MSM Goes to Ridiculous Lengths to Avoid Climategate by Ignoring IPCC C

Big news on the Climategate front. The chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Dr. Rajendra K. Pachauri, has issued a major response to the Climategate scandal.

Well, guess how many…

Krauthammer: Pending Climate Change Legislation a 'Dead Parrot

After the U.S. House of Representatives passed cap-and-trade legislation earlier this year by a thin seven-vote margin earlier this year, the possibility that it could become law seemed like it was a real one.
