India gives cold shoulder to global warming zealots
THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER ^ | Feb. 5, 2010

Posted on 02/07/2010 12:16:46 PM PST by indcons

The rush to impose Draconian, costly regulations to fight global warming is based on allegedly "settled science" showing manmade greenhouse gases increase temperatures. This belief system's high priests at the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have issued successive reports trumpeting the danger, concluding that we must act immediately.

But the science never was settled. There have been increasing contrary findings, and revelations that warming zealots may have rigged the data, suppressed dissenting views and committed grand blunders to advance their agenda.

In 1997 the U.S. Senate rejected 95-0 the Kyoto Protocol treaty's drastic emission mandates. Senators objected to its economic harm for the U.S. and disproportionate benefit for countries like India. In December, 193 nations at Copenhagen's climate summit refused to adopt even more strident mandates.

In India last week, something happened potentially more significant than Kyoto's rejection and Copenhagen's cold shoulder. The U.K. Telegraph reported: "The Indian government has established its own body to monitor the effects of global warming because it 'cannot rely' on the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the group headed by India's own leading scientist, Dr. R.K Pachauri."

"Man-made" global warming has been debunked in its entirety.

Now that the junk science behind global warming has been exposed for what it is, shouldn't the Nobel Committee revoke the formerly-prestigious Nobel Prize awarded to IPCC and Al Gore?

It's not good enough that the Nobel Committee would revoke Al Gore's Nobel prize. Besides these are the types of people who would NEVER admit that they are wrong. They pride themselves on being intellectuals and thus incapable of error. That's the left in a nutshell.

What is better for these folks is to have their name be Mudd in the classic sense of the word. I'd like to see Al Gore's name become part of the English Language as a JOKE. It should be the ultimate pejorative. For example when we say someone is a Benedict Arnold we know they are a traitor. I'd like to see Al Gore's name used in such a way as to indicate what he truly is. This should be his legacy. It is fitting for all the damage he has done.

Y'know, that would be a very interesting question to put to both.

Are they smart enough to realize they've been scammed? And are they honest enough to admit it?

Newt admitted the other day he was wrong on supporting Dierdre R. "Dede" Scozzafava in NY.as the Republican nominee. So there is always hope.

Hadn't heard that. Says something about Newt -- he can admit a mistake.

On the other hand, I doubt McCain's ever made one...

McCain's ads are swamping the talk radio air waves here in Arizona. He is running as an ultra conservative that is the nation's only hope to stop the Obama socialist machine.

Funny, Just a year ago, I remember him talking about his base, the MSM, and being so proud of dumping on conservatives with his amnesty/immigration policy, his undermining of the First Amendment with McCain/Feingold, and his attacking the Second Amendment with the Assault Weapons ban.

Now, he is running scared, and claiming he is an ultra conservative.
