The 15 Theses
Filed Under Environment, Fascism, Global Warming, Mitt Romney | Leave a Comment
When Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenburg, he was challenging the authority of the prevailing religion of the day, the Catholic Church. In a way, his struggle mirrors our own today.
Instead of an infallible Pope, we have Al Gore unilaterally pronouncing the debate over. Instead of corrupt priests, we have climate scientists parroting the “Pope” in exchange for favors. I could go on.
Recognizing I am about 80 short, I hereby post my own 15 statements of rebellion against the new Universal Church of the Earth. I call this “My Disputation on the Power and Efficacy of Climate Legislation, including the Kyoto Protocol.”
I deny that Global Warming has any significant connection to human industrial activities.
I deny that we are destroying the planet.
I deny the claims that we are causing glaciers to melt, polar bears to drown, arctic ice to retreat, sea levels to rise, acne to increase, or any of the numberless things that have recently been attributed to Climate Change.
I deny the assertion that humans are parasites, a cancer, a plague, or any other fear-laden word abused by green activists.
I deny environmentalists any right to impose legislation that will adversely affect my way of life, or that will harm my family’s way of life.
I deny the false assertion that eco-activists have any concern for human welfare.
I deny the assumption that we must change our way of life to more closely match those of third-world countries in order to protect the environment.
I deny Barak Obama’s claim that leadership in the world means we should acquiesce to the demands of other countries regarding how much we can eat, what we can drive, or how we should live.
I deny that our American way of life is a threat to other nations.
I deny that the Kyoto Protocol will do anything about cooling the planet.
I deny the assertion that CO2 is a pollutant, and that it is harmful to the planet.
I deny that we can stop Global Warming, or Climate Change, or whatever other term the environmentalists wish to abuse this month.
I deny that the Left can come up with anything positive for human progress.
I deny that Leftists have any right to call America home while they work tirelessly to pull it apart and destroy it.
In conclusion, I am willing to concede that I can be called a denier. I’m in good company. Given that the temperature decrease of this year alone has offset the past 100 years of warming, and that the IPCC has predicted a cooling trend for at least the next 15 years, how can anyone who now continues to claim that human activities are to blame for climate change expect to be taken seriously? Some people will continue this “struggle” to save the planet in the face of mounting evidence that that our planet doesn’t need saving. They want one of two things: a cause or power. It’s not hard to see who wants which.
I am a denier, and as far as it is in my ability I will deny both of these things to those who have proven that they will only abuse them. I encourage you to do the same.

Unconstitutional Liberalism
Filed Under Constitution, Environment, Fascism, Global Warming, Government, Ideology, John McCain, Politics, Socialism | 1 Comment
You know, it’s a strange thing. The liberal voices who insist that we must change the way we do things always point to either Europe or Great Britain as models for how we should behave. The problem is that this is not a comparison of apples to apples.
Take gas consumption for example. The liberal fascists wants us to reduce our consumption of gas to match that of Europe. They think we should be paying the same prices for gas as they do in Europe, somewhere around 10 thousand dollars a gallon. Europeans actually have the lowest prices for gas on the planet; their sympathetic attitude toward radical jihadists qualifies them for the Al-Qaeda employee discount. Once they add in the taxes, well, you can see what happens.
The taxes are part of why Europeans don’t drive much. It’s also the reason they can eat really heavy, fat-filled foods and not have heart attacks. Seriously–my friends who have lived in Europe tell me that they don’t offer fat-free foods in their supermarkets. Why should they? Riding a bike everywhere burns off the calories pretty quick. Taxes are how the Europeans control behavior.
The liberals here in America think they are going to institute similar measures to control us. What they don’t understand is that Europeans have a long tradition of being second-class citizens. They lived for many years under the rule of kings, long after we threw our king out. Some gradually managed to put together new forms of government under Presidents or Prime Ministers, but they insisted that these new governments continue to act like kings. The Brits even kept their king around, just as a reminder.
The liberals want us to sign on to the Kyoto Protocol to reduce our carbon emissions, like Europe. Trouble is, high energy taxes were already forcing them to use less gas by rarely driving and were were forcing them to forgo air conditioning. Remember the heat wave France had a couple of years ago, where thousands of people died of heat exhaustion in their own homes because they couldn’t afford to pay for air conditioning? The Europeans were already using far less energy than we do as a whole, and they still can’t meet their Kyoto requirements. What on earth makes the crazy liberals think the results will be different here?
We probably can do better than we are–we could lose some weight, we could stop smoking, or ride a bike more often. But we don’t need government using tax policy to control our behavior (the FairTax would fix all that). In fact, our traditions say that government shouldn’t be dictating how we live our lives, as long as we aren’t hurting others. The Kyoto Protocol, if ratified, would become part of the law of the land equal to the Constitution–a Constitutional mandate for Government to control our behavior. Cheers to George W. Bush for rejecting it, and Jeers to John McCain for wanting to sign it.
The liberals want us to save the planet, drive less, lose weight, stop smoking, and live closely packed together in a few big cities, rather than a lot of little towns. They don’t want us to have guns. They want us to be only fashionably religious. They want us to be second-class citizens ruled by an elite monarchial government. Most of all, though, they want to be King.

Left Blames Religion for Global Warming
Filed Under Environment, Fascism, Global Warming, Government, Ideology, Politics, Religion, Socialism | Leave a Comment
Read the story at Section134.com. I can’t help but wonder how much longer the Left can refrain from outright murder in the name of the earth. I don’t think it will be long. The revolutionaries are getting restless.

Not Global Warming, Climate Change
Filed Under Environment, Fascism, Global Warming | Leave a Comment
MSNBC is carrying a story here that blames China’s coldest winter in 100 years on Climate Change. You’ll notice how the threat is shifting from Global Warming (which is becoming increasingly discredited with the release of new data) to the more generic “Climate Change.”
Of course the climate changes. It has always done so. The question now is, “What causes Climate Change.” The proponents of government intervention will insist that the change is anthropogenic (man-made). The eco-fascists need a crisis around which they can rally support, mobilize their forces, and ram their regulations through the respective legislative bodies. The goal is ultimately a one-world governing body connected to the United Nations.
They have yet to explain how greenhouse gas emissions cause both warming and cooling under the new climate change theory. But judging from past experience, that isn’t much of a challenge. There always seems to be someone willing to provide a new junk-scientific theory that ignores reality and ostensibly proves that Man is the cause of every evil in the world.
And support for the new theory won’t be difficult, either; they can get some people to believe anything.

NY Times Endorses McCain
Filed Under Elections, Environment, Fascism, Global Warming, Government, Health Care, Politics, Socialism | 2 Comments
The New York Times has officially endorsed John McCain as GOP candidate and Hillary Clinton for the Democrats.
My question was “Why McCain?”
Actually, it’s easy. If Hillary Clinton wins the election, the Times will have at least two years to enjoy a President as Fascistic as they are who will push every ridiculous socialist idea on the public that they can get through Congress.
If McCain wins, they will get four years to enjoy a President that will bend over backwards to accommodate the whims and wishes of all the Liberal Fascists in the Legislature as they work to push their ridiculous socialist ideas through Congress, with promises to sign all the socialized health care, amnesty and Global Warming-inspired tripe the Legislature can cook up.
In other words, the Times’ board will get everything they want in a President, regardless of who wins. It’s a no-brainer.

Courts Say Gore’s Film Contains Inaccuracies
Filed Under Education, Environment, Global Warming | Leave a Comment
Here’s a big story about Al Gore’s eco-hysteria piece, An Inconvenient Truth. Turns out the courts in the UK consider it to be less than truthful. The website for the British New Party illuminates 11 points made in the film which a representative for the film had to acknowledge were either completely false or inconclusive. Teachers in UK schools must now warn their students of these inaccuracies or they may be found guilty of “political indoctrination” under the Education Act of 1996. I’m thinking the effect will be that teachers simply won’t bother to show the film. It’s just too much hassle. ’bout time the tables were turned, says I.
Check out the story here.
So, why can’t we pass a law prohibiting political indoctrination in schools here in the US? The Brits are ahead of us on that count.
