The American Spectator : AmSpecBlog : Cap-n-Trade by Any Other Name

My CEI colleague Marlo Lewis makes an important note in a blog post today. Specifically, last night Obama asked Congress to mandate that 80% of U.S. electricity come from ‘clean energy' by 2035. Amazingly enough, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) projected that under the House-passed Waxman-Markey cap-n-trade bill, about 80% of our electricity would come from ‘clean' sources by 2030."

The American Spectator : Texas Tea

Michael Williams walks into the room wearing his trademark bowtie and cowboy boots. He's a genial fellow with a booming voice and ready grin, but something about him says 'Don't mess with Texas.' It's a message Williams would like to carry directly to Harry Reid, as the Republican formally announces later today that he will be a candidate for U.S. Senate."

The year of living dangerously - Le Monde diplomatique - English edition

Get ready for a rocky year. From now on, rising prices, powerful storms, severe droughts and floods, and other unexpected events are likely to play havoc with the fabric of global society, producing chaos and political unrest. Start with a simple fact: the prices of basic food staples are already approaching or exceeding their 2008 peaks, that year when deadly riots erupted in dozens of countries around the world."

If you haven't checked out Herman Cain - do it - he's on Facebook. He's a breath of fresh air!

Get out of my car, get out of my house, get out of my business, get out of my Kitchen, get out of my computer....now get out of my....IPOD???? Is THIS what we elect these clowns to do????

How far will legislators go to keep you “safe”? Give them an inch…

Arkansas state senator Jimmy Jeffress tried to take a mile last week, but a flurry of national attention led the Democrat to abandon his proposal Tuesday that would have prhibited pedestrians from wearing headphones in both ears while on the street or sidewalk — all in the name of safety."

Hollywood Before and After 9/11- Ten Films That Stood Against Evil | NewsReal Blog

Hollywood has long had an active political climate. It is in the heart of tinsel town where the far Left has always had a level of comfort (See Ron Radosh’s Red Star Over Hollywood). Even when major studio heads like Jack Warner and Walt Disney stood strong against Communism during the Golden Years, the hard Left found ways to flourish. At the time Communism was regarded by many as the best reaction to Fascism, however, most Hollywood Leftists eventually saw the murderous realities of both destructive political mindsets and began to embrace America."

Before Making False Claims Against Glenn Beck, Perhaps Cenk Uygur Should Fix His Own “Jewish Problem” | NewsReal Blog

Sometimes the Beck haters enlist Jewish groups, such as the ADL or the Jewish Funds for Justice to spread the Antisemitic myths obviously hoping that because they have Jewish names the charges will stick, but make no mistake about it, neither the ADL or the Jewish Funds for Justice give a “rats arse” for their Jewishness; their real priority is advancing their progressive agenda."

Unintended Consequences, Anyone? Initial Thoughts on the State of the Union Address | NewsReal Blog

It seems that Obama is intent on denigrating and disparaging ANY positive or pseudo-positive efforts by the Bush administration. During his State of the Union address Tuesday night, he announced plans to “replace No Child Left Behind with a law that is more flexible and focused on what’s best for our kids.” The law would be modeled after his “Race to the Top” initiative. But both Race to the Top and NCLB fail to take into account the glorious differences in abilities that make up our crazy quilt of an American population."

President Government | FrontPage Magazine

The president’s State of the Union address was a reminder of how fast things can change in Washington—and how much remains the same inside the White House.

Some of the changes were visible and obvious—the absence of Nancy Pelosi and her permanent grin behind the dais, the growing number of Republicans in the chamber, the scrambled seating arrangement that had the welcome effect of tamping down the competing choruses of cheering and jeering."

Renewed Push to Give Obama an Internet "Kill Switch" - Tech Talk - CBS News

So, we "shouldn't be alarmed"....Internet kill switch.....
Get out of my car, get out of my house, get out of my business, get out of my cell phone, get out of my car, get out of my kitchen...NOW, get OUT of my computer!

A controversial bill handing President Obama power over privately owned computer systems during a 'national cyberemergency,' and prohibiting any review by the court system, will return this year.

Internet companies should not be alarmed by the legislation, first introduced last summer by Sens. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine), a Senate aide said last week. Lieberman, an independent who caucuses with Democrats, is chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee."

New Evangelical Left Film for Amnesty | FrontPage Magazine

But “justice” for whom? Undocumented.tv seems largely aimed at upper middle class, educated, white evangelicals who are slightly guilty about their privileges and are atoning through amnesty advocacy. All immigrants, whether legal or illegal, and no matter where they are from or why they came to the U.S., are characteristically lumped together, with their political and economic interests portrayed as interchangeable."

The Assassination Attempt You Have Not Heard Of - HUMAN EVENTS

It happened in September of 2010 in Missouri. A 22 year old named Casey Brezik, wearing a bullet proof vest, charged toward Missouri’s Democratic Governor Jay Nixon with a knife and attempted to slash his throat.

In light of the media’s race to talk about the right’s climate of hateful rhetoric, you have probably guessed by now that Casey Brezik was an anti-Christian, anti-capitalist leftist who participated in a number of leftwing protests. He was also a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic."

Climate Change, Unlimited Liability, and the End Of Capitalism - HUMAN EVENTS

The AFP news service ran a chilling story over the weekend about the hot new frontier in big-bucks litigation: climate change lawsuits.

“From being a marginal and even mocked issue,” writes Richard Ingham, “climate-change litigation is fast emerging as a new frontier of law where some believe hundreds of billions of dollars are at stake. Compensation for losses inflicted by man-made global warming would be jaw-dropping, a payout that would make tobacco and asbestos damages look like pocket money. Imagine: a country or an individual could get redress for a drought that destroyed farmland, for floods and storms that created an army of refugees, for rising seas that wiped a small island state off the map.”"
