The cause of the surge is solar minimum, a deep lull in solar activity that began around 2007 and continues today. Researchers have long known that cosmic rays go up when solar activity goes down. Right now solar activity is as weak as it has been in modern times, setting the stage for what Mewaldt calls "a perfect storm of cosmic rays."

The Tides Foundation: At the Heart of the Radical Left
Glenn Beck loves using his chalkboard on his hit TV show on FOX News. One thing you’ll notice at the center of many of his artist renderings is a non-for-profit organization called The Tides Foundation. Beck links Tides to ACORN, George Soros, Media Matters for America, Center for American Islamic Relations (CAIR), and the Center for American Progress to name a few. So what’s behind the Tide’s Foundation and how radical are they?

Daschle acts as ‘resource’ to many parties in health care dispute | Muckety.com
Daschle withdrew his name in February from nomination to be secretary of Health and Human Services, citing the outcry over his failure to pay all of his taxes. Yet as The New York Times recently pointed out, “These days it often seems as if Mr. Daschle never left the picture.”

And Indoctrination Begins
Look. No, they don’t have the same devious purposes as Hitler’s Children. Progressives do, however, employ the same techniques.
And. No. There does not exist a handful of reptilian humanoids projecting themselves as a hologram, thus human, who originally came to Earth via Planet Nibiru.
Intentions don’t really matter here though. Because the results will always be the same.

Planned Parenthood Deserves the ACORN Treatment – HUMAN EVENTS
ACORN is losing some of its federal funding in part because of O’Keefe’s video. But the Planned Parenthood story, in which O’Keefe and a friend posing as his pregnant minor girlfriend expose the abortion giant’s willingness to cover up alleged statutory rape, is just as incriminating.

Are Acts of Staged Controversy an Islamist Strategic Tactic? by Madeleine Gruen
Through careful study of terrorist incidents and investigations and study of the histories of the terrorist groups, U.S. law enforcement officers, security officials, and intelligence analysts have developed an understanding of the tactics, techniques and procedures used by terrorists preparing for and conducting attacks. Professionals can usually distinguish between a truly suspicious incident and benign behavior. However, there is a third category of non-violent activities that is more difficult to identify, which we will refer to as "acts of staged controversy."

Holdren says Constitution backs compulsory abortion
WND has obtained a copy of "Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment," published in 1977 and co-authored by Holdren with Malthusian population alarmist Paul R. Ehrlich and Ehrlich’s wife, Ann. As WND reported, the authors argued involuntary birth-control measures, including forced sterilization, may be necessary and morally acceptable under extreme conditions, such as widespread famine brought about by "climate change."

Power Line – Worst foreign policy ever?
A Washington Times editorial makes the case that Obama administration foreign policy is the worst foreign policy ever. It’s an impressive indictment, and I happen to agree with it. Making the necessary changes, American foreign policy in the Age of Obama is what it would be if Alger Hiss or Advise and Consent‘s Robert Leffingwell were president. Michael Barone appropriately finds Obama caught in a time warp.

Big Government » Taxpayer-Funded Propaganda: The ABC’s of the NEA Conference Call
Today, Big Hollywood released a full audio recording and transcript of the NEA conference call. A full review of the call reveals several new and more troubling aspects to what transpired on the August 10th phone call. What is inescapable is that the origin of the call reaches into the highest offices of the White House. It is clear, from the transcript, that the call was orchestrated by the Office of Public Engagement, whose Director, Valerie Jarrett, is among the closest advisors to President and First Lady Obama.

National Endowment for the Arts Renamed National Endowment for Propaganda.
Andrew Breitbart is a national hero. Not only was he the impresario who brought the exposure of ACORN by filmmaker James O’Keefe and actress Hannah Giles to public attention, but he has just followed it up with a blistering exposé of how the White House has endeavored to use the National Endowment for the Arts as a propaganda arm for its left-wing agenda on health care, the environment, education, and “community renewal.”

“Our Time Has Come”, say Islamists planning to lead “at least 50,000 Muslims” to Capitol Hill Friday, September 25. Organizers–including several tied to the 1993 World Trade center attack–boast "the Athan will be chanted on Capitol Hill, echoing off of the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument and other great edifices that surround Capitol Hill…."

Understanding the Cause of Health Care Inflation
Health care inflation is a topic that lends itself to considerable demagoguery and "straw men arguments" from the left, where it is often attributed to capitalism and the free market. Their solution: more regulation and the creation of a massive new government entitlement program to provide every American with "comprehensive" health insurance.

ACORN and corruption go together

Once Upon an ACORN: Why ACORN’s Internal Audit is a Sham
The announcement by ACORN that it is creating a panel of inquiry consisting of its corrupt friends is a fairy tale. ACORN did the same thing last year after an internal scandal but when the honest people on ACORN’s internal panel began asking uncomfortable questions, it cast them out.

America is not normal
What’s the point of being a feminist if you don’t have control over men? Equal rights? Please, that’s not what feminism is about. It’s about having power over men and destroying the family. Matriarchy is the historical model feminists are trying to establish globally under the Communist dictatorship. Feminism is the most successful Communist strategy. It has transformed America.

Fourteen Centuries Of War Against European Civilisation
The Jihad, the Islamic so-called Holy War, has been a fact of life in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Near and Middle East for more than 1300 years, but this is the first history of the Muslim wars in Europe ever to be published. Hundreds of books, however, have appeared on its Christian counterpart, the Crusades, to which the Jihad is often compared, although they lasted less than two hundred years and unlike the Jihad, which is universal, were largely but not completely confined to the Holy Land. Moreover, the Crusades have been over for more than 700 years, while a Jihad is still going on in the world. The Jihad has been the most unrecorded and disregarded major event of history.

Pajamas Media » A Former Radical Goes Back to the Future at the 9/12 March
In 1967, I was the radical Alinsky wrote the rules for. On the political cutting edge, I’d been arguing with fellow students and coworkers for years about Vietnam, and my growing disgust with my country led me down many winding roads of anti-American thought. I was counterculture before there was a name for it, skipping my prom and graduation as “bourgeois,” going barefoot, braless, and unshaven, and collecting tattoos at the only place in town those days — a crummy hole-in-the-wall next to downtown D.C.’s Greyhound station.

So far, Obama’s failing miserably – Jeremy Lott
When he ran for president, George W. Bush promised to be a modest reformer at home and a humble representative of the United States on the world stage. The Al Qaeda-organized-and-funded terrorist attacks of eight years ago changed all that. During his presidency, Bush created massive new government bureaucracies, sent troops into two wars and threatened more as part of America’s war on terror.

Soros: Republic Enemy #1
Soros has been actively working to destroy America from the inside out for some years now. People have been warning us. Two years ago Bill O’Reilly said on “The O’Reilly Factor” that “Soros [is] an extremist who wants open borders, a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous….”

Obama Is Pushing Israel Toward War – WSJ.com
Events are fast pushing Israel toward a pre-emptive military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities, probably by next spring. That strike could well fail. Or it could succeed at the price of oil at $300 a barrel, a Middle East war, and American servicemen caught in between. So why is the Obama administration doing everything it can to speed the war process along?

The 17-year-old victim was white and the teen assailants were black.

It doesn’t appear that the victim did anything to provoke an attack and tried only to defend himself.

The Manchurian Candidate
Those who were surprised by the White House appointment of Van Jones – a self-styled “communist,” and a proponent of the idea that the Katrina catastrophe was caused by “white supremacy,” haven’t been paying attention to developments on the left since the fall of Communism, or to president Obama’s extensive roots in its political culture. Van Jones is the carefully groomed protégé of a network of radical organizations — including Moveon.org — and of Democratic sponsors like billionaire George Soros and John Podesta, former Clinton chief of staff and co-chair of the Obama transition team.

This is in addition to the undercover child prostitution sting videos revealed in recent days on this website.

Obama’s Congress Speech Full of Lies
Barack Obama’s speech to a joint session of Congress this week came as his healthcare plan was dying a slow death on Capitol Hill, the victim of a newly emboldened Republican opposition that has suddenly found its backbone and red-state and Blue Dog Democrats who went wobbly after a hot August of town hall protests. In spite of White House claims that these protests were the work of industry-sponsored “Astroturf,” anyone who attended them (and I did) can tell you that the opposition came from citizens concerned about the health of their families and loved ones.

Why No One Believes Obama – George F. Will
On the 233rd day of his presidency, Barack Obama grabbed the country’s lapels for the 263rd time—that was, as of last Wednesday, the count of his speeches, press conferences, town halls, interviews, and other public remarks. His speech to Congress was the 122nd time he had publicly discussed health care. Just 14 hours would pass before the 123rd, on Thursday morning. His incessant talking cannot combat what it has caused: An increasing number of Americans do not believe that he believes what he says.

A meeting was held in Mexico City last week under the auspices of the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), whose implicit goal is to create a global high-tax cartel.

American Thinker: America Spoke
America spoke September 12th in Washington, DC. Real America. Not black America, not white America, not Hispanic or Asian America, not even conservative or liberal America. Real America. There were mothers, sons, fathers, daughters, newborn children and kids on the way up; there were many, many elderly and a lot of disabled folks, young and old, in wheelchairs. Many of these people had never been to a protest before in their lives. People were pleasant, polite and considerate. There was not a drunken eye in the house. The most unlikely bunch of domestic terrorists one could ever imagine. Contrast that with the Leftists’ "peace" movement in Seattle a few years back.

The massive surge of conservative and libertarian activism on September 12 was unprecedented in American history. The day’s main event was billed as the 9/12 Tea Party on the National Mall.

SlantRight: Are the Early Stages of a New American Revolution Arising?
Fanned by angry contempt for Washington, secession movements have sprouted up in perhaps more than a dozen states in recent years. In Vermont, retired economics professor Thomas Naylor leads the Second Vermont Republic, a self-styled citizens network dedicated to extracting the sparsely populated New England state from "the American Empire."
