SO MANY REGULATIONS, SO LITTLE TIME: Obama rushes through permanent regulations costing $118 billion in final months.

Ensuring his legacy as the worst President ever....
IEEE SPECTRUM: Testing Einstein's theories with satellites stuck in eccentric orbits.
CLIMATE CHANGE: Global warming summit to produce '300,000 tons of C02' as 50,000 people travel to Paris from across the world. Scroll down through the pictures of our 6 ton-per-person 'elites' serving us proles spending our tax dollars.


MORE: The Washington Examiner recently asked whether the research serving as the basis for the climate summit in Paris is "settled science" or "junk science." Here are the readers' responses:
Global warming has been going on for thirty thousand years.

"Consensus" is not science.

It is settled science. But humankind does not have the moral capacity to fix it or stop it, and therefore must adapt to it. This will not be cheap, either.

The only "proof" for anthropogenic climate change are computer models that have been mathematically proven to be flawed. Journalists should be following the power and money to see what is driving this hoax.

'Junk Science'!

It is a "Faith-based Science." The scientists who propagate these ideas are unable to explain why when human activity in the past - which was negligible - cannot explain prior climate changes of massive proportions we should be quick to jump on human activity as the most responsible factor for present changes based on questionable observations.

When the government pushes something this hard, it's about money and taxes.

I'm still waiting for the oceans to rise. When the oceans begin rising like Al Gore told us they would be by now, then I'll believe in climate warming.
It's all about control -- and the graft and corruption that accompanies it.
A RESPONSE to the Morning Examiner's Question of the Day: The question was about whether Donald Trump's call for a ban on Muslims entering the countrry was motivated by publicity or was the expressing of a sincere, if politically incorrect, proposal to deal with radical Islamic terrorism. One reader's response:
Interesting that your first story in yesterday's edition was how crazy Trump's proposal was to ban all Muslims and then your second story pointed out that terrorist groups were using the refugee program to send terrorists into the United States. The reason Trump is so popular is because he says things that make sense to normal Americans who have to deal with the problems our government inflicts on us.
Italics are mine.
IF OBAMA HAD BEEN PRESIDENT IN 1941....


The Washington Post agrees: Obama would have lost WWII.
Writing that Obama seems "petulant" and "out of ideas" in his response to world events, [Washington Post columnist Richard] Cohen said Monday that "if the Obama of today and not Winston Churchill had led Britain in World War II, the Old Vic theater would now be doing 'Hamlet' in German."
Heh.
FANTASYLAND: It's not just for Disneyland.
AMMO GRRLLL: Some thoughts for the 'marginalized':
Grow up; shut up; and get a life. Your massive, gratuitous rage will only raise your blood pressure and shorten that life. If you think your life will be improved away from the racist, rape-culture-y hellholes of Harvard Law or Dartmouth or Princeton, for the love of God, feel free to give up your spot to the next poor soul. Hey, maybe even to the applicant with 400 more SAT points than you whose place you took because of the color of your skin. Maybe she would have cured cancer instead of pretending to worry about John C. Calhoun.
Sound advice....
