THE WEDNESDAY GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

What a beautiful day.Isabel and Olivia helped Grandma Pistol make red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting.We packed a lunch and went to the playground so they could burn off some energy.Kids seem to have a bottomless reservoir of it.

Yesterday was Miss Olivia’s 5th birthday.It has been documented that her scream can shatter crystal.

Yesterday I thanked the Good Lord for granting me another day to share with two of my best buddies

Miss Isabel,8,and Miss Olivia,5.When I go into the voting booth,I’ll remember that every cent they will ever make has been already spent by a worthless Kenyan poser.They sure  deserve better.

Another blow to Al Gore’s Bull

I just watched a Nova documentary called Arctic Dinosaurs that included some scientific findings that cracked me up.

One of the scientists featured in the film is Robert Spicer, a British paleobotanist. (He studies fossilized plants.) He explained that, in hot tropical climates, the edges of leaves are smooth, while in colder climates, they tend to have serrated edges. In hot climates, moisture evaporates from leaves, causing water to rise up through the roots. In cold weather, evaporation ceases. To avoid starvation, plants in colder climates have little glands on the edges of the leaves that pump water out and keep critical circulation going. These glands make the leaf edges jagged.

Spicer got the bright idea that he might be able to use his plant fossils to figure out what the climate was like when dinosaurs roamed. First, he collected a ton of modern leaf and climate data from more than 170 locations around the world. From these, he was able to create a statistical model that accurately predicts, to within a degree or two Celsius, what the average annual temperature of a given place is (or was) by the proportion of toothed leaves and non-toothed leaves in the environment.

Neat, huh? By examining his extensive collection of ancient arctic leaf fossils, Spicer demonstrated that, when dinosaurs were living on the North Slope of Alaska, the average annual temperature there was about 30 degrees warmer than it is today. So I’m thinking, “Continental drift, people!” but the joke was on me. According to geologists, at the end of the age of dinosaurs, the North Slope of Alaska was not further south. It was further north!

Yet it was 30 degrees warmer and enjoyed a great diversity of plant, insect and animal species.

Think about it. The Gore-Bull Warmists shriek about the Catastrophic Consequences of even a small rise in average global temperature, right? But back when Alaska was 30 degrees warmer, it was much MORE hospitable to life than it is now.

Petition for Purple Heart

On June 1, 2009, Private William “Andy” Long was killed and Private Quinton Ezeagwula was wounded outside a Little Rock Army recruitment center.

Despite the fact that the shooter said his actions were motivated by his commitment to Muslim jihad, the Obama “Justice” Department decided to classify it as a street crime, which made Andy and Quinton ineligible for Purple Heart medals.

The Obama Defense Department similarly refused to classify the Fort Hood shooting as a terrorist act. The 9/11 Pentagon victims got Purple Hearts, but hey … Dubya was in charge then.

In 2012, Congress attempted to rectify these shameful situations by including Purple Heart citations in the Defense Appropriations Act.

Obama said he’d veto the bill if they didn’t take the medals out.

BHO cuts AZ from the herd

The Obama Administration has been spinning the Arizona SCOTUS case as a question of state vs. federal jurisdictions. But clearly it was never anything of the kind. Arizona never tried to make any state laws that contradicted federal laws. They tried to make state laws that would allow them to enforce federal laws that federal officials were not enforcing.

Now that the Supreme Court has unanimously supported Arizona’s right to do this, the Obama administration is doubling down on the whole not-enforcing-the-law thing. Basically, it’s a giant neener neener from the Obama White House to the Supreme Court, the governor, legislators and citizens of Arizona, all of whom overwhelming supported the law.

The Obama Administration treats North Korea and Iran better than this.

I like the “overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution” part.

The law that Obama the “Constitutional Scholar” declared “Poorly Conceived” is the one the Supreme Court just unanimously upheld.
