Apparent con-CERN over Global Warming, Climate Change, Atmospheric Neutron Intensification or whatever they are calling it these days.
The ranks of Global Warming’s true believers closed almost as soon as CERN’s latest findings got out. The sheer number of scientists, UN bureaucrats and politicians-speaking-as-scientists (see Gore, Al) is often cited as proof of man-made climate change. As if scientific truth were determined by majority vote. And climate change has won by a landslide!

You could almost feel the fear emanating from the official statement/caveat issued by the director of CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. Its scientists, it seems, had discovered something they shouldn’t have. Uh oh.
It would have been different if CERN’s experimenters had loyally backed up the conventional scientific wisdom/orthodoxy about Climate Change, formerly global warming. The name had to be changed when certain unfortunate facts kept turning up. As they will in real science.
Now the most embarrassing piece of evidence yet has made its appearance at that super-sophisticated physics lab over in Switzerland where they put atomic particles through their very fast paces.
This time CERN’s researchers have found that nearly half of the global warming observed of late isn’t traceable to man’s activities after all but to sunspots, specifically the fluctuations in solar cosmic rays that promote cloud formation. (I don’t understand it, either, but I’ll take the textbooks’ word for it.)
Whatever the scientific validity of the physicists’ findings, it’s dynamite politically. As CERN’s director, Professor Rolf-Dieter Heuer, must have well understood. Because, even before the experiment’s findings were published, he told his scientists to “present the results clearly but not interpret them” — lest they find themselves entering “the highly political arena of the climate-change debate.” Which, of course, is just where they now find themselves.
A 5-4 decision (don’t you hate those 5-4 decisions?) stopped the matching funds provision of the Arizona clean elections law. Chief Justice Roberts issued the decision of the court. It should be no surprise that the dissent came from Kagan, Ginsburg, Breyer, and Sotomayor. The decision also impacts the clean election laws of the State of Maine.
The holding in the case of Arizona Free Enterprise Club’s Freedom Club PAC v. Bennett was, “Arizona’s matching funds scheme, which provides additional funds to a publicly funded candidate when expenditures by a privately financed candidate and independent groups exceed the funding initially allotted to the publicly financed candidate, substantially burdens political speech and is not sufficiently justified by a compelling interest to survive First Amendment scrutiny.”
Justice Kagan observed that giving taxpayer money to candidates whom nobody wants to donate to gives more free speech. That is true, but is there, perhaps, a reason they are not getting as much money as the other candidate? Could it be that no one wants to hear from them?
The biggest issue is not the free speech issue. It is having taxpayers forced to listen to Communist and Fascists ideals instead of Constitutional ones. Campaigns, like corporations, should be financed privately and not with taxpayer funds.
The Supreme Court, also, recessed today for the summer. The 2012 term will begin October 3rd.
Williams–The Vietnam Veterans participating in the 2011 Run for the Wall arrived in Williams on May 18th to be greeted by a late winter storm. That did not damper their spirits and they conducted their traditional parade through downtown Williams on Route 66.
Mayor John Moore of Williams asked them to deliver a message to Al Gore, should they meet him, concerning global warming. It is suggested that John McCain, also a carbon taxer and believer in global warming, should check the weather forecast for northern Arizona.
As the war of words ramps up over the carbon tax, key independent MP Tony Windsor has revealed he received a menacing phone message over his role in developing the policy.
Mr Windsor, whose vote will be crucial to passing laws bringing in the government’s emissions trading scheme, said he was disturbed by the phone message.
“You’re a f***ing liar, a dog, a rat … I hope you die, you bastard,” the caller said, in a message played on the Seven Network.

Mr Windsor said there were some “points of commonality” to the debate over the rhetoric of the Tea Party movement in the United States.
In January a debate raged in the US over whether inflammatory right-wing rhetoric was to blame for a shooting spree in Tucson, Arizona that targeted Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and left six dead.
Mr Windsor feared something similar could happen in Australia.
“Just remember you could be responsible for driving someone that’s got a slight degree of mental illness to something that they wouldn’t normally do,” Mr Windsor said.
Puxatony Phil, the original ground hog and Constitutionalists saw his shadow today, as you might have read. He predicted an early spring and more opportunity to grow your garden for food for your family. Crops will flourish and food prices should stabilize as a result of the wonderful weather that God will provide.
Staten Island Chuck, Democrat from New York, said that the climate shift will cause a rise in the oceans wiping half of the human race from the face of the map. The early global warming effect will drown Polar bears out of existence. Crops will fail because the CO2 (That plants need to survive) will kill them.
Thus the scientific proof of global warming.
Please Note: The opinion of Staten Island Chuck does not necessarily reflect the opinions of the Constitutional Republic Party or their subsidiaries. Being from New York, he may be a Democrat. We are likely to go with the prediction of Punxsutawney Phil, however, since it all began with him and we believe he may be Republican.
The groundhogs have spoken – spring will come early this year.
Staten Island Chuck made prediction Wednesday morning even as he was pelted by freezing rain during the latest in a seemingly never-ending series of winter storms.
“Spring is coming,” cried Mayor Bloomberg as he held the wet woodchuck aloft.
His wooden home encased in a sheet of ice, Chuck bounded outside and seemed unfazed by the crowd of photographers and fans.
The Environmental Protection Agency is desperate for some friends in the Senate.
Republicans have made unraveling the Obama administration’s climate rules one of their top priorities this year, and with the GOP-led House expected to easily pass a measure to handcuff EPA’s authority, the rules’ fate may be determined by how hard the agency’s champions in the Senate will fight.
At least 56 senators — just four short of the 60 needed to overcome a filibuster — will most likely support measures to hamstring climate rules, and an additional eight votes may be in play this Congress, a POLITICO analysis shows.
Any congressional attempt to limit regulatory authority is always difficult to achieve, an industry lobbyist told POLITICO. But given the sluggish economy and the long list of moderate Senate Democrats up for reelection in 2012, “the chances are better than ever” for a vote to limit EPA’s authority.
EPA’s longtime supporters are preparing for the showdown.
Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) said EPA supporters are “not going to roll over and play dead. I plan to do everything in my power to … protect the Clean Air Act.”
PRINCETON, NJ (January 3, 2011)—S. Fred Singer said in an interview with the National Association of Scholars (NAS) that “the number of skeptical qualified scientists has been growing steadily; I would guess it is about 40% now.”
Singer, a leading scientific skeptic of anthropocentric global warming (AGW), is an atmospheric physicist, and founder of the Science and Environmental Policy Project (SEPP), an organization that began challenging the published findings of the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in the 1990s. SEPP established the Leipzig Declaration, a statement of dissent from the 1997 Kyoto Protocol that has been signed by over one hundred scientists and meteorologists.
Asked what he would like to see happen in regard to public opinion and policy on climate change, Singer replied,
I would like to see the public look upon global warming as just another scientific controversy and oppose any public policies until the major issues are settled, such as the cause. If mostly natural, as NIPCC concludes, then the public policies currently discussed are pointless, hugely expensive, and wasteful of resources that could better be applied to real societal problems.
In today’s “Everything Is Caused By Climate Change” segment, the folks at Time magazine offer a howler destined to start your morning off right with a chuckle: “Holiday Blizzard: More Signs of Global Warming.”
The contents were even more hysterical:
One theory is that a warmer Arctic may actually lead to colder and snowier winters in the northern mid-latitudes. Even as countries like Britain — suffering through the coldest December on record — deal with low temperatures and unusual snow, the Arctic has kept on warming, with Greenland and Arctic Canada experiencing the hottest year on record. Temperatures in that region have been 5.4°F to 7.2°F (3°C to 4°C) above normal in 2010. As a result, the Arctic sea-ice cover has continued to shrink; this September, the minimum summer sea-ice extent was more than 770,000 sq. mi. (2 million sq km) below the long-term average, and the third-smallest on record. Snow may be piling up in midtown Manhattan, but the Arctic is continuing its long-term meltdown.
Did the article have to mention that she was the former Arizona governor? Aren’t we ashamed enough?
Janet Napolitano.
(CNSNews.com) — At an all-day White House conference on “environmental justice,” Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano announced that her department is creating a new task force to battle the effects of climate change on domestic security operations.
Speaking at the first White House Forum on Environmental Justice on Thursday, Napolitano discussed the initial findings of the department’s recently created “Climate Change and Adaptation Task Force.”
Napolitano explained that the task force was charged with “identifying and assessing the impact that climate change could have on the missions and operations of the Department of Homeland Security.”
CANCUN, Mexico (AP) — Negotiators reported progress Thursday at the U.N. climate conference, setting the stage for agreements on a support fund for poorer nations and other steps easing global warming’s impact. The complex talks stretched deep into the night to try to meet a Friday deadline.
Once again this year the annual negotiations under the U.N. climate treaty won’t produce an overarching, legally binding deal to slash emissions of carbon dioxide and other global warming gases. From the start, the talks focused instead on a package of secondary items, including setting up the “green fund” for developing countries.
In that and in a half-dozen other areas, world environment ministers and other delegates were still haggling late Thursday over the wording of texts. But the conference president, Mexican Foreign Secretary Patricia Espinosa, sounded an upbeat note.
“The reports I have gotten are positive,” she told a late-night meeting of parties to the 193-nation treaty. “A broad and balanced package of decisions is, indeed, within our grasp.”
On the key issue of a green fund, Bangladesh’s state minister for the environment, Mohammed Hasan Mahmud, reported to the session that “we have narrowed down our gaps and there is convergence on establishing the fund,” but details remained to be resolved.
SEOUL — The world’s 20 largest rich and emerging economies including China vowed Friday to “spare no effort” at upcoming climate change talks in Mexico, a year after Beijing stymied a deal in Copenhagen.
Thirty-two states are on the path to UN-inspired carbon reduction, Cap-and-Trade schemes and unconstitutional alliances; the supporting Governors must be held accountable. Carbon reduction and population reduction go hand in hand. The United Nations failed to impose their treaties from the top down (the Kyoto and Copenhagen Accords) and the federal government has abandoned its unpopular national Cap-and-Trade scheme for now. Cap-and-Trade is being pursued on the state level, and one region has even raised over $700 million in carbon auctions. Continue reading “States of Emergency” »
