Hey, man, do you know where can I buy some of that "global warming"?

"NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO, captured this solar image on March 16, 2015, which clearly shows two dark patches, known as coronal holes. The larger coronal hole of the two, near the southern pole, covers an estimated 6- to 8-percent of the total solar surface. While that may not sound significant, it is one of the largest polar holes scientists have observed in decades. The smaller coronal hole, towards the opposite pole, is long and narrow. It covers about 3.8 billion square miles on the sun - only about 0.16-percent of the solar surface. Coronal holes are lower density and temperature regions of the sun’s outer atmosphere, known as the corona. Coronal holes can be a source of fast solar wind of solar particles that envelop the Earth."

PO'd American said...: Seems to be about the same ratio of coronal a-holes (politians) that we have on earth. Wonder if there's some correlation to the hot wind phenomena?; March 18, 2015 at 6:29 AM

An active star is hotter than an in-active star. "Active" is defined and characterized by sun spots. Sun spots are the cause of those huge "coronal mass ejections" we hear about that screw up radio transmissions and power grids on earth. The more sun spots, the 'hotter' the star. Not by much, but enough to for us to feel it.

Our star, the sun, has entered a quiet period that could last, God forbid, for 50 to 75 years. Sun spots have been low in number for years now. If solar activity doesn't pick up soon, it could get colder around here. I'm talkin' "ice age" colder.

Several thousand low temperature records were broken in the USA this year. Most of you can agree that this year's winter has been longer and colder.

What does all this mean? It means that contrary to the liberal mantra, there ain't no such thing as "anthropogenic (human caused) global warming". In spite of 'all that' extra carbon dioxide in the air, the sun still rules temperature on this planet, not the word of democrats.

All the claims of the 'global warming-climate change' crowd have been proven to be bunk. So if any of you happen to spot AlGore on the side of the road changing a flat tire, just ease over to the right a little bit and see if you can clip his ass.

Oh, and don't pack your heavy coat away too quickly. If you think 2014-15 was cold and sun-spot activity doesn't pick up, wait until next year. You'll definitely agree that something is amiss and it ain't got anything to do with humans on this planet.; March 18, 2015 at 6:59 AM

Seems we ought to have a National Space Agency to research crazy ideas like that.; March 18, 2015 at 8:14 AM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
