The Global Warming Swindle

One of the things I try to do here is to simplify the things the liberals want to complicate to fool people who would know better if they "paid attention to politics." One of those is the "climate control swindle" personified by former Vice-President AlGore, who took a "naturally-occurring phenomenon" and made it into a "money-making scam" for himself. The simple truth of it is that the current (and future) rise in global temperature of about one-fourth of a degree in the next 100 years is not a crisis. It is not something we should worry about and, to avoid it(if we could), that we should spend a lot of money (a lot of it going into Al's pocket and the pockets of his global-warming friends). Climate temperature is CYCLICAL. It goes up and down. It has since the beginning of this world and will continue until its end. The idea that man could accelerate it or DEcelerate it is absurd. Dr. Fred Singer is a noted climatologist. He actually DESIGNED many of the instruments today's climatologists USE to measure our climate. AlGore has NO "credentials" that allow him to be believed when he says this naturally-occurring phenomena" is "man-made" nor that man can put a stop to it or even "even things out" by buying the "carbon equalizers" his company sells to make the gullible think planting trees will accomplish it. Even if we COULD "do something about" climate warming, it's NOT a "crisis, his "the sky is falling" cries notwithstanding. Al is using the time-worn method of "name-calling" to "demonize" people who criticize him, calling them "global warming deniers," as if that meant that they did not know wherof they speak. If he hears about this item, he'll no doubt call ME a "global warming denier," and he'll be right, by MY definition, but not by his. Frankly, if you were confronted with such information by AlGore, a man with NO "credentials," and information to the contrary by such a man as Dr. Fred Singer, which would you be inclined to believe? For me, it would be Dr. Singer. Gore's camp even tried to debunk Singer's words by accusing him (without proof, of course) of "selling his science" in several areas, including his stand against "second-hand smoke" as a danger AND his stand against global warming as something to worry about. If you want to get more complicated, see the article linked below concerning Gore's contention that "global warming is settled science." It is, but not the way Gore would like it to be.
