BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: One global warming sound bite of Sam Champion, who is the Good Morning America weatherman. He used to be the weatherman for WABC Channel 7 in New York. He's become one of these activists now on global warming, admittedly so. "It's too crucial to ignore." This morning on Good Morning America. He reported on protecting polar bears, “Is global warming endangering them?” There's a bite in this from a guy named John Kostyack, somebody from the National Wildlife Federation. Now, this is old. It happened today, but it's old news. Remember the picture of the two polar bears on the ice floe? That picture was taken in 2004, but the Drive-Bys and the environmentalist wackos and the global warming crowd put that picture out and made it appear that this is a vanishing glacier, and reported that the polar bears are "stranded"? This is also in Gore's movie, and this is why little kids all over the world are crying because they think the polar bears are being killed by global warming, when in fact the truth is the original caption of the picture was that this is an ice floe, sort of a sculpture made by waves. It's naturally occurring. It is not a broken off glacier. It's not drifting off and the polar bears are not stranded. Polar bears can swim 100 miles. They aren't like us. We might be "stranded" on an ice floe if there's no land nearby, and we had no helicopter and no jet ski. We might be in trouble, but they're polar bears, and they can live in icy cold water by design. They love it. Have you ever been to the polar bear exhibit at the Central Park Zoo? I went to the polar bear exhibit, Central Park Zoo in June and it was scorching hot and one of the polar bears was nowhere to be seen. The other polar bear was outside and the zoo people had to come in with giant blocks of ice every hour or so for the polar bear to lay on. You talk about cruelty. Who's doing more to hurt polar bears: the Central Park Zoo putting them out there in June in 100 degree temperature needing blocks of ice, or where they're living, thriving naturally on these ice sculptures made by waves that had nothing to do with global warming or a melting glacier? It was so utterly false and propaganda -- and here's Sam Champion now on Good Morning America doing a story on how we're killing the polar bears.

CHAMPION: The polar bear for many has become a living symbol of the dangers of global warming. The powerful kings of the arctic are finding their habitat shrinking. RUSH: They're not! CHAMPION: Climate change is melting the icy terrain they need to hunt -- RUSH: It's not! CHAMPION: -- also putting their future at risk. RUSH: It's not! KOSTYACK: The habitat of the polar bear is literally melting away underneath it’s feet. RUSH: It's not! CHAMPION: Eskimos considered them wise and powerful, dubbing them "the great lonely roamers." But today the US Fish and Wildlife service is studying whether the remaining 25,000 bears are in danger of disappearing. Not everyone agrees the bears should be protected. Hunters, oil interests, even the state of Alaska has questions about the effects protection would have on oil and gas exploration and commercial shipping. But for many others, the bears are a symbol of a bigger crisis threatening the planet.

RUSH: Yeah, and you are all wrong, and whether you know it or not, you are lying to your audiences. This polar bear picture -- and we'll put it back up at RushLimbaugh.com when we update the website this afternoon to reflect the contents of today's program. This picture was taken in 2004. The original caption mentions what I told you. They're sitting there playing on this "ice sculpture" that was made by the waves. Another guy pretended he took the picture and put a different caption under it, mentioning that polar bear "stranded" on the ice floe or what have you. Now, the guy that took the picture from the website we found all this information on, also was up there in the polar bear region, North Pole and so forth with a buddy, an associate, and they were trying to drill a hole in the ice to take a measurement of the thickness of the ice to prove there's global warming. It was much thicker than they thought. It took 'em a lot longer to dig the hole or to drill the hole. It was like a 12-inch hole.
The guy who was the associate is holding a rifle, watching guard while his buddy, the faux photographer, is drilling the hole. The story points out that the guy is holding a rifle in order to protect them from polar bears because if the polar bears find 'em they'll attack 'em and eat 'em. These guys are prepared to shoot a polar bear, rather than being eaten by it and save the planet. Now, if the polar bears are disappearing and you're up there on their turf and you're drilling holes in their turf that they might fall into, and they come along and they don't like this -- and you're trying to protect them and the environment -- let them eat you! It's the least you can do. But, oh, no! They had shotguns up there. They're going to fire at 'em. Everything I'm telling you is true. Now, I've met Sam Champion a couple times. He's a nice guy, but somebody got to him and he's been co-opted because this is absolute folly -- total folly and BS, as it were.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Stephen, Hartford, Connecticut. Welcome to the EIB Network, sir. Hello.CALLER: Rush. How are you?

RUSH: Fine.CALLER: I want to go back to the global warming -- RUSH: Wonderful.CALLER: -- and propose to help you simplify it. I've been sitting here at home here in Hartford, Connecticut. We are at the butt end, if you excuse my impression, of all of the pollution coming from west to east, including all of the pollution from the coal-fired plants in Ohio where, you know, the government refuses to have them put scrubbers on the plants to take the pollution down.

RUSH: So move.CALLER: Let me try and, if I can, simply say the global warming discussion you've had today, I think, is a giant smoke screen. In fact, if you back it up -- and I haven't seen Al Gore's movie -- but my assumption is, from other readings that I've done, is that global warming, in theory, if it's true, is caused by increased pollution from exhausts or whatever sources, and it degrades the ozone level --RUSH: No, no, no.CALLER: -- and therefore we get more and more --RUSH: No.

CALLER: -- of the sun's rays through and we are cooking ourselves. Is that correct?RUSH: No. I'm just going to be as honest with you as I can.CALLER: Okay.RUSH: That's entirely wrong.CALLER: Okay.RUSH: There is nothing in that that's accurate.CALLER: Okay.RUSH: The ozone is not being depleted. We're not cooking because of it. You're freezing your tush out there in Hartford. Aren't you curious about how this is happening?

CALLER: No, I'm not looking at... I think the science has looked at centuries, not March 8. It is cold today.RUSH: Records only go back 150 years in this temperature business. That's another thing that's fraudulent. Look, if you want to talk about the pollution coming from Ohio, please don't leave out the pollution coming your way from China.CALLER: Oh, absolutely.RUSH: Well, okay.CALLER: Absolutely.

RUSH: China is not guilty of anything! They're not even subject to any restrictions based on the Kyoto treaty. This is all aimed at the United States, but the vast majority of CO2, which is the number one greenhouse effect gas, occurs naturally: water vapor and other natural sources. Automobiles, these smokestacks in Ohio? (I told you people that they hate you in Ohio in the Northeast.) Four percent of green house gas is manmade.

Based on a president being elected with a primary focus on how the Iraq war is “going,” the Republican Party would go down in flames (today), if the elections were held, at the moment!
American’s “memory” is very short, and the people will vote for “the worse of two evils!”
You can see how it’s “playing out!”

If the war goes on (another 18 months) until 2008, the Congressional democrats go along with the republicans, and they don’t have the balls to (startlingly) “stand up” against G. W. Bush, a significant number of people will be killed!
If the war, death, destruction, and mayhem stop, this year, however,
there will be 10 months of tranquility (thereabout),
then the Middle East will go up in flames;
attacks on Syria, Iran, Palestine, Haiti, Somalia, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia, Lebanon, Russia, China, wherever possible;
we may have a nuclear war;
more “weird” “agendas” will happen/come,
and 20 years of death & destruction is to come;
people will be on the edge of starvation!
So, which do we choose!? War until next year (or beyond), or the alternative!!!???

“The Attorney General went up and gave a very candid assessment, and answered every question he possibly could answer, answered as honestly as he could. Some Senators didn’t like his explanation! This is an honest, honorable man, in whom I have confidence!” – G. W. Bush
www.impeachgonzales.org
Obstruction of justice, perjury, false!

Alright, Congressional democrats & republicans, if you want a war, “STEP UP,” bring your kids with you, & JOIN THE FIGHTING and WAR!

Oil companies gouging us!
There is no free market!

We’re “overdue” for a “cheese-head” government (president, Congress, U. S. Supreme Court); they’re overthrowing everything!

Congressional democrats aren’t listening, now! Where do we turn!!!???
How come we get it, and those (in power) don’t!!!???
Are they addicted (enthusiastic, keen, excited, captivated, obsessed, passionate) to the power!!!???
It’s a safety valve for them!

The margin of “victory” is going to be very close, again, in 2008; it’s (totally) disgusting!
They may pull Jeb Bush out of a black hat!
Rudy Giuliani is (morally) a pig, and so is Mitt Romney! Where are they going to go! They may (very well) go to Jeb Bush!!!

Dobson speaks to (his) “followers;” they’re not listeners, they’re followers!
They’re putting out smoke!
How much have the republicans been wrong on? They haven’t been right on a single thing!!!

G. W. Bush says that: “Osama Bin Laden used 9.11 as a ‘down payment,’” that “Bin Laden is using Iraq as a ‘staging ground’ for terrorists!”
Hell, that’s exactly what G. W. Bush is doing; using 9.11 as staging ground for
terrorists, & terrorism, unending war, violence, suffering, destruction of
American democracy!!!
This is what G. W. Bush throws up every time! It’s the “agenda!” We’re moving
toward fascism, imperialism, tyranny, despotism, totalitarianism, dictatorship,
destruction of the Constitution, ! G. W. is planning to not (ever) leave office!

“Heaven’s NO,” we don’t trust the president!

We (all) are making a “huge mistake!”

The anti-war people are at the end of their rope(s)!

With G. W. Bush’s “attitude” and “discare,” we are at a “reluctance” to be (more) “bold!”

Ballooning deficits!
Geo-political concerns!

It’s (all) a “wrong-headed policy!”

It’s UTTER CHAOS!

5.23.7
PLAN B IS ALREADY IN THE WORKS: 200,000!!!
G. W. Bush is (quietly, with much evil) on track to “doubling” (200,000) the troops by the end of 2007; we can be (absolutely) “heart-broken;” G. W. Bush keeps doing what he wants to do! There is an “escalation!” We can’t answer for the democratic leadership and what their motives are! It’s (ultimately) the republicans who will pass it because it’s a republican bill (legislation)!
This, probably, runs the risk of “splitting the Democratic Party!”
They have a “plan B” for another strategy, which means that this war will “never” end; this is (about) “forcing a change in policy, and saving lives!” This is about “what is wrong!” This has the effect of “the sun setting upon them!”

This is the University of Absolute Truth

We’re being “dogged” on our fuel consumption!!!
www.ca40g.com
It’s revolutionary stuff!
Check it out for yourself!

Why shouldn’t they (Corporate-government) give out the “secrets?” We’re dumb enough to buy it (gasoline)!

5.23.7
Monica Goodling says that she thinks that the “attorney firings” were not politically motivated!
But Monica Goodling admits that she violated law and considered the “attorney ‘applicants’” based on their “political motivations/leanings!”
(Interesting, attractive, fascinating, attention-grabbing, out of the ordinary, remarkable, exciting, appealing, motivating, inspiring, stirring, rousing, gripping, compelling, mesmerizing, thrilling)!

I’m disappointed as a democrat, as an American, as a taxpayer!

A NO vote is “a vote for change;” we do know that!

Newt Gingrich is (totally) “off his rocker;” he’s an “extremist;” we don’t buy his “garbage!”

G. W. Bush, in 2003, said (that he’s): “uh, I’m (truly) not concerned about Osama Bin Laden!”

5.23.7
If the democrats act this way, have no “backbone,” vote for ongoing war, vote for troop increase, vote for more war funding (to an all volunteer military)!!!???
The Congressional democrats (and republicans) lose a lot of “respect!”
They “enable” the G. W. Bush administration because they’re (politically) scared!
They don’t think that they can, politically, get out of that “box!”
They’re afraid to stand up to something unless it’s veto-proof!
They’re “politically tap-dancing,” they’re “spineless,” they’re being forced to accept the “requirements” of the G. W. Bush administration!
How can we (the people) stand for something if we don’t believe in Congress!!!???
We can be embarrassed by their lack of leadership, their “wimpiness,” their cowardessness! This is “hypocrisy” of the shoddier order!
They’re “framing this” as not a “blank check” to G. W. Bush! They’re dead wrong!
The Congressional democrats reflect that they’re being very clever with this! And they’re not clever (brainy, smart, bright, quick, witty)!

www.gravel2008.com Mike Gravel

THEY’RE NOT DOING ANYTHING TO END THE WAR!!!

EMPOWER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!
EMPOWER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!
EMPOWER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!
EMPOWER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!
EMPOWER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!

I tell it how it is!
How’s that for a deal!?

5.23.7
80% of American’s want an increase in the minimum wage! $7 or $8 (hourly) is no good, too, given the increase in the “cost of living!” Even $12 is a bit too low!
Congressional democrats don’t know what to do in reading the pulse of the American people!!
What are the Congressional democrats afraid of? They won’t stand up and say the truth! They want “political comfort” over “political action!”

It doesn’t matter how often you put lipstick on a pig; it’s still a pig!

The troops/soldiers are not for the Bush administration!!!

Harry Reid says: “we don’t have a veto-proof Congress!”
The Congressional Democratic Party is “bowing down” to the president!
The democratic leadership is bending (meandering, circuitous, winding) to G. W. Bush’s demands!
They’re not focused on “reconstruction;”
They’re focused on “social order!”
We’re screwed!

5.23.7
This isn’t the last “escalation!”
200,000 (troops’ “lives”), folks; it’s not going to stop!!!
We’ll be in Iraq maybe 10 years
Congressional republicans & democrats are more interested in saving their careers than doing what’s right for the American men & women (people)!

5.23.7
You and I don’t matter, anymore; those elected are more concerned about saving their “fannies” than working for the American people!

If one of the republicans get elected, next president, we are WAY SCREWED!

5.23.7

I do not support the proposed immigration deal.

I support "legalizing" immigrants.

Although I (definitely) support strengthening the borders, I do not support keeping out immigrants and the "criminalization" of immigrants and the "illegalization" of immigrants! Doing so disenfrachises & disrespects “humanity!”

Do I support or oppose the negotiated deal to address the illegal immigrant situation? Which of the provisions listed by the Associated Press below do I agree with? Which do I oppose. I'm telling Congress and the President my views as there will be a vote before Memorial Day.

ON CURRENT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS:

I support:
"They could come forward immediately and receive probationary legal status."

I support:
"Bill creates a four-year, renewable "Z" visa for those present within the U.S.
unlawfully before Jan. 1, 2007."

I do not support (any fees & fines, or their head of household returning to their home country):
"Undocumented immigrants may adjust status to lawful permanent residence once
they pay $5,000 in fees and fines and their head of household returns to their
home country."

I support "progress," but I support giving full rights to all immigrants:
"People under age 30 who were brought to the U.S. as minors could receive their
green cards after three years, rather than eight."

All immigrants should be given full American's rights & citizenship:
"Undocumented farmworkers who can demonstrate they have worked 150 hours or
three years in agriculture can apply for green cards."

I support "citizenship," immediately; no delay:
I do not support:
"No green cards for "Z" visa holders can be processed until "triggers" for border
security and workplace enforcement have been met, estimated to take 18 months.
Processing of green cards for holders of "Z" visas would begin after clearing an existing backlog, which is expected to take eight years."

ON BORDER SECURITY:

I support strengthening the borders!
I do not support:
"Hire 18,000 new border patrol agents."

I do not support:
"Erect 200 miles of vehicle barriers and 370 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexico
border."

I do not support:
"Erect 70 ground-based radar and camera towers along the southern border."

I do not support:
"Deploy four unmanned aerial vehicles and supporting systems."

Immigrants should never be apprehended, and they must be given freedoms & liberties:
"End the program in which illegal immigrants are released upon apprehension."

I do not support:
"Provide for detaining up to 27,500 aliens per day on an annual basis."

Give full working rights & full human/civil/equal rights to all humans! Give full rights, give full benefits, give social justice!
I do not support:
"Use secure and effective identification tools to prevent unauthorized work. "

ON WORKPLACE ENFORCEMENT :

I do not support:
"Require employers to electronically verify new employees to prove identity and work
eligibility. "

I do not support:
"Increase penalties for unlawful hiring, employment and record keeping violations. "

I do not support:
"GUEST WORKERS (requires border security measures to be in place first) "

Give full human rights to every immigrant!
I do not support:
"Create a new temporary guest worker program with two-year "Y visas," initially
capped at 400,000 per year with annual adjustments based on market
fluctuations."

Give full human rights to all immigrants!
I do not support:
"Workers could renew the Y visa up to three times, but would be required to return
home for a year in between each time. Those bringing dependents could obtain
only one, nonrenewable two-year visa.
Families could accompany guest workers only if they could show proof of
medical insurance and demonstrate that their wages were 150 percent above the
poverty level. "

ON FUTURE IMMIGRANTS:

Recognize all humans, and give them full human rights!
I do not support:
"Spouses and minor children of U.S. citizens and permanent residents would be
eligible for green cards based purely on their family connections, but other relatives such as adult children and siblings would not. "

Human rights to all immigrants!
I do not support:
"380,000 visas a year would be awarded based on a point system, with about 50
percent based on employment criteria, 25 percent based on education, 15 percent
on English proficiency and 10 percent on family connections. "

Human rights to every person in the U. S! Human/civil/equal rights to every human!
I do not support:
"Apply new limits to U.S. citizens seeking to bring foreign-born parents into the
country. "

Human rights to every person, please! NO LIMITATIONS!
I do not support:
"Visas for parents of U.S. citizens would be capped annually at 40,000 and those for
spouses and children at 87,000."

Republicans (in power) are trying to get around “openness” by privatizing everything; going private!

5.23.7
At Jerry Falwell’s funeral (5.22.7):
There were no republican “officials” (there)!

Rudy Giuliani failed to keep the New York citizens safe, even on 9.11!
And G. W. Bush failed to keep the American people safe, even on 9.11!
Yes, I’m angry!

Republicans are “supposed” to lie, even when they are under oath; as we see in Alberto Gonzales, so well!

Republicans like for us “humans” to have a painful, crappy life! That’s what republicans are (always) about!!!

“They always advocate for ‘no nation building,’ a ‘noninterventionist foreign policy,’ ‘no friendship’ with other countries, ‘investment’ in war (so carelessly) ‘without end!’ Nothing changed with 9.11; ‘noninterventionist foreign policy’ was a major factor. We’re building an embassy, and 14 bases, in Iraq; we’re in Iraq, to be targeted by Al Qaeda! We’re inciting hatred; they attack us because we’re over there (in Iraq)!
– Ron Paul
Mr. Ron Paul (republican presidential nominee) told the truth!!!

John McCain “never” shows up for Senate votes!
He’s (now) being told to start showing up for Senate votes, or resign!
Sounds like a lazy, indolent, idle, lethargic, languid, sluggish, slothful, no good, despicable “ass!”

Falwell misused the pulpit for so many years to spread bigotry, hatred, divisiveness, division; doing it at the expense of the poor and the sick!
He wanted to talk about the sexuality of “Tinky Winky,” and the social impact it had on society and our children!!!

“Oceans no longer protect us!” – G. W. Bush
Oceans no longer protect us, not even from toddlers (two year olds)!

The republican presidential nominees are “scoring points off of the ‘dead bigot’” (Jerry Falwell)!

“We were attacked because they hate our freedom!” – Rudy Giuliani

Republicans are the saddest group of people I’ve ever seen!!! They have absolutely “NOBODY” on the presidential nominee stage; old guys beating up on each other, a geriatric version of “Fightclub!” The saddest, saddest, saddest bunch of old men; “we are the G.O.P!!!” The Mormon wants to double the size of Gitmo!

In light of all “the stuff” that republicans should have known!
Aren’t “Christians” people of “principle;” married to “integrity!!!???”

“America needs a military where our best and brightest are willing to serve!” – G. W. Bush
Where did he see humans in Iraq!!!??? KILL, KILL, KILL !!!
“I OCCUPY;” that’s how you run the “occupation!”
“Although I entered as a debater, I was greeted as a liberator!!!”

“Torture is good; we should torture more!!!”

5.23.7
Al Gore tells that he’s not interested in the presidency run, currently, and he says that he “will not rule out a campaign for the White House at some point in the future!”

“it’s our country, your country, my country; by god, let’s take it back!”

5.22.7
*On the democratic side, the presidential (nominee) field is very strong, well-built, tough!
*On the republican side, there, really, is no presidential candidate; they’re untrustworthy, scary, unreliable, undependable, dishonest, not to be trusted,
not reliable, deceitful, disloyal, treacherous!

5.22.7
Air America Radio Poll:
88% of American’s say/call “impeachment” for G. W. Bush!

G. W. Bush plays the “terror card;”
“Be afraid; be very, very afraid!”

Once people are educated, it’s AMAZING what they can do!!!

G. W. Bush is running out of time; it’s a roller coaster, up & down, up & down; the people are getting tired! We’re “tired!”

5.22.7
G.W. Bush says that he believes “there will be no more killing & death in Iraq!” He (G. W.) has totally lost touch with reality!!!

5.22.7
“Al Gonzales has done nothing wrong;
it’s pure political theatre;
there’s no wrong doing on Gonzales’ part;
people need to be more ‘sober’ when they confront these issues;
I fully support Gonzales!” – G. W. Bush

5.22.7
A “reversal” in Farmers Branch, TX!!!

We’re the largest debtor nation that started/began under Ronald Reagan!

For Jimmy Carter, dissent is cancelled overnight!
Now, he says that he wasn’t talking (personally) about any president!
That he was talking about the foreign policy of Richard Nixon!
The Bushies are saying that Jimmy Carter was acting irrelevant, sad, & reckless!
It’s bad, today (in America), to have strong opinions; to hate the Bush administration!!!

“I get criticized a lot!” – G. W. Bush

5.22.7
The entire (13,000) fleet of yellow cabs (in NYC) are going green (fuel efficient, within five years)! The famous NYC taxi cabs will become a thing of the past; they’re gas guzzlers, getting 15 miles to the gallon!

Memorial Day should be a day to protest the war!
It’s a “best” way to celebrate the day!!!
It should always be a day “of protest!”
Attention of the day is focused on those who put on the uniform; they were sent on a fool’s errand!
The government calculates it well!
Protest this war every day; what the hell are people being silent about!?
Protest the misuse, mistreatment, & abuse of the U. S. military!
The best way to honor & support the troops is to bring them home!
Some believe that opposing the president’s policy (foreign and at home) is like spitting on the troops!!! WHATEVER!!!

5.22.7
THE HEATED BATTLE BETWEEN MCCAIN & ROMNEY CONTINUES!
John McCain, referring to the landscapers of Mitt Romney’s homeplace:
“Maybe he’ll get his small varmint gun & drive those guatamalans off his lawn,
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!”
John McCain is a “sick” guy, & he’s got a thin skin!!!

THE SMITHSONIAN ALTERS AN EXIBIT ON CLIMATE CHANGE FEARING POLITICAL HEAT!
The Smithsonian museum is caving in to G. W. Bush’s denial & “ignorance” (“lack of knowledge,” “unawarness”) of global warming! The museum has “watered down” their exhibit (to pacify the Bush administration), so that they could definitely (without doubt, categorically, undeniably, positively, certainly, absolutely) receive their funding! You count on these people to have (comprise, boast, encompass, contain, cover) the truth maybe (“global warming: ‘maybe yes,’ & ‘maybe no’”)! Even the Smithsonian can cave in to the G. W Bush administration!
G. W. Bush Won’t do anything about global warming!
The Bush administration has to give the epa the authority to do “anything” about it
The Supreme Court ruled that the EPA has to regulate global warming!
The EPA (still) won’t do so because the Bush administration doesn’t believe in global warming!

Congressional democrats are “folding in” on their Iraq stance & war funding!
They’re giving president Bush a “blank check!”

G. W. Bush supporting Alberto Gonzales is political theatre!!!
Bush’s “agenda” is political theatre!

DAY OF ACTION TO RESTORE LAW AND JUSTICE
ACLU
www.aclu.org
June 26th, 2007


For nearly seven years, our core values of freedom and fairness have been eroded, from the suspension of habeas corpus and due process, to shameful acts of torture, CIA kidnappings and secret prison programs.
On June 26, 2007, join us in Washington, D.C. as we call on Congress to restore habeas corpus, fix the Military Commissions Act, and restore all our constitutional rights. Rally with us outside the Capitol, then help deliver our urgent message in person to Members of Congress. This is your chance to make your voice heard!

On June 26, you’ll join activists from around the country to demand the restoration of habeas corpus and all our constitutional rights. We’ll be in touch with you in the coming days, to tell you more about the Day of Action to help you plan your trip.As part of our Day of Action, we’ll deliver petitions to Congress from people all over the country who are demanding a return to our fundamental values of freedom and fairness. We need 100,000 signatures. Please add yours.
Thanks again for being part of this historic effort to Restore Our Constitutional Rights.
Learn more about habeas corpus and the fight to fix the Military Commissions Act.

5.11.7
A majority in Congress still hasn’t gotten the message that it’s time to end the war in Iraq. Yesterday, the House rejected legislation requiring the withdrawal of U.S. military troops from Iraq and then approved nearly $100 billion in additional funding for war.

If the president does it, it’s not illegal!

A man ran through Germany, naked, yesterday; he was ordered to pay a $270.00 fine; he said that he didn’t know that “streaking” was illegal!

Study Reveals Top 10 Wettest U.S. Cities
Andrea ThompsonLiveScience Staff WriterLiveScience.com
Tue May 22, 7:30 AM ET

Do you think Seattle is the rainiest city in the United States? Well, think again.
Mobile, Alabama, actually topped a new list of soggiest cities, with more than 5 feet of rainfall annually, according to a study conducted by San Francisco-based WeatherBill, Inc.
The Southeast dominated the most rainy list, while the Pacific Northwest never enters the list until Olympia, Washington pops up at number 24.
The 10 rainiest cities in the U.S. by amount of annual rainfall include:
Mobile, Alabama--67 inches average annual rainfall; 59 average annual rainy days Pensacola, Florida--65 inches average annual rainfall; 56 average annual rainy days New Orleans, Louisiana--64 inches average annual rainfall; 59 average annual rainy days West Palm Beach, Florida--63 inches average annual rainfall; 58 average annual rainy days Lafayette, Louisiana--62 inches average annual rainfall; 55 average annual rainy days Baton Rouge, Louisiana--62 inches average annual rainfall; 56 average annual rainy days Miami, Florida--62 inches average annual rainfall; 57 average annual rainy days Port Arthur, Texas--61 inches average annual rainfall; 51 average annual rainy days Tallahassee, Florida--61 inches average annual rainfall; 56 average annual rainy days Lake Charles, Louisiana--58 inches average annual rainfall; 50 average annual rainy days
The study ranked 195 cities by the amount of rainfall they received annually over a 30-year period, although Olympia actually had the most rainy days on average across the three decades (63) of all the cities in the study. Mobile came in second on the latter scale, with 59 average annual rainy days.
Southeastern cities are so prevalent on the list because the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico fuel storms that frequently soak the region, particularly between June and November.
The study also found that in the past 30 years, the East and Southeast seemed to be getting wetter, while the West got drier. Florida, Louisiana and Alabama were the wettest states, while California, Montana, Nevada and Arizona were the driest (Las Vegas took the top spot for driest city).
Average rainfall was highest in the United States between July and September and lowest between January and March.
