Global Warmers Can’t Even Figure Out What is Happening Today

Posted by Martin C. Fox on May 20, 2013

Here is yet another admission that the average global temperature has not risen since 1998 despite significant increases in CO2.  This from the BBC no less.  The UK government’s proxy global warming cheerleader.

Yet we are to swallow their line that oh yes…future long range predictions are still valid and be sure to keep those research grants coming.

This begs the question what if CO2 is not a major player?  Read the rest of this entry »

Your Child is a Head Case

Posted by Martin C. Fox on May 19, 2013

At least that is what the government wants you to think.

McClatchy Newspapers reports today that the CDC says one in 5 children experience a mental health disorder. According to Big Brother 20% of our children are head cases. Only 21% get treatment. A mind numbing 79% of these kids aren’t getting their share of mind numbing drugs.

“Mood disorders” are up 70% since 1997. I am getting a mood disorder just thinking about this.

The CDC is only one of many political tools designed to control the populace. Remember when it instructed doctors to ask all their patients if they were gun owners? Gun ownership is a disease in the eyes of the government. Then there was last years flu epidemic that wasn’t. But a lot of (50% ineffective) vaccines were sold. On a more positive note we are becoming more used to taking the drugs we are instructed to take. Read the rest of this entry »

Investing In Amtrak-Good for Erie? Good for Anyone?

Posted by Martin C. Fox on May 11, 2013

The 10 May Erie Times editorial advocates investing in Amtrak.  It should have said MORE investing.  I am sure the Westcott family’s ride to NYC was pleasant and economical as stated.  It was economical because they weren’t charged enough.   Amtrak loses $Billions every year.  The taxpayer makes up the difference.  The main reason Amtrak exists is for the Washington to NY and Boston run.  Another taxpayer subsidized freebie for government employees as well as Bostonians and New Yorkers used to living off the rest of us.  This more of that wealth redistribution thing of which our president is so very fond.
Indeed, the Cato Institute says that it would be cheaper to provide individual commercial plane fare for the outlaying runs.   Read the rest of this entry »

Smartphones, Google and Facebook-Privacy Smashing Surveillance Tools

Posted by Martin C. Fox on April 19, 2013

Some stores can use your smartphone to track where you stop and tailor subsequent ads. I have a smart phone. I have never turned on the GPS. I no longer use a data plan. I still use the Tune In radio app. One of the things it tells you is that it tracks your phone calls.  A post I recently read describes smartphones as surveillance tools that also allow you to make phone calls.

Google mines data like Dobsy in Treasure of the Sierra Madre. They troll for unprotected wifi while photographing your street and home. Bad news. Read the rest of this entry »

NRA, Unions, Special Interests and Their PACS

Posted by Martin C. Fox on April 14, 2013

All PACS are not alike and the differences are important. Let us look at some of the more influential rogues.

PACS are not the most desirable of organizations but they do represent groups views. The government is literally Daddy WARbucks and everyone competes for their share of the taxpayers’ stolen dollars.

The NRA buys influence, at least that is what one hears from the lamestream media. You don’t hear that about the service employees union or the fraternal order of police. Sure, the NRA puts money in campaign coffers just like the service employees or the fop. The NRA doesn’t buy influence, they affect the vote. They publicize who does what. They shine the light and politicians, like the vampires they are, do not like the light. That makes Washington afraid of the voter, as it should be. I read there have been 70 million background checks since inauguration day. That is a big voting block, almost as big as government employees or welfare recipients.

The media wants us to think politicians are afraid of the NRA but they are really afraid of whom they represent. Voters.

Unions are a different story. Read the rest of this entry »

Yet More Proof (Man Made) Global Warming Is a Hoax

Posted by Martin C. Fox on March 24, 2013

How long are you going to ignore the lies in the East Anglia U emails?  It is hard to ignore the Daily Mail admitting global warming is a pack of lies.

See here

which contains this, text emphasis added.


global warming graph

Steadily climbing orange and red bands on the graph show the computer predictions of world temperatures used by the official United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

The estimates – given with 75 per cent and 95 per cent certainty – suggest only a five per cent chance of the real temperature falling outside both bands.

But when the latest official global temperature figures from the Met Office are placed over the predictions, they show how wrong the estimates have been, to the point of falling out of the ‘95 per cent’ band completely.

The graph shows in incontrovertible detail how the speed of global warming has been massively overestimated. Yet those forecasts have had a ruinous impact on the bills we pay, from heating to car fuel to huge sums paid by councils to reduce carbon emissions.

The eco-debate was, in effect, hijacked by false data. The forecasts have also forced jobs abroad as manufacturers relocate to places with no emissions targets.

A version of the graph appears in a leaked draft of the IPCC’s landmark Fifth Assessment Report due out later this year. It comes as leading climate scientists begin to admit that their worst fears about global warming will not be realised.

Have you ever thought “shouldn’t there be more plant and animal life if there is more carbon”?

Apparently there is.  See here

I figure there has been climate change going on for about 12-15 billion years.  I figure Greenland was called Greenland for a reason.  I figure there is a rea$on why East Anglia Univer$ity and profe$$or Mann don’t admit publicly what they admit privately in leaked email$.  That their climate model$ can’t explain pa$t warming and cooling cycle$ let alone what i$ happening now or in the future.  I figure there i$ a rea$on why inefficient bio-fuel$ are being promoted at the expen$e of badly needed food crop$ and wildlife habitat

What do you figure?

I am beginning to think Whomever put all those biological fuels in the ground knew what He was doing.

Obama To Pay States For Medicare Expansion-Don’t Take the Bait

Posted by Martin C. Fox on March 10, 2013

The government gets $1T further in debt each year. Why would it offer to pay states more to add to the medicare burden? I am willing to bet it would cost many trillions of dollars to cover the baby boomer generation. I normally take anything neocon warparty spokesman Jonah Goldberg says with a handful of salt but…today he quotes the HHS info director Gary Cohen as saying a $5B Obamacare pre-existing condition bridge really costs $40B. Goldberg quotes the GAO as putting the  75 year cost of “won’t add one dime” Obamacare at $6.2T.

“Free”, “government money” comes with strings attached. That is, of course, the whole idea. Take the “free money” and do as we say or face our badge and our guns.

Obama has no intention of reducing spending and intends to increase spending as much as possible. Ultimate control over our lives is the progressives’ end game.

Dependence on government for survival and squashing of resistance, of which gun control is a part, are the tools which get this job done. Read the rest of this entry »

ROTC and Penn State Indoctrinates War Party Advocate

Posted by Martin C. Fox on February 23, 2013

We are very ready for war but not for peace.

The 22 Feb Erie Times guest voice, an ROTC company commander and Penn State history major, attempts to compare the use of militias in the war of 1812 to “lack of readiness” as the cause of our “problems” in Iraq and Afghanistan. Mr. Payne could write for the Weekly Standard.

There is much to compare that was not mentioned.

The US defense budget is more than most of the industrialized world combined. Who else has 7 or 8 carrier fleets, ICBMs, spy satellites, the most advanced aircraft, 700+ bases in 170 countries, cameras in soldiers helmets and innumerable varieties of special forces? No one. How on earth can the US not be ready to defeat countries barely out of the stone-age? Yet we continue to get our butts kicked.

Men, women and matériel are not the issue. The people running the show are the problem. Today’s political and military leaders are like 1812′s William Hull. The incompetent Hull lead us to disaster in Canada. Defeated by forces that were half militia. Read the rest of this entry »

We Are Not Under Dictatorship?-Prove It!

Posted by Martin C. Fox on February 13, 2013

Totalitarian rule has been on the rise more or less since the first Adams.  Peaks have occurred during the Lincoln, the two Roosevelt, Wilson and notably Bush and Obama administrations.

The president declares war, not congress, in direct violation of the Constitution.  Laws via executive order are implemented bypassing Congress.  Private communication of all sorts is subject to scrutiny by the government.  The government tells our neighbors to report dissenters.  Dissenters are labeled “radical”, “extremist” and lately “racist”.  Secret Service agents can arrest anyone for conversations they deem inappropriate.  Ron Paul is labeled a radical extremist for promoting peace!

Janet Is Waiting to Pounce. You May Have Broken A Stupid Law Which You Have No Idea Exists. Why Make It Easy For Big Sis to Screw You to Justify Her Job. Encrypt

Posted by Martin C. Fox on February 7, 2013

THE ENFORCER’S GOALS ARE TO JUSTIFY THEIR JOB, GENERATE FEAR, GET CONVICTIONS AND GET PROMOTIONS.  The latest string of pathetic half-baked FBI stings is proof of that. Innocents are merely collateral splat.

Government surveillance is more pervasive every day.  The multibillion dollar fusion center in Utah will capture every communication in the US if not the world.  They can’t read it all but if someone decides you need looking at, the dossier will be there. 

The enforcer’s want to put together everything-email, telephone calls, texts, where you serf, what TV you watch, your digital money transactions, taxes, where you go (GPS data)-in a neat package. Read the rest of this entry »
