Franklin Pierce (November 23, 1804 – October 8, 1869) was the 14th President of the United States, serving from 1853 to 1857, an American politician and lawyer. To date, he is the only President from New Hampshire.
Philip B. Kunhardt and Peter W. Kunhardt reflected the views of many historians when they wrote in The American President that Pierce was "a good man who didn't understand his own shortcomings. He was genuinely religious, loved his wife and reshaped himself so that he could adapt to her ways and show her true affection. He was one of the most popular men in New Hampshire, polite and thoughtful, easy and good at the political game, charming and fine and handsome. However, he has been criticized as timid and unable to cope with a changing America. He was a Democrat.

Is Our Freedom in Danger?
By Bill O'Reilly
Some Tea Party people, along with commentators like Glenn Beck and some other radio guys, believe the Obama administration and progressives in general want to curtail individual freedom.
And you know what? That might be true.
Right now there is a case before the Supreme Court, McDonald v. Chicago, where the right to bear arms is in play.
As you may know, the Constitution allows Americans to bear arms under Second Amendment protection. The reason the founders put that in was that they feared a tyrant might seize control of the federal government, and they wanted individual citizens to have protections against tyranny.
Now, tyranny comes in many forms. For example, criminal gangs can threaten your well-being. That's tyranny and that's why 76-year-old Otis McDonald wants to keep a handgun in his home.
McDonald lives on Chicago's South Side, a chaotic neighborhood. But the city says McDonald has no right to have a handgun, thus the Supreme Court case.
Incredibly, the very liberal New York Times, which is supposed to champion individual liberty, editorialized it this way: "The Bill of Rights once was largely thought to be a set of limitations on the federal government. Does the right to bear arms apply against city and state governments as well?"
Of course it does. Are you telling me the city of Chicago could restrict freedom of speech in violation of the Constitution? This case isn't even close, and I predict the court will rule 5 to 4 that Otis McDonald can own a handgun.
But the four justices who would violate Mr. McDonald's rights are troubling because they don't like guns. They don't like the Second Amendment, and therefore would restrict it.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is an assault on individual freedom.
It is interesting that in America today, it is the far left that wants the government to call the shots, not the folks. In the past, right-wing extremists like Hitler and Mussolini were in the forefront of state control. But with the exception of Burma, today's totalitarians are primarily on the left. Certainly that is the case in the USA.
"Talking Points" is not ready to say the Obama administration wants to deprive us of rights. That would not be fair. But there is a movement underway in this country, led by so-called progressives, that would restrict individual liberty.
These people want the government to run the economy, to tell you how much you can and can't have, to force you to buy things like health insurance and to take away things they don't approve of, like guns.
This is a serious situation, and the Supreme Court case McDonald v. Chicago will be a big time indicator of which way things are going to go.

THINGS SCIENTISTS SAY X
Tim Blair
The tenth in a series of great scientifical clusters found in the peer-reviewed archives of the New York Times:
• 1947: “ATOM-BOMBED CITY CLAIMS CROP GAINS; Nagasaki Yield Reported 50 to 300% Above Normal – U.S. Scientists Voice Surprise.”
Radiation + Japanese things = bigger Japanese things. It’s your basic Godzilla equation.
• 1949: “Recent scientific efforts to control the weather and make rain start or stop at man’s will were subjected to the scrutiny of the United States Weather Bureau in the Astor Hotel yesterday and termed ‘of relatively little economic importance.’”
Tell that to Al Gore.
• 1956: “A Federal judge asserted here today that ‘the younger generation of pure scientists‘ had become a ‘fertile field for Communist propaganda.’”
That judge was on to something.
• 1958: ”Scientists of the world put their heads together here this week and came up with the collective judgment that the age of plentitude from atomic energy was still a hope, not an imminent reality.”
Sadly for Australia, this remains true.
• 1963: ”Scientists Are Often Right.”
That would have been a fine alternative title for An Inconvenient Truth.
• 1963: ”Scientists Do More Than Talk About the Weather.”
They also falsify evidence about it.
• 1966: “The specter of a ‘biologically planned society’ in which scientists control human behavior and decide who shall live and who shall mate was raised yesterday by Mrs. Sargent Shriver.”
Why, it almost sounds as though this liberal lioness was opposed to … death panels!
• 1970: ”Scientists are looking at kelp, a seaweed, as a new energy source.”
That explains all the kelpmills we see nowadays churning away on the ocean floor.
• 1973: “The Federation of American Scientists, warning that an accident at a nuclear power station ‘could mean death to tens of thousands of people,’ urged the Government today to require cutbacks in the reactors’ operating levels.”
Obama is a nuclear denialist.
• 1974: ”Scientists View Global Climate Changes as Threat to World’s Food Output.”
Kelp, anyone?

Any other bits of Britain that Obama wants to give away?

Barack Obama doesn’t really value the British alliance much, does he?
Argentina was celebrating a diplomatic coup yesterday in its attempt to force Britain to accept talks on the future of the Falkland Islands, after a two-hour meeting in Buenos Aires between Hillary Clinton and President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner.UPDATE
Responding to a request from Mrs Kirchner for “friendly mediation” between Britain and Argentina, Mrs Clinton, the US Secretary of State, said she agreed that talks were a sensible way forward and offered “to encourage both countries to sit down”.
Her intervention defied Britain’s longstanding position that there should be no negotiations unless the islands’ 3,000 inhabitants asked for them. It was hailed in Buenos Aires as a major diplomatic victory, but condemned in the Falklands.
Malcom Fraser modestly takes credit for singlehandedly persuading the United States to back Britain in the Falklands War.
At least the pleasure of the boast (however inflated) still outweighs Fraser’s new Leftist itch, which must surely be urging him to repudiate this war.

Through gritted teeth, climate scientists admit Wong tells porkies
Andrew Bolt
It really was time for scientists to call out Climate Change Minister Penny Wong for her outrageous deceits:
AUSTRALIA’S top climate scientist has contradicted Federal Government claims the drought in the Murray Darling Basin is due to global warming.How it hurts Sherwood to concede what he should have trumpeted years ago. Why so silent for so long, Professor?
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change lead author, Prof Neville Nicholls, said the claim was not backed by science.
“The current dry period (in the Murray Darling Basin) might still be just a fluke, or natural variability,” Prof Nicholls said.
“We cannot confidently attribute it to global warming.”
Yet Federal Climate Change and Water Minister Penny Wong has repeatedly claimed the basin’s drought is due to climate change.
“Research shows that this severe, extended drought is clearly linked with global warming,” Senator Wong said in November last year.
“There is nowhere that this challenge is more serious than the Murray Darling Basin.”
But while rainfall has dropped to record lows, other scientists say the statistics don’t back Senator Wong’s claim.
Prof Steven Sherwood, of the University of NSW Climate Change Research Centre, said the “sceptics here are (for once) technically correct, in that there is no proven link - yet - between Murray Darling drought and climate change”.

The drum on the sceptics
Andrew Bolt
Michael Connor claims censorship:
Quadrant Online previously reported that the ABC had invited Bob Carter to contribute to an online debate on The Drum following their publication of a series of five articles by Clive Hamilton.Carter’s article - warning that Hansen’s gospel is more dangerous than Lysenkoism - is here.
Left internet newsletters and blog sites were outraged that sceptics were to be allowed to comment on their ABC.
Professor Carter submitted his article, on James Hansen and the Hansenism cult, and the ABC has rejected his article - which Quadrant Online is privileged to publish.
James Hansen is visiting Australia. We can only guess at the pressures which have been exerted on the ABC to close down criticism of Hansen - and the cowardice which saw them conform.
This aside, it is true that Drum editor Jonathan Green has now published http://www.abc.net.au/thedrum/” title="some articles by sceptics “>some articles by sceptics to balance the astonishing five-part rant by the conspiracy-minded Clive Hamilton, an amusement to his foes and embarrassment to his friends.
Here is one, JoNova’s uncovering of the great green money trail:
The US government spent $79 billion on climate research and technology since 1989 - to be sure, this funding paid for things like satellites and studies, but it’s 3,500 times as much as anything offered to sceptics. It buys a bandwagon of support, a repetitive rain of press releases, and includes PR departments of institutions like NOAA, NASA, the Climate Change Science Program and the Climate Change Technology Program. The $79 billion figure does not include money from other western governments, private industry, and is not adjusted for inflation. In other words, it could be…a lot bigger.
For direct PR comparisons though, just look at “Think Climate Think Change”: the Australian Government put $13.9 million into just one quick advertising campaign. There is no question that there are vastly more financial rewards for people who promote a carbon-made catastrophe than for those who point out the flaws in the theory.
Ultimately the big problem is that there are no grants for scientists to demonstrate that carbon has little effect. There are no Institutes of Natural Climate Change, but plenty that are devoted to UnNatural Forces.

Tell Manne to shut up, then
Andrew Bolt
Elizabeth Farrelly:
The intelligentsia is the last minority that dare not speak its name.Oh, really?
Robert Manne:
Among the group to which I loosely belong - the pro-Labor, left-liberal intelligentsia - the crisis has so far occasioned an uncertain response.Manne again:
I was an anti-communist at a time when, among the intelligentsia, there was a social cost to pay.Manne again:
(Kevin Rudd’s) government would, I hoped, restore the tradition of a more independent Australian foreign policy; soften and humanise industrial-relations law; help bring the Culture Wars to an end; strengthen universities; and create a less poisonous atmosphere between the government and the left-liberal intelligentsia… Kevin Rudd’s relations with the left-leaning intelligentsia began famously at the 2020 Summit, where he was treated as hero and national saviour.Professor Graham Maddox on Manne:
Howard’s performance has come under particular scrutiny in The Howard Years (edited by Robert Manne), which proceeds from the premise that a substantial minority of the community sees his as ‘the most backward and mean-spirited government of Australia’s post-war years’ (p. vii). In fact, the depth of the hostility of much of the intelligentsia toward Howard is staggering.Who’s Manne? Richard Nile hails the king of the intelligentsia:
In what might reasonably be called the academy’s award or the intellectuals’ intellectuals, I canvassed the views of some 200 scholars who were asked to list 10 important and influential thinkers… Political scientist, historian and commentator, Robert Manne was voted by his peers to be Australia’s most important and influential intellectual.But now I’m confused. Is Farrelly’s unknowingness and inability to even use Google proof that she’s of the intelligentsia, too, or proof that’s she’s not?
PS
This conceit that our grants-fed “intelligentsia” is actually a much persecuted minority, unable even to speak, goes back years. Remember this from 2007?:
Hunted dissident David Marr somehow smuggles out a report from the Fourth Reich:===Since 1996, Howard has cowed his critics, muffled the press, intimidated the ABC, gagged scientists, silenced non-government organisations, neutered Canberra’s mandarins, curtailed parliamentary scrutiny, censored the arts, banned books, criminalised protest and prosecuted whistleblowers.The mystery is, how did Marr’s brave protest come to be printed over great slabs of The Age and Sydney Morning Herald, and get published in fool full by Black Inc? Surely publishing such sedition is now impossible in the Howardistan of cowed critics, banned books, muffled press and criminalised protest that Marr describes?
Live aid for militias

Whacking business with a shovel
Andrew Bolt
Remember last month’s promise?
Tanner vows new assault on red tapeRobert Gottliebsen on the delivery:
Federal Finance and Deregulation Minister Lindsay Tanner plans to streamline processes for assessing new regulation as business leaders warn some of the reforms aimed at slashing red tape have stalled.
One man has the potential to single handedly make Tony Abbott Prime Minister of Australia – Assistant Treasurer Nick Sherry.
Sherry appears to be concocting one of the biggest attacks ever mounted on the small business community by a government minister in direct violation of solemn promises made by Kevin Rudd’s ALP at the last election…
In a nutshell, what happened was the Board of Taxation came up with a series of outrageous recommendations and Sherry ... gave them his blessing… So here are just a few of the ideas that Sherry now has on his agenda.
Each plumber or computer consultant in Australia will need to differentiate between their income from capital (spanners, shovels and computers) and their income from labour (digging the ditches and writing software).
Under the Sherry-blessed plan, part of the income derived from labour would be attributed to the person who supplied the labour and those people would be treated as employees – not business people. The income earned on capital could be returned to the owner(s) of the capital, which may differ from the person who provided the labour. Have you ever heard of anything more stupid? But the Sherry-blessed plan gets worse.

Labor’s nuclear dump
Andrew Bolt
Quite true, and it’s good to hear (an always sensible) someone of the Left belatedly say so:
Australia has an international responsibility to set up secure storage for its radioactive waste, a federal minister says.But if we have such a responsibility, and if a waste facility is now to be built, why not make it one that accepts the waste from the nuclear power plants we supply with uranium, too?
It was revealed last week that the only nuclear waste dump site currently being considered by the federal government is at Muckaty Station, 120km north of Tennant Creek, in the Northern Territory.
Federal Resources Minister Martin Ferguson on Wednesday said a site needed to be found for the disposal of medical isotope waste from Sydney’s Lucas Heights reactor.
It would help to limit nuclear proliferation, and would earn us a motza, while leaving us with waste that in time may prove to be a useful resource.

Not what Rudd promised, and not what he’ll deliver
Andrew Bolt
There are three questions to ask about Kevin Rudd’s new hospital shake up: is it good in theory, will it work in practice and will it fly politically?
The answer, I suspect, is one out of three:
KEVIN Rudd has set up a federal election campaign dominated by health, unveiling plans to strip the states of 30 per cent of their GST receipts to fund a federal takeover of state-run public hospitals.And how big is this change from a man who once threatened to take over 100 per cent of the funding responsibility?
The Prime Minister also plans to sideline the states on hospital administration, instead doling out tied grants to new local boards which would deliver services in accordance with strict requirements set in Canberra.
And Mr Rudd has created the mechanism to campaign on the issue in this year’s election, threatening a referendum if states do not hand over 30 per cent of their GST revenues to bankroll his plan.
The health blueprint, unveiled in Canberra yesterday, sparked immediate political sparring, with the West Australian Liberal government of Colin Barnett ruling out a handover of GST revenues…
The plan also involves the commonwealth taking full control of all aspects of general practitioner and primary care services conducted outside hospitals. The aim is to deliver better out-of-hospital care to ease demand for hospital beds.
Rudd wants Canberra to assume responsibility for 60 per cent of public hospital budgets - up from about 40 per cent - and 100 per cent of GP services and primary care.First, is it a good in theory to pay hospitals the “efficient” price for each service, rather than hand over a lump of cash:
An independent umpire would set the price that networks would be paid for each operation, along with performance benchmarks on surgery waiting lists, emergency department waiting times and error rates.The answer is yes - in most cases. In fact, Victoria does essentially that right now, and has worked out where it doesn’t work, too:
The states would still own the hospital buildings, employ the staff and be responsible for fixing performance problems - including having to pay the bills for any costs above the “efficient” price set for each service.
Mr Rudd said that with a concurrent federal takeover of all primary care services, there would be a stronger incentive to treat more patients out of hospitals and to end “the blame game” and cost-shifting between the states and Canberra.
Victorian Health Minister Daniel Andrews ... said the plan raised huge questions for Victoria’s highly evolved health system, including the future of 44 small rural services that are paid in block grants because casemix funding had not worked in the past for their mix of servicesWhich suggests that the answer to the second question - will this work in practice? - could be a qualified “no”.
First, Victoria’s experiences shows that flexibility and close-to-the-ground monitoring are needed to avoid the turning the funding arrangements into a one-size-fits-all bureaucratic straightjacket, with a distant bureaucrat in Canberra effectively ruling over the service delivery of a hospital in Bordertown. Is Canberra, which gave you the insulation fiasco, really equipped to do all that? Are you, as a consumer, better able to influence your state government or the federal government to change what may need fixing?
And how much will the changes improve services in those states that have already made the reforms, and are running lean? Again, Victoria is the example, being the most efficient state on a spend-per-patient basis, which explains why it’s jacking up:

How many ways were we ripped off?
Andrew Bolt
Gavin Atkins warns of yet another possible rort in the $2.45 billion insulation fiasco:
Some established insulation businesses in Australia have scammed thousands of dollars from Australian taxpayers by claiming to have insulated homes as part of the Rudd Government scheme – but the jobs were completed anything up to two or three years ago.UPDATE
A Sydney builder - who wished to remain anonymous - told Asian Correspondent that he knew of existing insulation businesses that have filled out the paperwork to claim $1,200 for each job under the Rudd Government’s Energy Efficient Homes Package, despite the fact that they performed the work at the houses well before the disastrous scheme was implemented.
Jack the Insider says Peter Garrett tried to warn Rudd:
It is a matter of record that Minister Garrett alerted his cabinet colleagues to the inherent problems of the home insulation scheme on at least one occasion and we can only presume did so to deafening silence by way of response or if any verbal response was made it seems to be of the “don’t tell me your problems” variety.(Thanks to reader gerbil.)
