Let's Get Global Warming Back on Track

Three cheers for Global Warming!

Nature is doing the shenanigans and messing with the Global Warming. As an example, this last month was the coldest April in the last 100 years.

The average temperature in April 2008 was 51.0 F. This was -1.0 F cooler than the 1901-2000 (20th century) average, the 29th coolest April in 114 years. The temperature trend for the period of record (1895 to present) is 0.1 degrees Fahrenheit per decade.

Now that's just not right. What about that extra beach Algore promised and I was looking forward to? And the warmer winters, which will save people's lives?

Will Global Warming Save Lives?

Global Warming: A study done for the British government says that global warming will kill thousands. It also says lives will be saved due to warmer winters. OK, which is it? Or is it neither? A report commissioned by Britain's Health Department says that one blistering hot summer between now and 2017 could kill more than 6,000 Britons. The panel of scientific experts that compiled the study believes the chance of that is 25%...The panel also said global warming will bring warmer winters, which will cut down on cold-related deaths in Britain.

So should we fear human-created climate change or embrace it?

Surprisingly, the BBC stood out as one media agent that took enough care to balance its coverage. Under the Web site headline "Global Warming 'May Cut Deaths,' " it reported 20,000 deaths are linked to the cold each year in the U.K. and that those deaths fell 3% a year from 1971 through 2003...

While we are still skeptical of global warming claims, let us for a moment speculate what warmer winters — and a warmer world in general — would bring in addition to fewer cold-related deaths:

• Longer growing seasons and more land available for agriculture, two factors that will yield greater crop production.

• A reduction in respiratory and cardiovascular diseases that tend to be higher during colder months.

• Increased precipitation that will help the world solve its water scarcity issues.

• Lower heating bills by $12 billion a year, the Energy Department reckons.

I hate the cold. Can we just get Global Warming back on track please?

B. Hussein Obama: Ask and Believe

Yes, you can. Ask Barry questions. And believe his answers. The first video is a great new commercial about questions Obama needs to answer (HT Hot Air). The second is a clip is something I posted ages ago but is worth a re-visit: Upon being asked what he would do with the military and national security, we get our answer. Obama assures us he will completely decimate our military capability. Because you, know, we're the problem in the world and the only way to save it is to make sure we're completely vulnerable. Just ask George Soros, he knows.

"I Want To Rip Bill Clinton's Eyes Out"

Would-be First Lady Michelle Obama illustrates how she's more Non-Mean and Morally Superior to all of you who simply want the Clintons to go away. She actually imagines doing physical harm to those with whom she disagrees. When you start thinking it might be a good idea to install padded walls in one of the White House rooms you know we're in trouble.

'I want to rip Bill Clinton's eyes out. Kidding! See, that's what gets me into trouble'

...She is often called 'regal' but her bearing is less royal than military: brisk, often stone-faced (even when making jokes), mordant. Obama works out like 'a gladiator', a friend has said. When people - they're almost always shorter - ask her to pose for pictures, instead of bending her knees she leans at the waist. Her smile is doled out sparingly, a privilege to be earned, rather than an icebreaker or an entreaty...

In Wisconsin, I asked her if she was offended by Bill Clinton's use of the phrase 'fairytale' to describe her husband's characterisation of his position on the Iraq war. At first, Obama responded with a curt 'No'. But, after a few seconds, she affected a funny voice. 'I want to rip his eyes out!' she said, clawing at the air with her fingernails. One of her advisers gave her a nervous look. 'Kidding!' Obama said. 'See, this is what gets me into trouble.'

Yes, Michelle, despite efforts to mask what you and your husband think and who you really are, being honest and exposing the truth will indeed always get you in trouble. As it should.

The Audacity of Not Keeping His Mouth Shut

Wright at the National Press Club

I know I'm not the only one not impressed by Obama's oddly late repudiation of Jeremiah Wright. After all, he knew of the “divisive and destructive,” “ridiculous,” “outrageous” and “wrong” paranoid and hate-based Wright comments long ago. When he first addressed the issue he further embraced Wright in the famous Gramma-Under-the-Bus speech. Now, when Wright had the audacity of not keeping his mouth shut, Barry decides that he can disown a man he suddenly realized his father-figure for all his adult life "gives comfort to those who prey on hate."

My question is this: If Barack Obama had no idea what his father-figure's intentions and beliefs were after two-decades plus of knowing him, how can we trust this man to be able to assess the intention of men like Ahmadinejad and Jong-Il? One of two things is happening here: Either Obama truly is clueless and completely unable to judge people, or he feels a kinship with those who are bitter, angry and hate this nation. In his own life we have his bitter and recriminating wife, Wright, and unrepentant terrorist Ayers. On the international scene Obama has already expressed an interest in establishing talkative, friendly relationships with the world's monsters.

In the meantime, word is slipping out from Wright's friends that he didn't intend to hurt Obama, he was just hurt and lashing out in the moment. I guess that makes everything okay. But it does make us question if it's a good idea to have a man in the White House who has such a vengeful and hateful father-figure in the wings always ready to strike out. Really, is this a soap opera we need in the White House during a time of war?

Father Michael Pfleger of St. Sabina Church said he has been speaking to both men as the events of the past 24 hours unfolded. He counseled Obama Tuesday morning, and while CBS 2 talked to him Tuesday evening, Rev. Wright called his cell phone. "I don't think he had any intention to hurt Barack. He loves Barack," Pfleger said. "I think the pain and the moment took over." That moment was in a place Pfleger called "a lion's den" – The National Press Club.

Yeah, the pain of not having the Man Who Would Be President be subservient and respectful to you? All of these people are reaping the rewards of living in a world of contempt and bitterness. What do they want from each other? Emotional healthy response from each other?

Whether his problem is a pathological inability to see bad people for who they are (and good people for that matter, too. His issue is very probably a Malignant Narcissistic lack of empathy, an inability to comprehend the feelings and motives of others), or identifying sympathetically with those who hate this country, we and he are in trouble.

The True Nature of Our Leftist Enemy

Screaming obscenities at First Lady Laura Bush and daughter Jenna while promoting their children's book, and then punching a girl in a wheelchair when he's told to stop it. I'd say the left is getting just a tad more mentally ill, and I'm sure Hillary is thrilled this is the new core of the Democrat constituency.

Bush Heckler Arrested After Punching Wheelchair-Bound Girl

A man heckling First Lady Laura Bush and daughter Jenna outside the 92nd Street Y was arrested after he punched a wheelchair-bound girl whose parents had told him to shut up, authorities said Wednesday.

German Talis, 22, was shouting obscenities at the Bushes, who were leaving the building Tuesday, when he crossed paths with Wendy and John Lovetro and their daughter Maureen, 18, who has cerebral palsy.

They had been in the audience to hear the Bushes talk about their children's book, "Read All About It."

"He began yelling about Iraq and Iran at Jenna Bush. She was waving at the crowd. I told the guy, 'What are you doing? Shut up. This is about a child and books,' " said John Lovetro. "He was unperturbed. I said, 'Get out of here! You're being a moron!' "

The next thing he knew, Talis was allegedly punching Maureen, a fan of the first lady since meeting her in 2004.

Rice Warned Carter Over Hamas

But, just like everyone else on the international scene, he ignored her and went about his business.

Rice says Carter was warned against meeting with Hamas

KUWAIT CITY (AP) - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Tuesday the Bush administration explicitly warned former President Jimmy Carter against meeting with members of Hamas, the Palestinian faction that controls the Gaza Strip and which is regarded by the U.S. as a terror group.

Rice, attending a regional meeting on Iraq's security and future, contradicted Carter's assertions that he never got a clear signal from the State Department. Rice told reporters that the U.S. thought the visit could confuse the message that the U.S. will not deal with Hamas.

"I just don't want there to be any confusion," Rice said. "The United States is not going to deal with Hamas and we had certainly told President Carter that we did not think meeting with Hamas was going to help" further a political settlement between Israel and the Palestinians.

The fact that there is a discussion at all, approved by us, between Israel and a terrorist organization is pathetic. But, of course, Carter and everyone else, continues to be played by these beasts.

Carter said top Hamas leaders told him during seven hours of talks in Damascus over the weekend that they are willing to live next to Israel [well heck yeah, it's so much easier to kill Jews when you're right next to them!], but a top Hamas official said the group would never outright recognize the Jewish state...

Carter won no specific concessions from Hamas. He defended his trip during remarks Monday in Jerusalem. He said he failed to convince the top Hamas boss, Khaled Mashaal, that he could gain international goodwill if he stopped rocket fire on Israel for one month.

"I did the best I could," Carter said. "They turned me down, and I think they're wrong."

Hey, Khaled, if you just stop murdering Jews for a month, and then go right back to it, everyone will feel so much better! And isn't it nice that Carter feels the need to make sure everyone knows that the keep-killing-innocent-people agenda of Hamas is "wrong." Because, you know, I'm sure Carter feels it's important for people to not think that killing Jews is a good thing. I suppose because in his depraved world to kill or not kill Jews is a such a funky gray moral area.

Obama: Don't Think, Be Happy

Maybe this explains the previous post's polling revelation.

From a day or so ago, but too priceless to let go. Mr. Obama apparently expects his supporters, and everyone else for that matter, to stop that pesky critical thinking about what he actually says and stands for and just be happy about the more vapid, esoteric 'importance' of his candidacy.

Some too 'obsessed' with what we say

PHILADELPHIA — You know a candidate is really feeling the heat when he starts complaining about the kitchen.

You know a candidate is having problems when he starts complaining about the process.

Wednesday night, in a debate here, Barack Obama complained a number of times about the presidential campaign process and how some people spend way too much time “obsessing” about some of the things he and others have actually said...

“I think what’s important is to make sure that we don’t get so obsessed with gaffes that we lose sight of the fact that this is a defining moment in our history,” Obama said.

He also said: “For us to be obsessed with this — these kinds of errors — I think is a mistake. And that’s not what our campaign has been about.”

That's right--it's been about empty, shallow rhetoric, unthinking emotionalism and reliance on mass hysteria.

Jimmy Carter Finally At Home

Carter's found brotherhood with Jew-hating terrorists for quite some time. This Cox & Forkum cartoon is from 2006.

In Syria, in bed with mass-murdering terrorists. Oh, keep in mind either Obama or Clinton will give this terrorist appeaser a role in a new Democrat admin. Perhaps Secretary of State? Ambassador to the UN? Nominated for the Supreme Court? National Security Advisor? Consider whom a candidate will surround himself with when deciding who to vote for. After all, Obama at least knows appointing Farrakhan to cabinet position would be bad (I know that's a leap) so why not Carter, the second-best choice when it comes to malicious, self-obsessed MalNar Jew-haters?

Former US president Carter in Syria for talks with Hamas supremo

Former US president Jimmy Carter met Syrian President Bashar al-Assad on Friday on the latest stop of a regional tour dominated by impending talks with the exiled leader of Hamas.

Carter held talks with Assad before preparing to defy US and Israeli opposition by meeting with the Damascus-based Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal.

Details on the meeting with Assad were not immediately available, but Carter's spokesman Rick Jafculca told AFP that the two were to discuss the peace process.

"The meeting between Carter and Meshaal will mainly focus on the Palestinian cause and means to deal with the Israeli occupation and its sanctions on the Palestinian people," senior Hamas official Mohammed Nasr told AFP.

How can this sort of 'meeting' not be considered a conspiracy to commit murder, especially when meeting with a death squad whose goal it is to wipe Israel off the map and kill Jews, and your goal is to discuss the "means to deal with the Israeli occupation"?

Hillary Gives Paul Revere a Sex-Change

As you know, while I won't be voting for her, I do hope she's the Dem nominee. Not because she'll be easier for McCain to beat (she won't) but because the Dem has a good chance to win, and if that happens at least we'll have a president in office who at least doesn't hate this country. That said, what the hell is wrong with her? Actually, I may have answer. I am growing convinced that the woman is utterly and completely self-destructive. Each day either previous gaffes are made worse, or new ones are introduced. No one can be this ridiculously inept unless there is a subconscious desire for failure. And she just may get it.

Paul Revere. Manhood intact. Not amused.

Case in point, she's just given a sex-change to Paul Revere. Just a few days after comparing herself to a fictional boxer who loses his fight in the end (genius!) she declared today during a speech at the Burbank, CA airport that she feels like "Paulette Revere." And why does she feel like an emasculated Revere? Because, well, read it for yourself.

Clinton: 'I Feel Like Paulette Revere'

"Senator Obama has been very timid and very unenthusiastic with doing anything with the economy," Clinton, D-N.Y., said at a tarmac press conference in Burbank, California on Thursday, "I feel like Paulette Revere -- the recession is coming, the recession is coming!"

The candidate, who was outraised by rival Obama, D-Ill., 2-1 in March, and will soon release her tax returns, was asked if she felt like her campaign was in financial crisis.

"We pay our bills," Clinton said. "We obviously have to scrutinize them and ask hard questions about them but, you know, we are doing fine. We have the money to compete we are doing everything we need to do to keep the campaign going."

So I guess that asking questions and scrutinizing bills explains why she was behind paying the medical insurance premiums for her staffers? Or was it sniper fire that kept her campaign from writing those checks?

Perhaps her call while riding horseback through the countryside should be "The creditors are coming! the creditors are coming!"

It doesn't stop there folks.

Hillary the Fabulist=Photoshop of the Day

Delightful Pic of the Day courtesy of Peep Kim.

Hillary, I am disturbed to report, very well may be a Fabulist. This is pretty serious, and quite different from simply disagreeing with someone on policy or style. It's not even really as simple as lying about something; it's making up a scenario out of whole cloth. Not spinning or shading the truth, but making making up a story completely. Most of us were wondering if she was capable of being a Fabulist with the Bosnian airport landing fantasy. This event, covered by hundreds of journalists and witnessed by thousands of others, including reporters, troops and government officials, as well as a certain comedian and guitar player, yet she described something that not only didn't happen, but was unrelated to the experience entirely. Now we have to ask, what is she capable of when it comes to events that have no witnesses?

New York Magazine gives us some background on Hillary as Fabulist, as does ABC News. Here's a bit o the New York piece. Truly, I felt Hillary was at least an acceptable mess and my preferred Dem nominee. Now McCain is looking better all the time.

Fabulist Hillary Clinton Gives Margaret Seltzer a Run for Her Money

When the National Archives released more than 11,000 pages of Hillary Clinton's daily schedule during her First Lady days last week, the press was pissy because much of it was heavily redacted, and boring to boot. "She received a gift basket sometime between 3:45 and 4:35 p.m., if all went according to schedule," the Washington Post sniped about the schedule that Newsday described as "bland, sanitized." Several days later, though, they've refocused (perhaps recalling that in a post-Spitzer-scandal age, Monica's sloppy sub-desk blow jobs are just sad and gross). As it turns out, Hillary may have a gift for embellishment! By which we mean flat-out invention of the whole-cloth variety.

Oh wait! I am so sorry. Hillary did see fire in Bosnia.

Snippery!

Obama's Lack of Respect for the National Anthem

Now makes a bit more sense with the Jeremiah Wright background. If you haven't seen it before, here's video of him refusing to place his hand over his heart for the anthem. It's an easy thing to do, and reflects a very certain respect for this nation. To not engage in such a small gesture of respect is petty and illustrates a remarkable contempt. Interestingly, it also seems he feels the need to protect his gonads from the anthem. Yeah, let's elect this guy.

Obama and His Racist, America-Hating "Pastor"

The very cozy Obama and Wright.

**Television programming note**: Gateway Pundit is noting that Major Garrett will have Barack Obama tonight on Hannity & Colmes/Fox News to discuss the Wright situation. They also have the full collection of Wright video spew. Perhaps now we know the real reason the Obama campaign has been desperate to paint Hillary and her supporters as 'racist'--to distract from their own ugly, racist underbelly.

After working feverishly to ignore the extraordinary racist, hate-filled comments by Barack Hussein Obama's "pastor", Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., they finally have been forced to admit he exist. Initially, Obama refused to outright condemn comments that ranged from urging black Americans to sing "God damn America," to proposing the theory that America engineered the AIDS virus to genocide people of color and deliberately distributes drugs to me of color, and that America is a terrorist nation. When you hear these remarkably paranoid assertions Michelle Obama's paranoid and America-hating rants make a lot more sense. After all, this is the man who has been Obama's mentor for 20 years, married the Obamas, and baptized their daughters (which means those two bright little girls are exposed to this racist, hate-based insanity.

Ron Kessler, who is associated with the McCain campaign, provided an opinion piece in today's WSJ, the first national newspaper to address this remarkable relationship between the leading Democrat candidate and a hate-monger:

Obama and the Minister

In a sermon delivered at Howard University, Barack Obama's longtime minister, friend and adviser blamed America for starting the AIDS virus, training professional killers, importing drugs and creating a racist society that would never elect a black candidate president.

The Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., pastor of Mr. Obama's Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, gave the sermon at the school's Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel in Washington on Jan. 15, 2006...Mr. Wright thundered on: "America is still the No. 1 killer in the world. . . . We are deeply involved in the importing of drugs, the exporting of guns, and the training of professional killers . . . We bombed Cambodia, Iraq and Nicaragua, killing women and children while trying to get public opinion turned against Castro and Ghadhafi . . . We put [Nelson] Mandela in prison and supported apartheid the whole 27 years he was there. We believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God." [...]

As for Mr. Wright's repeated comments blaming America for the 9/11 attacks because of what Mr. Wright calls its racist and violent policies, Mr. Obama has said it sounds as if the minister was trying to be "provocative."

Hearing Mr. Wright's venomous and paranoid denunciations of this country, the vast majority of Americans would walk out. Instead, Mr. Obama and his wife Michelle have presumably sat through numerous similar sermons by Mr. Wright.

Indeed, Mr. Obama has described Mr. Wright as his "sounding board" during the two decades he has known him. Mr. Obama has said he found religion through the minister in the 1980s. He joined the church in 1991 and walked down the aisle in a formal commitment of faith.

The title of Mr. Obama's bestseller "The Audacity of Hope" comes from one of Wright's sermons. Mr. Wright is one of the first people Mr. Obama thanked after his election to the Senate in 2004. Mr. Obama consulted Mr. Wright before deciding to run for president. He prayed privately with Mr. Wright before announcing his candidacy last year.

Mr. Obama obviously would not choose to belong to Mr. Wright's church and seek his advice unless he agreed with at least some of his views. In light of Mr. Wright's perspective, Michelle Obama's comment that she feels proud of America for the first time in her adult life makes perfect sense.

The WSJ piece follows ABC News and their coverage of Wright stating we were to blame for 9/11 and that blacks should condemn the United States. Finally, of Obama and his racist mentor. Finally, Obama responds with a little fluff piece, on the lefty hate blog Huffington Post of all places, which once again waxes on about how great the 'pastor' is but Obama rejects his comments. He skips over the intense relationship they have, including the fact that it was Wright with whom Obama consulted when he was deciding whether or not to run for president, and then "prayed" with him as he decided to do so. Obama also thanked Wright prominently when he first won his senate seat. Yet Obama claims, absurdly, that Wright was never a mentor, and that he never, ever heard this man say anything at all ever close to what has been revealed in the past few weeks.
Yeah, sure.

This last week has been rather priceless--here we have Obama and his minions still pushing the absurdity of the entire Hillary campaign as racist, including the smear against Geraldine Ferraro. Ferraro leaves the Clinton campaign, and HiIllary apologizes to every black person on Earth for everything that ever happened. Yet the stench of racism and hate emanates from only one place--the Barack Obama campaign, his closest friend and adviser, and arguably from Obama himself and his wife. Yet no one has apologized. In fact, big news has been made of the fact thatWright stepped down from one Obama campaign position he held yet the Obama campaign insists he will stay on as a "spirtual adviser." I guess that would be the Racist, Hate America First fort of spirituality.

The next question needs to be, does Hillary and Co. have what it takes to demand an apology from Obama and his minions for the racism and hate they've been spewing? Will she demand Obama apologize for Wright, and that Wright be banished from his campaign entirely? If she doesn't have the cajones to face down a bunch of political thugs and a depraved, paranoid, how can we expect her to deal with the world's tyrants?

This is a test for Hillary. I noted weeks ago, that with all we detest about th Clintons, it's safe to say they do not hate this country. Now we know the Obamas truly do.

« Close It

Spitzer Update

Yes, we know who "Kristen" really is, and no, she's a not a mid-to late 20s supermodel genius who was bored with the world and decided to become a prostitute because that's what she enjoys most in life. Instead, her alleged background reflects the experience of most prostitutes--drug use, abuse in childhood, homelessness. Generally a young women leading a desperate life. And she's 22, just a few years older than Spitzer's oldest daughter. This is, on so many levels, not a "private matter" on Spitzer's part, and illustrative of a deeply rotten core.

In the meantime, Silda Wall Spitzer's friends have noted Silda's attitude toward Hilllary a decade ago when the sexual compulsive she's married to was revealed. Let's just say it's a Silda that's a tad different than the one we've seen the past few days.

'THAT WOULD NEVER BE ME' ; WIFE SCOFFED AT HILL STANDING BY CHEATIN' BILL

March 13, 2008 -- A decade ago, as she watched then-First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton humiliated by her intern-loving hubby, Silda Wall Spitzer made clear her intentions if Eliot ever cheated.

"That would never be me. I'd be gone," Silda told friends, a pal told The Post.

But Silda, for the second time in a week, donned a tailored designer skirt suit and appeared to be standing by her hooker-loving hubby yesterday, even as the fairy tale has soured behind closed doors.

Funny how things change. Thanks Silda. I'm sure your daughters also appreciate you being your hooker-loving husband's prop. We certainly don't want to send a message that using a prostitute close to your own daughter's age would at all affect your marital image. Can't have that.

Monica Need Not Apply

Just when you thought it was safe to go to back into the bathroom.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Idaho Senator Larry Craig is currently seeking intern applications for the summer term, which runs from May to August. The application deadline is March 15, however if more time is needed for the application process, please contact Senator Craig's office for an extension.

"Interns have the chance to be an essential part of a working congressional office," said Craig. "They participate in the legislative process as well as ensure that constituent services run smoothly. For those interested in politics, it is an incredible opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at how our government functions while serving the people of Idaho."

Barack Be Daddy. Very, Very Strict Daddy!

And Michelle should know. And I'm sure if Barry doesn't kick your behind, she will. After all, just like the country in general, you haven't made her proud, either. And boy, do you have it coming! From NRO's Campaign Spot, reporting on another gem from Michelle Obama.

"Barack Will Never Allow You to Go Back to Your Lives as Usual."

Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed.

Click through the link, Geraghty has the actual audio. While Barry may be the super secret careful politician who knows how to not say things, Michelle may be his Achilles Heel. Funny what happens when someone doesn't know they should at least pretend to not have contempt for you.

UPDATE:

Michelle has apparently received the "how to spin a remark that reveals your contempt for America" memo.

OJ Simpson's Girlfriend Hospitalized With 'Severe Head Injury'

She apparently "keeps falling down." You know, like how Nicole kept throwing herself onto his fist. And how she fell down on that knife in 1994 so many damn times.

O.J. Simpson's Girlfriend Hospitalized With 'Severe Head Injury'

O.J. Simpson's girlfriend Christie Prody was hospitalized Tuesday in Miami for what police are calling a "severe head injury," Entertainment Tonight has reported.

An anonymous caller reported a woman falling and was taken by Fire Rescue to Baptist Hospital of Miami with a severe head injury, according to a police report obtained by the television show.

Prody had been "intoxicated and always falling down" during a trip this month to San Antonio, a witness told police, according to the report. She "went out for breakfast only to be found later that day in the hospital," a witness told police, according to ET.

Me, too!

Narcissists in History

Trivia by Maynard

The Republicans had launched a long, bloody war. The Democrats advocated a negotiated settlement that would respect the independence of our adversaries. The conflict was going badly, and it looked like the Republicans would lose the next election. There were riots and protests; New York was brought to a standstill. Rebellious opponents of the Administration were jailed, in open defiance of their Constitutional rights. An actor worked to effect regime change in Washington. Morale was low and the economy was shaky. Money was in short supply, so the government printed more.

(This was the Civil War, by the way.)

Coins were hoarded, so Congress authorized various new denominations of fractional currency (that is, paper money worth less than a dollar). The 5-cent note was to display a portrait of William Clark (of the historical Lewis and Clark expedition).

William Clark looked like this:

But the 5-cent bills that went into circulation, as Congress eventually discovered to its surprise and chagrin, looked like this:

Lincoln's Superintendent of the National Currency Bureau (now the B.E.P.) was a man named Spencer M. Clark. It seems that Superintendent Clark, upon seeing an order to honor the historical Clark, thought it meant he was supposed to put his own picture on the money.

Congress screamed, but it was too late. Millions had been printed. (You can see them on eBay.)

Thus do narcissists pass into history, while the rest of us are forgotten.

There's a lesson in there somewhere, but I hesitate to dwell on it.

O.J. Simpson Held on Bail Violation

O.J. Simpson is in custody in Florida on allegations that he violated terms of his release on bail by calling one of his co-defendants in a Las Vegas armed robbery case, a court official said Friday.

Prosecutors allege that Simpson, identifying himself as "Miguel," telephoned Clarence "C.J." Stewart on Nov. 16 and expressed frustration with Stewart's testimony at a preliminary hearing, court spokesman Michael Sommermeyer said.

That was two days after a Las Vegas justice of the peace ruled that Simpson, Stewart and another co-defendant should stand trial on 12 charges, including kidnapping and robbery...Simpson was to go before a judge Wednesday...A bail bondsman at You Ring We Spring bail bonds in North Las Vegas declined to comment.

Good News: Robin Wright and Sean Penn Divorcing

His reputation regarding his treatment of women has never been good. I've watched that beautiful woman's face change through their marriage, and it wasn't a glow of happiness. Now their children are in their mid-teens, perhaps she finally felt she could get out with the least amount of harm to their children.

Good for her. At dinner tonight, have a toast to her future without that MalNar Ball-and-Chain Sean Penn.

Sean Penn and Robin Wright Penn Divorcing

Sean Penn and wife Robin Wright Penn are divorcing, their rep, Mara Buxbaum, confirms to PEOPLE exclusively. No other details were immediately available. The couple, who've been married 11 years, have two children together, Hopper Jack, 14, and Dylan Frances, 16.

Oh, Defamer has what they say may be video of their break-up fight. Hmmm....

Jew-Hater Redgrave Funds Gitmo Terrorist Release in London

Terrorist Jamil El Banna. Something tells me he won't be applying for that mall Santa job.

Here's a blast from the past: Marxist, actor and Jew-hater Vanessa Redgrave actually made the release of this monster possible. I suppose she feels especially safe because no one in her family takes buses in Israel or in London, or eats at falafel and pizza parlors in Jerusalem. How nice for them. Why am I not surprised that she feels a protective kinship with the terrorists at Gitmo?

Ex-Guantanamo detainees freed in London

LONDON (AFP) — Two British residents just released from the US-run Guantanamo Bay prison camp were let out on bail Thursday pending extradition hearings in London, while another was freed without charge.

Jamil El Banna, 45, who spent more than four years in the camp, was detained on a European arrest warrant after arriving back Wednesday night with two other British residents from the detention centre in Cuba.

"I'm tired. I want to go home and see my children," said the long-bearded El Banna, who is wanted by authorities in Spain. Later television pictures showed him hugging his children after returning by taxi to his home. [Awww, how special considering so many men aren;t able to hug their children because they were blown up by his bosses in al-Qaida...] ...

The hearings at City of Westminster Magistrates Court were told that Spanish authorities alleged that El Banna and Deghayes were members of an Al-Qaeda cell called the Islamic Alliance...

Meanwhile, Melanie Cumberland, a lawyer for the Spanish authorities, told the court that Deghayes was "a highly committed member of Al-Qaeda" and was "willing to participate in terrorist activities."

One of the financial guarantors for the men was said to be the human rights activist and actress Vanessa Redgrave. She declined to comment on the financial backing but said outside court she was "very happy" to be able to help El Banna's family.

"Guantanamo Bay is a concentration camp. It is a disgrace that these men have been kept there all these years and today Jamil will be back home and justice has been done," she said.

Funny, it's apparently the one "concentration camp" ever in the world where the detainees gain an average of 20 pounds each, as they fight over which DVD to watch and who will be on what soccer team.

Vanessa Redgrave, human rights campaigner

And here, for a piece with Sixty Minutes, she insists she's not a Jew-hater, despite, as one example, that little dance she did with the PLO and a Kalashnikov rifle. Funny, she insists she wants to fight fascism everywhere, yet condemns America defending herself and supports those who were captured on the Afghanistan battlefield, and whom even the Spanish believe are al-Qaida terrorist operatives.

Or, as is usually the case, we have to look at what people, like Redgrave, do not what they say. There we find the truth of the matter.

Huckabee: Carter With a Little Clinton Mixed In

Yeah, exactly what we need in the White House, another pandering, manipulative Tax and Spend, undisciplined 'man of faith.' Huckabee represents the worst of Clinton manipulation and spin, along with Carteresque incompetence projecting his own personal lack of discipline as he tries to tax or ban everything that moves.

On this segment from Hannity and Colmes from last night, Huckabee asks if we have no decency bringing up his horrific involvement in paroling murderers and rapists, then tries to wiggle out of his extraordinary role getting one rapist freed who eventually murdered a woman. This is a priceless exchange and exposes the Huckabee for the shallow, self-obsessed MalNar he really is. Just remember Carter when you hear that falsely soft, little Southern delivery because that thing he's holding behind your back is a shiv...

By the way, the Dems understandably want Huckabee to be the Repub nominee. Why? Because if the race were between Huckabee and Clinton, even I would vote for Clinton. That's how bad this freak really is, and they know it.

For those of you unaware of how Huckabee is Carter redeux, take a gander at the Club for Growth's exposure of his depraved support for taxing everything that exists:

Romney, in the meantime, hits Huckabee in a new campaign ad for his untenable position on illegal aliens. It could have been stronger, but the fact is Huckabee has flip-flopped on the issue simple because he knows being honest about his position will hurt him at the polls. No matter what he says now, Huckabee is an Open Border Liberal who happens to be a 'man of faith.' He is Jimmy Carter with some Clinton thrown in.

OJ Simpson Ordered To Stand Trial

Again. This time, remarkably, no one was killed. So far, Las Vegas looks like it knows what it's doing. Let's hope they can get right what Marcia Clark and her gang so pathetically screwed up 13 years ago.

O.J. Simpson to Stand Trial in Vegas

(LAS VEGAS)— O.J. Simpson must face trial on kidnapping, armed robbery and other charges stemming from a suspected sports memorabilia heist, a justice of the peace ruled Wednesday, despite fierce defense attacks that characterized prosecution witnesses as con artists and crooks out for a buck.

Justice of the Peace Joe M. Bonaventure ruled that all charges in the 12-count complaint would remain against Simpson and co-defendants Clarence "C.J." Stewart and Charles "Charlie" Ehrlich. The case stemmed from a Sept. 13 confrontation in a casino hotel room from which Simpson and a group of men are accused of stealing items from two sports memorabilia dealers.

"This is what we expected," Simpson told The Associated Press before he left the courtroom. "If I have any disappointment, it's that I wish a jury was here. As always, I rely on the jury system."

Spoken like a true killer who beat the system. Here's to the Butcher of Brentwood having a distinctively different experience, and outcome, this time.

Newsflash: Oprah Cried for a Whole Half Hour

I'm just wondering how child sexual abuse crying gets timed out at 30 minutes. I suppose when you're really busy, crying for a whole collection of thirty 1-minutes seems like an awfully long time. I do have a feeling, however, that the girls allegedly abused at Oprah's girls' school in South Africa have known, and will know, what it's like to cry for a heck of a lot longer.

'Momma bear' Oprah steps in

Johannesburg - Oprah Winfrey said on Monday she wept for half an hour when she heard a dormitory matron had been accused of abusing students at her school for disadvantaged girls, and promised to "clean house" starting with the headmistress.

The talk show host said officials at the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls hid facts from her and told students to "put on happy faces" and not complain to her.

Oprah spoke to reporters in South Africa by satellite from the United States hours after the accused dormitory matron appeared in court near Johannesburg and was granted bail.

Tiny Virginia Makopo, 27, said she was "not guilty" of 13 charges of indecent assault, assault and criminal injury committed against six students aged 13-15 and a 23-year-old fellow dormitory matron.

Oprah said: "When I first heard about it, I spent about a half hour going around my house crying," calling it "one of most-devastating experiences of my life".

Oops, it might not have been whole thirty minutes, just 'about.' Should I now wonder if it was wrong of me to cry longer during one of my 'most-devastating' experiences? I mean, maybe 30 minutes is enough, that way you don't have to miss a whole TV show or a whole lunch hour, you could finish the New York Times crossword puzzle and maybe you can even get 30 more minutes of sleep if you keep your upsetness short.

I'll wait for Oprah's guidance on this issue of compassion, character and empathy. Because, after all, when you watch the clock 30-minutes feels like a lifetime.

The Second Temple Wasn't There

A post by Maynard

The former mufti of Jerusalem claims there never was a Jewish temple on the Temple Mount, and so the Western Wall (the "Wailing Wall", generally accepted as a remnant of the Second Temple and one of the holiest sites of Judaism) was really part of a mosque. From a Jerusalem Post article:

"There was never a Jewish temple on Al-Aksa [the mosque compound] and there is no proof that there was ever a temple," he told The Jerusalem Post via a translator. "Because Allah is fair, he would not agree to make Al-Aksa if there were a temple there for others beforehand. The wall is not part of the Jewish temple. It is just the western wall of the mosque. There is not a single stone with any relation at all to the history of the Hebrews."

Palestinian leaders, most notably the late Yasser Arafat, have consistently denied Jewish claims to the Mount.

A summary of accepted history:

The First Temple was built by King Solomon in the 10th century BCE, and destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BCE. The Second Temple was built 70 years later, enlarged during the first century BCE by Herod, and destroyed by the Romans in the year 70. The Dome of the Rock and Al-Aksa Mosque were constructed on the Temple Mount site in the late seventh century.

Jerusalem is claimed as a Muslim holy city, but this is also a matter of historical revisionism. Jerusalem is never mentioned in the Koran (in contrast to hundreds of references in the Hebrew Bible), and it was generally ignored by Arab leaders while it was under Arab rule from 1948 to 1967.

The Temple Mount mosque was named the "Farthest Mosque" as a matter of political expediency. The Koran speaks of Mohammed's "Night Journey" on a flying horse from Mecca to the masjid al aksa (the farthest temple). However a geographic loca
