Many good points.

The most important one is the one he doesn’t make - which is that anthropogenic Global warming is a myth.

We need hope, and self-confidence.

Amen to that. We will survive and if the market is allowed to work we will thrive.

Climate change? WTF? If anybody can show me a time in the history of the earth where the climate has not been “changing”, I’ll turn in my two Hummers.

Second, when will Al Gore -— or a real scientist for that matter —— tell me what the mean global temperature should be? Should it be set at 58 degrees F? If so, how should the temperature be distributed throughout the day -— or the seasons —— or across hemispheres?

History will recognize the envirofreaks as the witchburners of the 21st century. Like the flat-earthers, they will be mocked and scorned. Unfortunately, they appear poised to do far more damage than flat-earthers or witch burners ever dreamed of doing.

Even if you buy into global warming, it’s 1 degree every couple hundred years - that’s it and, it assumes mankind does not change during that time from like riding a horse vs driving cars or electric light bulbs.

GW is a political religious ideology as dangerous as muslim.

Buckley is sometimes dry but he is right. I am interested in how quickly the irreligious find their own heretics when confronted with opinions and analysis that does not fit their political and social agendas.

Tomorrow's headline? "Heavy breathing pollution.. like Zyklon B for polar bears? NCAA to ban running in college football, basketball by 2010. . .Could prevent the flooding of all U.S. athletic fields say SI editors."

[Publius6961]

I am puzzled why William F Buckley can manage to mention Zyklon B in the context of demonizing Exxon-Mobil and fail to mention I.B. Farben, a conglomerate of one of the current US's harshest critics, which to this day is never mentioned about its role in the "extermination".

WFB? Politically correct?

To raise capital, Degussa split its controlling interest of Degesch with IG Farben in 1930: both companies held a 42.5% share in Degesch, with the remaining 15% held by the Th. Goldschmidt AG of Essen.

Due to the severity of the war crimes committed by IG Farben during World War II, the company was considered to be too corrupt to be allowed to continue to exist, and the allies considered confiscating all of its assets and putting it out of business. Instead, in 1951, the company was split up into the original constituent companies. The four largest quickly bought the smaller ones, and today only Agfa, BASF, and Bayer remain, while Hoechst merged with the French Rhône-Poulenc Rorer to form Aventis, now based in Strasbourg, France.
