John Kerry makes a revealing statement in the form of a question. May 20, 2014 7:22 p.m. ET Secretaries of State may want to stop making statements in the form of questions, à la “Jeopardy.” First Hillary Clinton declared “what difference at this point does it make?” regarding the reasons that four Americans died in Benghazi. Then on Monday John Kerry told... Read more

Sacrificing Africa for Climate Change
May 5 | Posted by mrossol | Environment, Global WarmingI commend Mr Rossiter for speaking up. ======== “Western policies seem more interested in carbon-dioxide levels than in life expectancy.” Every year environmental groups celebrate a night when institutions in developed countries (including my own university) turn off their lights as a protest against fossil fuels.

That’s the good news. Over the same period the world pumped more than 100 billion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. That is supposedly the bad news. Yet global surface temperatures have remained essentially flat. That’s the mystery: If... Read more
Your Carbonated President
June 28 | Posted by mrossol | Global Warming, ObamaI never cease to struggle to understand the logic in BHO’s mind. ========= President Obama’s climate speech on Tuesday was grandiose even for him, but its surreal nature was its particular hallmark. Some 12 million Americans still can’t find work, real wages have fallen for five years, three-fourths of Americans now live paycheck to check, and the economy continues to plod along... Read more
