Must everything be sexualized these days?
A recent study has concluded that exposure to sexual imagery can cause psychological as well as physical harm to children who are exposed to it on a regular basis, especially girls. This is bad for children. It isn’t rocket science. It is self-evident that the current generation of Baby Boomers, while currently occupying the positions of power in the government and media, are –to a large extent– responsible for the messages being sent through the various media formats, whether they be Internet, print or audio/visual.

Licentiousness - lI-’sen(t)-sh&s-n&s - 1. Lacking legal or moral restraints. 2. Disregarding sexual restraints. 3. Marked by disregard for strict rules of correctness. ©2006-2007 Merriam Webster Inc.
The liberal mind is infected… Diseased.
The disease places the victim in a persistent vegetative state with no cerebral centers of judgment or restraint and presents as a chronic inability to visualize the long-term consequences of one’s actions. Although I am a political independent, the main reasons that I never trust a liberal are their moral bankruptcy and licentiousness, their complete absence of logic and their tendency to willingly contribute to their own demise if it will bring their utopian ideals of social justice and the redistribution of American wealth to fruition.

Democrats continue to hide their disdain for America’s military. But every now and then, it seeps out into the open. Despite their phony expressions of support, they will never convince this veteran that they are serious about us or the national security of this nation. With very few exceptions, Democrats have collectively become the anti-war party. The party of Jane Fonda, who once strapped on a Vietnamese anti-aircraft weapon and giggled in support of North Vietnam. And their rhetoric is beginning to reflect it. Consider this plethora of recent examples:

With nearly two years left until the 2008 election, many of the candidates will travel to key primary states to get an early edge, courting voters and making stump speeches. Hillary Clinton is no exception. She has had her eye on the White House for years despite numerous denials. A few years back, she made a strategic drift to the center, hoping to woo veterans and other segments of the conservative base by trying to appear hawkish on the war in Iraq. But now, sensing a sea change in America’s support for the war, she has reversed course and is listing to port once again.
Many conservatives are horrified at the prospect of another Clinton presidency, but I am more worried about potential shenanigans by the First Lady, should Hillary get elected. I don’t believe she will win the White House, although it’s too early to say what will happen. I also don’t believe there are many Americans who haven’t already made up their minds about Mrs. Clinton. She is far too polarizing a figure.

This is the third of a multi-part series
Part III.
Previously, we looked at the IPCC and the role that politics plays in its election and report publication processes. We also looked at its connection with the Kyoto Protocol, which upon objective examination is nothing more than the forfeiture of western technology and knowledge to poorer countries in the interests of cleaning up the environment. Next, we took a look at the scientific techniques involved in reaching all of the doomsday conclusions and examined why many of these techniques were biased in favor of the conclusions they reached.

This is the second of a multi-part series
Part II.
Overview of the IPCC Climate change methodology.
Let’s start with what a couple of examples of modern, acceptable science look like today. The efficacy of birth control is generally considered effective if it works 98 - 99.9% of the time. The results of DNA testing are used in death penalty cases when the results demonstrate a 99.5% - 99.9% or higher probability of matching a criminal defendant. In many criminal cases that hinge on DNA, the statistical odds that the DNA matches someone else are nearly equal the number of people on the planet, or one in several billion.
Why should we accept anything less when discussing something of such global significance, which liberals argue will imminently kill us all in less than a generation if we don’t stop it ? Acceptable statistical probabilities generally hover in the 95% certainty range and this is an obstacle to the acceptance of any statistical evidence as conclusive proof of anything.

The evidence is in. The headlines proclaim:
“Global Warming Man Made, Will Continue”.
“Scientists Agree: Humans Causing Global Warming.”
Democrats are screeching “SEE… I told you so!” People are throwing around words like absolute and unequivocal to describe the evidence. The noses of Jacques Chirac and the US Senate have turned upwards in their indignation towards the fuel consumption habits of the American people, and someone - somewhere is probably saying “There ought to be a law.”
The recently publicized conclusions about global warming and the hysterics that followed were based on an executive summary released February 2nd by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). This latest report is one in a series from the IPCC that has been released every few years.
