Real Change I am sure by now that everyone has heard the numbers that John McCain has voted with President Bush 90% of the time, during the 110th congress. The Obama campaign has used this stat often to push the line, “John McCain, more of the same.” This being said, John McCain stated in his acceptance speech at the RNC, “Change is coming.” So who really is the “Agent of Change?” Barack Obama often talks about reaching across the aisle. His voting record however, supports the opposite. Barack Obama has voted 97% with the Majority Party of a congress with a 9% approval rating. So when Barack Obama votes with the majority of a congress that has seen unemployment rise from 4.7% to 6.1% since they took control, is he really offering the “change we need?” John McCain has consistently voted in opposition of his party 20% of the time since 2001. While I may disagree with him when he has reached across the aisle to create such legislature as McCain-Kennedy and McCain-Feingold, he has proven that he can back up his words. Obama has shown that he will offer only more of the same. Although to be fair, Obama’s 143 days in the senate before beginning his campaign for President may not have given him ample time to back up his words. As Gov. Palin stated in her speech at the RNC, “There are some candidates who use change to promote their careers, and then there are those who use their careers to promote change.” In November, the people will decide which candidate is “The Change They Can Believe In.”  09/05/2008 11:35 AM |

Polar Ice Caps Continue to Melt… ON MARS!!! Yes it is true, recent photographs of Mars appear to show that the ice caps have been diminishing for the past three summers. To put this into perspective, a Martian year equals 2 earth years. So, the ice caps have been shrinking for the past 6 earth years. This is very similar to the earthly patterns that are so often talked about by algore and the UN. These patterns can easily be explained by the fact that the sun is currently going through a hotter and more active phase. This would mean that in all likelihood, the sun and not man is the major cause of climate change. At least Earth’s icecaps are not like those on mars. The Martian icecaps are made up of dry-ice or Carbon Dioxide. While the militant-environmentalists would like you to think that no “real” scientists disagree with their opinion, this is far from the case. Habibullo Abdussamatov, the head of St. Petersburg Pulkovo Astronomical Observatory in Russia says that these observations are clear evidence that global warming is being caused by the sun. Algore and others often point to the charts showing CO2 levels corresponding with an increase in temperature. What they don’t show are the charts revealing that the sun also goes through cycles of increased activity. The sun’s cycles are very regular, occurring every 1500 years. While the temperature has risen .7 degrees over the past 100 years, it is in no way higher than it usually reaches during these solar peaks. One must only compare the three charts (temp. CO2, solar) to understand the situation. Simply create a cause and effect chart. The sun is the only one that can not be an effect. Therefore the sun must be a cause. On the contrary, CO2, seems to consistently increase in the past with temperature even though humans were not putting out CO2. This can be explained by the fact that warmer temperatures allow the atmosphere hold more CO2. While CO2 levels are at record highs, and this IS due to man, temperature has not spiked in the way one would predict based on the extreme jump in carbon levels. Only when one considers the sun as the source of global warming, do the numbers truly add up. So next time global warming is brought up, don’t blame the S. U. V., blame the S. U. N.

Algore the Hypocrite This video has recently surfaced on the internet in which algore rips Bush41 for aiding Sadaam in the war against Iran. He also ridicules the administration for not going after Sadaam. He continually mentions the multiple ties to terror organizations and the fact that Sadaam used WMD's. He also talks about Hussein's attempt to acquie nuclear weapons. Flash forward 15 years and he now is an outspoken critic of the war. Once again, top democrats prove to be the kings of hypocricy. They oppose leaving Iraq or entering Iraq depending on what the Republican leaders decide to do.  06/12/2007 09:32 PM |

Hillary Goes Communist Presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton outlined a broad economic vision Tuesday, saying it's time to replace an "on your own" society with one based on shared responsibility and prosperity. I think it sounds like a page from Karl Marx. Here's what I say,"How about taking responsibility for one own prosperity" The Democratic senator said what the Bush administration touts as an "ownership society" really is an "on your own" society that has widened the gap between rich and poor. "I prefer a 'we're all in it together' society," she said. "I believe our government can once again work for all Americans. It can promote the great American tradition of opportunity for all and special privileges for none." That means pairing growth with fairness, she said, to ensure that the middle-class succeeds in the global economy, not just corporate CEOs. "There is no greater force for economic growth than free markets. But markets work best with rules that promote our values, protect our workers and give all people a chance to succeed," she said. "Fairness doesn't just happen. It requires the right government policies." Since when is this ever the case? What does the government know about fairness? Clinton spoke at the Manchester School of Technology, which trains high school students for careers in the construction, automotive, graphic arts and other industriesI don't know how much play this will get on the news, but I feel that if this was played up correctly, it could seriously debilitate her campaign. America may be upset with Republicans but it would rather have red states than a red economy. -Chris  06/12/2007 02:08 PM |
