Manbearpig lives (at least in AlGore's mind)

We all thought that the myth of Manbearpig was finally settled after the Climategate.  It showed what many of us have known all along but could not prove, that much of the Global Warming Climate Change Manbearpig data was suspect and most likely altered or skewed to a certain outcome.

But give some props to AlGore for his stubbornness.   I am serial.  He is still out there still trying to say any kind of weather phenomenon is  because of Manbearpig:

“[T]he odds have shifted toward much larger downpours,” Gore said. “And we have seen that happen in the Northeast, we’ve seen it happen in the Northwest – in both of those regions are among those that scientists have predicted for a long time would begin to experience much larger downpours.”

This is preposterous on its face.   We have had Nor’Easterns before and will have them in the future.   Just as we will have some summers hotter than others and some colder.   Just as the Sahara will one day be green again, as it has been several thousands of years ago.

The Climate of the Earth is not predicable and never will be, and all the computer models in the world could never replicate the variables that affect the climate and the temperature of the Earth.  Nature is not something that you can put into a model and predict its outcome.   And with the last 2 huge Earthquakes over the last few years changing the rotation of the Earth, we have no idea what effect that will have on the climate over the next decade or millennium.

A lesson on how the Government works

OK we have heard over and over again form the Obamassiah how her inherited the deficit from President Bush.    well, if you know how the the Government works, you know this is a farce.   So here is a little lesson on where the Deficit came from and who is to blame.

The Washington Post babbled again today about Obama inheriting a huge deficit from Bush.

Amazingly enough, a lot of people swallow this nonsense.  So once more,  a short civics lesson.

Budgets do not come from the White House.  They come from Congress, and the party that controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democratic Party.  They controlled the budget process for FY 2008 and FY 2009, as well as FY 2010 and FY 2011.  In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases.  For FY 2009, though, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid bypassed George Bush entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running until Barack Obama could take office.  At that time, they passed a massive omnibus spending bill to complete the FY 2009 budgets.

And where was Barack Obama during this time?  He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he signed the omnibus bill as President to complete FY 2009.  Let’s remember what the deficits looked like during that period:

If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the FY 2007 deficit, the last of the Republican budgets.  That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the fourth straight decline in deficit spending.  After that, Democrats in   Congress took control of spending, and that includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets.  If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself.
In a nutshell,  what Obama is saying is I inherited a deficit that I voted for and then I voted to expand that deficit four-fold since January 20th.
