If They're Wrong About Gore-bal Warming, So What? [Larry Elder]

Dear Larry,

I'm a Democrat, and I enjoy your work. And I get very frustrated by those on the left who whine and are thin on the facts. This brings me to my reason for this letter: Global warming.

The global warming debate is unique to humanity. If those who advocate "wait and convince more scientists" are wrong, following their advice may affect hundreds of millions of people, with possibly many killed by famine and flooding. On the other hand, if the people who advocate doing something now are wrong, the worst is mostly economic. That's a price I'm more than willing to pay to hedge my bets to protect the millions of lives at risk, as well as the ecosystems and animal species facing extinction.

Following the advice of the vast majority of the world's atmospheric scientists sounds like a bet all humans should take. -- Mr. Ph.D.

This attitude comes from the same kind of mind that says about some proposal,"if it saves just ONE innocent life it is worth whatever it costs, you can't put a price on human life". ...unless of course you are talking about abortion, then that tactic is declared 'unfair'.

Liberals spend a lot of time and energy worrying over non-issues. Global warming won't affect any one on the planet alive today. Bjorn Lomberg has written the money to be spent on global warming could provide vaccinations, clean drinking water and better food plants to millions in need of them. We're the first civilization in history contemplating spending billions of dollars on a problem that doesn't exist in our own lifetime and the solutions proposed to deal with it won't actually address the supposed threat. That is the crux of the matter in the so-called global warming debate. There isn't one because its all made-up.

That has to be one of the stupidest leaps of liberal logic I have never read on Free Republic, or anywhere else for that matter.

This is an excellent example of just how flawed conclusions from people who obviously lack the gene required to process reality can be. This type of logic seems steeped in the liberal’s notion that the lack of evidence of one thing is therefore proof positive of another thing.

Believe me, stupid is the kindest word I can think of when describing the befuddled thinking of this mental midget.
