This is just for anyone who ever thought global warming was ever about the climate. There is this article in the lancet (The same medical journal that brought you Iraq War casualties inflated by a factor of 10) stating that obese people contribute to global warming.

Warning To Conservatives

Tagged:

Hillary and Obama are continuing to duke it out for the Democrat nomination which has created an advantage for John McCain going into the final Primary months and especially with the real probability that Hillary, though losing, will remain in the race until the Convention and force a fight that will leave the Democrats further wounded going into the final push for November.

The Conservative Movement -- Bold Colors, Or Pale Pastels?

IS THE CONSERVATIVE MOVEMENT DEAD?

By David Hinz

I heard a political pundit on one of the News Channels say Ronald Reagan is dead, and so is the Conservative Movement. I have heard much the same sentiment in recent months, such opinions expressed by experts in the Mainstream Media. I have heard the same from amateurs on various blogs, as well.

In his acceptance speech at the 1984 Republican National Convention, President Ronald Reagan said;

Four years ago we raised a banner of bold colors—no pale pastels. We proclaimed a dream of an America that would be "a shining city on a hill."

We promised that we'd reduce the growth of the Federal Government, and we have. We said we intended to reduce interest rates and inflation, and we have. We said we would reduce taxes to provide incentives for individuals and business to get our economy moving again, and we have. We said there must be jobs with a future for our people, not government make-work programs, and, in the last 19 months, as I've said, 6 1/2 million new jobs in the private sector have been created. We said we would once again be respected throughout the world, and we are. We said we would restore our ability to protect our freedom on land, sea, and in the air, and we have.

I would postulate that the Conservative Movement is still very much alive, but it has simply become a banner of pale pastels. It takes a leader with a vision for the future to achieve those bold colors.

Mecklenburg Declaration II needed against sinful Democrat Tar Heel taxers

[Charlotte, N.C., located less that ten miles from the South Carolina birthplace of former President Andrew Jackson, is the county seat of Mecklenburg County (the birthplace of President James K. Polk) and DeVine aka gamecock's home for the past three years.]

A year before Thomas Jefferson wrote the U.S. Declaration of Independence, a group of Mecklenburg's forefathers broke with England. May 20 marks the 233rd anniversary of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence.

Both 18th Century Declarations were precipitated by the unprovoked British attack on fellow colonists at Concord and Lexington, which followed a Tea Party in Boston Harbor due to taxation without representation.
