On Global Warming: Follow the Money Indeed! (David Asman / Fox News)
Fox News ^ | 2-14-07 | David Asman

It takes a certain kind of gumption to stand up to the status quo.

Folks who challenge the mainstream media and popular culture are subjected to some of the nastiest insults and character assassinations. And such retribution is nowhere more severe than for those who take issue with popular views about global warming.

I should work for Fox. I followed the trail to UNEP weeks ago, after the fastest UN policy decision ever when they declared global warming to be a man made issue.

Chicken Little syndrome is alive and well but more telling is the greed. There are many (look at the Universities and research projects listed on the UNEP site) and you can get an idea on who this will benefit.

The MSM will never report on these connections.

In fact the MSM's response to the Fox News Channel is:

They report. We deride.

That will happen as soon as they're finished exposing the U.N. oil for food scandal. /sarc

This is a very good report. It more and more feels like the UN is the hide-out for power hungry left wingers with a taste for good chardonnay and good brie.

I'm sure most of us have heard it before so I won't do the complete diatribe. But someone pointed out something else noteworthy regarding the Science behind global warming that I think is relevant and important.

Science is based on hypothesis tested and retested. Test and experiments are supposed to be set up to disprove hypothesis. If a scientist cannot disprove his hypothesis then he calls it a theory. Scientists of all walks then set out to disprove a given theory. If a theory is tested and challenged long and hard enough but still can't be disproved, some start to refer to them as laws. This is why you have the Newton's laws, etc. Whether it be theories on gravity, the solar system, atomic fission or fusion or Einstein's "law" of relativity (is actually a theory but often called laws), scientists are always out to disprove them and the "industry" encourages it. This is how discoveries are made and technology advances. In fact, Einstein's relativity theory is still being challenged today. Just recently, scientists have reported (theage.com.auMotion) that the theory doesn't work at slow speeds per Einstein's specs. I don't know if their right or wrong.

The point is, science is suppose to be about challenging theories and testing hypothesis until, that is, we get to global warming. Then suddenly, anyone who challenges the "science" behind the "proof" that humans cause global warming, is likened to a heretic and is dismissed as a fool.

Whether you believe in man made global warming or not, you should be skeptical and have doubts based on the corrupted scientific approach ALONE. To put it in perspective; say you take your car to a mechanic and he asks you what is wrong with it. You tell him it is hard to start, idles to fast and vibrates at speeds above 40 MPH. He walks over to your car and sniffs the driver side mirror and tells you that your fuel injectors need to be replaced and it will cost you $650. Would you just write him a check? He could be right?

I have been asking this question of global warming nitwits, "What is the perfect temperature for the planet?"
So far no answer

The same people who claim Bush manipulated the intelligence to go to war, far more manipulate the data to support their global governance scheme.

I like David Asman...and the story he refers to is fascinating, and begins to clear up the picture of the Global Warming industry.

It is the Global Warming doom-and-gloomers who are on the take, for the most part.

This is why it's so great that we have Fox News. The liberal media isn't going to cover this kind of thing, but Fox News is willing to do the investigation necessary to expose this kind of thing.

So the article states President Bush has given 20 billion so far to study climate change. Do we know how much Algore & Bubba gave?
