In a way, you have to pity the fool for taking the job. His credibility is now down there with Baghdad Bob. And no one actually knows where he ended up. But at least Carney isn't likely to end up in a shallow grave for failing to sell Teh Won's insanity.

I love Democrats and their revisionist history. Get this through your thick head: GORE NEVER WON A SINGLE RECOUNT!!!!! The Supreme Court had to step in because the Florida Supreme Court overstepped its powers in allowing Algore's petition to change the way the votes were counted. They had no authority to do so. The Florida Constitution gives that power only to the Legislature. Oh, and for the record, the NY Times and USA Today finished the recount that was stopped by the Court. Bush still won. Take a bite of the reality sandwich, will you?

I wonder how many millions of our tax dollars were spent so these bozos could do a telephone survey and call it a "study?" Next the telemarketers will use this scam to get around the "Do not call" lists. "They're just doing a study on how many people are receptive to telemarketing!" That'll cover them for years!

Cowpies are all Obama has on many subjects, not just economics.

Ah, yes. Another "study" funded by our tax dollars to tell us what we already know. Another bailout for an incompetent scientist. And, of course, since it doesn't support the alarmists' contention that they're smarter, they dismiss it as not really meaning anything.

Even if we reduced our CO2 output as much as the alarmists want, all it would take is one good volcanic eruption to undo all of our efforts. Despite their ego-driven belief that they can dictate to nature, she always has the last laugh.

Thank you for this. The military dogs are truly the forgotten veterans. They don't understand what's going on, they have no "skin in the game," but they serve with a loyalty and honor that surpasses their handlers in many cases. This column should be mandatory reading every Memorial Day.

I think that the sub-species idea is probably correct. The Cro-Magnons didn't have to knit a blanket to put over the volcano....just kill a dinosaur and use the skin. Is it just me, or is this discussion getting a bit surreal?

The Saint Crispian's Day speech from Henry V. Rarely has the lot of the soldier been so well summed up. I was fortunate in that I went into the military during the 80s, when we had no war to fight. I have nothing but respect for all of you that actually saw battle.

b) is correct. However, the odds of getting a resolute enough new management are only slightly better than being struck by lightning on a clear day. Sadly, the odds favor a combination of a & c.
