Clarence Thomas went through hell in his confirmation to the United States Supreme Court. He is black and conservative. Democrats excoriated him for an unsubstantiated claim by Anita Hill that he liked to make sexually suggestive comments. We were treated to days and days of televised testimony meant to bring this man down. The lynch mob was lead and consisted solely of liberal politicians. Thomas survived these politicians and a bloodthirsty mainstream liberal media to serve as a distinguished voice for constitutionalists on the Court.
There have been other African Americans attacked by liberal politicians and media; Michael Steele, Condoleezza Rice, Cong. Allen West and many others. Liberals believe that African Americans are their voting block, in a weird shall we say, plantation owner way. When a black person doesn't adhere to the democrat party line it's open season.
Just ask Herman Cain.
But Charles Rangel and Maxine Waters, both under indictment for corruption.....nothing to see here, move along. And of course if you should be curious about these two cases...where the evidence has already been proven, you are a racist.
Skin color matters to democrats only when it serves their agenda. And thankfully more and more people of color are figuring that out.

BEST Blows Up
So last week the BEST program of climate research (Berkeley) announced it's results to an anxious pro global warming media. And surprise surprise this non-peer reviewed study showed consistent warming.
The Economist and all other mainstream media outlets were relieved to announce this information. Humans, they concluded, are clearly heating up the planet with the CO2 gases that are released into the air (breathing and coal plants). Most skeptics of anthropogenic global warming cried foul. No peer review? Only land based data? Note: ocean data, has never indicated warming in any studies. None of this counter commentary made it into the frightening articles that were being written.
But uh-oh the co-author of the study has rocked the boat and in fact may have swamped the tub. The skeptics main complaint is that the last 11 years have shown a flat global temperature completely proving wrong the claim that increased CO2 is warming the planet.
Judith Curry is embarrassed to be associated with this study since it clearly had planned all along to mislead and ignore important information.

Lizzie Warren Channels Al Gore in a Bad PR Week
So first, candidate for the US Senate Democrat nomination in Massachusetts Elizabeth Warren says she wants "hicks" to vote for her, or at least the "elite hick" voting block. Being a Harvard professor I'm not sure the hicks in Massachusetts are ready to bear the torches for her. Being the only state that voted for George McGovern in '72 the hick vote is presumably fairly small.
Then, in a Daily Beast interview, she claims to have created the "intellectual foundation" for the Occupy Wall Street crowd. Huh? What kind of affliction causes ultra-libs to lay claim to creating, inventing things that really have no tangible genesis?
The issue here is what kind of person is Elizabeth Warren? It seems that inveterate fabricators such as Al Gore (invented the internet and who claimed his life is the basis for A Love Story) can't help themselves. Al still makes wild claims about Global Warming (Florida and Manhattan are doomed to being flooded and so much more nonsense).
What will Elizabeth claim next? Stay tuned.
