End of the World? Part 2 - Lightning Strikes the Statue of Liberty

This could be one of the coolest pictures I've ever seen.  It looks like Lady Liberty is holding her own against the lightning (which can be up to 6x hotter than the surface of the Sun).

Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D) Tough Constitutional Questions

Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D) was asked some tough questions on the constitutionality of the the new health care law.  Specifically, what part of the Constitution gives Congress the authority to mandate that a private citizen buy health insurance.  She doesn't have an answer, instead an she and one of her aides say that "It's time to leave."
She is pressed again and comes back with a list of other bills Congress has passed.

Rep. Schakowsky asks "where did the authority come from for Civil Rights?"  Hmmm, let me think about that for about 1 second, the authority for Civil Rights comes from the 14th Amendment.
You are right though Ms. Schakowsky it was not in the Constitution because our Founders and Framers wanted the Sounhern States to join the Union (we can go more into that later).  But as you can see it is the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, which means that Congress went through the steps necessary Amend the Constitution.

Rep. Jan Schakowsky if you believe in the new Health UnCare Bill so much go through the steps to make it legal, Amend the Constitution.  I Dare You!

We all know that you wont, you can't, nobody wanted this bill expect the far left in this country who want America to look more like Communist China or Russia.

Cooper calling out Rep. Alan Grayson

Anderson Cooper calling out Rep. Alan Grayson on his lies and misleading ads. Notice how he never answers the questions. Grayson's answer is always "Why are you attacking me?"
This one made me smile.

EPA Regulations - Reduction of Global Temps by only 0.0015 Degrees

The EPA which just last year classified CO2 as a danger to your health has just admitted that new regulations would slow construction for years, put at least 80,000 jobs at risk, and within the next 90 years only lower global temperatures by 0.0015 degrees.  So basically, there will be now reduction in global temperature because of this big government regulation.

Has anyone asked anybody at the EPA how a substance that comes out of our body naturally every time we breath can be dangerous to our health?  Whoops, I just endangered myself by taking that last breath.  There's another one, and another, and another.  It's completely ridiculous to label CO2 as being dangerous to your health.
