by Rick aka Mr. Brutally Honest
I understand that many believe hurricanes, snowstorms, beach erosion and
polar bear killing are all the byproducts of 'climate change' or global
warming... but asteroids?
Well perhaps, according to CNN annchor Deb Feyerick on Saturday afternoon:
Moments earlier, before an ad break, she segued from the Northeast

Healthcare Editor
The healthcare systems in the United States, Canada, and Great Britain
provide interesting comparisons to one another, especially since the U.S.
system is considered private and Canada and Great Britain each have national
health systems that supply universal coverage. National health systems are
theoretically designed to provide accessible, affordable care for all
segments of the population, but cri... 阅读全帖 |

A group of climate change scientists were rescued by helicopter Jan. 2,
after being stranded in the ice since Christmas morning. But the majority of
the broadcast networks’ reports about the ice-locked climate researchers
never mentioned climate change.
The Russian ship, Akademic Shokalskiy, was stranded in the ice while on a

By Maxim Lott
Published December 30, 2010
FoxNews.com
A new year is around the corner, and some climate scientists and
environmental activists say that means we're one step closer to a climate
Armageddon. But are we really?
Predicting the weather -- especially a decade or more in advance -- is
unbelievably challenging. What's the track record of those most worried
about global warming? Decades ago, what did prominent scientists think the
environment would be... 阅读全帖 |

The new Maine Governor, Paul LePage is making New Jersey 's Chris Christie

every time he opens his mouth, his popularity goes up.
He brought down the house at his inauguration when he shook his fist toward
the media box and said, "You're on notice! I've inherited a financially

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's decision to rescind approval of three
charter schools has attracted the ire of much of the state and multiple
lawsuits from parents standing up for their children's education. It has
also attracted the wrath of the far left, who are suing de Blasio for not
shutting down more charter schools.

It’s amusing to watch the strange new respect Democrats are mustering for
Eric Cantor. Xavier Becerra was on Morning Joe lamenting how Eric was just
the sort of responsible Republican who wanted to get things done. I think
Hugh Hewitt is right that Dems like Becerra don’t want to fix immigration
so much as have the issue. But I do think the White House really does want a
big immigration bill as part of their effort to pad his legacy. That’s why
they are in... 阅读全帖 |

casting a mail-in ballot for Hillary Clinton and then dying a few days later
has launched a blizzard of internet love. He posted on the not-so-secret-

supporters showered him with sympathy and support.
