Not all Americans have been 'greenwashed'

Many of our elected leaders, it seems, are being "green-washed." From the Governor's Mansion to the White House, public officials are racing to become the most radical supporter of clean energy, as well as the fiercest opponent of man-made climate change.

Does anyone not think that green energy and man-made global warming are urgent priorities? Evidently, just those crazy global warming "deniers" — the American people.

According to a recent Gallup environmental survey, global warming is last on the list of Americans' environmental worries. In fact, four in 10 Americans worry only a little or not at all about global warming and the "greenhouse effect." Similarly, last month a Pew survey found that only 30 percent of Americans rate dealing with global warming as a "top domestic priority," enough for last on a list of 20 possible priorities.

Reasonable citizens have good cause to doubt the seriousness of man-made climate change. First, alarmists' predictions simply don't fit the facts. For instance, research published last month found that the world's oceans have actually cooled since 2003. Second, published, peer-reviewed research from climate scientists such as Roy Spencer and William Braswell (aka "global warming skeptics") is showing that basic assumptions of man-made climate change theory are likely false.

Just wait ‘till global cooling, the Obamaloon tax increases, and the Obamaloon energy price rise converge. The show trials of the loon, Pelosi, and the rest of the sub-IQ crowd will be most pleasing.

It’s one thing to gripe and complain about these things and disagree with it, but it’s quite *another* to convince your friends and neighbors and relatives and coworkers...

THEREFORE..., it’s also absolutely necessary for people to know the information in the following documentary. If there were simply *one* video that you could see and/or show people you know... this would be the *one*...


The following is an *excellent* video documentary on the so-called “Global Warming” I would recommend it to all FReepers. It’s a very well-made documentary.

“The Great Global Warming Swindle”

If you want to download it, via a BitTorrent site (using a BitTorrent client), you can get it at the following link.
http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/3635222/The_Great_Global_Warming_Swindle
[this is a high-quality copy, of about a gigabyte in size...]

It’s worth seeing and having for relatives, friends, neighbors and coworkers to see.

Also, see it online here...
http://www.moviesfoundonline.com/great_global_warming_swindle.php
[this one is considerably lower quality, is a flash video and viewable online, of course...]

Buy it here...
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000WLUXZE
[this one would be the very highest quality version, on a DVD disk, of several gigabytes in size...]

Most of Americans are unable to reason and determine hype when it is shoved at us by greedy unqualified scientists and especially the lame sick politicians.
