Everyone is talking about global warming.  Well how hot is it getting?  Well in some places hotter n Hell.  

On August 29, a record temp of over 29 consecutive days over temperatures over 110.  (112 degrees on that unlucky day.)  Let me go on the record as saying "that sucks."  

The highest recorded temperature was on September 13th, 1922 in El Azizia, Libya.  (139 degrees)

But is this proof of global warming?  Living in an arid desert region, it gets damned hot.  In 1999 there were 43 consecutive days of 120 degree Farenheit recorded in Death Valley.  Explains why people don't live in Death Valley all that much.  

Wow, I'm getting hot just thinking about all this Global warming crap.  I could use a nice cold Slusho to cool me down...

Heh. And I'm sure based on where it was located that it was a dry heat.

Spread it on!

Bellicose Biden
'We're at war,' declared Vice President-elect Joe Biden on the state of the economy, in an effort to rally bipartisan support for Obama's outrageously expensive deficit spending plan. Bet he's glad fellow Democrats spent the past seven years proclaiming that dissent was patriotic.

Worst. President (-elect). Ever.
The latest GBO report states that the 2009 federal deficit is estimated to reach $1.2 Trillion (about 8.5% GDP, and almost tripling 2008's $455B deficit), but Obama wants to press ahead with another $750 Billion on a stimulus plan. That's about as much harm to the economy in one year as Bush accomplished in his last four. Hope and change!

He's Good Enough, He's Smart Enough, and he's a Senator!
Al Franken has won the Minnesota Senate race. Incumbent Norm Coleman has 7 days to file the any bullshit lawsuits challenging the results although 'It's up to him whether such a step is worth the tax dollars it will take to conduct'. Bill O'Reilly, who previously declared Coleman the winner, has not yet weighed in.
