Can global warming cut your head off? Well can it? I know, that's a silly question but welcome to the wacky world of crazy statements that make up the arena of the global warming scaremongers. Currently, the mayor of crazy town is al Gore. al Gore has always been in search of a wedge issue to divide the american people and push additional power to the government. In today's world, the global warming agenda has become an interesting tool for advancing socialism. First, if I can get through the underlying premise of global warming without falling out of my chair, here is what the uneducated person is supposed to take away from the global warming sales pitch.
If you visit al Gore's movie promo website for his upcoming film an Inconvenient Truth they will hit you with these statements that verify my previous assertions. Here is a quote from the website:
"The vast majority of scientists agree that global warming is real, it's already happening and that it is the result of our activities and not a natural occurrence. The evidence is overwhelming and undeniable" (http://www.climatecrisis.net/thescience/).
What always follows in the guilt trip phase of the global warming sales pitch is the lengthy list of terrible catastrophes that will befall the planet, "remember this is all because of you", in the near future without radical changes in the way people live their lives. according to al Gore and company, the list of impending doom brought forth by global warming includes but is not limited to future deaths from global warming to reach 300,000 yearly in 25 years and the absence of a single ice cube in the arctic Ocean by the year 2050 (http://www.climatecrisis.net/thescience/). In fact, if you hunt hard enough in the global warming literature, you can see global warming as the suspected culprit for most of the problems in the world.
My complaint with the global warming community goes beyond the fact that most global warming proponents embrace Gore's website wording that global warming is a genuinely agreed upon fact when in reality it is highly debated. The global warming school of scare tactics was born out of the failed school of global cooling that was just as vehemently preached in the 1970s. Just as sure as the global coolies were that the world was doomed to an inevitable freeze-over, the global warmest of today fails to ponder alternative theories such as the cyclic nature of weather patters and so forth. I have to admit that this is frustrating to me; however, as a compassionate conservative I restrain my wrath for extremists like Gore when his warped sense of reality starts to undermine the national security of the country. That is, when the man who almost became president of the United States says that global warming is more dangerous to the country than international terrorism, I have to stand up and say, "Wait a minute!"
I would simply forward the following questions to all those who think that Gore is still hitting on all his cylinders after he and others promote global warming over terrorism as our top threat today. Since September 11, 2001, have we had 5,042 attacks of global warming? We have from terrorism (thereligionofpeace.com). Has global warming sent any videotapes lately that speak of our ultimate destruction as a country? I am still checking the records for an official fatwa sent by global warming on the U.S. There must be one for brain children such as al Gore to assert to the public that they should, after weighing both issues, decide that terrorism be placed on the back burner to global warming. al Gore must be privy to some special information that is restricted from the public? I mean, this is the only conceivable answer that would allow a man who was vice-president of the United States and in the inner loop for terrorist information to perceive that the global Islamic mandate by Osama bin Laden for all Muslims to kill every american they have contact with is less pressing than issues such as the rain forest. Surely a grand Gorian movement to focus the masses on global warming would also work hand in hand with that little secondary threat of terrorism? Right? I can only assume that our future hybrid cars will give us at least some protection from a dirty bomb explosion. Possibly the newest series of windmill systems will be able to detect at least a small amount of terrorist communications? I know, this is as silly as Gore is crazy, but this is the common dialogue in crazy town where the most obvious things must be pushed directly in front of the face of the wacko environmentalists for reality to sink in. So I ask you, can global warming cut your head off? Maybe make a video of the event to send to your family? It's time to separate the silly from the dangerous on this issue.
I am dubious of the viability of global warming in general due to a lack of substantial hard scientific evidence for its existence. I oppose the underlying socialistic agenda that is forwarded under the guise of global warming. I charge those, such as al Gore, who would shift our focus from the defense of the nation in time of war as being dangerously misguided. The Gore philosophy of de-emphasizing the threat of terrorism helps the terrorist cause. I challenge anyone to make a cogent argument that 10 years of unbridled terrorism will have less impact on the U.S. than 10 years of americans driving SUV's by herds of flocculent cattle on their way to charcoal burning barbeques. america cannot afford to be lulled into a false sense of security, or dragged onto false battlegrounds. The radical Islamic terrorists of today would, if allowed, lay waste to all america in a moment. So as al Gore seeks your signed pledge on his promo website to watch his movie, I would ask you to at least ask take a moment to remember the thousands of americans who have, and continue to die in this little secondary problem the country faces called the War on Terror. That is, if it's not too inconvenient?
