Washington DC – The bad news for global warming alarmists just keeps rolling in. Below is a very small sampling of very inconvenient developments for Gore, the United Nations, and the mainstream media. Peer-reviewed studies, analyses, and prominent scientists continue to speak out to refute climate fears. The majority of data presented below is from just the past few weeks.  Also see: U.S. Senate Minority Report: “Over 400 Prominent Scientists (and rapidly growing) Disputed Man-Made Global Warming Claims in 2007”  & ‘Consensus’ On Man-Made Global Warming Collapses in 2008   – July 18, 2008 & An August 2007 report detailed how proponents of man-made global warming fears enjoy a monumental funding advantage over skeptical scientists.

Bush The Cooler: ‘Planet has cooled since Bush took office’ – November 12, 2008
Excerpt: On this symbolic date, it seems worthwhile to reflect that the planet has not only cooled since George W. Bush took office – pause and let the significance of that one sink in – but began to chill significantly at almost precisely the moment that we signed the Kyoto Protocol, exactly ten years ago today.

Now may we start drilling for more oil and gas and use the coal we have to build back up this great Nation of ours. May we stop sending money for oil to people that don’t like us? DRILL NOW BABY DRILL NOW!!!

Just when it is all coming apart, here’s another push.These clueless bureaucrats plan to revamp the entire U.S. economy based on the notion that CO2 is the cause of global warming, and that they can do something about it by bankrupting coal-fired power plants and substituting clean alternative energy. There is no evidence that this is other than fantasy.

Store Sales Falter, Franchisers Consolidate Vendors and Deliveries, Trim Portions and Play Up Cheaper Menu Items

“These restaurant operators are really operating under a perfect storm, dealing with record [high] commodity prices, higher labor costs with the minimum wage increasing and falling consumer demand,” says Robert Marzo, senior analyst of food service for F&D Reports, a retail consulting firm in Great Neck, N.Y. “Many of [them] can no longer offer the same quality ingredients that they have in years past, so they’re downgrading in any way that they can.”

They’re getting “creative with their recipes, using cheaper ingredients and offering smaller portions in an effort to stay afloat,” he adds.

So democrats don’t try a say that all this is cause by the Republicans, as it was the democrats who raise fed min wages! At the time I was posting on another discussion board and said that when the democrats took control of congress and raised the min wages that prices would go up and people would lose jobs and they have. Now with these businesses hurting Obama wants to raise their taxes and require them to provide healthcare for their workers along with still raisng fed min wages again…..if he does then the employees just as well sleep in and forget about having a job and head on down to the wel-fare office!
