A great summary of where the Administration is on this, and the gaping holes in Obama's (non)argument, with quite a lot of good historical perspective.

Pournelle's personal scientific background with themometry makes for some interesting points.

For those who might miss it, Pournelle's closing is written with huge sarcasm.

Obama has lost his sanity: all he can think about is his choom-head up in the clouds, - - - -, changing, always changing - - - - .

Obama and Kerry are probably still onboard because Gore has made hundreds of millions on this. They expect to get speaker’s fees and funnel grants for kickbacks into their dotage. Green is a money machine because those who are believers give and give and give.

We need to get the taxpayers out of this loop. (Oh, and let’s prosecute those who got the green loans and immediately went profitably bankrupt. I want to know who they donated (kicked-back)to and put them in prison too.

You cannot by definition argue with facts with someone who stands to benefit from the politics of glowBull climate change. Since they believe they advance their agenda, any fact that would be heard by them is ignored, while they have their fingers in their ears and say “la la la la”.

Cut to the chase. It’s a direct attack on the economy of the United States.

1st qtr, 2014 U.S. economic growth was at .01% or less indicating that the economic goal of “Sustainable Development/Agenda 21” as adopted by the U.S. has largely been met. This also fulfills the machiavellian wish of Maurice Strong, UN Chairman of UNCED aka The Rio Earth Summit where in 1992 he articulated the intentions of the “Plan for the 21st Century- Sustainable Development/Agenda 21” by saying this in regard to our “unsustainable” high consumption of natural resources which is, according to them destroying the Earth; “...isn’t it our responsibility to bring about the collapse of the industrialized countries?” Now, to become truly as “Sustainable” as perhaps Bangladesh, more vital work is quickly needed to further collapse and “Degrow” the economy. This will be accomplished with draconian restrictions on business and energy use which will be mandated by arbitrary regulations spawned from the bogus hype to save the planet from the dread effects of antropogenic Global Warming aka Climate Change aka Climate Disruption.

Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt = FUD and this Administration and its cohorts love to spread it liberally. To my knowledge, there is still no model of “global warming” that has survived reality. The complexity of modeling the climate requires true super-computers and that is for relatively short time spans of weeks.

Yet for this semi-religious belief that “SOMETHING MUST BE DONE”, the proponents desire massive spending and regulation that appear to move the needle on fractionally. The fact that the effort maximizes government power and influence is a positive to one side and anathema to the other.

Dr. Pournelle (PhD) has been involved with technology for decades and is quite on top of history as witnessed by both his factual and fictional writings. When the “Global Whatever” advocates hammer the “settled Science” point, I have to ask; how many dissenters does it take to make it unsettled?
