Most of us are amused at the recent outing of global warming types, caught cooking the facts. As Doug Giles put it, "... for the power brokers of this hot earth heresy there is just way, way too much money to lose and control to be forfeited for them to concede that their leaders have been lying SOBs." Indeed. Few reasonable folk ever took these thugs seriously anyway (I myself drive an ‘87 Ford 150 Global Warmer and yet sleep well. I’d take a blow torch to the nearest iceberg if I could get at it.)
Alarmists have come and gone over the ages. Anyone past puberty understands this. And most also understand, all but the willfully blind that is, that these types are almost always wrong. Their track record stinks.
For example, Gary Sutton, in a recent edition of Forbes reminds us of a very recent time, conveniently forgotten by the warmers. He recalls that, "THE WEATHER CONSPIRACY … coming of the New Ice Age may be the only book ever written by 18 authors. All 18 lived just a short sled ride from Washington, D.C. Newsweek fell in line and did a cover issue warning us of global cooling on April 28, 1975. And The New York Times, Aug. 14, 1976, reported 'many signs that Earth may be headed for another ice age.'"
"Science mag’s prediction of 'A full-blown, 10,000 year ice age,' came from its March 1, 1975 issue. The Christian Science Monitor observed that armadillos were retreating south from Nebraska to escape the 'global cooling' in its Aug. 27, 1974 issue"'.
Whoa now! Desperate armadillos then, polar bears on their last ice chunk now.
And so it goes. But since folks forget, the left gets away with this garbage, sort of a rolling cycle of deceit.
Why do they do it? Let us look to the warmers for a clue.
Do the climate thugs really believe this stuff, the politicians, the "scientists" connected at the groin to the gov’t grant machine? Many of their flock do, taking anything the DNC feeds them as gospel. We know several. What about the manipulators themselves, the equivalent of warm-earth prostitutes - Gore (John Stewart pointed out on the Daily Show last week the irony that what Internet Al invented only debunked his global warming bunk.) Reid, the UN, all the rest? Most know better but they don’t really care, not as long as their flock can be trained to serve. Their quite transparent goal in this case - a one-world government.
Indeed, the warming heist is not really about our environment at all (nor the health heist about health). Weather, health issues - simply vessels, vehicles to carry the left’s agenda. Just the perfect fit for more bureaucracy, for more gov’t, the perfect excuse to dumb down a free society, to get between you and your choices.
