Snake in the grass or perhaps in the garden. What does Ann Coulter and Joe Wilson have in common? They are both political operatives.

Joe Wilson lied. Illegal immigrants can get health care insurance, so long as they pay for it in full without government funds.

After Congress comes back in January, having passed the National Health Care Insurance Reform, the next topic on the agenda is Immigration Reform. Get the picture? Joe Wilson picked a 'quiet moment' to 'strategically' place the words 'out there' to idiots like the Murdock tribes.

If Wilson were successful, the entire distraction would incorporate anger over immigration and health care into one big storm of emotion that would carry them into November 2010.

Wilson is a snake, no different than the Right Extremists that 'lie like rugs.' The aggressive act mimiced the actions of activists at the town hall meetings. It was deliberate. It was a political maneuver and he should be severely sanctioned to 'make an example' of the jerk. If a legislator lowers their standard this much, he'll do anything.

Censure !!! If not censure, impeachment !

Joe Wilson, Van Jones, and the watermelon (click title to entry - thank you)
Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) showed a grave lack of respect for the president and congressional protocol when he shouted, "You lie!" at Mr. Obama as he insisted in his speech last night that health care reform would not mean insuring illegal immigrants. (The president was not lying.)...

Specter Calls for Censure of Wilson (click here)
By Garance Franke-RutaSen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.) called Thursday for the censure of Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) for shouting "You lie!" at President Obama as the president addressed a joint session of Congress on Wednesday night.
"There ought to be a reprimand or censure of Rep. Joe Wilson to discourage that kind of conduct in the future," he Tweeted.
"Rep. Wilson apologized immediately afterward but I don't think that's adequate," he wrote just moments before.


Expulsion, Censure, Reprimand, and Fine: Legislative Discipline in the House of Representatives (click here)
Summary
The House of Representatives is expressly authorized within the United States Constitution (Article I, Section 5, clause 2) to discipline or “punish” its own Members. This authority of the institution of the House to discipline a Member for “disorderly Behaviour” is in addition to any criminal or civil liability that a Member of the House may incur for particular misconduct, and is a device or procedure designed not so much as merely a punishment of the individual Member, but rather ultimately as a measure to protect the institutional integrity of the House of Representatives, its proceedings and its reputation....

If GMC decides to continue with ownership of Opel, then they planned it from the beginning...

...lying all along the way. I do believe that is criminal in intent. After all, there is no proven performance of GMC's ambitions and absolutely NO REASON to believe there is 'sound judgement' in moving in any other direction EXCEPT the sale of Opel as dictated in 'The Agreement.'

...A decision not to sell the European business (click title to entry - thank you) would be bad news for Opel and German jobs.
Paul Newton, of IHS Global Insight, said: "GM has invested a lot of money in GM Europe, especially in research and development in Germany.
"To walk away from this for not a lot of cash (the deals offered by RHJ and Magna), obviously didn't make sense. But the big question is where will they get the money from?
"GM has to find around $6bn - that's a large amount of money."
German unions are threatening to launch mass strikes if the decision goes against them.

GM has not commented on the reports.

There has been very startling events occurring in the North Atlantic. There is significant release of Methane Gas.

Methane gas seeps from seabed outside Svalbard (click here)

A scientific study shows that the powerful greenhouse gas methane is escaping from the Arctic seabed. This could be a response to climate change and higher ocean temperatures and accelerate climate changes even more....

Warming Ocean Contributes to Global Warming (click here)

14/08/09
The warming of an Arctic current over the last 30 years has triggered the release of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from methane hydrate stored in the sediment beneath the seabed....

The Permian Extinction was caused by warming of Earth. Earth's oceans lost 99% of its phytoplanton following the release of Methane Gas from the oceans as the Earth warmed at an incredibly faster rate with atmospheric methane climbing. The only phytoplankton that survived the Permian Extinction was the Silicon based single celled plants.

As carbon dioxide enters the ocean and there is more and more of it in the ocean it produces carbonic acid. Acidic oceans do not allow for the 'shells' of marine species to form. Therefore the oxygen producing single celled plants that are necessary for the breathable oxygen on Earth can't survive as their use of calcium carbonate is vital. However, with acidic seas the calcium carbonate is dissolved and unavailable.

The silicon content of the oceans is far lower than the calcium carbonate, so even though there are some Silicon Based Shelled phytoplanton that survives such a warming event, there is very little to produce enough oxygen to support all life currently on Earth.

For those seeking wealth in the Arctic Ocean and believe the oceans becoming acidic is just a 'sign' that Earth's warming is to benefit to humans, reconsider; when the oceans are warm enough, the phytoplanton that produce your very breath will die.

Carbon dioxide sequestration would be an excellant idea long about now. And. Oh, yeah. The best place to prevent the CO2 from re-entering the troposphere is where it can be frozen all year long. Like. Antarctica. Or. The Arctic Ocean. Stored in seamless stainless steel tanks without VALVES, but, sealed and buried in a location very, very cold so even if a tank should develop a leak, the carbon would be too cold to escape.

Hate to tell you, I told you so. But. I told you so. In 2003 I gave it five years after the vortices showed up. I was a year off.
