Professor Calls for Death Penalty for Climate Change 'Deniers'....
It is as inevitable as the rising of the sun; the Left, when thwarted in their quest for power, suggests the use of lethal force to compel those who disagree.
There is a nauseating litany of murders done by our betters in their pursuit of the Benthamite vision of "the greatest good for the most people" -- which in their minds equates to collectivization and socialism. You have Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Margaret Sanger, Mao Tse Tung, Pol Pot. Now we can add one more name to the list: Professor Richard Parncutt, Musicologist at Graz University in Austria.

Feds look other way as wind farms kill birds -- but haul oil and gas firms to court ......
Political correctness run amok....
Fast forward to last week. Following the deaths of a dozen migratory birds in Montana, Wyoming and Nebraska several years back, a Denver-based oil company was fined $22,500. The company was also ordered to make an additional $7,500 payment to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation.
The disconnect demonstrates what critics call a blatant double standard that has to change. While the federal government aggressively pursues oil and gas companies for wildlife deaths, it often gives wind producers a pass.

More Than A Dozen Fisker Karma Hybrids Caught Fire And Exploded In New Jersey Port After Sandy......
Our source tells us they were “first submerged in a storm surge and then caught fire, exploded.” This wouldn’t be the first time the vehicles, which use a small gasoline engine to charge batteries that provide energy to two electric motors, had an issue with sudden combustion.

MACT – The End of Affordable Coal.......
Let’s say you saw the number one goal of the current US President is domestic energy independence or an all of the above energy policy. Would that include a major environmental regulation that threatened to take nearly 30KMW of electrical power generation offline in the immediate future? Would it involve specifically preventing mining and development of a major source of available domestic energy? If so, your candidate is already in office. The Hill describes the Obama Administration’s stance on coal energy below.

Up to 50 Obama-backed energy companies financially troubled .....
However, when other subsidies, outside of the 1705 loan guarantees are factored in, the number of government-backed green energy failures is much higher.
The blog Green Corruption’s “Obama green-energy failure” list contains 23 bankrupt and 27 troubled green energy companies which were backed by the federal government. This list uses data compiled by the Heritage Foundation, but also includes some things the conservative think tank doesn’t.

‘Al Gore Has Thrived as Green-Tech Investor’......
Before the global warming whack-jobs start on Hurricane Sandy.....just remember how much money $$$$$ there is to be made while touting this "horror".....
Despite the well-known failures and struggles of the renewable energy sector, former Vice President Al Gore has managed to profit handsomely from multiple “green” energy investments, according to a lengthy and surprisingly revealing Washington Post article.
And when we say he has done well, we mean he has done really, really well. Take, for instance, the fact that since getting into the business in 2000, Gore’s personal wealth has grown by approximately $98 million:

Quarter-billion-dollar stimulus grant creates just 400 jobs ......
But even when the quarterly reports are combined, a total of 408 new positions were reported under the stimulus program since 2009, amounting to more than $300,000 spent for each new job reported.

Abound Solar is currently under criminal investigation by the Weld County District Attorney's Office.......
Just one day after President Barack Obama went on television saying that politics had nothing to do with the now bankrupt Abound Solar receiving a taxpayer-backed loan guarantee from the Energy Department, emails have surfaced that appear to contradict his claim.

Audit: Green jobs stimulus program wastes cash....
Only 38 percent of those who have completed training got jobs based on it, and only 16 percent kept jobs for at least six months — the key measure of success for the program.
“Outcomes for participants were far less than originally proposed,” the auditors said.

Solyndra and Fisker Write-Offs.....
The Department of Energy (DOE) gave away its equity interest in Solyndra to allow tax benefits worth up to $341 million to pass to two of Solyndra’s largest investors, Argonaut and Madrone, according to recently released bankruptcy filings. DOE’s actions raise the total amount of taxpayer money lost by Solyndra to as high as $849 million. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., today sent a letter to Secretary of Energy Steven Chu seeking documents relating to another troubled loan recipient, Fisker Automotive.

Electric Car Batteries Going Nowhere.....
Another green-energy-related company built on government subsidies is having trouble keeping its head above water.
This time, the scandal surrounds Chemical Power, a subsidiary of LG Chem. In 2010, the Obama Administration proudly gave Chemical Power a $150 million grant to build a vehicle battery manufacturing facility in Michigan. These batteries were to be used in two plug-in electric vehicles, the Chevy Volt and the Ford Focus.

Danish wind turbine maker announces mass layoffs......
The federal Wind Production Tax Credit was enacted in 1992 get the wind industry off the ground. Congress has renewed the credit seven times and let it expire three times since it was enacted, and now lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are debating the merits of another extension as the PTC is set to expire at the end of this year.

Austrian Embassy Got Budget Increase to Buy Volts As Security Was Cut for Libyan Embassy......
Are you kidding me?! We put lives in danger to pump up the Green Agenda of this Administration?!
The Washington Times is reporting that at the same time State Department officials were cutting security for our diplomatic stations in Libya, they were increasing the budget for our embassy in Austria in order to purchase Chevrolet's electric powered Volt:

Energy Dept protects trade secrets of bankrupt solar company .......
Furthermore, the company may have mislead lenders at one point in order to keep itself afloat.
Abound Solar was given a $400 million loan guarantee by the Energy Department, and drew on about $70 million dollars of the guarantee before DOE cut them off in September 2011 — the same month the Solyndra scandal began.

Chevy Volt Battery-Maker Compact Power Lays Off Employees .....
Winners and Losers...I dare say ANOTHER LOSER.....
Just days after President Obama spoke to supporters in Los Angeles about his push for green energy, another government-sponsored, green energy-related manufacturing company announced layoffs.
The company, Compact Power, was the recipient of $150 million taxpayer dollars and millions more in tax deferments and credits. Compact Power was supposed to be building thousands of batteries for the Chevy Volt here in America. Instead, they are furloughing workers before producing a single battery, Fox News reports. Not one.

A Huge Victory for a Principled Mitt Romney .....
Mitt Romney politely cleaned Barack Obama’s clock tonight. A lethargic and at times tired looking President Obama was out-hustled, out-facted, out-energized, and out-informed by Former Governor Mitt Romney. Completely unlike Romney’s convention speech, tonight he focused on strong economic issues, developed his philosophy of limited government, and convinced me beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is in fact a pro-growth tax reformer who wants to lower the rate, and broaden the base in a revenue-neutral fashion that will actually create jobs and spur the economy.
Chris Matthews Freaks Out At Obama: "What Was He Doing?" ....
Don't think Comrade Chris was happy! I believe Mitt Romney understands he has to EARN the election...not be anointed as the "Chosen One"....
"Tonight wasn't an MSNBC debate tonight, was it?" Chris Matthews said after the first Obama-Romney presidential debate concluded on Wednesday night.
"I don't know what he was doing out there. He had his head down, he was enduring the debate rather than fighting it. Romney, on the other hand, came in with a campaign. He had a plan, he was going to dominate the time, he was going to be aggressive, he was going to push the moderator around, which he did effectively, he was going to relish the evening, enjoying it," Matthews said.
