Comment Re:All or nothing (Score 1) 903

For many nothing and losing all. It is not hard to predict that there will be more uninsured or on Medicaid in April, 2014 than September 2013,

I've dealt with several end of life situations. I can only see cost, frustration,and misery being added by Obamacare in those situations. Although many may benefit by Obamacare, witness hookers, HIV+, uninsurable obesity related conditions, many will not benefit from it either. Others will actively be violated or suffer under Obamacare, such as those in disagreement over standard treatment vs advanced unapproved treatments.

They are wrong about a lot of things. One of the most important aspects of science and integrity is realizing and admitting when a model is busted. After 15-20 years, the GW temperature predictions are rapidly falling out of the 95% interval, even at solar max. You might do more reading of the critics and emergent models.

Mostly the GW "cognoscenti" have withheld physical evidence and records (see ClimateAudit), fudged data (increasingly funky "adjustments"), done poor stats, ignored critics, shepherded reviews, and engaged in wholesale ad hominem, with enforcers like the Piltdown Mann. And many, like Algore have made fraudlent fortunes - fun and profit.

Comment expediency (Score 1) 511

Another judge drops their britches to expediency over the Constitution and the Founders. In a continuing assault on rights, one wonders how long before Americans start appeals to the ultimate Appeals Court of Messrs Colt, Smith and Wesson. Living in a big brother dictatorship is not going to be fun.
