can’t really do anything about it we cross our fingers and hope that our forced investment will pay dividends.

I hate to say it, but I feel like I’ve fallen for the Nigerian Email scam.  No, it’s worse than that.  I feel like my stock broker fell for it and is telling me how great a deal he got for me.  I know he just got taken, I know about the fraud that he fell for, but it is my money he lost.  Or was.

So Uncle Sam is supposed to be looking out for my best interest.  I think defending our borders is something Sam should do.  Instead we entice illegals with jobs giving benefits to other illegals.  (Yes, if you are wondering if I meant to say what I said, I did.  Let me say it again: I think our governments, Federal, State, and Local, are hiring illegal aliens to administer welfare programs to non-English speakers and that fraud is not just incidental but is central, pervasive, and massive in these programs.)

By funding ACORN it is clear that our federal government engages in vote fraud.  That Chris Dodd and Barney Franke aren’t in prison suggests that Sam, in our name, is okay with mortgage fraud. 

We have spent Trillions of dollars building government, trouble is the maintenance cost of government is what kills.

“Government is not the solution to the problem, government is the problem.”  Ronald Reagan

Clearly more on this is coming.  I’m just exhausted by the idea that we are going to impose more taxation and control through Cap and Trade and the Government health care plan that nobody wants.

Dear Reader,

Nothing stays the same.  That is true of my work situation as much as it is true of life in general.  I’m really talking about specifics though.  I am not going to have the leisure of long break periods with access to the Internet with which to further my writing on these pages.

As with everything, this could be bad, or this could be good.  I won’t be able to sit down and fict.  (fict is a new word that I just made up.  the act of writing fiction and a slapdash way  that does not deserve the keystrokes that make up “write fiction”) Sadly I wasn’t really doing that anyway.  So, I hope that I can develop a habit of writing at home. 

Stay tuned.  And if I begin to slow an encouraging word might be more effective than you’d think. 

Thanks for your kind attention

What’s Boiling in the Melting Pot

I’ve been stewing a couple of days now and it is my current excuse for not writing.  I started two posts and they languish as drafts because I wasn’t getting to my point fast enough.

So here it is:  Unlike Gen. Casey I do not believe that diversity, in and of itself, is a valuable goal.  Despite being informed over and over that it is our diversity that makes us strong in mandated training instigated by the same government that gave us Gen. Casey I do not believe it.  It is idiocy as a goal and as a belief. 

Everyone knows that it is unity that brings strength, even in yearly mandated brain-washing sessions it is clear that the trainers desperately want us to be unified in our belief that diversity is desirable or even the key to our success.  It is not.

Diversity is an irritant.  Diversity of opinion causes confusion and disagreement.  Diversity of purpose leads to failure.  And diversity in our military, as the primary goal of the U.S. Army, led directly to the deaths of 19 and the wounding of 30 more.  How many who were not so catastrophically injured as the wounded and dead were terrorized by this act or disillusioned or damaged by this man as he pursued Jihad instead of his sworn duty as a U.S. soldier?

E Pluribus Unum

Diversity is our condition in the United States of America.  It is a reality that has advantages and provides opportunities IF IF IF IF IF we are united.  From many one or if I may, OUT OF OUR DIVERSITY UNITY.  But friends, country-men, we have been deceived into believing that diversity for diversities own sake is good.  Think a moment.  It is not.

On the Statue of Liberty there is an inscription that includes the words, “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breath free. . .” There are a lot of huddled masses in the world.  Fact: we can’t take them all.  So which ones?  . . . yearning to breath free!

Now, I don’t believe this inscription is law, but accidentally, perhaps without intention, it speaks the truth.  The United States grew strong as people from all over the world came here to pursue freedom. 

THAT is what United us.

We are stuck now on the huddled masses, some want a free hand out, not freedom.  We don’t want any-one’s feelings hurt instead of insisting on freedom of speech.  We let people come here and live here illegally, we let people live in their diverse communities within our borders and not assimilate.  We let people come here who don’t want to be here and want to recreate their home-land here.  Give us your poor LONGING TO BREATH FREE.  Give us your down trodden LONGING TO BREATH FREE.  Give us your huddled masses and have them melt into our country not bring their diversity and not share our central ideal of freedom.  Come here if you want to BREATH FREE. 

Frankly, if you don’t want that you really need to leave.  There is only one place like the United States of America.  Only one place that was founded on this idea of freedom.  There is no place left on Earth where you can go if you are Longing to Breath Free and we loose America.

So someone so highly placed as Gen. Casey yammering on about how a worse tragedy than 19 dead would be to loose our diversity just makes me want to puke.  This on the end of contemplating putting people in prison who don’t or can’t buy government approved insurance, on the end of taxation consuming half our work lives, added to more taxation and more government control of our freedom of movement masquerading as Capt. Planet.

I just want to vomit. . .

No, you know what it is?

I long to breath free.

The science is settled.  Everyone agrees.  So why are we the only ones doing anything about it?

The Portland City Council and Multnomah County have launched their locality into a brave, if foolish, new world.  Gathering stake-holders (not sure where you get the stakes) they hammered out a bold new plan to reduce green-house gas emissions by a startling 80% from their 1990s levels, in effect bringing our energy use back to the 1870s.  Idiotic or visionary ahead of their time? 

Perhaps boy Genius (and molester) Mayor Sam Adams etal. saw the future of the United States, less and less production, job losses continuing, businesses failing or becoming the nations only export, and they had wisdom and foresight to have the stake-holders in to hold while they just went ahead and hammered that stake right through the heart of business.

No confirmation as yet of reports that Randy Lenard is taking violin lessons.*

“So Steve,” you say, “What if Global Warming really is going to do all the horrible things that ALL the scientists agree, especially the ones funded by the government to do studies to assess global warming?”

And I have got to agree.  That would be bad.  Really bad!  So if all this is going to happen why isn’t anybody trying to figure out what to do when it happens?  Huh? 

Didn’t see that coming, did you?

No, though the science is settled.  Yep, we are doing it.  There is no talk about what we are going to do to survive the apocalypse. . .   . . .now. . . IF temperature was going to rise markedly one might, if one were rational, want to plan what that temperature might do to growing seasons and what not.  One might be concerned about the reported paucity of water on one hand and the horrible storms the climate change will undoubtedly cause and create reservoirs to hold more fresh water so island nations don’t disappear, thus solving one problem with another.

But no, all focus is on CO2.  Why do you suppose that is?  I mean if we were really serious about saving the world from calamity there are more draconian measures we could take or even more effective ones that don’t involve nuking China and India.  Like. . . ,staying in transportation, what if we painted all our parking lots and roadways a nice reflective white? Madness you say but imagine how much solar radiation would be reflected harmlessly back into space instead of being trapped and allowed to warm our dear defenseless planet.  Roofs could be white too, or mirrored– out out damned energy!

Then too, broccoli, cabbage, and all legumes must be outlawed.  Now people, I know that SOME people like these foods, but you have to realize that methane gas (a major component of ummmm, errrr, well. . .   . . . flatulence) is 10,000 times more effective, or should I say planet wrecking DaNgErOus, at trapping heat. GASP! 

Now I don’t hear a lot of talk about rounding up all Vegans, but darn it, were talking about the survival of the planet here.  Sacrifices must be made.  And I, for one, am giving up broccoli.

It turns out that even Vegans are not the worst offenders though.  Water vapor is even more pernicious and pervasive a heat trapping pollutant/necessary to life compound.  We can’t really do anything about our water problem, the planet’s surface is over 70% infested with what some people have called “THE UNIVERSAL SOLVENT.” In addition to the travesty that it is to have our pristine oceans almost totally composed of such a chemical, it turns out that when heated this stuff turns into (cough hack cough cough) WATER VAPOR!  We may already have reached a tipping point where more heating will just make more water vapor.  Where will it end?

Perhaps an ice-age, nobodies quite sure.  But the science is settled on Global Warming.  It IS a very inconvenient “Truth.”

Sometimes things just come to me.  Stop me if this is crazy.  What if we take all the greenhouse gas emitting water from out oceans and hurl it at the Sun? Could we extinguish the Sun and thereby save ourselves from global warming?

But seriously. . .

Nah, that’s too much to ask.

But really folks,  do you think that the United States or a particularly silly subset of US like Portland Oregon committing economic suicide is going to stop the globe (because natural sources out weigh human causes by orders of magnitude) or our global partners like China and India who are now doing most of the manufacturing from emitting these supposed pollutants and doing it with much less environmentally care? 

So now we come down to the nut.  The fun is over and it is time for the point.  Seriously.  These “environmental efforts” have nothing to do with the environment, they have to do with eradicating America, and in particular Americans, or at least controlling us.  It isn’t that they hate all people, though they do, it is that they hate American people in particular and with passion.

Who are they?  I’ll call them Neo-Coms.  The new communist, trans-global, superior, revolted by troglodytes that claim to be of the same species.  China is admired by these people that carp about the CO2 we create, but don’t notice that the filth from China actually reaches across the Pacific Ocean to pollute the wilderness we don’t even let our own people go into. 

Why? Because while China is able to exploit the environment to create wealth, it is effective in controlling its population so that wealth can be concentrated in the hands of the elite.  Get a Neo-Com mad enough you might get him to admit that in his mind people are the problem.  What am I talking about!?!  Listen to them at all and you see that they hate people.

So let me bring it home.  Portland Oregon is going to reduce it’s carbon emmisions by 80%, or as I like to put it, commit economic suicide.  I have the consolation to know that though this action will ruin lives and destroy a pretty nice place to live (not to mention my property value) morons like our Mayor, Sam Adams, and his thug pal, Randy Leonard (could he really have been a fireman?) are not the elites they think themselves.  They are Mao’s useful idiots, tools of the Neo-Coms, soon to be discarded when they have worked their ruin.

I’ll see you guys in the rice paddies.

* This wee bit of aberrata was to associate Randy with the mad Emperor Nero who famously fiddled while Rome burned.  Notably Nero blamed Christians for the fire that he probably started on his own.  Like I said, mad. 

Randy is mad. . .     . . . alot.
