On Obama's Vanity

Jay Cost, the author of this RealClearPolitics piece on "Obama's Vanity," gives good arguments against presidents appearing on shows like The View.

We agree -- shows of this nature reduce the President's statue. He should save any invitations he receives from them until he becomes an ex-president.

It's Chimp v. U.S. Government in Hurricane Prediction Battle of the Titans

The National Center for Public Policy Research wants to make the point that climate science is in its infancy, so it makes little sense for Congress to adopt hugely-expensive cap-and-trade policies based upon it.

If NOAA's prediction turns out to be more accurate than the one by "Dr. Hansimian" (actually a movie chimp named Kenzie), the National Center says, the Center will post a prominent mea culpa on its website. If Dr. Hansimian's prediction is better, it challenges NOAA to make the chimp an honorary member of its hurricane forecasting team.

More Media Chutzpah

Let us get this straight. New Jersey's Star-Ledger newspaper got the video clip of Governor Chris Christie pulled from YouTube claiming copyright because Christie was scolding one of its reporters?

By that standard, the conservative movement owns the copyright to everything the New York Times has ever written.

Will Congress Create Another Economic Bubble?

Tom Borelli of the National Center for Public Policy Research's Free Enterprise Project and Stuart Varney of Varney & Co. on Fox discuss one of the bigger downsides of a cap-and-trade plan -- the possibility that the whole thing will come crashing down at some future point, harming (often innocent, or at least, naive) investors in the process.

Carbon dioxide has no economic value now. If cap-and-trade is adopted, the government will be placing upon it an artificial value. We already know companies will line up to invest in it, as GE, Goldman Sachs, Duke Energy and others have been lobbying to make certain any cap-and-trade bill Congress adopts has terms favorable (at least temporarily) to them. But at some future date, Congress will change its mind about cap-and-trade, Carbon dioxide will become valueless. Who will be left holding the bag?

Small investors who invested their retirement money, perhaps?

APL Joins Coalition Opposing Waxman-Markey

Americans for the Preservation of Liberty has joined (PDF) a 186-member coalition to fight the Henry Waxman (D-CA) - Ed Markey (D-MA) global warming bill, HR 2454, the so-called "American Clean Energy and Security Act."

The bill would raise domestic energy prices noticably, reduce American competitiveness, and if it had any effect whatsoever on global temperatures, which it probably wouldn't, it would be a tiny one indeed.

CWRA Coming Up for a Vote

R.J. Smith of the National Center for Public Policy Research says the Clean Water Restoration Act is coming up fior a vote in the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on July 18.

This is very bad legislation for anyone who wants to protect property rights. If this bill passes, the federal government will have the authority to regulate every drop of water in the United States, including a temporary rainwater puddle in your back yard.

Some will say that's unconstitutional, and that's true. That said, getting something declared unconstitutional is not easy, nor is it cheap. It is easier to stop the bill from being adopted in the first place.
