The Elder beats down Brian Lambert:
For all the talk of “crushing of dissent,” “questioning of patriotism,” “building a theocracy,” “trashing the Constitution,” and “creating a climate of fear” in George Bush’s Amerika, it’s notable that at the end of the day, the only actual efforts to limit debate and free expression are coming from the Left. Imagine that.
Read the whole thing. And respond by burning everything Brian Lambert has ever written, just to show him the real effect of what he’s proposing.
Just kidding about that last bit.
The Elder rightly points out this interesting quote from the Lambert piece:
“At what point does an issue acquire both sufficient moral imperative and scientific foundation to make responsible journalists start rejecting counterfeit logic?”
Which, if nothing else, displays Lambert’s historical naivete’.
Here is what kills me most about the chicken-little prophets of global warming: Each time they confront an individual who raises healthy objections to the science offered, they throw out the “holocaust denier” label, as Lambert has done here. Yet, even if you belive that man is causing warming to the earth that may raise the ocean levels by one foot over the next hundred years, and that any debate to the contrary should be stifled … even if you believe that maybe those numbers won’t be reached, but that man is causing a substantial rise in the ocean levels, and that any debate to the contrary should be stifled… even if you belive that people who drive SUV’s with only two passengers, disregarding any needs they may have for said SUV during the times you don’t pass them, half empty, on the crosstown at 4 p.m. on a Friday before you head out for your sushi-and-cosmo-oh-aren’t-we-cool-dinner-party-even-though-large-trucks-were-needed-to-bring-our-sushi-and-cosmo’s-to-market-HALLIBURTON!….BUSHITLER!!! party, even if you believe all that;
You cannot deny that the holocaust happened. It DID happen. What your guru’s of global warming warn of may or may not happen… but over six million jews, homosexuals, mentally handicapped, and dissenters WERE murdered during Hitler’s reign.
Might happen… DID happen… you people are pathetic!
Wow. Tough to follow that one.
