There's Something Rotten in Denmark, er Warsaw

"Global warming Prof. Kevin Anderson ‘cuts back on washing and showering’ to fight climate change"
While planning for a "controlled recession".

If ever there was doubt that the whole climate change shake-down is a religion, or at least serves as a functional substitute, this should clear that up.

And for those who think that "scientist" means objective, neutral, clinical, dispassionate, unemotional this should clear that one up as well. Ball to Earth: scientists are human and humans are passionate reasoners, not Mr. Spocks.

PS -- the "Australia slids down" headline below offers at least a glimmer of hope. Well, not for English literacy.

AGW Denialist Smack-Down By U.K. "Youth Constituent"

First the grubby, gnarl-fisted, hump-backed AGW denialists (including the evil Marc Morano) spoke, if that's the right word, at their press briefing -- drooled would perhaps be better.

Then, THIS smack-down by a hand-picked U.K. "youth constituency" student who had been whisked to Warsaw for the latest UK "gimme--money - that's what I want, a lot of money, that's what I want" AGW gabfest.

I assume her expenses had been paid. Which means she was in the pocket of Big Climate Shakedown. Still, when one is in the presence of the articulate, the erudite, the eloquent, one swoons.

I can't help but think she didn't get a lot of sleep the night before.

For the full 30-minute press briefing and Q&A, go here.

Kristen Bartkiw - Canadian Criminal "Crack" er Mom

Canadian criminal "Crack" er Mom Kristen Bartkiw was fined for failing to provide crackers in her kids' lunch (or something close to this).

Here's a shot of her emaciated brood --

It's a good thing Canadian authorities are on top of what Moms feed their kids. Maybe next they'll tackle ensuring kids are born and raised within a stable relationship between mother and father -- "the institution formerly known as marriage". That's far more important to a kid's welfare than whether his or her lunch includes a cracker.
