I thought this was only Ellen who said this. Is there more than 1.

You need to get out more. There have been dozens of examples of this. Here are just a few.

Ellen Goodman

Scott Pelley And Catherine Herrick of 60 Minutes

Scott Pelley of 60 Minutes and Al Gore

PBS newsman Bill Moyers, Grist Magazine’s staff writer David Roberts, and Al Gore.

OK. The article states:

“Global warming supporters have claimed that critics of their climate theory are akin to Holocaust deniers”

Ellen Goodman wrote exactly that. No question. That is 1.

The thing with Grist is just a wacko and by no means prominent enough to count for anything. Just like the crazies who were showing up at funerals to protest homosexuals do not reflect the anti-homo-agenda movement.

I just don’t buy it with the whole - he interviewed this guy or that guy. It is drive-by-media gotcha akin to saying the views of a given University or Golf Club reflect on where a politician speaks or plays golf. Yes, the left does it, but we hate them for it.

Al Gore and Scott Pelly made the comparison to the holocaust, but they did not say that denying global warming is akin to denying the holocaust. They just didn’t say that.

Am I picking nits... Of course. Does the left do exactly and 1000 times worse than this. Of course they do.

My apologies for wanting conservatives to have a higher standard. Perhaps me, and an awful lot of Americans with some standards are the reason the GOP is out of power in Congress. Or maybe it is the lack of the GOP having standards higher than the RATS anymore.
