take a deep breath, part 2

Let's talk some more about my recent posts. I have one quick comment to close out the Mel Gibson saga, then we'll talk about global warming.
True Confession Time: I am an ex-Fall Down Drunk who retired from the "Bar Wars" 10 years ago. During those years that I was on "active duty", I logged enough miles drunk driving to qualify for the Indy 500. A former "wingman" of mine from the Bar Wars was killed drunk driving last Christmas. He never retired from "active duty." Today, I look back on those days and I thank God that I am still alive. I am ashamed of the illegal, immoral, and really stupid things I used to do, and I am thankful beyond measure for God's forgiveness. Do I know Mel Gibson's heart? No. Do I know if his apologies are sincere? No, but he expressed such remorse in his statement that I am inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt. Is Gibson just trying to cover his a--, because he spewed Anti-Semitic garbage at the policeman? I don't know. I wasn't there. I do know that many, many members of the mainstream media hold a grudge against Gibson because of the success of Passion. I also know that about half of what you see/hear in the mainstream media is made up. I'll hold off on making any bold pronouncements on Gibson's remarks until we find out what the truth is. If it's true that he made all of those bigoted comments to the officer on the scene, Gibson will deserve our scorn.
On to global warming. Ann Coulter talks in her book about how liberals "believe" in global warming with a religious intensity, and I think we can see proof of that here. All of the claims about global warming are based upon computer models that attempt to predict what the weather will do in the future. Those computer models are based solely upon the data that scientists plug into the models. That data consists of information culled from the history of weather, and of beliefs the scientists have about the future trends of the weather. Can't you see (as Toy Caldwell would say) what this says about the computer models? The models can be made to say anything the scientists want them to say, and they get paid to come to a certain conclusion. I'm certainly not going to take the word of a serial liar like "Broken Thermometer" Gore on the subject. We must be very careful as we discuss this topic, because the goal of many of the devotees of global warming around the globe is to weaken the U.S. economically and militarily. many of them also have as their goal a subordination of U.S. sovereignty to one-world governance. None of the above is good for we the people of the United States.
