My response to Murdoch's Times' article re the judge's ruling on climate change
Here's a link to the story:

http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/law/corporate_law/article2633838.ece?Submitted=true

I read the story and the comments and decided that I would not be a good world neighbor if I didn't warn Brits about this type of garbage. Here's what I wrote for the comment column:

Welcome to the USA's nightmare. The scientific community agrees on something very basic and important. Then right wingers decide that those facts don't work with their agenda, so they make an idiotic claim to the contrary and create a "debate" where there is none--at least not among sane, intelligent people.

Then print such absurdities in a Ruppert Murdoch owned media outlet and abra-cad-abra you'll end up with a George Bush of your own!

Think I'm kidding? Take a close look at American politics. About 1/3 of Americans believe that Saddam was responsible for 911. This is not because Americans are inherently stupid, it is because of orchestrated PR (public relations)being pelted upon us, and it looks a lot like this story.

For the love of all that is good, please do your own research and learn from the deadly mess that the US is presently in. Al Gore and the scientific community are correct on climate change.

"How could 59459765 Americans be so stupid?" You may soon find out.



My comment is not showing yet, I wonder if it will get past the censors. :shrug:

I challenge you to be a good neighbor too.

1. Can I get an amen?
I am very concerned that the tentacles of the neocons are reaching deeply into the politics of other nations.
