Copenhagen climate summit: global warming 'caused by sun's radiation'
Subject: txt 1st grn owg -
Global warming is caused by radiation from the sun, according to a leading scientist speaking out at an alternative ''sceptics' conference'' in Copenhagen.
As the world gathered in the Danish capital for the UN Climate Change Conference, more than 50 scientists, businessmen and lobby groups met to discuss the arguments against man made global warming.
Professor Henrik Svensmark, a physicist at the Danish National Space Center in Copenhagen, said the recent warming period was caused by solar activity.
He said the last time the world experienced such high temperatures, during the medieval warming period, the Sun and the Earth were in a similar cycle.
Professor Nils-Axel Morner, a geologist from Stockholm University, said sea level rise has also been exaggerated by the “climate alarmists” using computer models.
He said observational data from lake sediments, coast lines and trees show sea levels have remained stable... [snip]
He said a recent poll by the Telegraph, that shows only one in two people accept man made climate change, show people are questioning the consensus being pushed by the UN summit.
“As anybody knows who follows the opinion polls in Britain and Australia and the US, in the last few weeks and months there has been a rapid collapse in the global warming chimera so while we still have our freedom, let us speak out.”

Saudis: Investigate Climategate
[HT:CS]Subject: txt grn owg - 
What happens when scientific data has been tampered with? You recalibrate. You recalculate. And you invcestigate. Why is it that only some 14th century throwback dictatorship — the House of Saud — is calling for an investigation into Climategate? Are the American media and the world’s democracies so vested in theis religion of Man’s Sin bringing fire and brimstone onto the Earth that they cannot see that they are being played for suckers by Al Gore and his ilk?
This scandal is an embarrassment to the United Nations, the Obama administration and the administration of most of the rest of G-20 - but not nearly so much as their reaction to it...

The Democrat's idea of 'free and open debate' on climate change
No skeptics need testify. No discussion of Climategate necessary
John Fund of the Wall Street Journal reports on a hearing in the House Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming that featured Obama's science advisor John Holdren.
One of Holdren's emails was featured in the Climategate hack where the scientist ridiculed AGW skeptics.
Moore reports:
In the House, the Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming held a hearing on what Chairman Ed Markey said was "the urgent consensus view . . . that global warming is real, and the science indicates it is getting worse." But the only witnesses were officials from the Obama administration, who support dramatic action on climate change. Republicans asked to have a global-warming skeptic appear but were denied.Holdren is right on one point: the emails discuss only a small part of the total AGW science.
What he doesn't mention is that the emails only represent 5% of the information contained in the document dump and that other aspects of the scandal reveal a much deeper problem; that the temperature data on which the IPCC based its recommendations for economy-killing cuts in emissions cannot be duplicated anywhere else.Yet Democrats simply ignore Climategate or treat it as a joke...

Great Dane: Denmark's Parliament's Speaker Expresses 'Serious Doubts' About 'Climate Change'
Subject: txt grn intl -
Normally, it's news when a leading politician in a country hosting a summit expresses harsh dissent against that summit's agenda -- or at least it is when a leftist is the dissenter.
As reported in Politiken.dk, self-described here as "one of Denmark’s largest newspapers and has been published since 1884," Pedersen pushes back against the global warming pap:
But I doubt that what Thor Pedersen, Speaker of the Danish Parliament, has to say about the upcoming COP15 Climate Summit will get much if any play in U.S. network newscasts or in the nation's establishment media publications of record.

Terrorist Criminal Trials and the Coming Jihad
Look what happened the last time al-Qaeda terrorists and their attorneys got a hold of the discovery process 
After the bombing of the American embassy in Nairobi, the police found amid the belongings of one of the perpetrators a list of the unindicted co-conspirators of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing in New York. The list was submitted to the lawyers for the defendant, Sheik Abdel Rahman, and signed by Mary Jo White, the United States Attorney. Under the rules of discovery in a criminal trial, the defendant had every right to the list. If you read through the names of the unindicted co-conspirators, one will jump off the page and grab your attention. It is Number 95: Osama bin Laden.
If ever you needed a reason why terrorists must be dealt with as foreign combatants and not as criminals, it would have stared you in the face throughout the discovery process of Sheik Rahman's trial. But there's more. Rahman's activist attorney, Lynne Stewart, used her position to pass information from the cleric to his terrorist followers in Egypt. She was later disbarred and sentenced to twenty-eight months in prison.
Stewart is not an anomaly. Radical lawyers bent on using the legal system to further a political agenda will be falling all over themselves to represent the five alleged terrorists who will now stand trial in New York City. These lawyers will put American foreign policy on trial for the events of September 11, 2001. In putting September 11 mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed and his co-conspirators into the criminal justice system, Attorney General Eric Holder and President Barack Obama have given the jihadists a once-in-a-lifetime stage for their propaganda...

Oil sector braces for punch from U.S.
Subject: txt engry -
Washington - Canada may be bracing for a diplomatic black eye in Copenhagen, where a long-awaited climate summit aimed at dialling down the world's thermostat opens Monday. But a much harder punch from Washington is what worries Canada's petroleum sector – and by extension, Ottawa – as the U.S. government weighs landmark legislation that will ultimately give shape to the continent's energy future.
At issue is the possibility the U.S. will impose a national Low-Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS), a rule that would penalize dirty fuels like carbon-intensive Alberta crude in a bid to lighten the overall footprint of American transportation.

CNN: Immigration Status Verification Would Drive Businesses Under
Subject: txt msm bias immig -
Many industries rely on migrant labor, but that is no excuse for news networks to advocate a path to legalization for illegal aliens, or - worse - to excuse employers who simply look the other way.
Yet, CNN's Jason Carroll did both in a segment for "American Morning" Nov. 5.
"You hear it, not just in the farming industry, but in the restaurant industry as well and so many of these industries - the garment industry - you know, this is what these people are looking for,"
Carroll said after delivering his pro-immigrant report.
"They're looking for immigration reform. They feel like their businesses will go under if someone does not find a way to make some of these people who are here working, who are undocumented, and get them into some sort of legal status."

Dems Vote to Allow Federal Funding for Corrupt ACORN

Last night, defying the will of a bipartisan majority of the House and Senate, Democrats voted to allow the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) to receive federal taxpayer dollars.
In September, large Congressional majorities in both houses voted to sever all ties between the federal government and ACORN. The Senate vote was 85-11; the House vote was 345-75.
You’d think that those votes, which USA Today described as prohibiting “any federal funding for the community organizing group,” would have settled the matter.You’d be wrong...
