Fairly Conservative

To a sufficient degree; in an evenhanded manner.

A manufactured crisis

Thanks to a reader that sent me this. I had heard of John Coleman’s public assertion against Al Gore a few days ago. You can watch it on this Fox link, look about halfway down the page.

Here’s my challenge. Let’s spend a few days finding and posting research pro and con on global warming. One of the things that intrigued me about the interview was Coleman’s comment that this winter was a degree colder worldwide.

I’m also curious – has anyone bought the carbon offsets that they are talking about? Here’s a chart of the various options. (Someday before I leave this earth I SOOOOO want to be the person that comes up with a scam like this one!)

    I guarantee you that the people who have bought into this baloney won’t read the information that Coleman presents, and they will just denounce him as a ignoramus. We have at least one regular blogger who buys this stuff hook, line, and sinker and only because he hears it from the purveyors of lies. This is nothing more than another way for the new world order people to get more control over us. Our Constitution should protect us but they are going to run right over it.

    This reminds me of Johan Tetzel selling indulgences…

    The New World Order is being purveyed by pharmaceutical, oil and defense contractors–not tree huggers. The NAFTA superhighway is thanks to Neocon bozos, not tree huggers.

    Good try, El Gato (even at you’re poorly masked barb at my views)

    This is why liberals fight so hard against home schooling and virtual schools. They want to mold our children’s impressionable minds while they are young. Then they can teach global warming, redistribution of wealth, illegal immigration, dependence on government, etc. By the time our children reach college, they are well-indoctrinated. K4 and K3 give them an earlier start in the brain-washing process. Look at all the youth following a candidate with very little experience and extreme liberal views.

    How will the “global warmers” view this? As heresy, that how!

    So may label the cooling data as “inconveniently true.”
