America's Right: Bad Money, Bad Science, and Bad Decisions

UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown, climate cult member

Amongst Brown’s message for Congress were three important passages on oil and climate. The first was a general concept of a “planet imperilled. “Past British prime ministers have travelled to this Capitol building in times of war to talk of war,” said Brown. “I come now to talk of new and different battles we must fight together; to speak of a global economy in crisis and a planet imperilled.”

Alarmist Executive Director of the Sierra Club Carl Pope misrepresents climate realists

Washington, DC -- As the Obama administration begins moving America forward, the screams of anguish from its opponents are becoming a tad hysterical. There was George Will's stunningly inaccurate attack on Energy Secretary Steve Chu, in which Will claimed that Chu, who has a Nobel Prize (something that Will, so far as I know, has yet to earn), was misrepresenting climate science by saying that global warming could melt most of California's icepack. Will's flat-earth argument -- there hasn't been any global warming!

When thousands of student climate activists came to Washington to push for adoption of President Obama's call for doing something -- now -- about climate change, Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe and Fox News both claimed that the big snowstorm that arrived at the same time was proof that global warming was a hoax.
