Global Warming Cools Off


Times are getting downright exciting.

The hypothesis of manmade global warming is collapsing as we watch; predictions of climate models fail to materialize and the indicators point to several decades of profound cold. Professor Don Easterbrook's latest paper says the Pacific Ocean has flipped to the cooling stage of its decadal cycle and he's troubled that this is coupling with a marked decrease in solar activity, meaning we could have very cold weather for the next couple of decades.

Then we'll pursue last week's thread making the case for increased U.S. security as the world slips steadily towards geopolitical chaos. Tony Blankley, former editor of the Washington Times opinion page, joins us for a jaunt through his new book, "American Grit - What it Will Take to Survive and Win in the 21st Century."

We've been asked to review our predictions for the crisis window 2009-2012, so John's boralogue focuses on that.
