Just read the article I linked you to.

Just read this:

William Happer

Repeat: He's not a climate scientist. And he's also on the Board of Directors of the George C. Marshall Institute. Hmmm...

And I just found this:

Here is the whole transcript. Let me know what you think.

I just read through it. My short summary: I stopped arguing about global warming on FreeRepublic because I kept reading nonsense like this. It would take hours and days to address the illogic, the artistically erroneous comparisons, as well as the errors of fact. It's a remarkable and beautifully written statement. And it's appallingly bad. Congratulations to you (actually to Dr. Happer) to once again convince me of the wisdom of my decision to withdraw from active participation here. I am doing so again. Before I get frustrated and angry and disappointed and disillusioned.

Adieu.

So... why did you come back? Your socialist allies won the election, thanks in part to the endless climate alarmist brainwashing that you are part of. Part of what makes America great is our ability to reject European Green Utopianism and thereby strongly protect property rights and the world economy. Having performed my own modest experiments with solar power I see only a money pit. OTOH, my chain saw and gas is keeping me warm right now, and no realistic amount of money wasted on solar or wind will do that, at least here in Northern VA.

So while you helped here at the margins in the past, keeping the worst of the carbon proponents honest, your overall effect on America is a net negative, along with the rest of Maryland, and alas, Virginia. But here in Virginia there are lots of people with buyers remorse who now reject the politics of pseudo-scientific alarmism and capitulation to European Greenies. Your window will close soon enough.

Lol, your link takes us to his exceptional achievements. He was also a leader in the government about climate change.

“I just read through it. My short summary: I stopped arguing about global warming on FreeRepublic because I kept reading nonsense like this.”

This is your best comeback to an address to the US Senate EPW about climate change from a credentialed authority who has worked within the government as an authority on climate change? Adieu?

Don’t let la port hit you on the derriere on the way out.

“He’s not a climate scientist”.

Neither is James Hansen who started this whole global warming alarmist religion and keeps adding scripture.

” And he’s also on the Board of Directors of the George C. Marshall Institute. Hmmm...”

Do you realize how idiotic you sound when you attack the messenger instead of the message? Which btw is all you’ve done along this thread when you weren’t throwing out dire and unproven predictions. Yes the Mashall Institute takes money from....wait for it.. EXXXONN!!!!! Hey Al Gore will definitely stand to make billions if people buy into global warming alarmism. Dems definitely will recieve money for re-election from global warming groups they cowtow too. Hmmmm. Go back to DU.
