Newsmax.com - New Evidence the Earth Is Cooling
As Robert Felix just reported in his authoritative iceagenow.com, on various days is June of 2009 there were record low temperatures in 18 states; record low temperatures in 15 states; record low temperatures in 24 states; record low temperatures in 11 states; record low max temperatures in 20 states; record low temperatures in seven states; and record low temperatures in 10 states.

Despite all this, with a straight face, the Obama administration prattles on about a disastrous global warming that just plain isn't happening.

The timing of this Piltdown-man-style report is more than suspicious, coming at a time when the planet is cooling. It seems that what they are asking us is just who are we to believe, their bought-and-paid scientific hucksters or our lying eyes, focused on piles of snow in Britain in the month of June?

So at 1:30 the White House is holding a press conference to release a new report claiming that the cooling climate is warming faster than predicted, etc., etc., and boy wouldn't it be great if we accepted the responsible agenda of an energy tax. Like, oh, hey, the one the House is expected to take up anon!

I say anon because, at least as of early yesterday evening, the rumor on the Hill was that the inevitable sell-out by Democrats on the House Agriculture Committee had been agreed in principle, and Rep. Colin Peterson — who also rolled over to Speaker Pelosi on his own farm bill, staff are noting, so he shouldn't be expected to hold out long on the Obama Energy Tax — will bring his band of about three dozen Democrats over to the "Aye" column. If true, the rumor has it, the bill was slated for the House floor next Thursday. I have little fear of the latter, even if the former is inevitable.

Today's event is surely aimed in part at swaying those holdouts, but is also another in a series of such stunts, employing the same alarmist authors, begun with the Clinton-Gore administration's November 2000 report making the same claims, with an eye toward convincing the voting public that you-know-who ought to occupy the Oval Office.
