Former ABC weatherman and Weather Channel founder continue's to risk his career to expose the truth...
Thank goodness there are a few brave souls willing to talk about the weakness in the scientific case for global warming. Of course, they now call it "Climate Change" to allow tying any weather change to humans and ultimate destruction.
John Cloeman's fact based, rational presentation of the history of the Global Warming panic phenomenon is compelling. His frankness and audacity are refreshing. I wonder how long John Coleman can keep it up before he is forced to protect his career and capitulate. You must read it.

THE source of our problems...
In pondering the economic situation and political manipulations going on around it, I was reminded of something Carl Jung once said,"The source of all neurosis is the avoidance of legitimate pain."
Dr. Gerald Mann had his own explanation of this in America,
"I think we are disillusioned because we have lived for many years with an illusion. Disillusionment, as I often say, is always the child of illusionment. We had this illusion that we could have the Great Society and the Great Frontier and that we could use the government programs to solve everything.
All of our saviors have let us down. Education and money hasn't really brought us the sort of inward peace that we want, so I think there is a massive disillusionment in the country because we based it on an illusion. We are the first generation in history that has expected life to be happy. We are the first generation that expects to have the ultimate marriage, the ultimate job, the ultimate religion, no problems, and we are setting ourselves up for great angst when we do that."
Absolutely brilliant analysis in my never so humble opinion. It's not a slam of education or success, just the realization that life is much deeper and bigger, and we put our selves at great risk when we fail to realize that.

Craving a Little Positive Economic News
UPDATE 1-US mortgage applications post largest gain ever | Reuters
All is not bad. I always complain about the negative slant on the news, so I have to give Reuters kudos for publishing this report.
It's important to understand things are never as bad or as good as reported. This provides a little more positivity on top of the good news on Black Friday.

Depression? Recession? Is it hopeless?
Amity Shlaes: Home
In a prior blog post, I highlight Amity Schlaes and her speech at the Foundation for Economic Education. In light of today's economic environment, I pickup up and re-read her book, "The Forgotten Man". It pays to be able to put current conditions in historical perspective, and that book is one of THE best resources for perspective on the Great Depression. Check out her site AND my old post - good meaty stuff for the times.

More Ridiculous Cultural Destruction
Ho, ho, nope! FGCU to limit holiday decor | news-press.com | The News-Press
No Christmas decorations in any common grounds allowed on this Florida College campus!
Call President William Bradshaw and let him know what a ridiculous decision he has made. May seem remote and unimportant, but we must begin fighting at every occurrence of the cultural homicide taking place in our colleges.
I called this morning and they seemed a little taken aback. We need to shut down their phone system. We've got very small portions of our population hijacking our country because they are VERY noisy. We need to do the same in defense. It's no longer a question of voting or not, or being informed or not. It's a question of remaining vigilant and active all the time.
Of course you always want to take the high road: be courteous, positive and professional, but let 'em know how you feel.
Call 800 - 590-FGCU (3428), ask for the Presidents Office and let your voice be heard!

Time to get back to work,,,
I've got lots of opinions and thoughts about America and the election last night, but I've got work to do. I'll get back to it later today.
In the mean time - God Bless America and it's new President.

President Obama - History is made...
President Elect Obama deserves a chance to prove himself and do right by America. He has a terribly difficult job ahead. I will support him when appropriate and criticize when necessary.
I am glad that instead of the juvenile behavior of the Clinton Administration during the transition to Bush's first term, we will have an orderly and cooperative transfer of power. Somehow I don't see the Bush administration removing all the O's on the computer keyboards in the White House.
That said I am prepared for battle. A civil battle. A non-violent battle certainly. But a real battle none-the-less. We must not let our guard down. Our disappointment must not weaken our resolve. Obamas policies as presented during his campaign ARE anti-American. We cannot sit by and allow those to be implemented without a fight.
Lets' not loose focus. Our families, our businesses and our communities come first. But if we do not gird ourselves against the entitlement mentality and the Statist power grabs we become even more divorced from the qualities that make America and Americans great and less likely ever to find our way back.
I do feel sorry for our military, our coal and other energy industries. I feel sorry for those making a living on the Internet and Conservative radio and TV. I feel sorry for those who ask questions and don't tow the "PC" line, they will be targets as Joe the Plumber has become. I feel sorry for those in the entertainment industry that backed McCain - I think the backlash is going to be tremendous.
I know this though. I will fight with every effort I can muster to be even more successful and happy than before. I will not use this disappointment as a reason to fold up. I will ask questions. I will be "un-PC". I will stand up for my rights and express my opinions. I will do all this because this is America, and I am an American, and God gave me the right to do so!

Mid-election night thoughts...
At about 7:30PM Pacific time most of the pundits and networks are pretty confidently predicting that Obama will be the next President. In fact they are doing a post mortem on the McCain campaign right now on Fox. I like Fox, but would love to have them eat crow later tonight!
I still am not convinced that it is over, but must admit thanks to Michael Barone's great explanation of exit polling and election returns algorithms, that it doesn't look good.
I have learned that experts are notoriously inaccurate when it come to predicting the future, so we will see. I am not giving up yet.
I can't help but begin to think about a post-election America with Obama as President, and what we will be called upon to do. You think this campaign was grueling? We will need to be prepared to for the fight of our lives against a stacked deck with the fairness doctrine, taxes, hyper-regulation, Military disarmament and international capitulation being the Democrats main ammunition. You think the bail out was out of control? You ain't seen nuthin' yet!
Are you prepared for battle? I am. We'll need to be armed well with facts, commitment, strength and most importantly persuasiveness. We live in the MTV era. Rock star politicians are a requirement now whether you are a Republican or Democrat. To be an effective leader you need knowledge, experience and integrity. To get elected you need charm. Clinton hinted at how important it was to become, but Obama takes it to another level. We have one rock star candidate in Sarah Palin, but need a few more. A hip, 40 year old Ronaldus Magnus would fit the bill.
As is always the case with me, the more the chips are down, the more energized I become. Whether McCain loses tonight or not, I am ready to rock and roll. It's going to take a lot more than a Socialist hangover from the '60's to put a damper on my American dream!
The liberals love to talk about non-partisanship, tolerance and diversity, but be prepared for a very ugly "politically correct" campaign to try to stomp out the last flickering flames of Conservative expression. The cultural icons will do everything within their power to continue to move the political "center" to the left, and marginalize or destroy those who don't go along for the ride. Look at what they tried to do to Joe the Plumber, a man with the audacity to ask a question of Obama the American Press could not or would not.
If you want to know what we are in for, study Saul Alinsky. You will be looking at the owners manual for American politics and culture for at least the next 4 years, if not the next 20.
But... it ain't over until it's over, so let's hope we can do it with an ally in the White House.

First exit polls out in minutes....
Don't fall for the exit polls about to come out in about 4 minutes. They are historically proven horribly inaccurate. I think they may be even more inaccurate this election with all the manipulation going on.
I must admit I will enjoy it if they show McCain ahead, but wouldn't bank on it. If they show Obama ahead by less than 10 points, I will feel even better. Both of the prior 2 Presidential elections were predicted to be double digit Gore and Kerry victories by the exit polls.
Just vote, behave and whatever the outcome, vow to be more politically informed, active, happy and prosperous in 2009 than ever before. Vote freedom first!
