Green activists 'are keeping Africa poor'.
Speaking before a keynote lecture tonight to the British Association for the Advancement of Science, of which he is president, Sir David said that the slow pace of African development was linked directly to Western influence. “I'm going to suggest, and I believe this very ...

He believes that Montanans are ready for a parliamentary government.
Me, I'm still waiting for so-called non-partisan progressive organizations to endorse the truly progressive candidate.
That, and Godot.
(I think I've used that line already, but dammit, it works.)

There's an old saw about American politics: Keep Democrats out of the boardroom and Republicans out of the bedroom.
I'd like to add a third option to that one. "Keep Liberal Arts majors out of energy policy."
No, really. Leave it to people who actually understand it, can do ...

Everybody Panic!!
So, the Clark Fork Coalition (an angelic non-profit) came up with this report that Global Warming is Very Real™, and a Huge Threat™, etc., etc.
Get this, though. They used 50 years of data to make their extrapolations.
50 years!! Out of 4 billion.
Unless I fat-fingered my calculator, in ...

Since our sinestra pals here in Montana spill so many electrons bitching about Max Baucus, I would think that they would be positively elated that a truly progressive candidate is in the race.
Too bad he has an "R" behind his name, huh?
I mean, here's your chance to prove that you ...

So, I'm enjoying a quiet evening at home when the phone rings.
Now, let me just say that I am really turning into a crank in my old age. I remember the days before Caller ID when you felt obligated to answer the phone if it rang.
Now I don't. ...

Colby Natale has made the shocking -- SHOCKING -- discovery that I host websites, specifically The Hammond Report.
He's absolutely right. I do. And sometimes I help them get up and running. And sometimes I help people out with technical issues.
I also host Parkway Rest Stop, KC Council ...

I know it's like a.) beating a dead horse or b.) pointing out the obvious, but for all the caterwauling and bitching about out of state money, the sinestra is strangely silent when the out of state money comes from their fellow travelers.
A quick perusal of the SEIU's records from ...

James has a great post over at 2nd Grade Bike Rack (you should ask him the story behind that name one of these days) talking about "Exhibit 32" from the last Environmental Quality Council. He wasn't able to post it at Blogspot, but he was kind enough to ...

One of the major beefs I have with education is that higher education seems to want to spend money on bullshit, and not things like, oh, math, science, engineering, economics and things of that nature.
And, being a bullshitter myself, I do consider myself somewhat a connoisseur of male bovine fecal ...

After so many years of candidates from the right being pounded for their various pastors, isn't it delicious to see the shoe on the other foot?
That's a rhetorical question, but I'll answer it: Yes. Yes it is.
While we're speaking of race (sort of), I'm ashamed to live in ...

It's taken as an article of faith on the left that conservatives and Republicans pretty much mindlessly follow whatever the radio pundits tell them to do.
How, then, to explain the emergence of McCain as the presumptive Republican nominee, against the apparent consternation of said hosts?

There's an election or something going on today?
For having the word "politics" in the title of this thing, I feel compelled to say something, but as it turns out, I couldn't say it any better than this.
Seems like the big question will be if the Paul-Bearers can carry the day ...

Relax citizen! There is no need to worry about your thermostat!
We will take care of it for you!
Why don't we just put radio-controlled light switches in, while we're at it. Let's not forget our ovens, which draw quite a bit of juice. And what about our fridges ...
