"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!"

... not happening ...

When I think of "Global Warming"/"Climate Change", I think of the above quote from "The Godfather: Part 3" (it's the most memorable thing about that movie - outside of the bravura performances by Sofia Coppola and Andy Garcia ... heh, heh, heh).  Just when I want to leave this subject behind me, more stupid, ignorant, dumb, obnoxious news comes out about it.  This subject is what's known as "a target rich environment".

For the dedicated environmentalist or "Greenie", this is the rallying point around which you all can wring your hands and chant "the sky is falling ... we're all gonna die".  Not really too bright, but at least sincere.

For Al Gore and Michael Moore, along with all of their business partners, this is a great opportunity to make scads of cash based on absolutely nothing, other than conjecture, rumor and innuendo.  In fact, I'm jealous that I didn't hop on the windmill and sun panel bandwagon far sooner ... I might be a millionaire by now, even though neither one of these products offers a viable solution to the non-existent energy "crisis".

For the politicians, it gives them something to draw your attention away from real issues like a disastrous economy, loss of international prestige and government intrusion into our private lives.  It also gives them a great tool to further rape our wallets ... just tell our "under-informed" voters that we will all soon die from CO2 unless we tax the stuff to death.  Viola!  Carbon Credits (aka: tax)!

For our educational elites, it gives them a tool to talk about a lot of meaningless mumbo-jumbo that even they don't fully understand (just look at the brilliance of their computer "models").  In that way, they can look down their noses at us rubes, while they indoctrinate our kids who we send to college at a hugely inflated cost to learn stuff they will never be able to turn into income.  What a racket!

Finally, it gives the media (you know ... all of those unbiased reporters and editors) red meat to feed their insatiable appetite for "news", regardless of how undocumented that is.  It also gives them a chance to lie by omission, which is exactly the point of the following article:

By the way, you have got to read that article if for no other reason than to read about a bunch of global warming scientists trapped on a boat in the ice that is, by the way, the product of a record year for ice pack growth in Antarctica.

For another chuckle, read about what's happening in the Arctic:

Why would anyone trust the mainstream media, which is really just a political tool?
