If You Can't Beat Them . . . Rob Them!

In September of 2008, I sat in the Eaglebrook Saloon in Norfolk, MA with about a dozen or so friends. As we discussed the upcoming election, one of our group (you know who you are Tom) needled me about a poll showing Obama moving ahead of McCain. I told him that I was not surprised, and that I felt certain Obama would win. Shocked, he asked me if I was serious. I said I was, and that within six months, America would have the biggest case of buyer's remorse in history. He laughed off my prediction, but slap my grits and call me Nostradamus - I was right.

It started with the Tea Parties over the summer, was evident in New Jersey and Virginia in September, and with the grace of God, will manifest itself tomorrow in the biggest political upset since America overthrew King George III in the first place. Win or lose, the simple fact that this race was anything other than a blowout win for a Democrat in Massachusetts running to replace Ted Kennedy is sending shock waves across the entire country.

Blue Dog Democrats should realize that if Scott Brown can get this far in the bluest of states, what will happen to them in November when they face far more conservative voters in places like Nebraska, North Carolina, Indianna and Colorado? Quite simply, unless they desist in supporting the unpopular, far-left policies of Obama, Pelosi and Reid, American voters will throw them out of office faster than you can say cadillac tax exemption.

How deliciously Shakespearean that the state which was the cradle of the American Revolution, may well provide us with a means of saving America from the insane, unconstitutional attempts by the left to commandeer a massive segment of the private sector. So what is the left's response?

We already know that organizations like ACORN, SEIU and public employees who gorge themselves at the tax troughs (aka Govenor Patrick appointees) are going to do everything they can to steal this election. Dead people will vote, people who moved out of the state years ago will vote, illegal aliens will vote, and many legitimate voters will vote more than once - if they're voting for Coakley, of course.

How do we know this? History. Democrats have been stealing elections this way for decades. Hell, its even being prescribed as a course of action by the moonbats in the elite media. Oh Bob, Schultz and Matthews were just using hyperbole to stress the importance of this election. Right, and if this was Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh making the same comments about Scott Brown, there wouldn't be congressional hearings created to determine how they tried to illegally affect the outcome of an election. I was born at night, but not last night baby.

If that fails, then you will likely see legal challenges forcing recounts and vote exclusions until the numbers finally show a Coakely "win". Its what Democrats tried to do in Florida in 2000, and succeeded in doing in Minnesota in 2008 when they literally stole a Senate seat from Norm Coleman for the bridge troll known as Al Franken.

Failing to do that, in a final act of desperation, the Democrats' will attempt to delay the seating of Brown in the hopes of cramming Obamacare down the throats (among other orifices) of Americans. For hate's sake they will spit their last breath a thee, voters of Massachusettes! To paraphrase Sean Connery in The Untouchables, summing up the Democrats' strategy in a nutshell: that's the Democrat way.

Pay no attention to the icebergs in Miami

With a relatively neutered Iggy of late, I decided to take an opportunity to point out how Americans are viewed as morons by leftist elitists. A couple of years ago, "global warming" magically became "climate change". Keeping in mind that in a political context, "global warming" means "man-made planetary warming caused by evil American capitalists", the scam artists who created and perpetrated this lie realized that the mean global temperature had not risen since 1998. In fact, global temperatures began to drop in 2007.

Faced with some very uncomfortable facts, their solution was typically liberal; when you lose an argument, change the argument! So, global warming became climate change; voila! If its 104 degrees in Miami in August, its because you drive an SUV you capitalist, American pig. If its -37 in International Falls in January, its because you want to keep your house at 70 degrees, imperialist swine! No matter what happens, the solution is to subvert America's prosperity and sovereignty - and those idiot Americans won't be able to see the truth through their tears over dying polar bears - just as long as they don't find out that the polar bear population is actually on the rise.

It now seems that the planet, without any help from us, has already entered a cooling period. As one of the leading climate change frauds, it must have really pained Professor Mojib Latif to report this as such. My guess is that the recent Climategate scandal forced his hand.

"Latif, a professor at the Leibniz Institute at Germany's Kiel University and an author of the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, believes the lengthy cold weather is merely a pause -- a 30-years-long blip -- in the larger cycle of global warming, which postulates that temperatures will rise rapidly over the coming years.

At a U.N. conference in September, Latif said that changes in ocean currents known as the North Atlantic Oscillation could dominate over manmade global warming for the next few decades. Latif said the fluctuations in these currents could also be responsible for much of the rise in global temperatures seen over the past 30 years.

So let me get this straight. The decrease in temperatures projected over the next 30 years is unrelated to humans, being caused by ocean currents. It will only be a temporary blip on the way to future, man-made, higher temperatures - even though the the same currents may have caused the rise in temperatures over the past 30 years. As Kevin Kline would say; "What was that middle part again?"

For other, more committed frauds, apparently circular logic is not enough!

"Has ocean variability contributed to variations in surface temperature? Absolutely, no one's denying that," said Mark Serreze, senior research scientist with NSIDC. But the Center disagrees with Latif's conclusions, instead arguing that the cold snap is still another sign of global warming.

"We are indeed starting to see the effects of the rise in greenhouse gases," he said.

Just like a socialist who claims that socialism has never worked anywhere its been tried because the "right people" were not in charge, not only can Serreze not admit defeat, he goes on the offensive. Our greenhouse gas emissions are causing . . . global cooling! Such a statement would have been totally ridiculed; before global warming became climate change.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain . . . you stupid iggyots.
