[Epw.senate.gov] US Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works: In May, our nation was exposed to perhaps one of the slickest science propaganda films of all time: former Vice President Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth.” In addition to having the backing of Paramount Pictures to market this film, Gore had the full backing of the media, and leading the cheerleading charge was none other than the Associated Press.
[Huffingtonpost.com] The Blog | Bob Geiger: Inhofe: Global-Warming Scientists, Media ...: And even if Inhofe manages to smear the EPA's analysis, we can take a look at the scientific research the EPA cites in their Global Warming and Our Changing Climate FAQ. For that document, they use as their primary authority, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which, according to the EPA, "brings together the world's top scientists in all relevant fields, synthesizes peer-reviewed scientific literature on global warming studies, and produces authoritative assessments of the current state of knowledge of climate change."
[Cjrdaily.org] CJR Daily: Inhofe, Climate Change and Those Alarmist Reporters: Evaluating Inhofe's speech, Easterbrook said, "For Inhofe, this is a triumph of thoughtfulness." He added, however, that the senator's speech fell short of a clear distinction between bad reporting and bad science. Inhofe criticized recent reports by Time, CBS's 60 Minutes, the Associated Press, the Los Angeles Times, and other "eco-doomsayers." But if he had any valid points to make, they were lost in a maelstrom of mixed arguments.
[Gristmill.grist.org] Inhofe's speech and right-wing global warming myths | Gristmill ...: In an interview with the newspaper Tulsa World on July 22 of this year (no longer available on-line) Inhofe conceded that "the other side" is winning the debate. "The other side" includes the likes of Scientific American, who declared this month that "the debate on global warming is over" (http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?articleID=000EABE4-BDFF-...).
[CRIMES AND CORRUPTIONS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER NEWS] NUREMBERG-STYLE TRIALS PROPOSED FOR GLOBAL... : Despite denials from Gore's camp, rumors of a 2008 presidential run are rampant. Grist met with Gore during his recent stay in Seattle and found him hale, jovial, and relaxed -- a man invigorated.
[TheChurchMilitant] Behold the humor of a Heat Nazi.: Some retromingent Genius of Pseudo-Science who goes by the nom de fraude of David Roberts (see artist's sketch at left) gets a tiny woody because somebody noticed him when he jokingly advocated the execution of people who disagree with him. We now join Dave's favorite masturbatory fantasy at the point where he is...
[The Conspiracy to Keep You Poor and Stupid] INHOFE VERSUS THE NEW YORK TIMES: A significant portion of my 50 minute Senate floor speech on September 25th was devoted to the New York Times history of swinging between promoting fears of a coming ice age to promoting fears of global warming....Now, fast forward to August 19, 2000, the New York Times was so eager to promote fears of the Arctic melting that it cheapened itself with a comical article declaring 'The North Pole is Melting.' The Times reporter, John Noble Wilford, noted that tourists visiting the North Pole saw open water and declared that 'The last time scientists can be certain the pole was awash in water, was more than 50 million years ago.' Wow.
[DICTUM] Trials For Non-Believers: A U.S. based environmental magazine that both former Vice President Al Gore (http://gristmill.grist.org/print/2006/9/19/11408/1106?show_comments=no ) and PBS newsman Bill Moyers, for his October 11th global warming edition of “Moyers on America” titled “Is God Green?” (http://www.grist.org/news/maindish/2006/05/09/roberts/index.html ) have deemed respectable enough to grant one-on-one interviews to promote their projects, is now advocating Nuremberg-style war crimes trials for skeptics of human caused catastrophic global warming. Grist Magazine’s staff writer David Roberts called for the Nuremberg-style trials for the “bastards” who were members of what he termed the global warming “denial industry.” Roberts wrote in the online publication on September 19, 2006, "When we've finally gotten serious about global warming, when the impacts are really hitting us and we're in a full worldwide scramble to minimize the damage, we should have war crimes trials for these bastards -- some sort of climate Nuremberg.” (http://gristmill.grist.org/print/2006/9/19/11408/1106?show_comments=no )Gore and Moyers have not yet commented on Grist's advocacy of prosecuting skeptics of global warming with a Nuremberg-style war crimes trial.
