Still Hating America.

[Tyrone Slothrop]

Alex Tabarrok:

A new GAO Report tells us that unlike private insurers government insurers are not planning for the risks of climate change.

• Major private and federal insurers are both exposed to the effects of climate change over coming decades, but are responding differently. Many large private insurers are incorporating climate change into their annual risk management practices, and some are addressing it strategically by assessing its potential long-term industry-wide impacts. The two major federal insurance programs, however, have done little to develop comparable information.

This would seem to put some of my free market friends who continue to believe that global warming is a leftist hoax in something of a bind. Is climate change real or are government regulators wise and farsighted?

Well, you must be advising the WaPo:



BTW, is that arrangement astronomically possible?

if the star were a white dwarf, maybe. no. wait. it isn't.

By the way, how do we know that what's going on isn't the sun beginning to go supernova instead of greenhouse gases causing the small rise in temps?

"Marshaling," eh? You submit phony bills, don't you?

and the fucked thing for Adder is that he can hardly claim he was billing for the "value" of his work instead of the hours.

Be that as it may, if most people in this country believed that creation science was the best explanation of speciation, that would not be a good reason to teach it in schools. With the allegations of stovepiping and other abuse of the intelligence system, it seems a little premature to reach conclusions about what our government knew. Perhaps the archives will be unsealed before we're dead.

you mean minus the stuff that Berger stole?

It must come the stress of all the funerals for fallen soldiers that she and W have attended.

It appears that we're back...

Something about power going out in Colorado.

Hope no one was actually forced to do work while we were away.

Can you imagine how apeshit people would have gone if -- in comparable circumstances -- HRC had said the same thing?

I'm sure the President has full confidence in her.

Congress subpoenas Rice. (Han spree: it's msnbc, not a blog). Also, they've immunized Goodling, so she'll have to testify.

Prediction: future Presidents will be so gun shy to use force that the mess that clinton let grow in Afghanistan will be dwarfed by what we let go.

While I encourage use of my marks, I do insist on brand consistancy. There are no spaces: Ty@50.
