Obama and media continue to push a cap-n-trade when all climate evidence against CO2-caused climate problem

"Cap and Trade" is really "Restrict and Tax"
"Tax and Spend" is really "Tax and Steal" -- or to put it another way -- "Extort and Bribe".

Yahoo News pushing biased stories in support of Obama

Yahoo News is running stories in support of Obama's agenda as well as stories that downplay any opposition and portray it as a fringe minority. Headlining September 14 and 15 newslinks were articles like "GOP 'cranks' dominating debate." Such articles which try to connect the "GOP" with words like "wince", "gasp", "worried", "crackpots" etc. One must not treat Yahoo as a neutral source. Of all the news reports out there, the ones that are given a visible prominence in the www.yahoo.com website invariably include many pro-Obama spinned ones and anti-Republican ones. Another article highlighted in the 14th spoke of healthcare-debate devolving to "rehashing" supposedly already discussed and dismissed as useless ideas like tort reform or other items that the Republicans are supporting.

In contrast to the spin Yahoo News' choice of article headlines presents, look at recent polls. Many key provisions of the Obama health care plan are opposed by over 70 percent of Americans polled. The supposedly old worn-out idea items (according to Yahoo linked articles) are actually strongly supported by the American public if the polls are accurate.

2008 Experiencing Cooler Temperatures -- Despite Continued CO2 increases ---

Here is some hard data -- about cooler temperatures.

Notice how the accu weather meteorologist has to be extremely careful in how he frames things lest his report and its implications cause him to get into trouble because the data point away from the politically correct accepted ideas about alleged man-made climate change.

Notice also how in a separate article in the New York Times, since the data does not confirm "global warming" people hold on to their agenda but try to change the language used to describe it. It is spin.

Yahoo's news link title with subtle unfounded accusations of racism

Yahoo today (June 1, 2009) has a link to an article about Obama Supreme Court nominee Sotomayor. The title of the Associated Press Article is "GOP senators sidestep harsh criticism of Sotomayor". But the link title from the front page of Yahoo, the link title everyone will see who visits Yahoo, is "GOP senators tone down racially charged criticism of Sotomayor." Notice that the link title implies that the GOP senators are being racially prejudiced towards Sotomayor who is Hispanic. Yahoo has deliberately created the association -- GOP senators = bad racists; Sotomayor = victim of racism. But the reality is just the opposite. Criticism of Sotomayor emerged because of her seemingly racist comments. If yahoo had left the AP title in their link, or simply rewritten their own title to be "GOP senators tone down criticism of Sotomayor's perceived racial prejudice," it would have been more accurate. But the editors at Yahoo News show their bias and score a major propaganda victory against the GOP in the minds of unwary readers.
