No one proposes a return to the widespread agricultural use that severely harmed ecosystems in the United States and Europe decades ago. The results of such spraying were famously depicted in Rachel Carson's landmark 1962 book Silent Spring, which launched the modern environmental movement.

Except that the "results of such spraying" depicted in Miss Carson's book were all lies.

Two books in the twentieth century killed over a hundred million people each - Mein Kampf and Silent Spring.

We are indeed forunate that the New Media is here. Otherwise, Al Gore's movie, instead of being a laughable propoganda piece believable to only the few environ-wacko koolaid drinkers, it is quickly and easily debunked within the bloggosphere.

Michael Moore, a Margaret Mead or Rachel Carson, even a what's her name- that fake-suburban-housewife-actually-a-commie-journalist-who-wrote -Feminine-Mystique- Betty Friedan. Yeah, instead of creating "War of the World" radio broadcast-type hysteria, is now only fodder to keep the koolaiders or the ignorant (e.g., college students) under their intellecutal thumb.

Global warming is just their attempt to pull another Rachel Carson or Population Explosion myth and fear for them to grab power. I do hope the New Media is powerful enough to continue to stop the manipulation.

For example, if I hear Dick Morris say, once more time, that the far left is upset at Hilary's fake pro-Iraq war stance, which is only to dupe the mushy middle who still watches CBS/ABC/NBC, I think I will be sick. All the lefties know what a lefty she is, and will pretend to be upset, pull the lever for her, along with anyone they can dupe into believing she's a "moderate."

Sorry, I digress.
