Many fine folks are peeved with Palin over her announced support for McCain’s reelection campaign.  I'm not.  McCain brought her to the national spotlight, and dancing with the one that brought you is a sign of a good character.

My suggestion for those of you who are upset with Palin over this is to send a donation to both JD Hayworth and to SarahPAC. 

McCain is already targeting Hayworth with an email blast to his supporters:

Unfortunately, J.D. Hayworth has a record of talking like a conservative, but voting like a liberal on fiscal issues.

If he had only been half as tough in criticizing Obama, he might have actually won.

Liberal Talk Radio failed.  Bankrupt.  That’s what happens to dumb ideas managed by people who hate business.

Let’s hope the Tea Party movement can take back congress before the left bankrupts the whole country with their asinine naiveté.  

The left is so partisan they can’t even compromise with themselves on their own health bill.  Pelosi announced today that:

"In its present form without any changes I don't think it's possible to pass the Senate bill in the House, I don't see the votes for it at this time."

At the same time, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters there have been White House meetings focusing on a scenario that “merges the House and Senate products.”

Pelosi’s Democrats can’t accept the health bill by Reid’s Democrats, and vice versa. 

My question is, how are Republicans supposed to cut a bipartisan compromise with Democrats when the Democrats can’t even work out a partisan compromise amongst themselves? 

Remember this the next time a Dem squeals about wanting the GOP to act in a bipartisan manner.  It isn’t about compromise for Democrats, its about power.

A final thought.  What is the difference between the Republican threat to use the Nuclear Option and Democrats making the same threat?  The Democrats only purpose was to wield power.  They want to force an entirely partisan bill through the Senate in the face of 100% Republican opposition.  The Republican threat was solely to release the logjam of Bush judicial nominees that were being blocked by Democrats, who refused to even allow the confirmation votes to occur, because they knew they could not even hold their own party together on those votes.

Barney Frank backpedals.  Pelosi pushes.  Reid runs.

The likelihood is that Pelosi will push health care forward, trying to place the blame on Reid and the Senate for its failure. 

It’s a beautiful morning.  Some have coffee.  I prefer diet coke.

And Keith Olbermann is having tea.  How do those teabags taste now, Keith?

How can you believe the FBI got actionable intelligence from an isolated extremist?  More analysis from the Weekly Standard.

Obama criticizes ‘fat-cat’ bankers for giving out bonuses. 

He neglects to mention the increase in government bonuses and salaries in these hard times.

It’s always a good idea to follow the money.  Basically, thanks to government funding, we created a bunch of climate whores.

An astonishing demonstration of creative robotics.

First off, I am not even going to try and explain the headline.  Read the Darwin Zero report from Willis Eschenbach at the informativeWatts Up With That site by Anthony Watts.  You’ll either get it or you won’t.  That’s part of the problem with liberals, they are too lazy to do the research, they trust their opinions and the opinions of friends, and ignore anything that contradicts them.  

Want to be right?  Read the link.  It won’t take all that long, and this is important. 

The following graph is the smoking gun, showing just how artificially the Climategate crowd has been altering the raw data to make it fit.  The black line jumping every 20 years was averaged into raw data to turn a temperature decline into an increase.

Even before Climategate, there was more than enough information available for a curious person to satisfy their self that global warming, if any, was not man made and certainly not caused by CO2. 

In other words, Climategate is only simplifying the fraud down to a level where even the MSM can understand it.  Which may force the ones that value what little reputation they have left to do a little actual research and reporting.

The rest of us, the smart ones, had already looked into the the issues such as C02 lagging behind warming periods (or here), the lack of automobiles during the Medieval Warming Period, and the failure of climate models to include either fluctuations in solar output or the effect of clouds (or here). 

Basically, for quite some time, you had to be a fool to believe in AGW.  To still believe, you need to admit it’s a religion, not science.
