A note to the media.
The Obamacare bill mandates people buy health insurance.
Why do you keep reporting that it will provide insurance for 30 million additional Americans?
Just in case you were wondering:
Mandate – noun
1. a command or authorization to act in a particular way on a public issue given by the electorate to its representative: The president had a clear mandate to end the war.
2. a command from a superior court or official to a lower one.
3. an authoritative order or command
Provide - verb
1. to make available; furnish: to provide employees with various benefits.
2. to supply or equip: to provide the army with new fighter planes.
3. to afford or yield.
You could at least try to get it right. You could make the case that by requiring pre-existing conditions this bill would make coverage available to more people, but the government is mandating here, not providing.
You could at least try and tell the truth.

Now they have gone too far.
The global warming zealots are trying to scare kids that global warming will take away Christmas.
No, I'm not kidding.
No, not years from now, this Friday. These people really don't have an ounce of shame. Spreading their lies to impressionable children through scare tactics.
Frankly their continued actions are so unethical I don't know how people can stand to be associated with them any more.
In another case of ridiculous left wing tactics (in case you missed it), the Rock The Vote folks are trying to use sex to sell healthcare "reform".

Nick Griffin Post.
Yesterday I posted a speech from Nick Griffin at the UN Climate Conference in Copenhagen.
He essentially called the whole global warming movement hooey. I agree with him on that issue.
Before I posted that video I had never heard of Nick Griffin. Apparently he has a racist past. He is currently a member of the European Parliament and the Chairman of the British National Party and a very controversial figure. People in the UK love or hate him.
The post quickly deteriorated away from the actual subject which was the hoax of global warming being thrust upon the planet.
It got so ugly I eventually just decided to delete it. I'll be criticized for:
A. Deleting the post
B. Not deleting it fast enough.
C. Posting it in the first place. (Even though I knew nothing of this guys past)
D. Not leaving the post up
E. Breathing (Exhaling is contributing to global warming after all)
F. All of the above.
The correct answer of course is F. No matter what I do someone complains.
Frankly I just am not in the mood to deal with the hatred and character assassination that was rampant on that post. In posting Griffin's video at the UN Conference I in no way was endorsing anything he did or said in the past.
Of course the hate left is insinuating that I am somehow a holocaust denier now... You stay classy Jay. Keep making stuff up.
Though people wanted to jump on me no one even considered that if this guy was such a bad apple why was he invited to the UN Summit?

The wisdom of Top Gear.
This is why I love this show so much. It’s funny and irreverent, yet oddly topical.
This is a very long clip (its actually part 7 of their “Polar Special”), so please allow me to give you the Cliff’s Notes version:
The Boys decided to race a dog sled to the North Pole – while they drove a Toyota.
After much tribulation…….drumroll please……….the Toyota won.
Yes, it drove to the North Pole (you listenin’, Al?)
Fast forward to the 7:20 mark and watch to the 8:20 mark for Jeremy’s words of wisdom.
IMHO, they should have just driven straight into Copenhagen and revved the engine.

Leadership By Example
All the world leaders who've been flying in private jets to Copenhagen this week could learn something from the Queen.
