No Need to Panic About Global Warming?

You may have seen the letter in the Wall Street Journal yesterday, written (purportedly) by sixteen “scientists” who somehow think the Global Warming consensus is something they can dispute. Which, of course, they can. In response, I’m forced to wonder: has anybody ever written an anti-fisking? If not, then witness this TrogloPundit first. The letter […]

The payroll tax cut, and why my feelings on it are somewhat less mixed than they were before.

Via Jazz Shaw, and as you’re probably already aware, the Senate rejected two measures on the 2-point payroll tax cut on Thursday: The Senate late Thursday rejected competing partisan visions for extending a temporary tax break that benefits virtually every American worker, clearing the way for more serious negotiations over how to cover the cost […]

 


Why do Wisconsin liberals want so badly to overturn Gov. Walker’s reforms NOW?

Because the longer they stay in effect, the better they’ll work. Earlier this week, I wrote about a survey which, according to Wisconsin’s educracy, concluded that Governor Walker’s reforms are destroying public education in Wisconsin.
