Tom Hanks is a moron. I can’t believe this idiot even went there. He is no student of history if he thinks this shit…
By Victor Davis Hanson
Much has been written of the recent Tom Hanks remarks to Douglas Brinkley in a Time magazine interview about his upcoming HBO series on World War II in the Pacific. Here is the explosive excerpt that is making the rounds today.
“Back in World War II, we viewed the Japanese as ‘yellow, slant-eyed dogs’ that believed in different gods. They were out to kill us because our way of living was different. We, in turn, wanted to annihilate them because they were different. Does that sound familiar, by any chance, to what’s going on today?”
Hanks may not have been quoted correctly; and his remarks may have been impromptu and poorly expressed; and we should give due consideration to the tremendous support Hanks has given in the past both to veterans and to commemoration of World War II; and his new HBO series could well be a fine bookend to Band of Brothers. All that said, Hanks’ comments were sadly infantile pop philosophizing offered by, well, an ignoramus.

Don’t vote for some idiot, just because he’s a Republican claiming Tea Party ties. Make sure that they are actually Conservative and not playing the part as a RINO.
Make would-be Tea Party leaders prove they support Second Amendment
By David Codrea
We talked yesterday about a new national “conservative” group founded by the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and I raised concerns about automatically aligning the liberty movement with prominent members of the Republican Party establishment. After all, if the GOP as a whole had been championing republican, that is, Constitutional values all along, we’d hardly need a “Tea Party” movement, would we?
That the establishment worries the growing freedom movement may siphon off votes to deny them power is evident—no less a leadership luminary than former MA governor/GOP presidential nomination contender Mitt Romney is out there telling those enraged by betrayal that whatever you do, don’t vote third party. Romney, who signed a ban on semiautomatic firearms while governor, would rather have us support someone like, say, semiautomatic firearm ban bill author Mark Kirk, than jump ship.

Jury Duty Thursday, Mar 18 2010
Failure and Government and Truth Jury, Truth 08:46
I was called up for jury duty on Tuesday, the court decided to hold us there sall day, then tell us to come back on Thursday. Wednesday being a state furlough day. I went back this morning and we were released because they weren’t ready for a trial. What a complete waste of time.
Oh well, guess it’s like a day off then.
On the bright side of things, since they didn’t want us there Wednesday, I decided to take the day off and watch the USMC Drum and Bugle Corps along with the Silent Drill Team.
Pretty cool. I’ll post about that one shortly.

Really?
The fucking IRS goes after some Schmoe at a car wash for .04 cents, and totally ignores the thousands that the morons in Obama’s administration owed, and even the moron Geithner’s tax issues.
Four cents. Two dudes and a car to go collect it.
How much did the government just waste on that?
Bob Shallit: IRS visits Sacramento carwash in pursuit of 4 cents
Arriving at Harv’s Metro Car Wash in midtown Wednesday afternoon were two dark-suited IRS agents demanding payment of delinquent taxes. “They were deadly serious, very aggressive, very condescending,” says Harv’s owner, Aaron Zeff.
The really odd part of this: The letter that was hand-delivered to Zeff’s on-site manager showed the amount of money owed to the feds was … 4 cents.

Climategate Roundup… Friday, Mar 12 2010
Axis of Idiots and Climategate and Global Warming Scam and Global Whining Climategate, Global Warming 07:38
Time for another Climategate round up.
It looks like there is another scam afoot to take some of the pressure off of the Climategate mess. Looks like it will just add fuel to the fire. Pun intended.
Prominent climate scientists affiliated with the U.S. National Academies of Science have been planning a public campaign to paper over the damaged reputation of global warming alarmism, according to recently disclosed e-mail messages. Their scheme would involve officials at the National Academies and other professional associations producing studies to endorse the researchers’ pre-existing assumptions and create confusion about the revelations of the rapidly expanding “Climategate” scandal.
The e-mails were first reported in a front-page story by Stephen Dinan in the Washington Times today. The Competitive Enterprise Institute has independently obtained copies of the e-mails and has posted them at GlobalWarming.org.
—————————————————————————————-
Gallup’s annual update of Americans’ attitudes on things environmental found that 48% of Americans believe the seriousness of global warming is generally exaggerated, up from 41% in 2009, and 31% in 1997, when Gallup first posed the question.
Similarly, the percentage of those who believe global warming is going to affect them or their way of life in their lifetimes has dropped from 40% in 2008 to 32% today.

Sen. Joe Lieberman hides the tax now…
Kerry-Graham-Lieberman: The Tax Formerly Known As Cap-and-Trade
by Marlo Lewis
My colleague Julie Walsh flags a funny statement by Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT), quoted earlier this week (Mar. 9) in Greenwire (subscription required). Although Lieberman, Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) want to include cap-and-trade in their draft climate and energy legislation, they are reluctant to use the term.
Greenwire reports:
Lieberman also downplayed the use of the term “cap and trade” when it comes to limiting emissions, even though that is generally the plan with their bill. “We don’t use that term anymore,” he said. “We’ll have pollution reduction targets. Remember the Artist Previously Known as Prince?”

Utah Legislature going at it on climate debate…
Climate Debate in Halls of Utah Legislature
by Paul Chesser, Heartland Institute Correspondent
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a state legislator go toe-to-toe on the climate change issue with an alarmist, but the Fox News affiliate in Salt Lake City caught that very thing on camera this week. On Wednesday after a student-led global warming rally at the legislature, State Rep. Mike Noel, chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, found himself in the same room with former Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson. Here’s the full discussion, in which the skeptic Noel is surrounded by environoiacs, including one who kept trying to butt in.

Those Climate Pugilists
By Paul Chesser
Pity the poor Climategaters. The staid were played. Gentlepersons were violated. And the billion-dollar global warming science complex can’t compete with spunky skeptics.
Those are some of the complaints registered in newly disclosed emails among members of the National Academy of Sciences, whose messages were mysteriously made public last week via the Washington Times. Some call it Climategate II; Whinergate is more apropos.

Time to give up on the global warming religion…
WeatherAction.com long range weather & climate forecasters today (5 March) said it was good news the Met Office now admits they were ‘also-rans’ in the long range forecasting stakes and offered to fill the forecasting gap in the national interest.
“This is a serious matter, not a game, the Met office surrender is important because their misleading failed forecasts have cased unnecessary suffering and loss of life and would continue to do so if not terminated. The cold icy winter caused huge economic loss made worse by the UK and Europe running out of road salt after the Met Office’s mild winter prognosis – in which some also died in road accidents as a consequence”, said Piers

Gun Control… Wednesday, Mar 10 2010
Guns and Second Amendment Guns, Second Amendment 18:49
Here’s an interesting look at gun control from CATO.
Gun Control After McDonald
Posted by David Rittgers
I recently appeared on the Patt Morrison Show in southern California opposite Paul Helmke of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence in a segment that begs the question of what gun control laws will look like if the Supreme Court incorporates the Second Amendment with the McDonald v. Chicago case. The audio of the program is here, but the issue merits a more detailed discussion than I could get into on the radio.
The litigation over the boundaries of the Second Amendment in the District of Columbia previews the kinds of gun laws that will face court scrutiny.
First, certain restrictions on the purchase of firearms will likely be overturned. California maintains a “safe gun roster” of handguns that manufacturers have successfully submitted for safety testing. Following the Heller decision, the District adopted California’s roster. The roster is very specific, and handgun models are certified “safe” right down to the color. The District rejected applications to register two-tone guns, discontinued models, and guns not on the California roster. Three plaintiffs filed suit, alleging that this policy violated constitutional protections against irrational administrative regulations. The District relented, expanding its roster to include the “safe handguns” listings for Maryland and Massachusetts.
