Kidding Around - In the good way

YOOTS of Note

Lefthandgirl?

This is something to be happy about.  I don't know how old righthandgirl Cynthia from Texas is, but she's young, smart and politically engaged (watch her most recent video above).  Have you heard of Kristen Byrnes? Regular contributor to this blog Fred W clued me in.. “ Hello Rodger 15-year old Byrnes Outsmarts Nasa's Global Warming Alarmist   Interesting article/posts referencing a report by a 15 year old young lady   http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1846653/posts I was a Military Meteorologist. She as right on in her report. In the last 30 years, with the closure of military bases and cutbacks at NWS, much data is now submitted from back yard weather watchers and most of it is garbage. Garbage in, Garbage out. Fred W ” Wow. Ponder the Maunder contains her body of work.  Maunder.  Doesn't that describe Al Gore to a fare-thee-well?   In her first paper Kristen dissected Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth."  Her just published follow-up {Houston, we have a problem] examines his relationship with his science guru, Senior Scientist at NASA GISTS, James Hansen. You may remember Hansen accusing the Bush administration of trying to muzzle him about his views on global warming,  when  pretty much the exact opposite is true.  There's an old joke I've used before here, about the CEO interviewing for a new Head Accountant.  Applicants were asked "How much is 1+1?" until finally one answered correctly, "How much do you want it to be?" and was hired.  That's pretty much the state of our science today.  Federal grant money is disproportionately given to scientists willing to work backward from a "politically correct" answer to the supporting "science" Hansen is among the sellouts. Young Miss Byrnes exposes his links to Gore, and leftist money.  Mr. Hansen is now Kristen Byrnes' bitch. Finally we have the veteran of this no-brat pack, Ian Schwartz, the "Political Teen."   Ian had a blog as the political teen, then opened a video blog "Expose the Left, " which evolved into Michelle Malkin's  Hot Air. Ian has retired from HA and started a new blog, also video-centric,  at IanSchwartz.com. But wait!  That's not all!  Last week over breakfast my seven-year old grandson was able to explain to me why Ty Cobb is his favorite baseball player.  Ty Cobb!  The country is in far better shape than we might think from watching the adults behaving badly.
