How green is Obama’s new limo?

Reports that the new Obama Presidential limo will be based on the GMC 2500, a gas guzzler which does less than 10 miles per gallon, and not the similar, yet hybrid, Ford Mercury Mariner, might be worrying for ecomentalists that backed Senator Obama in the recent Presidential election.

But there has been some evidence of Obama’s green credentials in recent days, with Mr Obama recycling Brent Scowcroft, a foreign policy advisor to the first President Bush.

More evidence of “the same old policies” is provided by the appointment of Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano, a supporter of the Iraq war, to run the Homeland Security department, and General James Jones, who backed John McCain, as his National Security Adviser. George W Bush's Defence Secretary, Robert Gates is also likely to be retained.

Change has come to America.

Hottest October on record?

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/opinion/main.jhtml?xml=/opinion/2008/11/16/do1610.xml

According to NASA scientist Dr James Hansen, who is one of Al Gore's pals, last month was the hottest October on record.

It seems however that the figures are wrong. Apparently, figures from the previous month were simply been carried forward and duplicated, resulting in unusually high October temperatures.

This is the same person that was recently forced to admit that according to his own research the hottest decade in the 20th century was...the 1930s!

Perhaps some of these climate alarmists should do some wider reading before trying to frighten the world:
