Al Gore needs a time out

Speaking at a gathering of brainwashed climate alarmists last weekend, Al Gore responded to opposing views on anthropogenic global warming by calling the ideas and anyone who espoused them "bullsh*t!"

If you haven't heard the audio, the Goreacle sounds a bit unhinged, like a guy who's finding out that his bolt of lightning lucky plan to make himself obscenely wealthy was falling apart.

Well, that's what happens when you base your powerpoint joke-umentary on an IPCC report that wouldn't stand scrutiny at a sixth grade science fair. Every single point in Gore's movie has been thoroughly rebutted. And even now, the guy who put forth the nonsense about the polar bears drowning that horrified school children is being investigated for fraud and scientific malfeasance.

Global warming? Even the guys at the East Anglia Climate center admit we've been in a period of global cooling for ten years! And even if the overall trend is warming, we haven't even reached the temperature of the planet back when Jesus walked the earth.

No increase in the number of storms or their intensity, despite the hysterical untruths thrown around after the tornado tragedy earlier this year.

Gore barks that climate change deniers are putting forth pseudo-scientists to refute his claims, which is pretty high dudgeon coming from a man who lined up muscians, actors, and businessmen who had bought into his carbon offset ponzi scheme to sign off on his climate manifesto.

In truth, many of those refuting the Goreacle are actual scientists who originally bought into the frenzy and are now realizing the science was faulty and more politically motivated than a search for scientific fact.

I said in a post long ago, that the theory of global warming flies in the face of the Second Law of Thermodynamics -- you simply cannot have a system increase energy all by itself. If that was true, you could seal up a box of air and it would heat up on it's own. Ever see that happen? And within the last day or two, scientists examining NASA's own atmospheric data have found that the upper atmosphere is sheading heat to space much more efficiently and quickly than warming hysterics have claimed with their computer models.

You have to wonder, when people like Gore and Ed Begley and James Cameron are shrieking the "science is settled" why they cannot produce a computer model that accurately predicts anything, even past climate! The E. Anglia e-mail dump showed that the researchers there were baffled by this very situation and wondered if they were heading in the wrong direction with their conclusions. Pity they didn't follow their honest instincts, we wouldn't have this stupid situation now.

As for the Goreacle -- if he wasn't single-handedly wreaking havoc on the world with his unsupportable claims of climate apocolypse, I might feel sorry for him. Dude lost an election that was handed to him on a silver platter. And now his dream of being a climate czar are crashing down under the weight of actual science.
Well, at least he has his paperweight, I mean Nobel Prize.

What in the emo hell?

I wasn't going to do another post tonight, but then I saw this pic of Peaches Geldoff and her new "boy"friend:

Now if I was a skilled blogger, this is where I'd have the YouTube clip on autoplay of Megan Fox from Jennifer's Body going -- "He listens to maggot rock, he wears mascara . . . my d*ck is bigger than his!"

I mean seriously . . . dude . . . at least do something about the shorts. Bad enough you look like she's dragging you down the sidewalk like a recalcitrant child. You're embarrassing us guys.

Quote of the day

From John Hayward, formerly known as Doc Zero, writing at Human Events and exposing the laughably lame string of excuses, stale boilerplate and blame throwing by President Obama today after he showed up 45 minutes late for his own statement on S&P's downgrade of the U.S.'s credit rating:

"There was not a word of contrition, not a hint of responsibility personally accepted by the President, whose attitude can best be summarized as the frustration of a benevolent dictator forced to work in the messy kitchens of democracy."

Kelly Rowland forgot something

Playing at a club over the weekend, Destiny's Child singer Kelly Rowland forgot she got implants last year:

Wearing some kinky leather strappy thingy sized to fit her old a-cups, Kelly's all shakin' her groove thang, and totally forgetting she's got some junk up top now. Physics wins every time.

And this is why Katy Perry spends about an hour with double-sided tape and pasties, doing jumping jacks before every show. But of course, she's used to having wamdigeous boobage. Kelly's still on the learning curve.

Gee, what a coincidence

So I see that President Obama is doing a bus tour towards Iowa as the Ames Straw Poll approaches.

Hmmm, bus tour . . . that sounds so familiar. Where have I run across that before? Oh yeah:

Of course, Sarah was paying her own expenses during her tour through the beauty and grandeur of our country. The cost of the President's bus tour will be footed by . . . you, the taxpayer. 'Cause even though it looks/walks/talks like a campaign exercise, it is being promoted as nothing more than Presidential business. So we, the taxpayers, are paying for the man to campaign for his re-election while he once again raises millions on his own through various fund-raising sources.

I also see that a movie is coming out featuring our president. It supposedly will focus on the killing of bin Laden, but since the script writers and director have been given exclusive access to the White House and all the inner workings of the operation where the President had to take his beauty nap before deciding to take the world's greatest terrorist out, I suspect the movie will focus on the man who wears the mantle of leadership heavy upon his shoulders.

Hmmm, a movie about a political leader and the drama and struggle they face in a crisis . . . that sounds familiar, too. Where have I heard that before? Oh yeah:

Of course the movie about Sarah Palin was created and funded by the director who simply admired the woman and her accomplishments and abhored the relentless attacks on her by the left wing media and political thugs.

The movie celebrating the man who will stop the waters from rising and cool the planet is being funded by the same Hollywood elite who funnel millions into the President's campaign coffers. And by what I am sure is mere happenstance, the movie is slated to premiere just three weeks before the election!

Man, talk about fortuitous timing! President Obama's single positive accomplishment in what will by then be nearly four years in office, and it is being celebrated right before the election. Is that some lucky timing or what?! Almost as if it had been planned that way.

I'm sure it wasn't planned. 'Cause that would be the sort of thing that whole Citizens United case was about. And one thing we know about Democrats is that they're not hypocrites at all. They'd never avail themselves of a legal decision they were so fiercely opposed to and wanted so desperately to reverse.

I'm just wondering if there's a reality show in the works. I mean that's a lot of coincidences mounting up here. And with all the hatred and denigration heaped on Sarah Palin by the left, they sure seem to be cribbing from her pr playbook.

If she's so dumb, what does that make those who copy her?

Update:
You know it's bad when a shrieking liberal like Maureen Dowd is saying the same thing I am:
"The moviemakers are getting top-level access to the most classified mission in history from an administration that has tried to throw more people in jail for leaking classified information than the Bush administration.

It was clear that the White House had outsourced the job of manning up the president’s image to Hollywood when [Mark]Boal got welcomed to the upper echelons of the White House and the Pentagon and showed up recently — to the surprise of some military officers — at a C.I.A. ceremony celebrating the hero Seals."

Rule 5 Sunday -- Anne Hathaway

This week's Rule 5 submission is Anne Hathaway in honor of her casting as Catwoman in the final installment of Chris Nolan's re-imagined Batman series.

Fanboys pissing in their Cheerios are forgetting that when the initial casting of Michelle Pfeifer as Catwoman back in the Tim Burton era of the franchise came out, everyone was highly dubious of Michelle's ability to pull off that character. But her portrayal has since been deemed iconic, and therefore, the standard for the character.

My opinion is that under Nolan's successful direction, Anne's character will be just as powerful, though perhaps not as obviously kinky, as Michelle's. But who knows? Maybe Nolan's got another side to him we've yet to see.

Though I have to admit, his casting of the unimpressive Katie Holmes and subsequent casting of Maggie Gyllenhall (whom I actually like for her fearless role choices in her career) have made me wonder if Nolan is any good with female characters. It's a possibility I suppose.

Chris Nolan is freakin' me the eff out

Theoretically, these are images of Anne Hathaway as Catwoman from the new Batman movie:

I say theoretically because, frankly, you can't tell who that is in the pictures. Anne Hathaway has a fairly distinctive mouth and like when they posted those images from the Wonder Woman TV series, and everyone yakked on how crappy Adrianne Palicki looked in them, then it turned out the images were of the stunt woman . . . well, maybe same thing here.

Also, that kind of looks like that Batcycle thingy from the last movie. And I doubt the budget on this one is so low that they're recycling props from the last movie. So who knows, maybe that's Batgirl and Nolan's been keeping her part in the flick under wraps, or something.

And that's what's been freakin' me out here.

In the past, Chris Nolan's been this total control freak, running his productions under DefCon 1 or 5 or whichever is the highest level (I can never keep that straight) security and now all of the sudden we're practically getting daily pics from the sets.

We've seen Batman, in and out of costume. We've seen Bane, again, in and out of costume. We've seen them fighting. Now we're seeing Catwoman, maybe, I mean what's next? Happy Meal toys? Cups at Circle K? YouTube clips?

Are they afraid there's a lack of interest in this movie and they're trying to gin up fanboy fever or something? This just seems so unlike they way Nolan has worked in the past. Remember the surprise when everyone saw what the Joker looked like? Perhaps he or the studio is afraid they don't have that "OMG" moment with this installment.

weird

And just let me say this about that . . .

Some bloggers are already bitching about the look of Catwoman in these pictures. Now based on how Nolan has re-imagined Batman, did anyone really expect Catwoman to have a cowl with ears and a suit with a tail on it? 'Cause if you did, you need some therapy there sparky. Nolan has done a nice job balancing on the edge of reality with the character looks in the series so far. Batman's look was explained early on. And his suit still has a real world functionality to it. Catwoman is supposed to be a master thief and criminal. It's not out of the ordinary to expect her to have more of a Black Widow-ish look as opposed to a kinky fetish model look.

And I'll once again go on record supporting the casting of Anne Hathaway in the role. I think she's got a groovy, curvy body, and a unique enough face that she'll look smokin' in whatever outfit they pour her into. Plus, she's done enough stuff with an edge to it that I think she can pull off a slightly demented, malice-y type character.

So we'll see. But please, let's find whoever it is that's spiking Chris Nolan's coffee and get them to stop it so he goes back to his secretive, mysterious self. I want to be surprised by the movie when it comes out.

thanks
