USNews.com: Opinion: Michael Barone: Barone Blog: The Next Populist Crusade: "I'm with Glenn Reynolds of instapundit.com on this one. If we want to curb carbon dioxide emissions, then let's ban private jets. It's funny seeing those Hollywood stars private-jetting into Washington to tell the rest of us that we've got to have a lower standard of living. Let them fly first class, and save the Earth! But maybe we should make an exception for Warren Buffett, who has the nerve to christen his Berkshire Hathaway corporate jet 'The Indefensible.' "

Global Warming: The Cold, Hard Facts?

Global Warming: The Cold, Hard Facts?: "A scientist makes certain assumptions and then produces a theory which is only as valid as the assumptions. The theory of Global Warming assumes that CO2 is an atmospheric greenhouse gas and as it increases temperatures rise. It was then theorized that since humans were producing more CO2 than before, the temperature would inevitably rise. The theory was accepted before testing had started, and effectively became a law.
As Lindzen said many years ago: 'the consensus was reached before the research had even begun.' Now, any scientist who dares to question the prevailing wisdom is marginalized and called a sceptic, when in fact they are simply being good scientists. This has reached frightening levels with these scientists now being called climate change denier with all the holocaust connotations of that word. The normal scientific method is effectively being thwarted. "

Interesting analysis

"That's Saul, folks!": Articles of Interest 2-5-07
"So the question is, do we invest (spend) in Michigan’s future…and how do we do that. In an article from the Mackinac Center, they point out how government manipulates the word “invest” to mean “spend beyond” the current tax revenues. And that drum roll has started.
If I sound cynical and skeptical, I am. I’ve watched this Administration bow to the “wants” of special interests, blame everyone under the sun for our problems, and continue to increase spending year after year while Michigan’s economy falters."

Taboo?

France: Workers of the World, Zzz - New York Times: "The health minister, Xavier Bertrand, plans to spend $9 million this year to improve public awareness of sleeping problems. One thing he wants to know is whether French workers should be allowed to nap on the job. They enjoy a 35-hour work week and generous vacations, yet 56 percent complain that a poor night’s sleep has affected their job performance, according to the ministry. “Why not a nap at work?” Mr. Bertrand told a news conference. “It can’t be a taboo subject.”"
Why not sex on the job?

OxBlog: "I pledge allegiance to the first amendment, which I interpret to mean that government shouldn’t traffic with religion—neither promote it nor persecute it—and this means that, in the public arena, the candidate should not use religious rhetoric, which does nothing but harm, fogging over the clear lines of argument on the issues and eliciting irrelevant and irrational choices in the electorate.

I'm sure Dr. King would beg to differ with the passage in boldface."
