Ok, I admit it. I have a man-crush on Stossel.

“along the way berating Al Gore for saying the debate over climate change is over.”

But it is over - it’s a hoax, lie and political ideology not based on any facts, reason or perspective.

I wish everyone would learn it.
I’m so tired of all of the “green” crap.

I wouldn’t mind hijacking the “Global Warming” hysteria as a means of getting free of dependence on oil, since most of it is in the hands of nutjobs. Maybe if we declared a War On Oil Dependence (got WOOD?), we could have the same kind of technological advancement that SDI brought us in the 80s, and we could move into an era of more stable energy sources.

I like Stossel. He did a really good piece a while back on the myth of gun control. Very surprising to see that on ABC.

Good stuff.

“Global Warming Myths”

The overriding myth is that global warming zealots give a rats butt about global warming. They know that it’s baloney, it’s just a means to an end.

Convince the sheeple that the end is near and their only salvation is to turn their lives over to Algore & Company.

FGS, I hope he doesn’t expose it before The Today Show goes to the “corners of the Earth” to examine and report on global warming. Matt’s going to Greenland to prove GW is real (no, he doesn’t see the irony in Greenland’s name, evidently), Ann is going to the South Pole, where evidently a large chunk of Antartica, the size of Rhode Island has broken off (bwhahahaha), and Roker will be at the equator, eating something, I’m sure. What a perfect storm of IRONY is building. Where in the world is Algore? It’s just not a true IRONY party if he’s not part of it!

I am soooo sick of this too....it’s soooo obvious that every producer and publicist (magazines, especially) has had Global Warming on their calendar this year.....hopefully this will be the BLOWOUT!

“The only practical thing we can do today that would make a difference in CO2 output is to launch a major shift toward nuclear energy. But the environmental movement rarely utters the word nuclear.

Exactly what I have been saying. _IF_ the Environmentalists are REALLY concerned about the environment, and if they REALLY want to achieve a real lowering of CO2 emissions, then they would be a SCREAMING for Nuclear power.. all I hear is crickets..

It's as if the Vice President and his allies in the environmental movement plan to win the debate through intimidation.

And, THERE it is in a nut shell.

...he doesn’t see the irony in Greenland’s name, evidently

In Viking days, they didn't do irony. They named it Greenland because back then, it was actually green, and they could colonize and farm the fertile edges of the island. Later on, the climate changed and the Vikings were frozen off their land.

Today, the glaciers are retreating again. As they melt, the stone villages the Vikings built are emerging from the ice once more.

The left uses covers for their agenda, rarely, if ever actually coming out and telling us what their goals are.

“Green” is just one of the covers. The goal is global communism with them in charge (so they believe).
