Be very afraid!No matter how many times people like Nobel Laureate Al Gore claim that global warming isn't political, nothing can be further from the truth.Take for example a bill in the California senate to require climate change be part of the science curricula in all public schools.As reported in Friday's San Jose Mercury (emphasis added throughout, h/t Marc Sheppard):

Brother of Slain TWA 847 Hijack Victim Says Media Are Pro-Terrorist

While press outlets such as the New York Times grieved over the death of Imad Mugniyah last week, they disgracefully ignored the hundreds of innocent people directly and indirectly killed by this terrorist the past three decades. One such was Robert Stethem, a Navy Seabee diver that was assassinated on June 15, 1985, during the hijacking of TWA Flight 847; Mugniyah was one of the hijackers.…
