Pointing Fingers While Circling the Drain

~Cato & Seneca
As beleaguered climate normalcy deniers face heated opposition and ridicule from real practicing scientists, they have erupted into a bilious rage against those who have exposed their malfeasance and intrigue.

They are not going down without a fight however and as a little kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar, they are now seen throwing a tantrum and breaking dishes - all to deflect from the fact that their strident calls for cultural suicide  have now been exposed for what they really are.


From a story in the news 


In private e-mails obtained by The Washington Times, climate scientists at the National Academy of Sciences say they are tired of "being treated like political pawns"

Uh, sorry, you guys are the ones who have injected politics – and money – into this



and need to fight back in kind.  Their strategy includes forming a nonprofit group to organize researchers and use their donations to challenge critics by running a back-page ad in the New York Times.

Why don’t you try fighting back and challenging critics with science instead of ads in the NYT – hardly the place for a “non-partisan”debate.



"Most of our colleagues don't seem to grasp that we're not in a gentlepersons' debate, we're in a street fight against well-funded, merciless enemies who play by entirely different rules," Paul R. Ehrlich, a Stanford University researcher, said in one of the e-mails.


Oh, come now, on whose side is the money in this street fight?
Who stands to make millions?
Which side has the funding might of government agencies behind it?
Entirely different rules? Who has perverted the dispassionate rules of science?

Paul Ehrlich? You wouldn’t mean the Paul Ehrlich of discredited Population Bomb fame, would you? The same alarmist Paul Ehrlich that 40 years ago ran around like chicken little screaming that there would be mass starvation of humans in 1970s and 1980s due to overpopulation and advocated immediate action to limit population growth.

The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now. At this late date nothing can prevent a substantial increase in the world death rate...
Of course,none of that ever came close to happening and now he and his ilk are on the  band wagon of humans burning up in a conflagration caused by not using compact fluorescents!

What a crock.

You almost can't make this stuff up. Science has been corrupted for years with this global warming crap. And when they get caught, they just write it off as a simple error but the problem is real lie.

I read Al Gore's little blurb last week in the NY Times where he said "Oh how I wish this weren't true but it is..." What a load of crap. Our country is becoming a nation of men not laws. Of protected groups not freemen.

Hey RKL

Thanks for your comment. You know, I write this stuff and sometimes I wonder I am just doing it all for nothing. Then every once in a while, comments like yours make me keep at it because they let me know that there is another out there that has not yet drunk the Kool-Aid.
