Found this excellent blogger who does a weekly Moonbat Award….this one is from March 6, 2008. It goes to a liberal, activist judge who denied a 17 year old the opportunity to pre-enlist in the Marines because ’she did not agree with this war and does not like recruiters.

The first international conference designed to question the scientific consensus on climate change is being sponsored by a right-wing American think-tank which receives money from the oil industry. Read more
And the global alarmist are financed by left-wing communist elitist……, that doesn’t make them right or should I say ‘correct’.
Excerpt from WorldNetDaily Whistleblower Magazine describing a story titled ‘Hysteria’ on March 1, 2007.
Today, to cover all their bases, much of the press is changing its terminology from “global warming” to “climate change” or “climate catastrophe.” That way they’re covered either way: If the world gets colder, global warming is still at fault. Scientists and climatologists who dare to question the rigid orthodoxy of man-made catastrophic global warming are openly ridiculed and threatened with decertification, the movement for global governance, complete with global taxation, is moving into the fast lane.
Global problems, real or conjured up, require global governmental solutions. As Whistleblower explains, environmentalism is nothing less than the global elitists’ replacement ideology for communism/socialism. With communism largely discredited today ? after all, 100-150 million people died at the hands of communist “visionaries” during the last century ? elitists who desire to rule other people’s lives have gravitated to an even more powerful ideology. More powerful because it seems to trump all other considerations, as it claims the very survival of life on earth is dependent on implementing its agenda.
It’s not global warming any more…now it’s Climate Change….Good Grief!!!!!
What a bunch of Communist Elitist…and they are getting away with all their lies with the help of the Main Stream Media reporting the lies as if they are gospel and refusing to even acknowledge that there are opposing views. Scary thing is… this is a worldwide hoax and no one is safe from these socialistic, communistic, PSYCOPATHS.
EU warns of climate change threat
| Alix Kroeger BBC News, Brussels |
An EU report says climate change will have a growing impact on global security, multiplying existing threats such as shortages of food and water. It warns that climate change could cause millions of people to migrate towards Europe as other parts of the world suffer environmental degradation.
States that are “already fragile and conflict prone” could be over-burdened, the report says.
EU proposals to tackle climate change will be discussed by leaders this week.
| It may lead to… more forced migration, and even possibly radicalisation and state failure EU External Relations Commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner |
The stark warning from the report – drawn up by the EU’s foreign affairs chief Javier Solana and the European Commission – is that climate change is not just a threat in itself – it is “a threat multiplier”.It says shortages of food and water – even radicalisation and state failure – are likely to get worse if no action is taken.Africa is likely to be especially at risk, which means migration could intensify, both within Africa itself and towards Europe.EU External Relations Commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner told the BBC: “If the weakest countries cannot adapt, it may lead to, for instance, more forced migration, and even possibly radicalisation and state failure, causing internal and external security risks.”
Polar icecaps
The report also highlights the Arctic as a possible area of future conflict. With the melting of the polar icecaps, new waterways and trade routes are opening up.
The region is rich in untapped oil and gas resources, and last year Russia staked its claim by planting a flag on the seabed beneath the North Pole.
There is, it says, “an increasing need to address the growing debate over territorial claims and access to new trade routes”.
But the report does not offer much in the way of specific solutions. It recommends more dialogue, international co-operation and further research.
The EU prides itself on being a world leader on climate change, but turning talk into action is not easy.
On the one hand, the EU scheme for carbon emissions trading is being expanded to take in aviation for the first time.
But plans to limit car emissions and switch to renewable energy are being hampered by objections from industries and some member states, which say they are being unfairly penalised.

EU agrees climate plan deadline
EU leaders have agreed to finish talks by the end of the year on an ambitious plan to fight climate change. After a two-day summit in Brussels, leaders for the 27 nations said they hoped new legislation would be enacted in early 2009.
The bloc aims to implement a 20% cut in greenhouse gases by 2020, compared with 1990 levels.

Models ‘key to climate forecasts’

The state of the Earth’s atmosphere is influenced by many factors

The only way to predict the day-to-day weather and changes to the climate over longer timescales is to use computer models.
These models solve complex mathematical equations that are based on well established physical laws that define the behaviour of the weather and climate.
However, it is not possible to represent all the detail in the real world in a computer model, so approximations have to be made. The models are tried and tested in a number of ways:

The pilot of an F-16C fighter jet that crashed in a rugged area of western Arizona was killed when his plane went down, Air Force officials confirmed Saturday.
The student pilot was practicing air-to-air combat with another F-16 from Luke Air Force Base about noon Friday when his plane crashed, base spokeswoman Mary Jo May said.
Aircraft from the Air Force, Marines, Civil Air Patrol and Arizona Department of Public Safety spent hours trying to find the wreckage, which was spotted late Friday in a remote area about 80 miles northwest of Phoenix.
Rescuers could only reach the site by helicopter and arrived at daybreak Saturday, May said. They found the pilot’s parachute and some of his gear about 150 feet from an impact crater. It took several hours for the Air Force to confirm that he had died in the crash.
The pilot, whose identity hasn’t been released pending notification of relatives, was part of the 62nd Fighter Squadron, one of eight squadrons at the base. The base is in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale and is the world’s largest F-16 training base with about 185 F-16s.
There have been 17 other crashes of Luke-based F-16s since 1998, and only one of those resulted in a fatality, May said. That crash happened in May 2004, when a pilot with the Singapore air force died after his jet went down during a training mission at an Air Force bombing range in southwest Arizona.
The most recent crashes came in 2006. A pilot ejected safely from an F-16 in April 2006 after the lone engine on the jet exploded just after takeoff from the base. The aircraft came down in a cornfield.
Nearly nine months later, a two-seat F-16 crashed during a training mission at the same range where the Singapore pilot died. The pilot and instructor bailed out safely.
