Interesting links, thanks. But when have facts (or lack thereof) ever gotten in the way of a good Media scare? Remember the 'crack babies' of the early '80s? No one ever bothered to peer review the 'facts'... or to separate out multiple drug use issues (meth., alcohol, tobacco, inhalants, etc.), poor fetal nutrition, economic factors, etc.

The only reason to bring in the obvious de-bunking of the global warming fraud is to keep it around until the media reforms enough to let everybody know. But the liberals here know it's BS every bit as much as the rest of us do. As they say in Hollywood: "It AIN'T global warming-its THE IDEA of global warming." Fraud depends on common concepts. The job of the left is to force rejected concepts to become "common" through propaganda. They are sold out to the old Nazi idea: "When you've got them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow..." They fight the de-bunking of global warming like they are fighting the busting up of the Social Security fraud: With character assassination and lies. Tell the lie often enough, accuse those telling the truth of selling out to the mythical enemy you invented (Big Oil, Big Tobacco, etc.), and gradually the masses that don't WANT to think will begin to believe...
