The War On Christmas

I was forwarded this Muslim-written blog piece about the politically-correct crowd's war on Christmas. A sample:

I believe that replacing “Merry Christmas” with “Happy holidays” is an attack on Christianity for the simple reason that it is. First, you ignore the fact that there are a billion Christians and over a billion Muslims on this planet earth who observe this holiday. Secondly, you are simply disrespecting those whose teachings and values you don‘t like. Haven’t you heard the phrase “Jesus is the reason for the season”?
Read it all.

It is good to see that the politically correct attack on Christmas is obvious to those of other religions.

Thank you Mahmoud.

Peer Review of Global Warming Scientific Skepticism

Global warming religionists have become fond of the claim that there are no peer reviewed scientific studies questioning global warming. That is false.

Here is a list of 450 critical peer-reviewed studies critical of man made global warming.

Moron of the Day: Barbara Boxer

Barbara Boxer is a woman with the ugliest pubic personality of any politician in recent memory, including her berating of a military man who called her "Ma'am" rather than "Senator." She has an ego that just will not quit. As an examplar of a global warming religionist, she wants to kill the messenger, calling "climategate" awkwardly phrased, "e-mail-theft-gate."

The theory seems to be that global warming is not a fraud unless the damning evidence is legally obtained.

What a dunce. And we have California to blame for her. And Nancy Pelosi. And Maxine Waters. Is there something in the water there the breeds mental instability?

Courtroom Deputy Refuses to Apologize.-- Update: Deputy Jailed

On November 6, I reported on the Maricopa County courtroom deputy who violated the trust we lawyers have in courtroom personnel when he snooped in a criminal defense lawyer's file. After a hearing, the deputy was held in contempt and ordered to jail unless he purged the contempt by holding a press conference and apologizing for his actions.

He held the press conference all right, but refused to apologize.

Update: The courtroom deputy, Adam Stoddard, is jailed. Report here.

Contrary to the statements of Deputy Stoddard's union brothers, Deputy Stoddard's actions were reprehensible and unlawful. There appears to be a stand-off brewing in Phoenix. The administrative judge needs to address Sheriff Arpaio and tell him in no uncertain terms what sort of conduct is acceptable in the Maricopa County courtrooms.
