Global Warming Cools Off
Allie Winegar Duzett, October 27, 2009
No matter if the crisis is global warming or global cooling, the environmental left always provides the same answers to the world’s woes, Marc Morano of Climate Depot noted at Accuracy in Media’s 40th Anniversary Conference: more government control. In a panel on climate change, Morano stated, “Rainforest destruction, global cooling—whatever the eco-scare of the day is, they’ll… call for the same solutions, which inevitably involve more government control and a whole environmental-left wish list.”
Morano pointed out that we are now in the middle of a cooling trend globally, noting that scientists now say that there may be a pause of up to thirty more years before global warming begins again.
“If there’s a thirty-year pause in [global] warming, today’s high school kids who are forced to watch Al Gore’s [An Inconvenient Truth] will be old enough to join AARP, the retirement group—they’ll be almost age fifty by the time warming resumes, if these new studies are correct,” Morano said. “This is what’s called a ‘PR problem’ with the United Nations and Al Gore, and it’s why the New York Times’ Andrew Revkin said, ‘the UN has a PR problem: how do you sell a global warming catastrophe in a time of cooling climate?’”
Morano calls our current cooling trend “the Gore effect,” the idea being that the more Gore complains about global warming, the more the globe cools in response. It’s a joke that seems strangely validated by global climate events over the years. In fact, Morano noted, the current global climate has already caused hundreds of climate scientists to disagree with the anthropogenic global warming (AGW) hypothesis: that man is causing warming.....

I like the quote in the article by former U. S. Senator Timothy Wirth (D-CO), “Even if [global warming] is wrong, we’re doing the right thing by policy."
Like Dan Rather: Fake, but accurate. It's not about the science. It's about control. Power. Redistribution of wealth.
Yep. That’s why this issue has been a godsend to the left. They can claim “science” supports their desire to force people back to a subsistence economy and to abandon the automobile, heck, even force us to be vegans according to yesterday’s story.
