INTRODUCTION:
Over 400 prominent scientists from more than two dozen countries recently voiced significant objections to major aspects of the so-called "consensus" on man-made global warming. These scientists, many of whom are current and former participants in the UN IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), criticized the climate claims made by the UN IPCC and former Vice President Al Gore.
The new report issued by the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee’s office of the GOP Ranking Member details the views of the scientists, the overwhelming majority of whom spoke out in 2007.
Even some in the establishment media now appear to be taking notice of the growing number of skeptical scientists. In October, the Washington Post Staff Writer Juliet Eilperin conceded the obvious, writing that climate skeptics "appear to be expanding rather than shrinking." Many scientists from around the world have dubbed 2007 as the year man-made global warming fears “bite the dust.” (LINK) In addition, many scientists who are also progressive environmentalists believe climate fear promotion has "co-opted" the green movement. (LINK)
This blockbuster Senate report lists the scientists by name, country of residence, and academic/institutional affiliation. It also features their own words, biographies, and weblinks to their peer reviewed studies and original source materials as gathered from public statements, various news outlets, and websites in 2007. This new “consensus busters” report is poised to redefine the debate. ......

Dear Mr. Secretary-General,
Re: UN climate conference taking the World in entirely the wrong direction
It is not possible to stop climate change, a natural phenomenon that has affected humanity through the ages. Geological, archaeological, oral and written histories all attest to the dramatic challenges posed to past societies from unanticipated changes in temperature, precipitation, winds and other climatic variables. We therefore need to equip nations to become resilient to the full range of these natural phenomena by promoting economic growth and wealth generation.
The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has issued increasingly alarming conclusions about the climatic influences of human-produced carbon dioxide (CO2), a non-polluting gas that is essential to plant photosynthesis. While we understand the evidence that has led them to view CO2 emissions as harmful, the IPCC's conclusions are quite inadequate as justification for implementing policies that will markedly diminish future prosperity. In particular, it is not established that it is possible to significantly alter global climate through cuts in human greenhouse gas emissions. On top of which, because attempts to cut emissions will slow development, the current UN approach of CO2 reduction is likely to increase human suffering from future climate change rather than to decrease it.
The IPCC Summaries for Policy Makers are the most widely read IPCC reports amongst politicians and non-scientists and are the basis for most climate change policy formulation. Yet these Summaries are prepared by a relatively small core writing team with the final drafts approved line-by-line
by government representatives. The great majority of IPCC contributors and reviewers, and the tens of thousands of other scientists who are qualified to comment on these matters, are not involved in the preparation of these documents. The summaries therefore cannot properly be represented as a consensus view among experts.
Contrary to the impression left by the IPCC Summary reports:
z Recent observations of phenomena such as glacial retreats, sea-level rise and the migration of temperature-sensitive species are not evidence for abnormal climate change, for none of these changes has been shown to lie outside the bounds of known natural variability.
z The average rate of warming of 0.1 to 0. 2 degrees Celsius per decade recorded by satellites during the late 20th century falls within known natural rates of warming and cooling over the last 10,000 years.
z Leading scientists, including some senior IPCC representatives, acknowledge that today's computer models cannot predict climate. Consistent with this, and despite computer projections of temperature rises, there has been no net global warming since 1998. That the current temperature plateau follows a late 20th-century period of warming is consistent with the continuation today of natural multi-decadal or millennial climate cycling.
In stark contrast to the often repeated assertion that the science of climate change is "settled," significant new peer-reviewed research has cast even more doubt on the hypothesis of dangerous human-caused global warming. But because IPCC working groups were generally instructed (see http://ipcc-wg1.ucar.edu/wg1/docs/wg1_timetable_2006-08-14.pdf) to consider work published only through May, 2005, these important findings are not included in their reports; i.e., the IPCC assessment reports are already materially outdated.
The UN climate conference in Bali has been planned to take the world along a path of severe CO2 restrictions, ignoring the lessons apparent from the failure of the Kyoto Protocol, the chaotic nature of the European CO2 trading market, and the ineffectiveness of other costly initiatives to curb greenhouse gas emissions. Balanced cost/benefit analyses provide no support for the introduction of global measures to cap and reduce energy consumption for the purpose of restricting CO2 emissions. Furthermore, it is irrational to apply the "precautionary principle" because many scientists recognize that both climatic coolings and warmings are realistic possibilities over the medium-term future.
The current UN focus on "fighting climate change," as illustrated in the Nov. 27 UN Development Programme's Human Development Report, is distracting governments from adapting to the threat of inevitable natural climate changes, whatever forms they may take. National and international planning for such changes is needed, with a focus on helping our most vulnerable citizens adapt to conditions that lie ahead. Attempts to prevent global climate change from occurring are ultimately futile, and constitute a tragic misallocation of resources that would be better spent on humanity's real and pressing problems.
Yours faithfully,
I guess that shows that the so-called scientific consensus on man-made climate change is total bollocks too.Want to know a secret? There were two moments I especially enjoyed at the CNN/YouTube debate -- despite my frustration at some of the questions, and the maldistribution of time.
First, I was pleased at John McCain's attack, which he clearly had planned. Not because that sort of stream-of-consciousness nonsense about Hitler and WWII -- when the neocons openly want what they call WW IV! Are we to forget that the first war crime charged at Nuremberg was waging aggressive war?
I mean this: mainstream politicians NEVER attack an opponent they think is far behind. The McCain campaign, we've heard, is worried sick about New Hampshire, and they thought a slam at me would help. Ha! Of course, it only strengthened our forces.
Then, after the debate, Rudy Giuliani walked up to me and said, "Oooh, you sure have a LOT of supporters." It’s only the beginning, I told him.
Indeed, he could have told that by the crowd outside after the debate. Mitt Romney had a few people, but no one else did. We, on the other hand, had about 500 enthusiastic revolutionaries, plus a boat, a trolley, and two planes towing lighted signs. As I looked out at the crowd, I thought: the establishment has no idea of what they are facing. We have an army of freedom, prosperity, and peace. As the LA Times political blog noted the other day, the British also thought they had no problem with the Americans--until Yorktown.
But we have an astoundingly short time before the first contests. The Iowa caucuses are on January 3, the New Hampshire primary is on January 8, and Nevada and South Carolina are both on January 19. We have only 30 days to stake our claim to the nomination, and to the new America that restores the ideals of the founders, and leads the world through free enterprise, a sound dollar, the rule of law, and peaceful example. Not through inflation and bombs.
Help me surprise the neocons and all the establishment with our success. Help me build the foundation for the America we all want. Send your most generous contribution: https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate. The military-industrial complex, the biased media, the big banks, the Fed, the waterboarders, and the IRS don’t like what we’re doing. But every good American is applauding us, and daring to hope for a better future.
Please, help me give it to them, to us, to all Americans to come. Keep this revolution growing and winning: https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate.

$10,000,000 in two months."During the Q & A session, several journalists asked a version of the question, why is there a UFO coverup, or what do the militaries or aviation associations of various governments around the world, represented in the room and otherwise, fear concerning the public being told there have been unexplained vehicles flying over the airspace of many countries? Whether from France, England, or Peru, the response was the same- few high ranking government officials are willing to publicly admit there are civilizations, and thus craft, over whom we are powerless. Officials specualted about the fear such powerlessness would engender, and said, “The (U.S.) government doesn’t want to scare people…”. One reporter disagreed, citing color alerts and terror warnings, stating, “…They want to scare us about everything else…”I found this quote very revealing, as to why the Government would play down something that could potentially be really terrifying, but play up the fear of terrorism, global warming, etc etc.? I think it is because the Government and media puppets of the NWO elite that run things have control over the terrorism threat as THEY manufacture and control it. They have control over what they report about Global Warming, as they control that disinfo psyop too. They have NO CONTROL over the Alien presence that observes us at will.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, aided by an extraordinary outpouring of Internet support Monday, hauled in more than $4.2 million in nearly 24 hours.
Paul, the Texas congressman with a libertarian tilt and an out-of-Iraq pitch, entered heady fundraising territory with a surge of Web-based giving tied to the commemoration of Guy Fawkes Day.
Fawkes was a British mercenary who failed in his attempt to kill King James I on Nov. 5, 1605. He also was the model for the protagonist in the movie "V for Vendetta." Paul backers motivated donors on the Internet with mashed-up clips of the film on the online video site YouTube as well as the Guy Fawkes Day refrain: "Remember, remember the 5th of November."
More ...Thanks and Kudos to Karl Schwarz for this easy guide to Get Ron Paul into the white House, despite of vote fraud and the East Coast Establishment's desire to have a Bush/Clinton dynasty.
===============================
Here is the easy way to get Ron Paul through the Republican Primaries, through the November 2008 elections and into the White House.
A. Get yourself registered to vote in the Republican primary in your state of residence and do it right now. Several states are trying to put in cut off dates as early as October 12, 2007 to block such acts by you. New Hampshire and New York are two such states, so get in gear and do it now.
B. Take the primary day off, the entire day. As an American you have a duty to yourself, your family and your nation, so get on the front line and stay there all day. What front line you ask? The voting precinct where you are legal to vote. That battle line. Take the entire day off on the general election day too. Your nation needs you on the real front line.
C. Well before the Primary Election Day take the following to a Notary Public, two copies of the following. Have both copies signed in the presence of a Notary Public, and have both of them dated, signed and the Notary Public seal affixed to both copies. The closer to the Primary Election Day that is dated the better.
D. Use this text: Below that put a signature line for your signature and your full name under the signature line. Do not sign it until you go to a Notary Public and sign it in the presence of that person. Down the page center this “
Start of an 8.5x11 piece of paper:

Do two such pieces of paper for the Republican Primary in your home state and do the exact same thing [two notarized pieces of paper as to how you really voted] on the day of the General Election for President.
DO NOT press any button on any electronic voting machine regarding a vote for President of the United States. That is how and where they are screwing you and all of America in picking the next puppet to put into the White House. Vote for you local issues, US representative, Senator, governor, school board, but DO NOT push a button on that machine for any presidential candidate. Also, if they are using paper ballots that are then scanned by a machine, put no mark for President. Your “MARK” for president is a notarized 8.5 x 11 piece of paper.
Leave one on the desk in the voting precinct and stand outside with the other until they certify the vote in your precinct. In fact, advise them in the precinct that all of you are going to be right outside with the paper receipt of how you really voted for President.
Now, the reason you need to stay there all day and you need to have two copies is simple if you think about it.
Let’s say hypothetically there are 1,500 voters who vote in your precinct and when they certify the vote and declare that Rudy Giuliani or John McCain won that precinct say 62% to 38% but 70% of the voters are standing right there with Notarized documents as to how they really voted, the RNC will be caught red handed in election fraud and that is a felony in virtually every state in the United States.
If enough Americans get off their butts in the General Election, both RNC and DNC will be caught red handed trying to steal the White House and steal your future too.
I wonder if that 71% of eligible voters that sit on their butts during elections can get off their butts if there is a chance to take back America from this criminal cabal that has hijacked America?
The media will be dumbfounded. How can Wolf Blitzer build up the drama on his election night show if Americans in the tens of millions have a written trail [evidence] of how the vote really went?
Consider the entertainment value for yourself on this one and imagine them try to spin their way out of their deceit. The entire world will see them for what they are and so will all of America.
The Exit Poll Pundits will not be able to lie about the true exit poll numbers if overwhelming numbers for Ron Paul are standing right there with paper receipts outside and left exact copies of that notarized document inside as the real vote.
They cannot force America to vote on rigged machines, so stop being an unthinking American, or a Sheeple that does whatever they tell you to do, and take action to take back America.
The RNC and DNC are working overtime right now to steal the elections again. For the love of your nation, do not let them do it again.
We do not need guns and bullets to force these thugs from power.
All that is needed are 4 notarized pieces of paper as to what the true vote is, take two days off to guard your own future, and stand on the front line all day.
We take America back, these thugs are going down and they know it.
All we need is a Revolution and an honest man, and in this instance the REVOLUTION IS YOUR ACTION.
Best regards,
Karl
The United States has been critical of a deal International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Mohamed ElBaradei has made with Iran to answer long-standing questions about its nuclear activities.
Rice, who has previously accused ElBaradei of "muddying the message" to Iran, voiced strong irritation with the IAEA chief.
Who was correct over the details of Iraq's nuclear program? Ms Rice or the IAEA?
Who are you going to believe now?
The most direct shipping route from Europe to Asia is fully clear of ice for the first time since records began, the European Space Agency (Esa) says. The findings, based on satellite images, raised concerns about the speed of global warming.
Recent years have seen a marked shrinkage in its ice cover, but this year it was extreme, Esa says.
It says this made the passage "fully navigable" for the first time since monitoring began in 1978.
1978!!! You mean we started monitoring the ice at the END of a cooling period? I'll bet, although they were not monitoring this then, that in the 1930's that this passage WAS navigable then too... In fact it may have been navigable almost permanently back in the medieval warm period. In fact when Greenland was Green I am sure that this route would have been open. But according to the mainstream education, America had not been discovered and the earth was thought to be flat back then so nobody would have dared venture out there in there little boats.
To the American people, and to peace loving individuals everywhere:
Massive evidence has come to our attention which shows that the backers, controllers, and allies of Vice President Dick Cheney are determined to orchestrate and manufacture a new 9/11 terror incident, and/or a new Gulf of Tonkin war provocation over the coming weeks and months. Such events would be used by the Bush administration as a pretext for launching an aggressive war against Iran, quite possibly with nuclear weapons, and for imposing a regime of martial law here in the United States. We call on the House of Representatives to proceed immediately to the impeachment of Cheney, as an urgent measure for avoiding a wider and more catastrophic war. Once impeachment has begun, it will be easier for loyal and patriotic military officers to refuse illegal orders coming from the Cheney faction. We solemnly warn the people of the world that any terrorist attack with weapons of mass destruction taking place inside the United States or elsewhere in the immediate future must be considered the prima facie responsibility of the Cheney faction. We urge responsible political leaders everywhere to begin at once to inoculate the public opinion of their countries against such a threatened false flag terror operation.

The warning comes on the heels of a spate of recent news stories and reports indicating that "chatter" about a terror event is at an all time high.
Further evidence that some form of event is imminent has emerged with strange stock market activity occurring just as did in the weeks and days preceding 9/11.
A mystery trader risks losing around $1 billion dollars after placing 245,000 put options on the Dow Jones Eurostoxx 50 index, leading many analysts to speculate that a stock market crash preceded by a new 9/11 style catastrophe could take place within the next month.
The Kennebunkport group have demanded the immediate impeachment of Dick Cheney in order to prevent any such activities coming to fruition.

Senator Russ Feingold (D-WI), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, is calling on Congress to censure President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and other administration officials for "misconduct relating to the war in Iraq and for their repeated assaults on the rule of law." "Censure is about holding the administration accountable,” Feingold said in a press release sent to RAW STORY. "Well excuse me Senator Feingold, but you are offering way too little way way too late. To use Bush's language, you are either with us, or you are with the neo-con warmongers pushing for more wars and torture.

The past week has borne witness to that vanishingly rare event: a bout of media self-examination. We’ve seen major news outlets like the BBC and Channel Four step back and reflect on the quality and accuracy of their output, even going so far as to publicly apologise for mistakes that were made. Well, sort of....... more ...Actually, I don't think that the mainstream media have gone anywhere near far enough. The article above is very very good, However, until the mainstream media admits to being the willing accomplices and accessories to war-crimes, these media platitudes are utterly meaningless.
We are sorry, but we had to exclude Hillary Clinton from the Straw poll because the results are being skewed because of her supporters. You see that 'targeted' voting by Clinton supporters on this and other open polls may even be hurting their candidate because the public is turned off by her supporter's behavior."
"You have somebody like George Tenet acknowledging in his book that he knew that the administration was deceiving the American people into a situation that is murdering young men and women from this country and others, then George Tenet and Dick Cheney and Condoleezza Rice and George Bush should be in fucking jail."-- Sean Penn
