Instapundit » Blog Archive » 2009 HURRICANE SEASON a bust. [Prof. Stephen Clark] It should not pass unstated that the predictions you allude to of increasing strength and frequency of Caribbean hurricanes were based on models.

It's out in the mainstream, in a not-too-bad report from the Washington Post. Juliet Eilperin focuses exclusively on the controversy and not the content in this report, which is a story in itself (via Instapundit): While few U.S. politicians bother to question whether humans are changing the world's climate -- nearly ...

So says a reader at Instapundit about the latest revelations regarding the firing of AmeriCorps inspector general Gerald Walpin.

Barack Obama's victory in the presidential election, combined with congressional gains for Democrats, will prompt a wave of soul-searching on the right. Among other things, we will be asking: What is the road back from the political wilderness? Where can we look for hope that the next four years will be a temporary lurch to the left from which America will soon recover? Fortunately, a long search is...

More hope and change… Obamacare will penalize uninsured Americans but uninsured aliens will get a pass. What a shock. Keith Hennessey reported, via Instapundit: Under Leader Reid’s amendment, in the year 2019 about 16 million U.S. citizens would be uninsured and be forced to pay a penalty tax of almost $800 per year. About eight million illegal aliens [...]

Almost a week ago I ran across this Wall Street Journal column at Instapundit regarding the dire straits of state finances in both Michigan and California. Both of those states have well reported problems. In Michigan we see some evidence of how well that state is doing by looking in part at Detroit as we did on Friday. I wasn't going to excerpt, but let's look at California: As of July 2009, California's...

[Dubious claim: Global warming detected 4,000 meters beneath the ocean's surface] At such depths and being so remote, Snelgrove assumed they would find little evidence of human impacts on habitat and ecology. But even at 4,000 meters he said they detected the effects of climate change through warming temperatures and a depletion of food sources. [Can we see some data to back up this claim'] Green Inc....

Instapundit CLIMATEGATE STORY makes the Washington Post in a big way. And don’t miss Charlie Martin’s piece on what it all means. Yes, the story of the hacked document dump from the Climate Research Unit at East Anglia University (UK) does make the WaPo, but in a very dishonest and disingenuous piece of “reporting.” The whole thing is [...]

Jonathan highlights an Instapundit discussion that caught my eye, too. The discussion is about mammograms and the latest proposed guidelines for screening: do the guidelines represent good science, or are they simply meant to save money (these are not mutually exclusive goals)? I don’t know the science, and don’t have any reason to distrust the [...]
