All The News That's Fit To Shudder At...

Yeah, yeah... I've been slacking off a bit on the postings here at Usually Right. No one particular reason; basically it's that the "news" as a whole continues to depress and disappoint me.

Examples...

Once a week or so I get emails from "Cooler Heads Digest," a publication of the American Enterprise Institute, which alerts me to new research, news, and analysis regarding the "climate change." Here are a few snippets from the most recent Digest:

A video of Chris Horner, author of "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming" and "Red Hot Lies: How Global Warming Alarmists Use Threats, Lies, and Deception to Keep You Misinformed" outlining corporate welfare and other wasteful and counterproductive government policies as they relate to the Obama Administration's energy policies. Check it out... it's only 4:41 minutes long.

Then there's this Wall Street Journal op-ed written by Pete DuPont, titled "Sapping America's Energy," that if you take two minutes to read will surely give you the chills... all global "warming" aside.

By the way... as DuPont points out within his piece... According to the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the Earth's average rate of warming in the 30 years from 1977 to 2007 was just 0.32 degree Fahrenheit per decade, and the global surface temperature has remained virtually flat since 1998.

Yep. All the news that's fit to shudder at.

More? Sure! Here's Iain Murray's latest piece, "Upset Over Offsets".

Then we have the news and analysis that's depressing not in and of itself, but based on the fact that so few will be exposed to it. Perfect example: Click Here!

Finally... to round out my digest of the latest... er... Digest... check this out.

(*SIGH*)

And this post simply represents the highlights of one email from one of the various Think Tanks I receive emails from on a daily basis. Add to that my daily newspaper and general news browsing...

(*SHUDDER*)

Again... this post provides a single topic example - in this case, regarding the issue of climate change - of the daily deluge of depressing data that comes with being aware of what the heck is going on nationwide and worldwide.

(*SMILE*)

Oh, well... enough whining... 20 days between posts is far too long. Therefore...
