True Patriots Care About Global Warming, Group Says By Susan Jones CNSNews.com Senior Editor June 01, 2007

(CNSNews.com) - "Global warming is the crisis of our time," says the Environmental Defense Action Fund. The activist group is urging Americans to sign a "Declaration of New Patriotism" -- a petition to be delivered to Congress on July 4.

"Today, we recognize that patriotism is not only about love of country. It is also about a shared commitment to the welfare of our planet," Environmental Defense said in a message to supporters.

Signers of the petition pledge to:

-- Recognize that we live in a time of crisis. ("We must be active and forceful in bringing about the necessary changes -- based on science, not politics -- to stop global warming, no matter how difficult that may be," Environmental Defense said in a news release.)

-- Urge elected officials and candidates to pass "strong legislation" to cut America's global warming pollution.

-- Spread the word. (Everyone has a role to play in meeting the global warming challenge, the group says.)

-- Minimize your personal global warming "footprint" (Weigh your personal choices against the needs and rights of future generations.)

"Future generations will judge us based on our success or failure to be good stewards of the Earth, Environmental Defense said. "We owe our children and our children's children nothing less than our very best effort."

Climate change is normal.

People who believe climate is supposed to be static, aren't.

This is scary. These idiots really believe this hype/crap and they are going to jam it on you, like it or not.

What’s gotten into the water? I have moonbats threatening me with prison if I “deny” their precious stupidity, and I have Hajis on the other end threatening my life if I say that Moooohammmer was a pedophile.

I think it is coming close to the time when the Second Amendment be called on to defend the First Amendment.

Somehow I have a hard time visualizing Nathan Hale saying “I only regret that I have but one life to lose to reduce global warming”.

“New Patriotism” = Sell out US for global socialism. Gotta love how liberals love to twist terms.

Ah yes.

And freedom is slavery and slavery is freedom.

We get it.

I do! I really care about Global warming!

... and the trillions upon trillions of dollars that will be sucked out of the govt, biz, individuals and the US economy and fed into every liberal cause, politician and fraud that my darkest nightmares can conjure up.

And this is before we calculate all of the political power that these unbridled lefties are going to gather in the next 20 years and beyond. We'll all be living in caves by then.

My tagline says it all!

to cut America's global warming pollution.

A True Patriot would not want to place America at a competitive disadvantage with the rest of the world and would call for *all* countries to follow our lead if they want to sell products here.

Oh I do care.

I care that people are informed of ALL the FACTS before deciding to take dubious radical actions that harm our nation.

Yeah, I take all my advice on patriotism from an organization that uses the courts to accomplish the same economic terrorism that the Earth Liberation Front advances with gasoline and matches...

The Environmental Defense Action Fund is just another fringe group of whack jobs, who will say anything, no matter how irrational or senseless, to promote their religion (if they can ever figure out what its goals are).

Some sterling examples of the conscious fabrications typically used...

"We have to offer up scary scenarios, make simplified, dramatic statements, and make little mention of any doubts we may have. Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest."
Stephen Schneider (leading advocate of the global warming theory)
(in interview for Discover magazine, Oct 1989)

All this is part of the guerrilla warfare that is going on between proponents and skeptics of global warming. Dennis Deming, a climate scientist at the University of Oklahoma, recently told the Senate about his experience in the field:

“In 1995, I published a short paper in the academic journal Science. In that study, I reviewed how borehole temperature data recorded a warming of about one degree Celsius in North America over the last 100 to 150 years. The week the article appeared, I was contacted by a reporter for National Public Radio. He offered to interview me, but only if I would state that the warming was due to human activity. When I refused to do so, he hung up on me.”

OK Suzy, I am not a true patriot.

I positively, absolutely and permanently refuse to drink that kool-aid or get that lobotomy.

Just sayin...
