Komrades! Great news from the Eastern Front!
Real Americans continued to lose ground today with the announcement of that Obama's new Global Warming Czarina, Clintonista Carol M. Browner.....
- one of 14 leaders of a socialist group's Commission for a Sustainable World Society, which calls for "global governance" and says rich countries must shrink their economies to address climate change.
- Mrs. Browner's name and biography had been removed from Socialist International's Web page, though a photo of her speaking June 30 to the group's congress in Greece was still available.
- Browner headed the Environmental Protection Agency from 1993-2000 where she ordered the destruction of agency computer files in brazen violation of a federal judge’s order requiring the agency to preserve its records.
- She said there was no work-related information on her EPA office computer... just "computer games."
and... her name has been removed from the Algore organization's web site list of directors, and the Audubon Society issued a press release about her departure from that organization.
The Washington Post was able to write several stories on Browner's appointment without mentioning any of the above... imagine that.
See a round up on Obama's Socialist Momma courtesy of Michelle Malkin.
Speaking of communist and socials scum, none other than Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez reports that Uncle Fidel's got his heel on a banana skin...(hat tip to JammieWearingFool.)
Chavez said Sunday it is unlikely that ailing former Cuban leader Fidel Castro will ever appear in public again.
"That Fidel in his uniform who walked the streets and towns late at night, hugging the people, won't return," Chavez said during his Sunday television and radio program. "That will remain in memories."
Chavez, who says he is steering Venezuela toward socialism, fondly recalled the last time he and Castro appeared in public together during a trip to Argentina in July 2006.
"He walked to the door of the plane and we hugged. My God. I didn't think it would be the last time."
Stung by the criticism of dikes on bikes, half of the HGTV interior decorators, and the entire cast of "Milk", Obama is trying to make amends for choosing pseudo conservative pastor Rick Warren to deliver the inaugural prayer.
Obama has tapped New Hampshire Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson will participate in an event Sunday to kickoff inauguration festivities. He will offer a prayer at the Lincoln Memorial during the opening ceremony next Tuesday.
No wonder New Hampshire is so screwed up.
"Gay Bishop"?
Trustworthy politician?
Virginal starlet?
President George Bush, showing obvious symptoms of BDS--"Bush Derangement Syndrome"--is in the midst of "I'm So Sorry Tour-2009", and in perhaps his last jackal conference today--used his bully pulpit to...:
Cites disappointments, mistakes...
Defends response to Katrina...
Says Iran, NKorea remain dangerous...
'I have had my time in the Klieg lights'...
Obama 'will do what he thinks is right'...
'I chucked aside my free-market principles'...
Vice President Cheney exited the right way... pugnacious and not backing off anything.
That's been the problem for eight years, I believe Bush truly wanted America to like him... a major misreading of a majority of the nation.
They hated him as soon as he showed interest in public office.
They called him "Junior" when he isn't... Albert Arnold Gore Jr., son of Albert Gore Sr., is a "junior".
They hate him because of his Christian faith.
They hate him because he cared about his physical condition while in the most demanding office, and was the fittest President in history... 30 miles of mountain biking kicks hell out of a basketball pick-up game with smoke breaks any day of the week.
They hate him because his wife, Laura, acted like a wife who loved her husband and took on her First Lady role as a challenge, not a chance to make connections, fast cash and a career boost.
They hated his parents, apparently because his father was not an alcoholic intent on knocking up stupid American females, and his mother was not a tramp who abandoned her son.
They even hated his daughters (see: Sarah Palin's Kids Syndrome).
Essentially they hated him for being a normal American.
Guilty as charged.
Americans will look back on this man differently as they walk home to their government-controlled 62-degree apartments, clutching the meager pay they received as a temp government worker.
First, geez oh man people will claim ghpras are flawed if they don't what they say.Two, ghpras are dangerous because people think they're all scientific.Three, science is dangerous because people think it's all truthy.Four, people are dangerous because they basically believe whatever they want.And Five. The truth is that the delineation is probably unhelpful, except insofar as you can draw a line between when it was a bad idea to be expanding gov't expenditure and when it was a good idea to be expanding gov't expenditure. To do that, you'd have to go back a way, probably. When people were competing to buy houses in Baltimore County, it was time to raise the interest rate and tell everyone to go home to their wife and kids and play foosball or something.Once everyone starts firing everybody, that's when deficit spending starts to make sense. Hard to see that on this graph, though. Pretty colors, maybe.Oh, and six. Obama RULLEZZZ. I'll just leave that there.

Mr. Obama is a master of the tools in the old book How to Lie with Statistics . Let me hlhgiihgt a few issues, starting by pointing out that this plot does not represent jobs , but rather the change in jobs (math wonks call this the first derivative ). The correct plot requires a plot of actual jobs; you must add up all of the negative bars on the left. Then you notice that the job gains on the right are negligible.We also must remember that the important issue is POLICY, not PARTY. Following the election of a Democrat Congress in 2006 (off the graph to the left), Bush adopted the Keynesian and corporate socialist policies of the Democrats (as Richard Nixon We are all Keynesians now did, creating the Nixon Carter recession).Keynesians borrow money from the private sector and spend it on politically favored economic activity. The overwhelming body of peer reviewed economic scholarship shows that this loses jobs (tax cuts cause job increases). The first Keynesian stimulus bill was under Bush in early 2008 (jobs dropped). The second is under Obama. Jobs dropped horribly. In short, the policies still being advocated by the Democrats, implemented by a Democrat congress with the complicity of both Republicans and Democrat presidents, have lost nearly 7 million jobs, an average wait of 27 months for reemployment, and a 20% underemployment. Now, the job loss has stopped, for a moment, if we include census employees. Of course, the jobs loss HAD to stop somewhere; everyone can be unemployed. But this is not a vindication of the policies.Admittedly, any Republican who does NOT run on Repeal and Replace will NOT have an effective message against the misgovernment that Democrat policies constitute. They MUST run as Reaganites, recognizing that government is the problem . restoring the rule of law to economic transactions (no more taxpayer money to unions who supported Obama), and lowering the burden of government on people who create jobs.The Democrats could ALSO be successful if they also support such sensible policies. If they do not, they will need to lie with statistics, as in this plot.

Bush was hated because he never went after Osama Bin Laden.
Bush was hated because he lied about WMDs in Iraq and then outted the wife of the man who double checked his facts.
Bush was hated because he put a guy who arranged horse shows in charge of FEMA.
Bush was hated because he tried to pimp Creationism in schools.
Bush was hated because he tried to keep Terri Schiavo from getting her plug pulled.
Keep lying shmuck, maybe someday someone will believe you.

No conservative would agree with everything President Bush says or does, but it was disgraceful how he was treated by the Left and by the MSM (is that redundant?)... and how he was not defended by many in his own party.
Contrast that treatment to the way the President elect (and his often questionable appointments) are being treated.
The best thing our governemnt could do to help the economy is to not "help". Acceptance of all this group-think "green" propaganda is scary, especially combined with the bail out frenzy.

It is funny how there is currently a shift "Global Warming" to "Climate Change" and this is due to new information that the Earth is cooling. So now, it seems that driving my SUV is causing both heating and cooling of the planet at the same time. I am sure Ms. Brown can explain it to everyone as soon as she gets her orders from Al Gore first.
