Egad, she's back.

Hillary came back and won three out of the four primaries yesterday, including the two biggies of Ohio and Texas. So the primary race continues.

A good sized chunk of her comeback can be blamed attributed to Saturday Night Live. Their skit showing the press fawning over Obama led to journalists being embarrassed about how "lightly" they've treated Obama, so he got more scrutiny and she got more positive stories.

So the horse race continues. Who will suffer hoof-in-mouth disease next?

Well, it looks like the Clinton press corps is in the toilet.

No, really.

John Coleman, the founder of The Weather Channel, is disappointed that it has turned into an advocate of pro-AGW. He's suggesting that businesses who sell carbon credits - and even Al Gore himself - be sued over the scam:

Coleman also told the audience his strategy for exposing what he called "the fraud of global warming". He advocated suing those who sell carbon credits, which would force global warming alarmists to give a more honest account of the policies they propose.

"[I] have a feeling this is the opening," Coleman said. "If the lawyers will take the case � sue the people who sell carbon credits. That includes Al Gore. That lawsuit would get so much publicity, so much media attention. And as the experts went to the witness stand and testified, I feel like that could become the vehicle to finally put some light on the fraud of global warming."

Here's some video, too.

If they went to court, they'd have to actually PROVE global warming with more than computer sims with flawed data. They'd have to provide an accounting of where that money for carbon credits goes.

That just may do it.

According to this article, many Arab husbands are divorcing their wives - via text message. A lawyer comments that such divorces take effect even if the husband doesn't verbally announce his intention.

Well, it's better than honor killings.

I have a dentist appointment today. O joy, o rapture.

Be seeing you...I hope.

Coleman should be careful what he wishes for. When they put Evolution on trial vs. Intelligent Design - the ID people were roundly lambasted and practically laughed out of the courtroom. Besides, he may have FOUNDED the Weather Channel, but he was driven out of there quickly. And remember, he's not founder of the CLIMATE channel.

(Reposted from a comment I posted on Hud's blog): As some readers might recall, my husband John is an environmental claims consultant. He helps clean up the enviroment every day of his life, and I believe that morally and ethically, he�s doing more for the health of this planet every goddamn working day of his life than any of the paid Greenie Gorillas or carbon offset advocates could ever hope to accomplish in a lifetime. In his industry, that of environmental cleanup�these so called �carbon credits� DO NOT EXIST! But wait? Why don�t they exist? Aren�t they helping to clean the environment? ... You guessed it. NO! In their current incarnation, they are not now and never will be a validated or appropriate form of reimbursement or restoration for any environmental cleanup actions.
