Thanks...I just had to as she was definitely in the wrong with her snide comments. It's sad that we are sliding toward a government driven think tank country. Makes me think we're moving more toward the societies in the movie/books of V for Vendetta and 1984.

I've been a professional scientist since 1967 and I have never seen such false propagandizing, in the name of science, since (as a child in the 1940's) I last saw news reels of Goebbels' efforts.

This propaganda campaign (the Summary precedes the release of the actual scientific findings) is proof that the agenda is neither science, truth, accuracy or benevolent.

Thank you for the link---I've briefly perused it and it looks very interesting.

So then, anyone who disagrees with Dear Ellen is a Nazi, pure and simple?

The Jewish guy objects to the characterization.

And furthermore, thinks that Dear Ellen is a mindless schmuck!

I would like to say we're at a point where global warming is impossible to deny. Let's just say that global warming deniers are now on a par with Holocaust deniers, though one denies the past and the other denies the present and future.

And another thing. Last week, Elie Wiesel was attacked by a real Holocaust denier in a San Fransicko hotel. I suspect he would find Ms. Goodman's hyperbolic comparison insulting.

I'm for energy saving light bulbs and every room in our house has one...it saves money in our electric bill.


If Climate Change was so important why was it voted down in the Senate 95-5 in 1999? Why didn't the Climate Change Guru Al Gore do something then?

This story is a real insult.

It's like PETA who came up with the idea that slaughtering chickens for food was equivalent to the Holocaust.

That's fitting from her perspective as pro-aborts like Goodman are on a par with Holocaust perpetrators.
