Time To End The Global Warming Scam

Anyone under the age of 25 probably has been indoctrinated with a belief in man made global warming. They have been taught in school and in our media that 1) global warming is unique to our time in the history of the earth, and that 2) man is responsible for this warming, and that 3) changing light bulbs, driving corn run hybrids, and paying carbon credits will save the earth. They have also been told by people like Al Gore that the science is settled, therefore not only is there is no reason for any debate, but dissension will just not be tolerated. This is the gospel truth, according to Al.

I'm reminded at this point of all the talk about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction (WMD) throughout the Clinton and the Bush administration. The intelligence reports were in and they were all consistent: Saddam Hussein was hiding WMD and was ready to use it. We acted on that intelligence, only to find that apparently it was not true. As a result people on the left came up with their infamous rally cry: Bush lied, people died. This of course was nonsense. Bush may have been wrong and/or may have been misled with faulty information; but he did what he should have done with the information he had . . he acted. What if the intelligence ended up being accurate?

This past week we found out that the foundational "science" behind global warming has been made up. We found out that some of the main movers and shakers in the global warming scam have been hiding information that countered their assertions. They purposely set out to quiet any dissenting views. They have generated their own version of a man made crisis, one that was/is certain to cost us trillions of dollars.

There are legitimate questions about Al Gore's intentions and just how much he really believes the crap he preaches. If he really believed the world would end in 10 years if we don't do something now, would he continue to fly in personal jets, live in an overly large home, eat hamburgers? But for the moment, let's say Al really does believe all of this, and that his belief system was built on all the "science" that is now suspect. Are people on the left willing to cry out: Al lied, people died? After all, think of all the people who have suffered because of the limitations hard core environmentalism has placed on them. If the science is wrong and if there is absolutely no global warming impact with burning coal or oil for our energy needs, think of how that would transform our economy and national security. More to the point, if before going into Iraq we were told that the intelligence was wrong, should we have still gone in under the pretense of getting rid of WMD? I don't think so. We are now faced with the same mis-information about man made global warming. So how will we respond?

People under the age of 25 probably don't know what to do with this kind of scam. It goes against everything they have been taught. My guess is that most have never heard a counter argument to man made global warming. It will be curious to see what politicians do with this information. They too have become beholden to interest groups who preach "green", at a cost that could bankrupt our country. Look at California. Hopefully they will have the guts to put an end to anything having to do with cap and trade, or with keeping us from drilling for oil or coal. We cannot survive on wind and solar. We don't need to.
