Pht - conspiracy theories about voter fraud abound from any side that is the losing side. Kerry lost big time, and a few machines in one state aren't enough to whitewash the fundamental reality that he was a 3 time loser. As far as voter ID is concerned - I stand by my opinion that the ONLY PEOPLE that could

My objections to wind power are more based on the fact that it is incredibly expensive, and terribly inefficient. Almost every other form of power is a better choice than wind power, and that includes the ridiculous boondoggle that is solar energy. If the Aussies want green energy, then they should invest in nuclear

Every little bit helps I suppose. But even if they increased perfomance 10X as this article suggests, then wind would still be far more expensive and far less efficient than any coal plant. Wind will never be anything but a 'supplement' to real forms of energy such as fossil and nuclear.

Yet another example of journalistic mis-representation of science. For the article to say that diet drinks are BAD for you is a complete lie. That is not what the data says. There is nothing in the internals that says diet sodas are bad for you. The ONLY thing this so-called 'controversial' report does is codify

The firing of Juan Williams. The 'donation' scandal where they fired a guy for antisemitism. Vivian Schiller resignation. I tend to lump PBS and NPR in the same bucket, which I suppose is arguable though. To me they're two arms of the same entity.

This.

Ding ding ding! Taxes of course. Take electric cars as an example. Do you really think that governments are going to actually (GASP) learn to do without revenue they are used to collecting? Of course not. So that's why in areas where electric cars are making headway, the governments are moving to "mileage taxes"

Cost of Idiotic Government Mandated Scare Tactic Program? Hundreds of millions of dollars.

Uh - anyone that thinks the BBC or PBS is "unbiased" has a pretty skewed perspective of what "biased" is. BBC routinely skews their news reports. PBS has been involved in scandal after scandal of definitively proven bias and has had to fire several executives and its own president for bias. As far as Al Gore is

Come on folks. A taser gun is only a "lethal" weapon in the same sense that a pillow is... Which is to say it is only lethal under highly unusual circumstances. It doesn't matter if a taser hits you in the eye, skull, arm, leg, chest or groin. Electricity is only fatal when it puts 6 miliamps in a direct circuit

First thing I notice is that unless you're holding on to the 'handle' the thing is going to fly apart. Second is that the lids are going to get squeezed off when pressure is applied. Third is that the thing won't work at all unless the cups have a required circumference. Fourth is that it is a bad idea that

"Sounds to me more like religion than environmentalism"

"The alternative is leaving the problem..."

Uh - did you guys even READ this nutball's crazy manifesto? How can anyone who is sane/not an idiot possibly agree with diddly this moron thinks? He's an environmentisl whacko, and you guys didn't even bother mentioning it. Here's a few gems from this waste of skin... Forced sterilization, immigrants are 'anchor

I know there are some people who REALLY want all these 'green' ideas to do well. But if 'green' houses, cars, skyscrapers, and all that other stuff really worked then people would be doing them already. They aren't, because 'green' stuff are less efficient, don't supply enough power, and they are about 5X more
