Please don't take this as a criticism of you or your
article, but there is a point I've been making for a long
time. The environmentalists have pulled off a slight-of-hand
trick that everyone has fallen for. By making everyone
believe the debate is about, "science," they've won the main
issue without debate. Your last sentence is an example:
"Do we really want to pass a control-and-tax bill; do we
really want to destroy our economy, based on the lie of
'unprecedented global warming'"?
The issue is not whether there is global warming or not. It
doesn't even matter. The issue is, nothing justifies
oppression, nothing justifies any government controlling
people's lives or businesses. Government has no business
doing anything but protecting individual liberty, and the
right of every individual to live their lives as they
choose. The moment the emphasis is off of that, it is a
tacit admission that some disaster, some pending
catastrophe, cancels truth, and justifies oppression. The
entire global warming debater has done exactly that, and the
liberals and leftists have won.
Now, I know anthropogenic global warming is bunk, and at
least for science's sake, needs to be exposed. But, in terms
of politics, it's the wrong debate, and no one is addressing
the correct one.
