Global Warming Rope-A-Dope....(global warming ia a blatant lie )

Americans have been rope-a-doped into believing that global warming is going to destroy our planet. Scientists who have been skeptical about manmade global warming have been called traitors or handmaidens of big oil. The Washington Post asserted on May 28, 2006 that there were only "a handful of skeptics" of manmade climate fears. Bill Blakemore on Aug. 30, 2006 said, "After extensive searches, ABC News has found no such (scientific) debate on global warming." U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change Executive Secretary Yvo de Boer said it was "criminally irresponsible" to ignore the urgency of global warming. U.N. special climate envoy Dr. Gro Harlem Brundtland on May 10, 2007 declared the climate debate "over" and added "it's completely immoral, even, to question" the U.N.'s scientific "consensus." In July 23, 2007, CNN's Miles O'Brien said, "The scientific debate is over." Earlier he said that scientific skeptics of manmade catastrophic global warming "are bought and paid for by the fossil fuel industry, usually."

The global warming scare has provided a field day for politicians and others who wish to control our lives. After all, only the imagination limits the kind of laws and restrictions that can be written in the name of saving the planet. Recently, more and more scientists are summoning up the courage to speak out and present evidence against the global warming rope-a-dope. Atmospheric scientist Stanley B. Goldenberg of the Hurricane Research Division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said, "It is a blatant lie put forth in the media that makes it seem there is only a fringe of scientists who don't buy into anthropogenic global warming."

The one thing I really disliked about the “war on drugs” when it first started was the “pay anything” to get it accomplished. And in the US, most people agreed that it was the worst thing happening and needed to be addressed at all costs.

Now, with the war on drugs having been a pretty expensive, yet rather futile attempt (see Government ran war in Vietnam for comparison), the US and the world is looking for something else to start digging deeper into our wallets.

As usual, Walter hits the nail on the head.

I always loved his appearances as a guest host for Rush - “Black by popular demand !” His commentaries on smoking are priceless.

I heard Rush yesterday and I didn't get the day or days but Williams will do some Rush guest appearances over the next week or so.

AND, go and read the Senate minority report at the featured link. Fascinating. Show it to your ‘believing’ friends and neighbors over the holidays ;-)

Also this one http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=13773 makes reference to Gore telling his science advisor that ‘we can’t let science intrude on public policy’ OMG!

Dr. Williams, Dr. Sowell and Justice Thomas do not need the Race Industry to support them. They are men with minds of their own and therefore very dangerous to the left.

I respect all 3. I agree that Dr. Williams is one of the best guest hosts Rush has.
