Why? It’s simple. The scientists don’t know what they’re doing. They have no clear objectives, and the notion of building an accurate picture of a few trillion neurons in action is as far from reality as a flea painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.

The utopian technocrats, who’ve been predicting that, by the middle of this century, they will create an artificial brain that outstrips the one inside the skull, are suddenly on vacation. They’re mumbling and backing away.   Continue reading “Obama’s new brain-mapping project is already a Lilliputian disaster”

Though serious questions remain about the nuclear threat posed by North Korea, a recently disclosed assessment by the Pentagon claims that Pyongyang has the ability to assemble a nuclear weapon small enough for launch via ballistic missile.

The new information came at a Thursday budget session of the House Armed Services Committee, where US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel claimed all the same that North Korea is still not able to attack the US with a missile carrying a nuclear warhead. At the same conference, National Intelligence Director James Clapper claimed that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un’s latest threats are simply a bid to “elicit recognition from the world, specifically the United States … of North Korea’s arrival on the scene as a nuclear power.”   Continue reading “N.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) embarrassed government regulators during a Senate Banking Committee hearing on Thursday morning as she demanded to know why they won’t reveal how frequently big banks illegally foreclosed on homeowners. In January, regulators abandoned a case-by-case review of foreclosure fraud conducted by some of the nation’s largest banks in favor of a $9.3 billion settlement. Under the deal, most of the 4.4 million homeowners who were foreclosed on in 2009 or 2010 received less than $1,000 each.   Continue reading “Elizabeth Warren Tears Into Federal Regulators For Shielding Big Banks”

Manuel Martinez, born in Cuba, escaped the brutal Communist regime in Cuba in 1954. On Friday, he saw the face of Communists in America in Salem, Oregon as he addressed, without teleprompter or notes, gun grabbing bureaucrats, including Committee Leader Floyd Prozansky. Pointing a finger as Prozanksy, he declared, “You don’t know what freedom is because you never lost it!”

Mr. Martinez’s passionate testimony included how citizens under Castro were first disarmed by legislation similar to that being pushed along by Floyd Prozanski. This left many Cuban Citizens defenseless, who were later summarily slaughtered.   Continue reading “Communist Survivor Calls Out Gun Grabbing Democrats As Communists”

An Arkansas state attorney general has announced that the ExxonMobil pipeline rupture that has leaked thousands of barrels of oil in central Arkansas is “substantially larger” than initially believed, but that the size of the leak still remains unknown.

Cleanup crews have already recovered about 28,200 barrels of ‘oily water’ and 2,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil and debris, but may still have a long way to go before all of the 22 residents evacuated from Mayflower, Arkansas, can return to their homes.   Continue reading “Arkansas ExxonMobil oil spill even worse than thought”

A trove of leaked classified reports has confirmed what many had suspected – US drone kills in Pakistan are not the precision strikes against top-level al-Qaeda terrorists they are portrayed as by the Obama administration.

Instead, many of the attacks are aimed at suspected low-level tribal militants, who may pose no direct danger to the United States – and for many there appears to be little evidence to justify the assassinations.   Continue reading “Leaked report: Nearly half of US drone strikes in Pakistan not against al-Qaeda”
