Scales falling from the eyes...

Two installments on what may become a regular feature:

First up, dutiful lefty David Mamet on why he is no longer a "brain-dead liberal." Read the whole thing. I think his critique of "brain-dead liberalism" is a fair one. He doesn't believe all liberals are brain-dead. Rather, that he was not thinking about it. There were certain things he accepted as hardened facts that did not withstand the scrutiny of close examination or comparison with real life.

Second, physicist and environmentalist Miklós Zágoni believes he was wrong about global warmening. Like any good scientist (or intellectually honest person) changed his mind to fit the facts and not the other way around. The key graf:


NASA refused to release the results. Miskolczi believes their motivation is simple. "Money", he tells DailyTech. Research that contradicts the view of an impending crisis jeopardizes funding, not only for his own atmosphere-monitoring project, but all climate-change research. Currently, funding for climate research tops $5 billion per year.



Lastly, a bit of good mockery but let anyone who doesn't admit that Code Pink hates America see them speak for themselves. Key quote: "We don't have to be concerned about their rights, it's an unequal relationship." All pigs are equal but some are more equal than others.
