Ah......lawmakers who listen to Christine Whitman will find out petty fast how their constituents and the country feels about this "climate" nonsense designed to control the country's energy supply, depress the economy and drive up costs for everything.

An encouraging piece on a scientist/teacher/author who is taking a stand.

“I have had students who are very strongly pro-the global warming movement in my classes, of course, because most young people have heard this already,” he said. “And when I have them actually do the study, and take apart an IPCC [International Panel on Climate Change] claim, sometimes they break into tears, and they say ‘I can’t believe this is the only class I’ve ever been in in which anyone has ever told me there is even an issue.’” Source

Tell you what.

Right now the parts per million of Carbon Dioxide is somewhere between 350-390ppm.

Lets agree to cut that in half....

Back in the '70s William Ruckelshaus banned DDT which directly led to the deaths of from between 500 and 750 thousand people a year from Malaria.

And we're supposed to heed his warnings about climate change?

Some great reading on the issue of global warming can be found in the book "Darwin's Ghost" by Steve Jones. The book is a brilliant and modern update of Darwin's original work.

Here are several for-instance sentences from the book, on page 231, ...

Five hundred million years ago the air had twenty times as much carbon dioxide as it contains now. this led to a natural "greenhouse effect" which was reversed two hundred million years later when the level of gas dropped. Oxygen, too, has swung between extremes. Twice as much of the gas as today allowed the growth of enormous plants, of spiders the size of a book, and of scorpions a foot long.

Today's "global warming" is a lying, political fraud.

Yes when you are out of work and about to lose your house and you don’t know how to feed your kids climate change is really high on the priority list.

Is there any member of a BUREAUCRACY, who is capable of recognizing the failings of those institutions?

The phrase “self-eating watermelon” seems apt.

It is the nature of any BUREAUCRACY, to grow the size and scope of the organization. They breed empire builders, accountable only to their own whims. They are forever seeking to justify their own existance.

They invent meaningless metrics, by which they can declare success and pretend to have “earned” a bonus.

Lets face it folks....the WRONG 92 Million people are out of WORK.

(WORK = A good or service having intrinsic value in the marketplace)
