Meeting the candidates

Author | joe | Posted on | November 21, 2009 | 2 Comments

We just heard from a group of candidates, most of them Republican, for several congressional seats next year. A few were pretty impressive, but that is a story that won’t be typed via blackberry.

When Rick Sincere gets the videos posted, I’ll link to some.

For now, this is GOP candidate for the 5th district Michael McFadden (left), his lovely wife (wish I did not have this terrible problem remembering names!!) and my good friend Craig Hudgins, who should be state senator right now. Ah well, for now it’s good to see some good people throwing their hats in the ring.

    Joe, it seems like, from what you’re reporting, for the most part the conference was put on by repubs and hosted by repubs and mostly for repubs? Is that accurate?

    Well if you followed any of the links you’d see that was not the case, although the number of conservatives was larger than the number of liberals this year. Both Vivian and Kenton are still firmly in the clutches of liberal thinking but I have hope for them yet. These are rough times for democrats, so they must be excused for not turning out in greater numbers.

    Last March, NASA reported the oceans have been cooling for the last five years. Sea level has stopped rising, and Northern Hemisphere cyclone and hurricane activity is at a 24-year low.

    Environmental extremists and global warming alarmists are in denial and running for cover. Their rationale for continuing a lost cause is that weather events in the short term are not necessarily related to long-term climatic trends. But these are the same people who screamed at us each year that ordinary weather events such as high temperatures or hurricanes were undeniable evidence of imminent doom.

    Now that global warming is over, politicians are finally ready to enact dubious solutions to a non-existent problem. In Britain, Parliament is intrepidly forging ahead with a bold new plan to cool the climate, even as London experienced its first October snowfall since 1934 and Ireland went through the coldest October in the last 70 years.

    This is an absurd spectacle. Our advanced civilization is being systematically mismanaged by technologically illiterate lawyers responding to political pressures from irrational fanatics. Would someone please tell these people it is impossible to overturn the laws of thermodynamics?
