Pajamas Media » Obama’s EPA Declares CO2 a Poison

All substances are potential poisons, but if you’re Obama’s EPA you make it CO2. Wonder why? Because there’s gold in them thar gases. It’s the money, honey. But is there just a miniscule amount of CO2 bubbling through the atmosphere? How much are we talking about here?

Only a third of the American population still believes that humans are causing “global warming” — which never existed, of course. That’s after decades of screaming headlines by the wall-to-wall media, a thousand lying sob stories about polar bears drowning on melting ice floes, a million brainwashed school teachers, tens of millions of brainwashed kids, and a determined effort by the international Left to move heaven and earth — or at least the UN — to peddle the warming lie. I wonder why they want us to believe so desperately?

If only a third of the people are now convinced, that’s a victory for common sense. Two thirds of the adults never surrendered to the biggest brainwash in history. But almost half the political class claims to believe in the Big Global Warming Lie, according to Rasmussen. Of course the political class tells lies just for practice, so we don’t know what they really believe. Charles De Gaulle noted that politicians (like himself) tell so many lies that they soon lose track of what’s true. In our age journalists are pure political animals and have no idea what’s true or not. It’s not their department. They don’t have the intellectual equipment to figure it out. Journalism schools only accept kids who have flunked out of education classes. As long as it makes a headline they’re happy.
