An Historical Take on Global Warming

"It's not a lie, I tell you!"

Al Gore recently broke his silence on “ClimateGate” (seriously media – do we really have to suffix every scandal with “-gate”?) Here’s what Mr. Gore-leone said about the hacked e-mails:

What we’re seeing is a set of changes worldwide that just make this discussion over 10-year-old e-mails kind of silly. The entire North Polar ice cap is disappearing before our very eyes. It’s been the size of the continental United States for the last 3 million years and now 40 percent is gone and the rest of it is going. The mountain glaciers are going. We’ve had record storms, droughts, fires, and floods. There is an air of unreality in debating these arcane points when the world is changing in such dramatic ways right in front of our eyes because of global warming.

Nice spin, Big Al. Now here’s a little bit of an historical take on the “truth” of global warming:

Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it. — Adolf Hitler

Apparently Hitler was right. This “inconvenient truth” of global warming has been told for so long and so loud, that everyone is buying into the lie instead of doing their own research.
