I’ve reported on this for over 10 years. What is this? It’s that the global warmist’s and the lackey press and politicians have been driving the belief global warming is such a disaster we have to change everything or die in 10 years.
Despite the scientific reports that show NO global warming in the last 10 years we are told there was. Such a mockery of people’s intelligence!Notice the report referenced below is noy from ANY USA news source.
Year after year we are told of all the hot spots in the world as proof warming is happening. But we seldom see anything like that reporting when it comes to the cold spots. An article is below on Russia.
Russia is enduring its harshest winter in over 70 years, with temperatures plunging as low as -50 degrees Celsius. Dozens of people have already died, and almost 150 have been hospitalized.
The country has not witnessed such a long cold spell since 1938, meteorologists said, with temperatures 10 to 15 degrees lower than the seasonal norm all over Russia.

WH: Benghazi Attack Drone Footage Went To DoD, Not Us
Do you really believe this? It’s like Obama slept through the bin Laden raid.
It’s unreal – it’s like Obama jetting off to Vegas the afternoon he announced the Benghazi, Libya attacks
He’s out there doing entertainment dinners at the White House, TV spots, golf, etc etc. WHERE is this man’s head? The country is suffering mightily and he plans 4 week vacations to Hawaii??

Since returning from a trip to southeast Asia on Nov. 21, President Obama has managed to play three rounds of golf but has met face-to-face only once with Speaker John A. Boehner, the man with whom he is trying to strike a deal on taxes and spending that could prevent another recession.
With the deadline for going over the “fiscal cliff” less than three weeks away, the president’s schedule this week is exceptionally light. It does not include any time on the links with Mr. Boehner, Ohio Republican, who is also an avid golfer.
On Monday, Mr. Obama’s only public event was a trip to Detroit, where he held a campaign-style rally with union auto workers that was ostensibly a push for middle-class tax cuts but mainly showcased Mr. Obama’s criticism of Michigan’s new “right-to-work” labor law.
“It seems to me, that time would have been better spent here in Washington, D.C., working on the fiscal cliff, but he was in Michigan,” said Sen. Lamar Alexander, Tennessee Republican.
On Tuesday, Mr. Obama had lunch with Vice President Joseph R. Biden and spoke to Mr. Boehner by phone late in the day. The president spent much of his evening with first lady Michelle Obama posing for photographs with members of the White House press corps and their guests at a holiday party. (Mr. Obama actually has performed this function twice in the past week; there was another media holiday party at the White House on Dec. 5).
On Wednesday, the president held a meeting and conference call with mayors of both parties from around the country, seeking support for his proposal to raise taxes on families earning more than $250,000 per year. It was his only scheduled event of the day, aside from the president’s routine daily briefing.
White House press secretary Jay Carney defended the president’s schedule Wednesday, saying he is working hard to reach a deal with Republicans. He said part of that effort includes marshaling public support for the president’s fiscal position with events like the one in Michigan.
“I think you’ve seen the president actively engaged in moving the process forward,” Mr. Carney said. “The president has made clear his willingness to negotiate and compromise.”
Mr. Obama has spoken to Mr. Boehner by phone several times, conversations that have been described as everything from “curt” to “cordial.” Nobody on either side has ventured to describe them as “productive.”
When he’s not speaking to the speaker, the president has been hosting more holiday parties, an obligatory part of any president’s role at this time of year. An administration official said the White House is hosting more than 25 holiday parties this month; a White House spokesman wouldn’t confirm that number but said the president and first lady are hosting parties for “volunteers, members of Congress, White House staff, Secret Service personnel, White House reporters and Americans from across the country.” In all, about 14,000 people will attend a White House party or reception this holiday season.
In addition, Mr. Obama attended a holiday concert on Sunday at the National Building Museum and presided at the national tree-lighting ceremony along the National Mall on Dec. 6.
Among the few other events on Mr. Obama’s schedule of the past three weeks were a Dec. 3 meeting with the prime minister of Bulgaria, a Cabinet meeting on Nov. 28 and a private lunch at the White House on Nov. 29 with his vanquished Republican opponent, Mitt Romne

This scandal is just getting deeper – now it’s confirmed a DOD drone watched the breach of the gate and setting fire to the compound. Of course we know NOTHING was done about it.
But, the press and Obama lies corps have tried again to insulate his incompetence and disregard for America by claiming the feed was never sent to the White House. What??????? An attack on the sovereign territory of the USA on 9-11, no less – not sent to the White House?
I copied the whole article below bec ause I believe it might be one they scrub off the net.

Live video from a drone flying over the U.S. Consulate during the Sept. 11 terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, was monitored at a Defense Department facility, but was not fed to the White House, senior officials say.
The Obama administration has declined to respond to media requests for details about who was watching the live video, but a senior defense official told The Washington Times that “the surveillance aircraft captured footage of events on the ground” and “it wasn’t available that night at the White House.”
The officials said the “overhead footage was available at a DOD location,” and they declined to comment further.
Questions about the drone video have largely gotten lost amid the raucous political theater that has arisen in the aftermath of the Benghazi attack, in which U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, former Navy SEALs Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, and State Department officer Sean Smith were slain.
Some close observers of the Benghazi attack’s aftermath are hoping that details about the video will emerge when the findings of the State Department’s Accountability Review Board investigation into the attacks are eventually made public.
The review board has conducted its work in secrecy, and its findings and recommendations are expected to draw heavily from classified intelligence about the attack.
On Friday, Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Florida Republican and chairwoman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, announced that Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton would testify publicly about the findings, but gave no date for her appearance.
The State Department this week suggested that the review board findings may be imminent. Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters Monday that when Mrs. Clinton announced the board’s members in late September, she “asked them to try to meet a 60- to 65-day timeline.”
That would mean the findings could be released during the coming days. “I don’t have any reason to think that we’re off base there, but obviously we want them to do it, do it right,” Mrs. Nuland said.
Various video footage
The digital camera aboard what defense officials have described as an “unarmed surveillance” drone, meanwhile, was one of several that recorded portions of the Benghazi attack.
Closed-circuit security cameras fixed to the consulate’s outer security walls also captured images.
A senior State Department official said during an Oct. 9 background briefing that one camera “on the main gate” of the Benghazi diplomatic mission showed “a large number of men, armed men, flowing into the compound” at about 9:40 p.m. on Sept. 11 — the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the U.S.
Footage from that camera is thought to be what Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper, the Obama administration’s top intelligence official, has shown to lawmakers on Capitol Hill during two recent classified briefings about the Benghazi attack.
“It was very difficult to watch,” Rep. Thomas J. Rooney, Florida Republican and a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said Dec. 5 after one of the briefings. “That is U.S. sovereign territory, and for people to just walk in like a street mob and light the embassy on fire it just made you feel extremely helpless.”
It is unclear whether footage from the surveillance drone has been included in Mr. Clapper’s briefings.
Defense Department officials have said the drone did not arrive over the Benghazi compound until about two hours after the militants stormed through the facility’s gates.
Critical observers, including one family member of the men who were killed, have questioned whether officials monitoring the drone video missed a chance to launch a more aggressive rescue mission or a counterstrike on the militants.
Response in real time
Senior defense officials argued otherwise during a Nov. 9 background briefing on the Benghazi attack.
“There are people out there who have suggested that an overhead surveillance aircraft could have perfect visibility into what was happening on the ground, and on that basis alone, you could send in a team,” one senior defense official said. “That is not necessarily how things work.
“You get a lot of good information from a surveillance aircraft, but it doesn’t necessarily provide you a complete and instant picture of what is happening on the ground. If you’re going to undertake military action, you’d better have solid information before you decide to take the kinds of steps that are required to effectively complete a military mission of this sort.”
A senior U.S. intelligence official, meanwhile, has told The Times that the CIA’s personnel in Benghazi “responded to the situation on the night of 11 and 12 September as quickly and as effectively as possible.”
“The security officers in particular were genuine heroes,” said the official, noting that CIA personnel drove to the site of the attack within 25 minutes of the alarm first being raised and “put their own lives on the line to save their comrades.”
The official said a support team was scrambled from the Libyan capital of Tripoli and, despite having to put together a team from scratch and charter a plane to fly them to Benghazi, were able to make the trip in less than four hours.
Officials have declined to comment on whether anyone in Benghazi or Tripoli had access to the drone footage in real time, or whether it was used to help the rescue team find its way into the city from the Benghazi airport.
