To surfers today passing through here, from PoliSat-Com Happy New Year!·

    The eve of the New Year's arrived,
    the second since innocents died.
    Again we see fit
    to emulate Brits,
    whose courage made Britain survive.

Dec. 30, 2002:  PoliSat.Com's Political Satire/Commentary Daily Update
#01·™©·2002··
The claim that our human endeavors make weather get warmer than "ever."·
·
    Reports say that "science" believes
    we'll find the year Two Thousand Three
    the "hottest" year "ever"
    'cause Mankind's endeavors
    are "warming" the Earth, they perceive.

    In two ways this story misleads: 
    The first is the time-span perceived
    as all-before "ever";
    the next, Man's "endeavors,"
    as "cause" of such heat in Aught-Three.

    To properly use the word "ever"
    the time-span of Earth before records
    would have to be severed
    to call "hottest ever"
    a year that's just hottest on record.

    This seems like a trivial point,
    a sentence with words out of joint,
    but "greenhouse" reporting
    has long been resorting
    to glossing such facts to make points.

    Yet paleontology's findings
    reveal pre-historical cycling
    with decade-long ranges
    for radical changes
    in heat before humans' arriving.

    Though rational analysis fails
    to show that a "Greenhouse" travail
    would not come to be
    without S-U-V's,
    the contrary activists wail.

    Despite all the theories they tout,
    the warming of Earth without doubt
    is caused, au contraire
    by heat in the air
    expelled from the activists' mouths.
·
Inspired by a December 29, 2002, report that "scientists" predict the year 2003 will be the "warmest" year "ever" and that "warming over the past 50 years is mainly due to human activities like burning of fossil fuels." For a rational explanation of why neither such inference from weather records for the last 100 years is scientifically unwarranted, see "Global Warming or Scientific Flatulence?"  --Jim Wrenn, Editor@PoliSat.Com

An earth-shaking marvel:  Some wisdom from Carville.·
·
    For once in my life I confess
    in watching today's Meet the Press,
    I witnessed a marvel: 
    A statement by Carville
    with which I agree, I confess.

    Expressing to all in the nation
    for Mary his deep admiration,
    he humbly avowed
    he's thankful and proud
    for service she rendered the nation.

    Adapting the words of a sage
    to fit in this digital age:  
    The time that is spoken
    by clocks that are broken
    is right at least once in a day.

    It seems that his role as a Dad's
    as good as his viewpoints are bad,
    because he perceives
    his daughters to need
    their mother supported by Dad.
·
Today, on Meet the Press, wisdom emerged for the first time from James Carville's lips when, at the end of the program after spouting his standard partisan lines, he conveyed sincerity in expressing pride in the job Mary did in working for Cheney and gratitude for her decision to place her relationship with their children ahead of her career. --Jim Wrenn, Editor@PoliSat.Com

"I'm leaving" said Matalin, "but James I'll be battling."·

    "Fear not 'cause I still will be battling
    your nemesis, James,
    who's broken his chain

Got billions? Got millions? Got minions?·
·
    The Mouth of the South is contending that terror
    results from American policy errors
    like failing to end
    the poverty trend
    in lands where the Arabs are turning to terror.

    Since assets of Turner are valued in billions,
    the Mouth of the South could reduce terror's minions
    by sending his wealth
    and toasts for good health
    to poor old bin Laden, who struggles on millions.
·
Inspired by a Drudge report of a speech by Ted Turner (at an event celebrating his pledge of 1 billion dollars to the United Nations), at which Turner said, inter alia:  "In the Arab view, America doesn't do enough to help them and that's why they're so angry at it, ... [because] ... [t]he battle against terrorism is a battle against poverty and injustice."  Surely Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, the barbaric murderer of Daniel Pearl, would not have committed such acts of barbarism had he not experienced the "poverty" of attending the London School of Economics.  --Jim Wrenn, Editor@PoliSat.Com.

The Prince of PeeCee's been unable to climb from the basement on cable.·
·
    MSNBC bought the fable
    that Donahue coming to cable
    would clobber The Factor,
    but ratings got flatter
    as we had predicted in April.*

    The Prince of PeeCee was unable
    to climb from the basement on cable
    'cause most who like news
    and views will eschew
    PeeCee when it's featured on cable.
·
Inspired by a Drudge report that Donahue's ratings on MSNBC have flat-lined, which is what PoliSat.Com predicted back in April, 2002, when MSNBC announced plans for Phil Donahue to host a politics/news program opposite The Factor on FoxNews.

For whom are intended the Scuds bound for Yemen?.·
·
    A ship North Korea had sent
    disguised as a load of cement
    contained in its hold
    some Scuds it had sold
    not labeled for whom they were meant.

    Intelligence claims they're intended
    for secret unloading in Yemen.
    For whom's a conundrum.
    We fear it's to someone
    Saddam or al Qaeda's befriended..

Trent Lott proves his brain is lamer than lame. ·

From Santa some toys for good little boys
while Rumsfeld sends "toys" to terrorist boys.
  ·
·
    From Santa we hear that the boys
    are asking for action-type toys
    with Bush and Blair toppling
    Usama bin Laden,
    but what for al Qaedas are suitable toys?

    Said Rumsfeld:   "I plan to be Santa
    for men who are serving Usama
    with presents to cure
    Usama's allure
    with gifts they won't get from their mammas--

    Colombia's 'girlies' on calendars nurtured
    predictable rises in rebel deserters,
    and so we'll bombard
    al Qaedas with cards
    enticing desertion with 'girlies' in burkas."*

[Go here to view Rumsfeld's for "Al Qaeda Trading Cards" Psy-Ops project]·
·
Inspired by news reports on Christmas toys such as Bush dolls and action-figure toys representing Bush, Blair and bin Laden and also by an earlier news report that Colombia was "bombing" rebel camps with "girlie" calendars to lure young men into deserting their rebellion to enjoy the amenities of the war between the sexes.  --Jim Wrenn, Editor@PoliSat.Com.

Descriptions of findings by Pew appear to deserve a "pee-yew."  ·
·
    The way we by allies are viewed
    ain't good say researchers at Pew,    
    but measures by Pew
    appraising such views
    appear to deserve a "pee-yew."
·
Inspired by a news report of the results of a survey in a number of countries by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press.  The press release suggested the US has become very unpopular among its "allies," yet the findings showed the following percentages of people in the following countries have a "favorable" view of the U.S. in 1999 compared to now in 2002 (then/now):  Germany:  78/61 (-17); Great Britain 83/75 (-8); Italy 76/70 (-6); France 62/63 (+1) Russia 37/61 (+24); Turkey 52/30 (-22); Pakistan 23/10 (-13); Indonesia 75/61 (-14); Kenya 94/80 (-14).  Of course the results for Turkey and Pakistan are disturbing, but what about not only the still-high approval rating in the others but also the dramatic improvement among Russians?   Furthermore, since we are currently the bearer of bad news (i.e., Iraq is dangerous), one would expect that people not desiring to face the reality of bad news would thus not be pleased with us for confronting them with reality; thus, the results are surprisingly favorable when viewed in that light.

To counter an Ex-POTUS "whine-ary",  ·
go "Counter" then "Clinton" then "Library."  ·
·
·
Bill Clinton has named his library
a "center" instead of library.
Of course we know why
in the blink of an eye:
'cause "library" rhymes with "Liebrary."™

But why did he choose the word "center"?
It's not 'cause the sound rhymes with "enter."
The idea was his,
so we know that it "is"
subconscious Clinphonics© for "sinner" !

But OSHA made safety-rules clear
to which tourists have to adhere: 
For women they're here;
For children, they're here;
For Bill's protιgιs they are here.

Since Clinton chose "Center" not "Library,"
for housing his legacy "whine-ary."
To counter his shrine
preserving his whines,
go "Counter" then "Clinton" then "Library."*

-- Librarian@ClintonLiebrary.Com.

Clinphonics© is a term I coined and explained in the Clinton Liebrary Book in the chapter on Translating Clintonese. See also "Hookered on Clinphonics." .

Can "girlie" displays change terrorists' ways?·

Colombia's government shows us the way
by bombing their rebels with "girlie" displays
of "Calendar Girls"
with clothing unfurled

Said Rumsfeld, "Colombia's shown us the way
