"His views are completely at odds with the mainstream scientific opinion," said Colin Wilson, a planetary physicist at England's Oxford University.
"And they contradict the extensive evidence presented in the most recent IPCC [Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change] report." (Related: "Global Warming 'Very Likely' Caused by Humans, World Climate Experts Say" [February 2, 2007].)
"Amato Evan, a climate scientist at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, added that "the idea just isn't supported by the theory or by the observations."
But who cares about any of that? The Communist Russian lone mad scientist's views just happen to jibe with that other scientific scholar Rush Limbaugh so it must be true!

"With the Midwest taking the brunt of the economic crisis, my priority was to bring our region additional tools to create jobs and promote energy independence."
That sure sounds a lot better than a "bridge to nowhere" that would benefit a few hundred people at most. It sure sounds a lot better than spending $3.5 billion on Iraqi infrastructure, seeing half of that embezzled by Halliburton, and the other half blown up in a week.
Money to help Americans, a lot of Americans. How evil!
We need more bridges to nowhere in Iraq!

Obama's no Muslim, we've already established that. He's a liberal. Why should he hate pork?
(And why isn't Lee questioning the Muslimness of the avowed pork hater who treats women like sh.t unless they have hundreds of millions of dollars and want to support him? That guy wasn't even born in the U.S., unlike Obama.)

That guy wasn't even born in the > U.S., unlike Obama.) Whether Bama-Boy was born in the US or not, it still doesn't mean that he's a "natural born citizen"... Personally, I tend to agree with the definition that requires both parents to have been citizens... I would go even further and support a definition that would require both parents to also have been born here in the US... Of course, the problem with that definition is that it mean that Andrew Jackson couldn't have been president nor a few others who had a single parent who had immigrated here... I believe that all of them were US citizens at the time of the birth of their future-president son... The same cannot be said for Bama-Boy... The purpose of the "natural born citizen" clause was that the FFs wanted to ensure that anyone who might be the Commander in Chief of the Army did not have any ties to foreign governments (as might happen if one parent was a foreign citizen)... An argument could definitely be made that Bama-Boy has ties to a foreign government due to the fact that his father was never a citizen here...

Obama, apparently, just wanted people to think he wanted to stop the pork.

I guess he meant that the govenrment wouldn't ONLY be producing pork anymore.
And then, there's always this: ' Obama added that earmarks should "never, ever be traded for political favors." ' from http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/03/11/obama.earmarks/

My understanding is that he was born at Coco Solo Naval Air Station. It's located in Panama, but it is (or, at least, was), as I recall, a US naval base. As such, it is considered to be part of our country. If it is part of our country and he was born there, then how was he not born in the US?

With that rationale, there's obviously no problem letting the Guantanamo terrorist into U.S. prisons since they're already in the U.S.

He is definitely a citizen, but whether he is a "natural born" citizen is open to debate... In my opinion, he has quite a bit better legal standing on this matter than Bama-Boy, but it doesn't mean that he is a slam dunk "natural born" citizen either... As a strict contitutionalist, I tend to think that Bama-Boy does not meet the "natural born" citizen clause...
Looking at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_nationality_law
we see that: <quote> The U.S. Constitution was based upon the encyclopedic "The Law of Nations," (Droit des gens; ou, Principes de la loi naturelle appliqués à la conduite et aux affaires des nations et des souverains) a treatise written in 1758 by Swiss lawyer and diplomat Emerich de Vattel as a manual for how government should function. Book I, Chapter XIX, part 212, codified the definition of "Natural born citizen" as jus soli jus sanguinus: “The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.” </quote>
As such, Bama-Boy definitely does not qualify as a "natural born" citizen...
Of course, it is *possible* that the framers of the Constitution were really wanting to discrimiate against those born to Cesaerian sections, but somehow, I doubt it...

Just making excuses for more lies.
That's going to be a regular thing for the next 3 1/2 years.

Nah, Queen Sarah, America's first female President (Hilary screams), won't be needing all the excuses...
Gotta love Drudge:
4:15 AM: OBAMA SAYS FUTURE DOES NOT BELONG TO THOSE WHO GATHER ARMIES OR PLANT MISSILES...
7:45 AM: Suspected US missiles hit (Pakistani) militants...
When is Obama going to end this illegal, undeclared, imperialistic invasion of Pakistan?

You know how those bloodthirsty Libs are when they get in the Whitehouse.
Just another undeclared, illegal invasion of a non-Christian nation.
