The Way Things Break

All that needs to be said about Inhofe’s “650 scientists refute man-made global warming!”

December 11, 2008 · 4 Comments

U.S. Senator and unabashed declarer that anthropogenic climate change is “the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people” Jim Inhofe has released an update of his widely discredited (e.g. here, here, here, etc.) list of “400 prominent scientists” who “objected” to the mainstream scientific consensus on anthropogenic warming and climate change, which purports to bring the number to 650.

In 2006, the Discovery Institute also claimed to have a list of 600+ “scientists” who objected to evolution. To Marc Morano, Jim Inhofe, et al.: try harder than the creationists if you’re going to bother to keep this up. At least make it worth our time…

    Many too many economic powerbrokers have been playing “the only game in town” the way everyone “in the know” has been participating in the construction of a global, leviathan-like “house of cards” called the global political economy.

    QUESTION: Can we share an understanding of the many attacks on Earth and climate scientists by saying loudly and clearly that their assailants’ activities are venal efforts to spread garbage and junk science, based upon nothing more or less than the duplicitous promulgation of ideological idiocy?

    ANSWER: The many arrogant and hostile efforts toward Earth and climate scientists are for the sole purpose of shoring-up and building trust in a con game; to support the most colossal pyramid scheme in human history…..a modern version of the ancient Tower of Babel. Only this modern ‘edifice’ is an Economic Colossus, one not made of stone but rather built out of filthy lucre as a house of playing cards. The entire game is a patently unsustainable, gigantic ruse perpetrated by a tiny, greedy minority of outrageously conspicuous consumers who are recklessly consolidating and relentlessly hoarding great wealth and power.
