Neal Boortz: The never-ending circus that is “climate change”
Small Government Times ^ | November 30, 2009 | Neal Boortz

Posted on 11/30/2009 7:30:34 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Have you been keeping up with this Climategate story? If you limit your information gathering to The New York Times, you may have missed it. Let’s start at the beginning. Where did this global warming nonsense come from in the first place? See how this fits:

The international community, working through the basically anti-American United Nations, starts dreaming of world-wide wealth redistribution. Well … actually wealth isn’t distributed, at least not here in the United States. Here, for the most part, it is earned. Even the poor, poor pitiful poor in this country earn whatever wealth they have. They don’t exactly do it by punching a clock. Why go through all that trouble when all you have to do is punch a ballot.

OK … so you have all these half-assed third world countries with their dictators of various stripes eyeing the wealth of the developed, industrial nations. They want some of that wealth, though they aren’t willing to earn it. Why would some dictator tolerate a productive economy that might threaten his continued rule? Freedom – the necessary ingredient for a productive economy – has a way of causing domestic intranquility for dictators. So working through free markets isn’t going to cut it. They will simply have to arrange whatever wealth they cannot seize handed to them. The best conduit for this wealth would be the UN.

OK … so you’re going to use the United Nations to transfer wealth from the big, fat wealthy nations to the corruption-plagued third world. But you’re going to need a pretext? Hmmmmm. You need to come up with some way these nations are hurting you; some action these ugly rich nations are taking that is causing you harm. You’re not under military attack. Your property isn’t being conquered and seized … at least not by the U.S. and Western Europe. But there is one thing! Now I don’t have any idea how this idea was brought to fruition … but it’s brilliant!

When the cold war ended the world was littered with disaffected and discouraged communists and socialists. Their precious ideal of one world under Communism had melted away before their eyes. The Berlin Wall was aggregate and the Soviet Union was breaking apart. The precious hammer and sickle was being replaced by a Russian flag of red, white and blue stripes. These lost communists and anti-capitalists needed a new next. They were homeless. Where to turn?

The founder of the environmental group Greenpeace can tell you where these lost communists went. They headed straight for the environmental movement. Within weeks of the fall of the Soviet Union Greenpeace offices and rallies were suddenly crowded with unkempt people wearing Che Guavara t-shirts and Mao hats. This was the chosen new way to attack capitalism; not through the recitation of Communist doctrine, but through phony environmental concerns. Now capitalism was to be attacked not for its oppression of the working man, but for its affect on pour creeks, our lakes, and the air we breathe. The environmental movement became the home of anti-capitalists around the world.

What a perfect fit for third-world countries desirous of arranging for mighty transfers of wealth from the evil rich nations! They could work with the environmentalists to attack capitalism for all of the evil things that capitalists do to the fish and birds and stuff — and for heating up our earth! These rich nations will need to pay! First we’ll cook up some treaty that will slow down their economic growth … then we’ll find a way through the UN to make them pay for the damage they’ve already done. We can cripple their evil capitalist empire and get our hands on their wealth with a grand global warming scare campaign!

OK … I need to cut this short. The United Nations and various environmental groups started pouring money into global warming research. Other nations, including the United States, joined in. After all, if you don’t fund research into the affects of global warming, you really don’t care what happens to our climate, do you? The scientists wanted to keep the money coming. To do that they knew they would have to bow to the dictates of political correctness … and political correctness being a left-wing creation these scientists knew that they had better determine that man is going to cause this earth to become some sort of a convected oven if we don’t slow down … and the United Nations is just the crowed to do it.

So now we have discovered that one of the premiere research facilities involved in global warming research has been … well, “faking it” is not too strong a phrase to use here.

Many of us already knew global warming to be a fraud. When scientists refuse to acknowledge the cyclical nature of solar activity in a discussion on global warming you have to scratch your head in wonder. Plus – when someone tells you that the science “is settled” and that there is “nothing left to debate;” you know that the science is anything but settled and there is plenty to debate.

The first news broke a bit over a week ago. Someone got into the computers at The University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit. This is one of the premiere global warming research institutes and has been constantly cited in stories warning us that we are cooking ourselves. Now there are thousands of emails from the East Anglia CRU detailing the “tricks” that were used to cook the data and the efforts made to ignore and to create a virtual exile for any scientists who dared to disagree with man-made global warming doctrine.

But .. here’s the kicker. I alluded to it at the beginning of this bit. Now these scientists at the East Anglia CRM have admitted that they disposed of the raw data they used to conjure up their tales of man-made global warming. Just in case you’re not a scientist .. throwing away your raw data is considered a big-time no no. There is, however, one really big reason why you might want to do this – toss the raw data into the garbage – and that would be if the data doesn’t support your “learned” conclusion.

So now we will never be able to look at the original data these scientists gathered. Now we’re truly at the point that were we have nothing left to do but take their word for it. Sorry .. .but when much of the undeveloped world is gunning for my bank account, I’m not sure I want to take these scientists word for anything.

Perhaps the more interesting story at this point is the failure of the ObamaMedia to pick up on the story. I guess the global warmers are going to have to find some other cause to disguise their wealth seizure and re-distribution schemes.

None of this seems to be slowing down The Community Organizer. He’s heading to Copenhagen where the left and those after our wealth are going to try to cobble together a replacement for the hideous Kyoto Treaty.

Recently there has been an uptick in the number of stories on climate change. Here are a few of my favorites:

-Doctors in Great Britain are being told to educate their patients on the benefits of tackling climate change and lowering their carbon footprint.

-Experts say that lights on expressways should be turned off at night in order to protect the environment. It stops pollution and prevents the disruption of the life cycles of birds and bats and other wildlife.

-The president of Brazil says that the “gringos” should pay Amazon nations to prevent deforestation.

By “gringos” he means Western nations .. aka. the United States.

It’s a fraud, folks. How long are we going to tolerate these asinine ideas?

I saw some poor sap with a bumpersticker that said, "My CO2 offsets are provided by...." then some dumba$$ name with Terra in it. Wotta self-righteous jerk.

If the enviros had any brains they would have turned tail and run the minute they saw that algore wanted in on their scam. Nothing algore has done has ever come to anything but failure and ridicule and this will be no exception. OK sure, maybe they would have failed without him as well, but he’s the guy who when you look up assclown in the dictionary you see his picture.

Every time someone uses the phrase “global warming”, you should just start laughing uncontrollably and say, “You really BELIEVE that sh*t?????”

I have an idea. Why don’t we send gift cards for Dr. Kevorkian (AKA Dr. Death) to all the liberals? It would reduce both the carbon footprint and the number of a$$holes in the world!

Now the AlGorians are trying to turn the tables: non-believers have to PROVE that climate change is NOT happening (which is irrelevant, because of course it changes constantly) and further , non-believers must PROVE that humans are NOT causing it. Of course, proving negatives is very difficult. Don’t expect the ignoramuses who buy this nonsense to understand the concept of burden of proof. The AlGorians of course have never presented any evidence either that CO2 causes climate change, or that humans are causing it. For the AlGorian religion, it’s a matter of blind faith.

How about a bumper sticker that says “My CO2 offsets could be provided by your corpse!”

I find Boortz hard to listen to when he says he wants pro-lifers to die, but I agree with him in the “climate change” swindle.

Sad.

In conversation the other night, with a good friend, highly placed with a major energy provider, he still doesn't get it. He was the one who discouraged me when I was drinking the Gia theory cool-aid all those years ago.

He knows the emails and the evidence is damning, he began that the co2 levels are a concern when I cut his tortured reasoning off. "Dude. The earth is a small body in close orbit with a fusion fireball a million times our size. Galaxy's collide. Many objects that could wipe us out are moving all around us. There's nothing wrong with being a good steward, but try to picture the whole reality."

This is a completely ignorant scenario. The fascist left had infused environmentalism for fifty years before the fall of the Berlin Wall. Lenin was expert at using "environmentalism" to starve people by the millions.

I'm keeping a running file, always updated, on the Climate Change Swindle:

"Hadley CRU has apparently been hacked –[epic fraud?]"

Click the picture:



And yes, it is a swindle- a fraud and a cheat and a scam-- a deliberately designed construct intended to con you out of things you hold dear-- money, prosperity, freedom... and a few other things, as well.

However, here are the two papers that,
in my opinion,
demolish AGW/Climate Change and place it in its rightful realm of -phlogiston "science"--

The medical profession has confirmed that a poison contained in a United Nations variant of fudge was the cause of a debilitating brain disease among scientists, now termed Climate Wars Syndrome (CWS).

The disease was secretly suspected by sceptical scientists to have spread rapaciously among the scientific community for two decades and to have taken a terrible grip over the reasoning powers of many. Victims can be identified by their green and alarmist complexion. Other side effects include an irrational hatred of mankind and a Tourette syndrome-like verbal abuse of anyone who uses fossil fuels. Threats of violence may occur. The world first learned of these sensational developments from the Internet on Friday November 20th 2009. The story broke that both the underlying cause of CWS and an effective treatment had been discovered by the due diligence of one man working at the UK’s Climate Research Unit (CRU). A vast community of Internet surfers soon memorialised these profound events by naming them, ‘Climategate.’

From leaked documents we understand that the catalyst for this epoch change in science occurred when a climatologist and self-taught computer programmer known only as ‘Harry’ was sat at his laboratory computer chewing on some fudge. Only after three long years working on this problem and in a sudden eureka moment, did it finally dawn on him. In Harry’s hands was the cause of brain fog mystery.

“F**k! It’s the fudge! It’s serial!” he cried.

Inadvertently, Harry has become the hero the public associate with solving one of the great mysteries of modern science. Since those findings have appeared on the Internet the world has quickly accepted that it was the UN’s foul fudge that caused scientists to suffer this dreadful disease.

Meanwhile, epidemiologists and clinicians have been quick to identify the hallucinagenic properties of the offending fudge to further unravel the mystery. Incredibly, the fudge has been found to contain a psychotropic substance that acts primarily upon the central nervous system where it alters brain function, resulting in changes in perception, mood, consciousness and behavior leading patients to feel delusions of grandeur and a sense of spiritual purpose in their lives.

It appears lone-wolf Harry, wiling away his time in the CRU laboratory subliminally faced the truth and by a process of ‘cognitive dissonance,’ shocked himself out of the effects of the psychotropic intoxicant, a drug now known to cause the hallucinogenic appearance of a mythical beast known as, ‘Man-Bear-Pig’ (MBP). Other experts who have replicated Harry’s experiments confirm the efficacy of the cognitive dissonance reasoning process as a cure. Apparently, most recovering ‘addicts’ (for this fudge-eating was clearly an addiction) soon notice a change starting with improvements in the appearance of their eyes which lose their tainted green colouration.

Other convalescing climatologists, that body of scientists identified as the worst fudge sufferers, are reporting the same side effects as Harry. Symptoms include anxiety, guilt, shame, anger, embarrassment, stress, and other negative emotional states that torment the patient. Epidemiologists have coined the name ’Climate War Syndrome’ (CWS) to describe the fudge-induced malady. Both ‘Climategate’ and ’Climate War Syndrome’ (CWS) have fast entered common usage giving a new handle on what was one of the great mysteries of our time.

Of course, like any serious disease, there will always be patients who won’t respond well to treatment. Those worst cases permeated with the deepest shade of green are believed to be James Hansen, Michael ‘upside down’ Mann and Phil Jones whom, its feared, may all need to be quarantined in isolation for several years.
