Brooks also sat there mutely while the blatantly lying Shields characterized global warming skeptics as “people who don’t like the remedy, so they reject the science.” Recognizing the liberal penchant for projection, you could turn that inside out, namely, that leftists like the idea of crippling our economy, just out of “fairness” to the rest of the world and denying us the resources to maintain hegemonic military power, so they embrace seriously flawed and even demonstrably manufactured science. Of course, there are other reasons to embrace the “remedy,” like Gore’s millions.

Yeah, we'll really love "fairness" when some Turd World kleptocrat delivers a couple of military-grade nuclear weapons in our big cities. And I do mean military-grade, not like the driveway demonstrators we test-drove for Emperor Hirohito.

Google up "nuclear weapons effects" and dial up some numbers for a 100-kiloton fission weapon, which is in the ballpark of the upper end of the "tactical" spectrum of violence. Then apply those numbers to your favorite large SMSA (Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area), and try to form a mental picture of what will be left.

These guys are living in the military past. Guys like DinnerJacket aren't just playing around. They all want to be like the Domino's Pizza driver and deliver in 30 minutes or less.
