The S.O.B.... telling us to consume less energy... himself personally consumes more.NASHVILLE - In the year since Al Gore took steps to make his home more energy-efficient, the former Vice President’s home energy use surged more than 10%, according to the Tennessee Center for Policy Research.
“A man’s commitment to his beliefs is best measured by what he does behind the closed doors of his own home,” said Drew Johnson, President of the Tennessee Center for Policy Research. “Al Gore is a hypocrite and a fraud when it comes to his commitment to the environment, judging by his home energy consumption.”
In the past year, Gore’s home burned through 213,210 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity, enough to power 232 average American households for a month.

In the wake of becoming the most well-known global warming alarmist, Gore won an Oscar, a Grammy and the Nobel Peace Prize. In addition, Gore saw his personal wealth increase by an estimated $100 million thanks largely to speaking fees and investments related to global warming hysteria.
“Actions speak louder than words, and Gore’s actions prove that he views climate change not as a serious problem, but as a money-making opportunity,” Johnson said. “Gore is exploiting the public’s concern about the environment to line his pockets and enhance his profile.”
Well, that's what I've been saying all along myself. Now the Tennessee Center for Policy Research says the same things.
Story here.Boxun News, a Chinese-language Web site based outside China, reported that an unnamed expert has claimed that there was a nuclear explosion near the epicenter of the Sichuan earthquake, based on witness reports and the discovery of concrete rubble believed to have come from an underground military installation. The news of this nuclear explosion has raised questions about the cause of the earthquake.
Mr. He, a local resident, stated that when the earthquake occurred on May 12, people saw something erupt from the top of a mountain next to the valley, "It looked like toothpaste being squeezed out," said He. "No, it wasn't [magma]. It was these concrete pieces. The eruption lasted about three minutes."
According to a China News Services (CNS) report on May 31, 2008, paramedics from People's Liberation Army (PLA) hospitals and psychologists from Beijing onsite May 23 found concrete debris at the bottom of a valley near the epicenter. The half-mile-wide valley was covered with debris 10 - 20 inches thick, covering the valley floor for almost 1.5 miles.
(...)
The thickness of the concrete pieces seemed to match that used in China's underground military bases, according to Boxun's expert. He explained that while there are documented cases that earthquakes cause volcanic eruptions, there are no accounts of eruptions ejecting concrete.
Based on the CNS report and timing of the eruption at the scene, there seemed to be no evidence of natural volcanic activity. The expert stated he was certain a nuclear explosion shattered the underground concrete structures, hurling debris into the air.
Was the tragic, catastrophic earthquake actually the fault of the Chinese Communist Party? Did a nuclear bomb accidentally... or deliberately... go off?Could it have been an attempt at a distraction from the Communists' troubles leading up to the Olympics? I note that the earthquake pretty much diverted media attention from the massacres in Tibet and crackdown activities in China.I had actually wondered to myself whether they could've actually caused an earthquake on purpose.Now my suspicions are being given legitimacy. Well, we're talking about the horrible Communists. They're capable of anything, no matter how monumentally evil.
Story here. There's pictures of the bigoted Communist agents in action at the link.FLUSHING, New York City—Two attacks on Falun Gong practitioners occurred on Sunday and Monday of this week. The first attack was in Brooklyn on Sunday and another similar attack occurred in Flushing, Queens on Monday.
(...)
Police arrested a man on Monday in Flushing, Queens after he struck and broke the camera of Hongyi Pan who has been reporting for The Epoch Times on recent attacks on Falun Gong practitioners in Flushing. The incident took place around noon on Main Street. According to Hongyi, pedestrians told him that a man was acting crazily and was aggressively grabbing newspapers from Epoch Times distributors.
The man was said to be angry that his photo had been published on the cover of the Chinese edition of The Epoch Times in a section showing those involved in a hate protest against a Falun Dafa parade.
(...)
A similar attack occurred in Brooklyn on Sunday this week. Qiu Wei, a man known to be a local Chinese community leader, allegedly assaulted Falun Gong practitioner John Yu with a metal steering-wheel lock.
Hate crimes. These hateful attacks against the peaceful Falun Gong are becoming more and more frequent.Whither the ACLU? Oh, yeah... forgot. The ACLU is Communist, too, so we shouldn't expect them to come to the aid of the Falun Gong, whom the Communists hate for no valid reason at all.Why, also, doesn't the mainstream media tell the People about this alarming crisis of hate speech and violence against the peaceful Falun Gong? Is the mainstream media Communist, too? Do they whore themselves out to the Chinese Communist Party? Are the mainstream media hateful?This hatred must be stopped. Let's get to work! For starters, let's deport anyone suspected of being an agent of the Chinese Communist Party with an agenda of spreading hate. The CCP can't complain if we do, for the CCP is one of history's nastiest, bloodiest, most hateful, evil entities of all.
Islamic "honor killings" will get the perps charged with murder. Thank goodness!We can be excused for wondering whatever happened with the case. In fact, just yesterday I was actually wondering whatever happened to the Parvez murder case, whether they were going to let the guy go just because he's a Muslim and they don't want to anger the likes of the CAIR-CAN, the CIC, etc.Story here.The father of a Mississauga teen killed last year has been charged today with first-degree murder in connection with her death.
Muhammad Parvez, 57, appeared in a Brampton courtroom today where he was officially charged. The charge is an indication investigators believe the girl’s killing was pre-meditated.
Parvez was arrested in early December after his daughter Aqsa, 16, was found strangled in the family's Mississauga home.
(...)
The death drew international attention after her friends said she had argued with her father over her desire to shun the hijab, a traditional Muslim scarf that covers the head and shoulders.
No tolerance for intolerance. No apology for being free. Being a Muslim does NOT entitle one to abuse and murder women, children, Kaffirs, etc... So Muslims in Canada beware: You will be prosecuted for breaking our laws, just as must and will everyone else! You are equal to everyone else, therefore you have both the same rights and responsibilities. So break the law and you'll be forced to take responsibility.
Muslim daughters have the same rights as non-Muslim daughters. Harm them in any way for exercising and enjoying their rights, and you'll be very, very sorry!
We say NO! to Islamization. We reject Islam as a potential government. We will never tolerate any move towards an Islamic state in Canada. So forget about Islamizing Canada, for it's futile, and the further along you get, the more Canadians will become aware, and the more that we become aware, the harder it'll get for Islamic fascists/supremacists/imperialists to try to impose their ideology on us.So complain to the HRCs. See if I care. The HRC fascists can suck the moisture out of my shorts.
Are they politically suicidal?What makes them think we want to pay more, via a "carbon tax", on electricity and heating our homes?I sure as f*ck don't want to.So... is there any doubt that they want to raise our taxes?Don't believe their lies about "shifting" the taxes around. We remember their infamously broken vow to abolish the hated GST.Sure, we want "strong leadership" on "the environment".But we don't want the Liberals to screw around with our taxes. The only result therefrom can only be higher taxes overall and a crappier environment. Yes, they'd further crappify the environment, exactly as they did after they promised to follow Kyoto, a promise they thankfully broke.
You want to pay more for your power and heat? Then vote Liberal. Knock yourself out, sucker!
Story here. ht: NationalNewswatch.comConservative allegations that Elections Canada tipped off the media and the opposition Liberals to an RCMP raid on Tory Party headquarters so troubled Canada's Chief Electoral Officer that he sought ways to "kill" the story, internal documents reveal.
(...)
In the days after the high-profile raid in Ottawa, the Tories charged that Elections Canada had ignored similar electoral ad spending transgressions by the opposition, and told the media and Liberals about the raid to maximize political damage.
"With regard to this allegation of [a] leak do you have any suggestion as to how we could kill it?" Mr. Mayrand asked in an e-mail dated April 18.
"If we can dispel this story [the leak], we will have only positive media coverage," replied Ms. Vézina, the associate deputy chief electoral officer in charge of political financing. "And the alternative is that we appear to be partisan or biased or vindictive and at the moment the media seem to believe we tipped off the CBC and the Liberals."
(...)
The remaining documents show Elections Canada kept a close eye on media coverage of the raid and its political fallout. Summaries of blogs, websites and broadcasts were compiled.
Ominous, isn't it?This only raises suspicions with respect to Mr. Mayrand and Elections Canada.Sure, they deny the leak. They claim an "internal review" supposedly proves there was no tip-off. That's their claim.They seem quite obsessed with what the People are learning about their agency. They obsess over what everyone says. Probably will even read this very blog post, big-brother-style. Hi there, you liberal fascists! Whazzup!They stink.I'm more than ever suspicious that they are indeed partisan, ideological and discriminatory. They deny it, of course. But leftists lie as naturally as a bear shits in the woods.
If they hadn't decided to discriminate against the Conservatives in the first place, then they wouldn't be having such inconvenience. But they made their decision.
Barack Obama's half-brother, Malik, shows us a pic of Obama with family members. Apparently Obama's on the far left (what's up with leftists tending to appear on the left in pictures?!), wearing a lovely purple gown. Doesn't he look pretty?Apparently the Obamas of Kenya have been reading those scurrilous emails to which Barack likes to refer, because they have no doubt -- contrary to the claims of the Obama campaign, that the presidential candidate was raised a Moslem. They take that as a given.
As the Jerusalem Post reports, "Barack Obama's half brother Malik said Thursday that if elected his brother will be a good president for the Jewish people, despite his Muslim background. In an interview with Army Radio he expressed a special salutation from the Obamas of Kenya."
(...)
In a remarkable denial issued last November that still stands on the official campaign website, Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs issued a statement explaining that "Senator Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised as a Muslim, and is a committed Christian."
(...)
Melanie Phillips is the most recent commentator to draw attention to the massive body of evidence that leaves no doubt that Barak Hussein Obama was born a Muslim (Islam is patrilineal) and raised a Muslim (so registered in school, acknowledging attending Islamic classes, reported accompanying his step-father to the mosque, and able to recite the Koran in the original Arabic).
Barack Obama denies ever having been a Muslim. But is he lying? Is he practicing Taqiyya? Why would he lie about having once been Muslim? If he's not Muslim any longer, then why is it that radical, extremist Islamists endorse him and want him to be President if he's an apostate? After all, Islamic fascists hate apostates and frequently execute them for apostasy, at least in the Islamic world. What's going on, then? Why would Obama lie about his past? Why does he feel he has to lie? Is he ashamed of having converted from Islam to Christianity? Why doesn't Obama come clean? Of course, were he to become President, how will the Islamic world view him then? After all, the likes of Iran's Ahmadinejad will see him as deserving of death for his apostasy. He'll be even more reviled by Islamic fundamentalist leaders of Islamic nations than was even Bush. They'll say, well, at least Bush is true to his faith, unlike Obama. So many questions. Obama's one mysterious dude. And he says you can trust him? Trust someone who'd lie about religious conversion? What kind of change does this... liar... have in mind for America? We don't know. He hasn't said!
I guess Obama's "Fight the Smear" website will have to attack his half-brother for "smearing" him as a Muslim apostate, then. After all, leftists like Barack tend to denounce inconvenient truth as a "smear". Either BHO will have to disown and condemn his half-brother or will have to admit that he had allowed lies to be told on his behalf and that he, after all, was indeed a Muslim. A Muslim apostate.
To remind people that Obama wants to be the most powerful man in America and in the world, one must look again at the photograph below. Why doesn't he put his hand on his heart for the national anthem of his country (even Hillary will perform the patriotic ritual)? Why does he prefer to put his hands over his genitals? This guy also refuses to wear the American flag as a lapel pin. Some patriot. Contrast him to John McCain, who suffered for his country as a prisoner of war.
Interesting. This reminded me of the persecution of Ezra Levant and Mark Steyn for saying inconvenient things about Islam.In this case, an American blogger in Singapore criticized a judge, opining that she was "prostituting herself" by doing the bidding of a top politician. The blogger is supposed to also have criticized the Singaporean legal system as "corrupt". What, are the Singaporean People forbidden to criticize the state apparatus?Sounds a lot like the way it works in Canada. When one makes comments found inconvenient by the state apparatus, which has an agenda (ultra-far-left) which can be inconvenienced by people simply saying inconvenient things, one finds oneself being persecuted for simply rendering an opinion. Enter the "human rights" commissions, which are actually nothing more than corrupt fascist entities telling Canadians what they may and may not say, taking away peoples' rights, ruining their lives and so on. Just for exercising their inalienable, constitutionally-guaranteed and -protected right to freedom of expression. And the commissions discriminate. They favor, for example, sexual extremists and fundamentalist Islamists over those who aren't like that. Rights are irrelevant to the commissions. Evidence is irrelevant to them. Equality is irrelevant. So many things which we thought were sacred and inviolable are irrelevant to the liberal fascists of the HRCs. They will personally, ideologically, politically, fascistically deem what shall be and what shall not be. They punish people for exercising their rights! When our rights as exercised are deemed inconvenient by the HRCs, they'll take them away! And they discriminate in so doing, taking rights away from members of some groups but not members of others, practicing hateful double standards!I wonder whether truth is a defence in Singaporean courts, as opposed to in Canada. I wonder if the Singaporeans, in actual practice, have more rights than Canadians, or suffer the same situation via corrupt, ideologically-extreme, pseudojudicial fascism by bigoted and/or self-interested, in-conflict-of-interest state apparatchiks.Another question: If the blogger in Singapore tries to offer evidence of corruption of the courts/judges, will the judge, if corrupt, then allow the evidence? Why would a corrupt judge allow evidence specifically inconvenient to him/her and the court? What's stopping judges from acting in their own interests, or in the interests of their cronies or of their ideology/politics? What if a judge is secretly hateful/intolerant? What's keeping such judges in line?Hmm. This brings me to another question. In Canada, who judges the judges? Sure, higher judges judge lower judges in appeals, but then who judges the Supreme Court justices? Why, in a free and democratic society based on the rule of law and a constitution and charter of rights and freedoms, should the People accept the SCOC's rulings as the final word on things? What if the People disagree? What if the ruling is clearly not in conformity with the Constitution Act and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms? If the SCOC is reasonably seen by the People as having broken the Constitution/Charter and ruled simply as they saw fit, then what is the remedy? Shouldn't there be a form of democratic appeal? Why not have a mechanism wherein a referendum can be legally forced by the People to decide whether to overturn the ruling of the SCOC?The People must be the final judge. Not unelected, unaccountable, politician-appointed, radical political activists pretending to be "judges" and going far beyond and outside the realm of their duties, the Constitution and the Charter.We shall not tolerate a dictatorship/tyranny of the judiciary.
Story here.A 5-year-old Los Angeles boy is fighting for his life after police say he was severely tortured with burns and food deprivation by his lesbian mother and her live-in girlfriend.
Officials say the child has countless cigarette burns all over his body, including his genitals, and can't open his hands because he was forced to put them flat on a hot stove.
The boy was also repeatedly beaten and forced to sit in his own urine, police said.
"In my time in policing in 27 years, I have never seen anybody with these kinds of injuries that has lived," Los Angeles Police Department First Assistant Chief James McDonnell said. "And this kid must have a tremendous will to live to be able to still hang on despite what he's been through."
Very sad. Hope they throw the whole book at those two hateful monsters. This hateful evil cannot be tolerated.
I see the Toronto Star is trying to spin this as if it was something terrible and exclusive to the Conservatives.Oh, come on. So when a minister has government business, flies to the place where that is, and, if there's time afterwards, attends to nearby party business, so what? Only a left-wing sophist would claim that the taxpayers are therefore somehow donating their money to the party just because they paid for the government business trip which had, as a happy coincidence, some party business at the same place and proximate in terms of time.The same amount of money gets spent by taxpayers whether there's party business or not.Nothing has been proven otherwise.Besides, I don't recall the Toronto Star going after the Liberal Party so overzealously as it goes after the Tories.Where's the proof that wrong was done? There's none. Just questions and implications.Besides, what is the Toronto Star doing to find out what happened to the nine billion dollars that were mysteriously laundered through the mysterious, secretive, unti-recently-untouchable Liberal "Foundations"? What's the Toronto Star doing to discover Liberal wrongdoing, past and present?The Toronto Star went after Reform, the Canadian Alliance and the Conservatives when they were just the Opposition, while essentially giving the Liberals a free ride and a gazillion stay-out-of-jail passes.There's so many questions to be asked, so many implications to suggest, about the Liberals, the New Democrats and the Bloc. Why focus on only the Conservatives, whether in or out of power?Could it be that the Toronto Star is nothing more than a glorified, over-fancified, pretentious hard-left on-the-toilet-reader?
