The Global Warming Tipping Point

Published by Rod D. Martin March 22nd, 2008 filed under Environment, Rod D. Martin, TheVanguard.Org

Comment

We keep hearing about a tipping point in the global warming mess, a point of no return at which the Earth will simply be on fire. But last week, the leftists using global warming propaganda to push their socialist agenda hit a tipping point of their own, when one of Australia’s top climate scientists described in great detail — to a national radio audience — not only how the Earth stopped warming ten years ago, but the degree of consensus among scientists on this point (and the unwillingness of media to report it).

This is not just because the Dems and their media allies have been glowing (for years) about the supposed “bipartisanship” of Democrats and Independents voting in our primaries, for Bob Dole, John McCain, Rudy (continue reading post »)

So You Thought She Was Out, Did You?

Published by Rod D. Martin March 5th, 2008 filed under Hillary Clinton, MoveOn, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Democrats, Rod D. Martin, Election 2008, TheVanguard.Org

Comments

As I’ve been telling anyone who would listen for weeks now, Hillary Clinton isn’t going anywhere.

And why would she? Everyone keeps saying it’s mathematically impossible for her to win the nomination on elected delegates, but the same is very much true for Obama (and was before Ohio and Texas).

WEATHER CHANNEL Founder Advocates Suing Al Gore to Expose ‘Warming’ Fraud

Published by Rod D. Martin March 4th, 2008 filed under Al Gore, Environment, Media, Rod D. Martin, TheVanguard.Org

Comments

…which might be excessive, but given last week’s revelation that 2007’s global temperature drops completely wiped out all the global warming of the entire past century, one does have to wonder: will Gore have to give back his Oscar?
