Give It Up, Progressives: You Have Lost the Global Warming Argument
breitbart.com ^ | 3/2/2016 | James Delingpole

Posted on 03/02/2016 6:59:43 AM PST by rktman

After my attack on activist and environmental journalist Mark Lynas, I thought I’d test the waters with Tom Chivers who is a science editor at Buzzfeed.

Chivers has been a nemesis of mine since my days at the Telegraph. A likeable, good natured nemesis – but an irritant nonetheless. It's bloody annoying when you're a seasoned hack breaking stories like Climategate showing alarmists to be a bunch of lying charlatans and you’ve got some dogged progressive fresh out of 'uni' in the neighbouring pages, brandishing his science degree like it automatically trumps your Oxford arts degree, explaining patiently, goodnaturedly, passively aggressively that there’s this thing called the "science" and that what the "science" shows is that global warming is real, regardless of what some batshit crazy conspiracy theorist from the bad old days when the Telegraph was conservative might say.

Have fun poking the pigs James. In a Brit humor sorta way. Regardless, even though the "issue" seems to be near the bottom of the list of concerns form most people, it doesn't mean the money grubbing grant takers will quiet down any time soon. Too much money at stake. And you know how some people get when you mess with their money.

They never lose any argument.

It’s the evil non lefties that are working to thwart the kindly, smiling, compassionate, sensitive do gooder left wing.

IIRC, something big is expected to occur with the sun in 2030. This will make things here cooler.

I don’t remember what that is exactly.

Of course, then, ChiComs want to wait to sign on to AGW until 2030.

And India will simply laugh.

One thing about Progressives that I have to admire. They never give up. If it takes em 100 years and they lose all their fights, they keep going until they win one.

Climate change is real. It exists. We all know it. There were ice ages, warm ages. Glaciers come and go. The Earth is a dynamic machine that changes constantly. Our Sun drives the process. It too is a dynamic machine capable of great swings in activity. Each swing affects Earth in some way.

Now...Man Made/Anthropogenic Climate Change? Horse pucky. What hubris to think that our species has anywhere near the power to create such change. We are as fleas on an elephant's hide.

Liberal elites ‘fight’ against nonexistent global warming is used as justifications for their theft of grant money... These are bad people.

Cosmic rays were measured at an all time high back in 2009 because of the Solar minimum on your chart. Exploding stars create highly energetic cosmic rays which the Sun’s magnetic field deflects away from our solar system. According to the Chilling Stars theory, highly energetic cosmic radiation seed clouds in our atmosphere which cools the Earth.

The global alarmists have decades of bad science which have failed to explain the measured data, but the Chilling Stars guys are nailing it. Eventually if the data keeps matching their theory we can quit worrying about the hacks running around chanting climate deniers because they will be viewed as failed scientists.

Yup. If they are losing an argument, to them it just means that they have not sufficiently propagandized the children enough.

They’re as much the offspring of nineteenth century neo-pagan romanticism, Wagner, the “Noble Savage”, Rousseau and all that tripe, as the Nazis. They see humanity (except themselves, of course) as an unnatural and disposable inconvenience.

Worse is their knowledge that the Right will do NOTHING to correct what is known to be wrong/false/Socialist in the ‘go along to get along’ ideal.

And some wonder why I want the stupid party to die, die, DIE already; a DT win might actually do it. WHOLE lot of heads ‘ploding if that were to happen.

‘Global Warming’ or ‘Anthropogenic Global Whatever’ is not a scientific arguement, no matter what terms it is couched in.
‘Anthropogenic Global Whatever’is the Original Sin of Gaia worship, the religion of choice of the Transnational Progressives, ak ‘Tranzis.’ The argument for them is not a scientific one, but a religious one, and they will not tolerate heretics or unbelievers.

Obviously tough to make a detailed assessment here but preliminary verdict is NOT GUILTY...
