Photo: The US ReportIf you grew up in the South in an area where there was a winter season, you probably already know what a bed buddy is.

Like me, you may be shocked to learn that a TV doc is being sued over a version of that simple home remedy for everything from an aching muscle to cold feet.

Skewed hockey stick physicist Mann wants UVA emails kept private

For price increases in home heating and air systems, and for skyrocketing food and utility costs, you can thank Dr. Mann and his fellow global warming alarmists.(Photo by Kay B. Day, The US Report)Back in the day before we learned former vice-president Al Gore likes massages and he was still giving wife Tipper steamy kisses in public, a physicist named Michael Mann became a darling of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Mann led the charge with the now infamous hockey stick graph touted by  global warming alarmists as proof of manmade global warming.

Welfare state proponents like Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) are the most enthusiastic cheerleaders for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, popularly called ObamaCare.

Kucinich makes Cooper’s ‘Ridiculist’ with $150,000 tooth lawsuit

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) made Anderson Cooper's 'RidicuList.' [Screen snip from CNN video at YouTube]If I pointed to one thing that’s led to distrust and cynicism on Main Street, it’d be frivolous lawsuits. A prime example of what I personally consider frivolous can be credited to Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio). Anderson Cooper appears to agree with me about the uber-liberal Democrat because Cooper placed him on the ‘RidicuList’ after Kucinich filed a $150,000 lawsuit. Kucinich is seeking justice for a tooth.
