- Global Warming: Still A Total Sham

I became bored with the whole climate-change sham about the time that the market exploded. Actually... it was a little before that... but that was the final nail. I knew there was simply no way the American people would allow the charlatans and imbeciles (yes...that's all their is) of the climate change movement accomplish any of their totalitarian ambitions with an unemployment rate as high as it's been since the 30's.

A basic requirement of letting spoiled rich kids from advanced economies get their way bossing others around, is a cushy lifestyle where people don't care too much if the kids want to waste a buck acting like 'know it all's'. But as soon as it starts to cut seriously into the beer money, most civilized societies tell the children that: "no they can't play with the loaded revolver after all because they might kill us... and that would be bad". That's how climate change movement has looked to me... it's been just like an economic loaded revolver in the hands of spoiled children who want to boss everyone around. Now it's been taken away from them so we can relax a little.

I haven't been paying too much attention to the whole climate-gate story because frankly, I don't think it matters. I knew they were lying about the data ages ago and wrote an essay at the time saying so. In fact, the guy who put the random number data into the temperature forecasting program that the IPCC liked so much, only to have it come back with the 'hockey stick' anyway, really did all the work for us back in 2006.

I don't think the emails revealed anything new, but I guess they did make the lies harder to dodge by the worst offenders. But either way, I think global warming as a political issue has been on the decline for some time now, and would have ended in failure whether the emails surfaced or not.

But if you're really interested in that sort of thing, I think it should at least be entertaining to read about. And what could be more entertaining than reading Mark Steyn making fun of the New York Times. You can almost hear him laughing as he whacks away at his keyboard.
