With the US House of Representatives already stamping their approval on a massive "Global Warming" bill and the Senate getting ready to address the same, I thought I had better do a blog on said "Global Warming". I got to looking around and found I had addressed it quite adequately (IMHO) earlier - see:

Then go here. This is a page from the official site of the US Senate's Environmental subcommittee. Enlightening to say the least.

Also, there is a site online that addresses a petition asking the US Government to recognize that "global warming" is NOT a theory that is held in consensus by scientists. 31,478 American scientists have signed this petition,including 9,029 with PhDs. You can visit this site here:

Man-made global warming is B.S. It is a pure fabrication by wackos and thieves that want to control your wallet, and your life to the nth degree. Contact your elected officials and tell them to STOP putting our way of life on the line for this junk "science".
Here is another thing that is bothering me - I am tired of people whining about gas prices. Gas was never free!! When people whine about "$40 to fill my tank" they forget that even at $2 a gallon it was $25 or so to fill it!! Here are some numbers: The average car in the U.S. is driven about 12,000 miles a year. If you get 20 MPG (hey if you are driving a Hummer, getting 10, I don't want to hear it!) That is 600 gallons of gas a year. Most people would be estatic if gas was at $2 a gallon again -SO, that is about $600 a year (for the extra $1 a gallon) or $11.54 a week. Now I know there are a LOT of folks that were struggling to pay the $2, but the average person I know was not. Here is another way to look at it. How many Starbuck's coffees or lattes have you had lately at $$37.33 a gallon? ($3.50 for a 12 oz one) How about a beer on an airplane at $53.33 a gallon? ($5 per) Then there is bottled water at $10.66 a gallon. ($1 a 12oz bottle -and it can be MUCH higher...
