Why no real debate on global warming? - Vallejo Times Herald

Global warming - as proclaimed by Al Gore and company - is a hoax!

Much is made of the "consensus" in the United Nations committee dealing with global warming. It should be noted that very few of its members are meteorologists. It should also be remembered that science is based on facts, not consensus. The facts do not point to the dire consequences promoted so loudly by Mr. Gore and the media.

The global warming story is full of half-truths, outright falsehoods, and speculation. That Mr. Gore received a Nobel Prize and an Academy Award shows the politics of those organizations, not any scientific acumen.

How The Age preaches:

If society is to confront climate change, it must change its behaviour and the way it conducts business.

How The Age “conducts business”:

The Age is rewarding a handful of its best Victorian Real Estate Agent clients with a special bonus: a trip to South America.

...Why aren’t these facts included, so listeners can make up their own minds? Why did Burns fail to interview a single dissenter from her warming faith, or ask a single sceptical question?This is not reporting but propagandising, and listeners would have been profoundly misled.

American Thinker: Obama's Craftiness

Barack Obama has also proclaimed his support for nuclear energy (his campaign manager David Axelrod has had one very important client besides Obama: Exelon, a major nuclear power utility player. Axelrod planned and executed an Astroturf maneuver -- a fake, corporate sponsored ostensibly "grassroots" campaign, in this case, to compel Illinois to grant the utility the power to raise rates.

Obama has touted his environmental credentials. With global warming scare, nuclear power has become one of the formerly verboten energy sources some environmentalists have warmed to. Yet he has worked to kill the chances of nuclear power becoming an important power source for Americans. Along with the Majority Leader, Nevada Senator Harry Reid, Obama has supported all foreclosing the possibility of using Yucca Mountain (located far away from any people) as a nuclear waste repository. He even advocated the abandonment of the entire project. This despite the fact that billions have been spent developing this critically needed site. This opposition comes despite the fact that America is running out of places to store nuclear waste (right now it is done on-site). This opposition despite studies that show Yucca to be a safe way to store the relatively small amount of nuclear waste generated by our power plants.

Paul Mirengoff of Powerline caught Obama in another legislative sleight of hand . The candidate has long opposed off-shore drilling, following the views of many other liberal interest groups. Obama has now flip-flopped again and made a feint towards supporting offshore drilling. Yet Obama, according to Mirengoff,

"has also led a one-man crusade to keep the American people ignorant about what is at stake in the debate over off-shore drilling".
