Free kibbles

FREEDOM OF SPEECH:

FBI seizes server of anonymous remailer service because somebody used it to email a fake bomb threat.

ECONOMY:

Prediction that IBM will shed 78 percent of US jobs by 2015. Ouch.

TAX AND SPEND:

Research shows that spending cuts stimulate the economy.

The federal government has amassed $5 trillion in debt since Obama took office.

Republicans are leading the charge to take away "tax breaks" for retirement savings. And you thought Republicans supported lower taxes.


U.S. District Judge Victoria Roberts, the same judge who through out sedition charges against the Michigan non-militia also ruled that Fannie and Freddie have to pay property taxes in Michigan. This judge is making herself a big target.


How war and welfare spending, high taxes and brutal regulations brought down the Roman empire and produced feudalism and the dark ages. The US government is doing the same, and if we don't stop it, our civilization will collapse too.

REGULATIONS:

Obama's new regulations shut down swimming pools. FTC to regulate appliance labels. This is another way he's collapsing our economy.

HEALTH CARE:

Top ten upcoming Obamacare taxes and fees.

GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:

Forbes global warming alarmist freaks out.
"We know who the active denialists are – not the people who buy the lies, mind you, but the people who create the lies. Let’s start keeping track of them now, and when the famines come, let’s make them pay. Let’s let their houses burn. Let’s swap their safe land for submerged islands. Let’s force them to bear the cost of rising food prices."
Does he realize that even alarmist scientists don't think much warming will happen for decades? If this guy worked for me, I'd fire him. This kind of irrational rant harms Forbes' reputation. As long as they employ this guy, they aren't a serious publication. From a rebuttal, also in Forbes:
"Direct warming from the greenhouse gas effect of CO2 does not create a catastrophe, and at most, according to the IPCC, might warm the Earth another degree over the next century. The catastrophe comes from the assumption that there are large net positive feedbacks in the climate system that multiply a small initial warming from CO2 many times. It is this assumption that positive feedbacks dominate over negative feedbacks that creates the catastrophe. It is telling that when prominent supporters of the catastrophic theory argue the science is settled, they always want to talk about the greenhouse gas effect (which most of us skeptics accept), NOT the positive feedback assumption. The assumption of net positive climate feedback is not at all settled — in fact there is as much evidence the feedback is net negative as net positive — which may be why catastrophic theory supporters seldom if ever mention this aspect of the science in the media."
I believe the case for negative feedback is much stronger than the case for positive feedback.

Analysis shows that 90 percent of CO2 growth comes from natural causes. Not only does CO2 growth have only a minuscule effect on climate, man has only a minuscule impact on CO2 growth.

EPA passes new regulations to hinder fracking.

POLICE STATE:

The US government allows radical Muslims to come into the US all the time, but it can't manage to provide asylum to Christians who fled violence.

WAR:

Hillary Clinton talks about NATO intervening in Syria. No amount of bloodshed satisfies these monsters.

VA to hire 1,900 additional people to help deal with mental health issues in the military.

It's the 19th anniversary of the Waco massacre.

POLITICS:

Obama is trying to capitalize politically on Pat Summit's illness. What a creep.

Establishment Republican fraud in Wyoming.

The Columbian prostitute at the center of the Secret Service scandal has left town, probably in fear for her life.

Congress is quietly passing a bill requiring spy boxes in all cars by 2015. This is a good reminder that the job of the press is to cover up all the important stuff government does while covering the charades that designed to divide and distract us while government conquers us.

Did we really need a survey to tell us that contraceptives are not a big issue for the upcoming election?

MEDIA:

After a USA Today reporter starts a story on the Pentagon's propaganda service, somebody initiated a propaganda campaign about USA Today and the reporter on the internet. I wonder who could have done it.
"A Pentagon official confirmed that the military had made inquiries to information operations contractors to ask them about the Internet activity. All denied it, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the inquiries were informal and did not amount to an official investigation.
The websites were taken down following those inquiries. Various other sites and accounts were removed for violating their providers' terms of service."
...
""This is the work of somebody who knows what they're doing. They have some experience of covering their tracks. This is probably not the first time they've done something like this," said Beal, CEO of Trackur, an online reputation tracking service."
Surely none of our incorruptible government employees would do such a thing.

MISC:

The amazing thing about the space shuttle piggybacking on a 747 is not the space shuttle. It's the 747.

You can diet with a feeding tube up your nose.

These restrictions in the interest of protecting sponsors could seriously damage these Olympics.
