New NASA Data Casts Doubt On Global Warming Models
bonch writes "Satellite data from NASA covering 2000 through 2011 cast doubt on current computer models predicting global warming, according to a new study. The data shows that much less heat is retained by carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere than is assumed in current models. 'There is a huge discrepancy between the data and the forecasts that is especially big over the oceans,' said Dr. Roy Spencer, a co-author of the study and research scientist at the University of Alabama." Note: the press release about the study is somewhat less over the top.

Tea Party is wrong
That's obvious to most non-ideologues.
and the trillion of new debt spent on "stimulus" was actually very effective
Herbert Hoover tried the Tea Party approach to an economic meltdown, and the result was 25% unemployment, breadlines and tent cities. Did you see those things during this meltdown? This time around, shaking money out of the mattresses of cowering capitalists worked.
and that the key to economic growth actually is to hugely increase deficit spending and to raise the rate at which we tax the economy
Well, that's how things panned out during WWII. Maybe we should nationalize most industries as well to fully relive those boom times.
