Climate Hucksters.
Science fiction theater opens in Washington when the peculiar posse in favor of the silly and meaningless cap and trade bill gather round the Senate to find votes for passage sometime before the next global ice age. Hilarious. There is no science to support the loony conclusion in this video. CO2 is a small part of greenhouse gases. There is no agreed upon peer-reviewed evidence of warming. Climate change is trendy propaganda, since there is always climate change, always has been. (Venice was a swamp, once upon a time; Britain was a peninsula of France, once upon a time.) The Senate is earnest ignorance on climate. Phil Jones threatens suicide for his despair. James Hansen is a paranoid. The IPCC is junk science, bad research, sloppy hucksterism, lazy glamor. Game on for cap and trade. A snowstorm in Washington prevents the Senate from starting debate in committee. Deeply strange that this is now a national mania.
Now that climate change has been certifiably demonstrated to have been a fraud, what else has been fraud? When we were said to have been on the brink of economic collapse? Y2K? Global swine and bird flu pandemic? Poverty? Racism? Terrorism? WMD? Health care crisis? No child left behind? Toyota? The Obama presidency?
Every one of these issues has been politicized. Each one has been orchestrated, promoted and exploited primarily by the Left: Democrats; Marxists; globalists. Each issue has been used as a vehicle to accelerate wealth re-distribution from the private to the public (non-productive) sector; promote panic, chaos; drive wedges; create political power bases based on threat and fear.
The American people will have to begin taking a closer look at every one of these issues (as well as emerging ones) and ask questions. Ordinarily, a free and impartial press would function as the instrument of such scrutiny. But the press itself has become an issue – a platform for the high rollers who have brought us… (well?) fraud.
In all this it’s trust that’s lacking. We can no longer believe what we are told. The propaganda we’re hearing clashes with what we see. We are told the government is broke. The IRS is charged with cracking down on tax cheats, closing loopholes; promoting fairness all around. Meanwhile half of those now in power have distinguished themselves by having broken tax laws. None have been prosecuted; none have gone to jail – as we would have.
There are two classes of privilege in this country: those in power of whom it is said they can do no wrong; and, we, who must negotiate as best we can under a maze of gibberish law and restriction that renders us permanently guilty no matter what we do or how we do it. Whereas they live in their insular Washington hell, we are the livestock out in the stall. Whenever the overbearing stress of ennui strikes them, they come out to the barn and bloody the sheep.
Not much in our news about Argentina these days. But it might do to check it out. It might well be a snapshot of where we’re headed. Cleo’s lessons of history ignored, condemns us to making the same mistakes over and over again.

The GE/Siemens/Goldman/Toyota/Sierra club Green-Industrial complex.
Look at Congress buying air-tankers and jets we do not need, the Green-Industrial complex will lobby to get solar panels, windmills, and itsy-bitsy cars.
The politico video show that EnvironMENTALism is a religion, evidence to the contrary does not faze them. They worship at the Church of Gaia.
John,
Re: The Executive Summary of the IPCC reports. They are written by politicians attached to the UN, not by the scientists. That is why the anomalies and reservations and cautions that become modest scientists are omitted from the ES. Source: Chris Horner.
