Man-Made Global Warming: 10 Questions

HUMAN EVENTS ^ | 12/20/2007 | Pat Sajak

"11. Why can’t we reverse global warming by turning our air conditioners on, full blast, and leaving our doors open?"

Because cold air sinks, and it would all just flow down to Antarctica, where it's already cold.

The global warming scam is all about keeping people in the dark. Its proponents can't afford to have people start asking questions. Since then they might lose their enthusiasm for the extreme lifestyle changes they are demanding.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

Bravo for Mr. Sajak...his 10 questions are a good place to start. There is a multitude of questions that the global warming alarmists refuse to answer, but these are a fair and honest place to start. I won’t be holding my breath for an answer to them, however.

Since the beginning of time there are those who have practiced the art of “Divide and Conquer”. That is what this is and it amazes me that nobody seems to recognize it for what it is.
Many are prone to giving into the “Chicken Little” fear techniques that have been used on simple minded people down through the ages and by the propagandist we know today as the Main Stream Media.
As for myself I always look into their ulterior motives as they have nothing to offer but results that will be detrimental to my welfare - so I resist their scare tactics.
What I don’t get is that so many “Smart” people accept this fear mongering and join the enemy instead of questioning those who’s goal is to separate us from reason, our money, our freedoms and anything else they want to take from us.

Are these warning signs that the movement has become more of an activist cause than a scientific reality?

This is actually just the sort of thing that we should have expected around the turn of the millennium based on the apocalyptic weirdness that took place on the threshold of the second millennium.

I thought Pat Sajak was just a game show host - I had no idea he was also an intelligent thinker.

I think he's on the board of directors at Hillsdale College.

I can almost hear their shrill cry now “It’s too late you fool! There’s no time! Act now, rapid climate change is upon us! We need your unquestioning obedience, money, power, and freedoms...er...I mean support now! The debate is OVER, there’s no time nor reason for this silly objective reasoning thing...”

[jrooney]

Pat Sajak is a class act. Wish more out of Hollywood were like him.

Unfortunately there are GW activists who will condemn Sajak for daring to even ask these questions.

If you want to hear the other side of this debate, Prof. Andrew Dessler made a fairly good case for anthropogenic warming in this blogtalkradio debate.

It isn't much of a debate. His opponent shows up late, and doesn't seem to have good responses to Dessler. The interesting thing about this broadcast is that Dessler eventually gets around to addressing most of the objections that I have heard raised by skeptics.

At this point I don't know what to think about global warming. I wish that ancient_geezer were still around here to explain how Dessler is wrong. I found him depressingly convincing.

[Elsiejay]

He’s also a member of the Board of Regents for Hillsdale College, not to mention Republican.

[gigster]

Pat Sajak had an excellent speech that he gave to Hillsdale College a couple of years back. It’s worth finding if you can.

[gigster]

Note to Self. Check all the other responses before you post
comments. Even I didn’t know he had published THAT much.

Thanks for the link.

[MrEdd]

Apparently he bought a clue

[neverdem]

Thanks for the link.

Because my mom wouldn’t let you. “The Electric Company is rich enough already!”

TChad,
The audio is one and one-half hours long
I listenedfor 8+ minutes.

Can you maybe, if you have the free time, give me a tiny little hint about how it turns out? . !.?

[Cementjungle]

...not to mention Republican.

Which explains why he works with Vanna and not with Rosanne.
