Cast Your Vote Against Earth Hour

The World Wildlife Foundation, supported by a call from the UN Secretary General, has asked everyone to "cast their vote" against global warming on March 28, 2009 at 8:30pm local time, by turning all their power off for an hour.
 
These Global Warming Scam (GWS) proponents state that they will present their vote tally at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen later in the year and are shooting for a goal of 1 billion votes. Since there is absolutely no way for them to accurately obtain any "voting" results, we can be assured that they will pull their tally out of thin air and assuredly meet their goal!
 
Those of us who live in the universe of rationality should make sure that we "vote", by turning everything on that we possibly can! Light up your house, turn on the yard lights, let your car sit and idle, if its cold outside - turn up the furnace, if its hot outside - crank up the air conditioning!
 
Al Gore and those who are devotees of his global warming, oh I'm sorry, climate change, lunacy are in the words of Weather Channel founder John Coleman, "pushing the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on mankind". Thousands of eminent scientists have spoken out against this nonsense, but their voices are largely silenced by major media outlets. This is about the money, with billions of dollars being spent on "green" initiatives. Al Gore himself is a major recipient, having increased his own net worth 9 times over since embarking on this path.
 
Unlike those who support the GWS, who rely totally on projections based on speculation, scientists in opposition present actual historical data which clearly shows that climate changes are cyclical. Already the GWS nuts have had to change their terminology to climate change in order to address temperatures growing colder instead of warmer. They are simply trying to keep this hoax going for as long as they can so they can continue to collect the dollars.
 
Let's not follow the lemmings over the cliff! Besides just the cooling we have seen, they have also had to backtrack on Arctic sea ice, which is not diminishing, but has grown at a greater rate than anytime in the last 15 years. They have had to back off of their claim that the number of hurricanes and their intensity would get worse, when that didn't materialize. They had to recant their assertion that severe weather was caused by increased global temperatures, when studies proved that this was totally false, and completely cyclical in nature. The claim that the Antarctic ice pack is in danger of disappearing was shown totally false when scientists had to admit that their is more ice than previously thought, so much so that it conceals a mountain range equal in height to the Alps, and the breaking away of ice shelves is a natural occurence.
 
Let's kick this GWS fallacy to the curb, tell the WWF and the UN to take a flying leap. In the 70's these fools told us a new ice age was coming and money was made on that, then we had the whole Y2K thing was foisted on us and that was a money making windfall for those pushing it, and now we have the GWS, where money is being made, and politicians are using it for major power grabs. It's time to take a stand for the truth!
 
So, turn it on, turn it up and vote against Earth Hour!

So Now We Are Deadbeats!

The United Nations Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, on Wednesday called the United States a "deadbeat", while speaking with members of Congress. Ban stated that while the US is a major contributor, it is also a "deadbeat", being the largest debtor and owing nearly 1 billion dollars.
 
Let's remember that the United States is not a major contributor, it is the largest contributor, paying 22 percent of the organizations 5 billion dollar budget. That 22 percent does not include aid contributions that we volunteer during disasters, and the costs we incur for our part of peacekeeping operations. It also does not address the millions of dollars in associated costs to house the UN in New York, including being stiffed for thousands of unpaid parking tickets!
 
We should also make note of the fact that the primary reason that the US is in arrears is that our government's fiscal year runs differently than that of the UN, so payment has not yet been made. Another reason that arrears exist is for the commendable reason that previous administrations, and Congress, have at times withheld payment in order to pressure the UN to take action on reforms and for policy disagreements. You know, reforms like the investigation and overhaul of programs like the Oil for Food program, in which 10 billion dollars, yeah, ten times the amount of our arrears was siphoned off fraudulently by corrupt UN officials. Most of these officials walked away with not even a slap on the writst. We have also tried to pressure the UN to deal with serious problems concerning abuses by UN personnel, including repeated reports of sexual assaults and other criminal conduct.
 
Did this insult receive an outraged response from our elected leaders? No, the White House issued a "rebuke", saying that the, "word choice was unfortunate". Democrat Congressman Bill Delahunt and Senator John Kerry, made comments not attacking this slur, but supporting Ban's position, even going so far as to say that, "his argument was well stated". Republicans weren't much more vocal, with the strongest response coming from Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, saying she, "took great umbrage", with his statement.
 
Wouldn't it have been nice to have someone stand up and ask the question that many of us have on our minds, "We are paying all this money, what are we getting for it?"
 
I cannot come up a good answer for that one, unless you believe it is okay for us to pay to be opposed constantly, and to have insults and slurs thrown at us and our closest allies. Or maybe the bang our buck is getting is in the vein of UN proposals in the areas of gun control and global warming, where drastic actions are being targeted directly at the United States.
 
I was told a long time ago that the skunk smells himself first, and I humbly suggest that this might better explain Ban Ki-moon's nonsensical slam.
