Czech President Vaclav Klaus Calls Global Warming Alarmism an "Ideology" Which Has Supplanted Communism in its Totalitarian Ambitions

And of course he wants to debate Al Gore, and of course the Double-wide Carbon Footprint refuses.

Klaus was speaking a the National Press Building in Washington to present his new book, Blue Planet in Green Shackles - What Is Endangered: Climate or Freedom?, before meeting with Vice President Dick Cheney Wednesday.
'My answer is it is our freedom and, I might add, and our prosperity,' he said.
...
Klaus, an economist, said he opposed the 'climate alarmism' perpetuated by environmentalism trying to impose their ideals, comparing it to the decades of communist rule he experienced growing up in Soviet-dominated Czechoslovakia.
'Like their (communist) predecessors, they will be certain that they have the right to sacrifice man and his freedom to make their idea reality,' he said.
'In the past, it was in the name of the Marxists or of the proletariat - this time, in the name of the planet,' he added.
...
'It could be even true that we are now at a stage where mere facts, reason and truths are powerless in the face of the global warming propaganda,' he said.
Klaus alleged that the global warming was being championed by scientists and other environmentalists whose careers and funding requires selling the public on global warming.
'It is in the hands of climatologists and other related scientists who are highly motivated to look in one direction only,' Klaus said.

Anyone see Nina Easton on Hume's show tonight saying that Klaus's view was "alarmist"?

She proceded to muck things up by conflating environmental protection steps taken to improve air and water quality with the the totalitarian "solutions" proposed by the Greens to an utterly speculative "problem", namely Global Warming.

Krauthammer didn't just slice and dice her clueless argument, he reduced it to gray goo.

"There are but two ways of forming an opinion in science, one is the scientific method; the other, the scholastic. One can judge from experiment, or one can blindly accept authority. To the scientific mind, experimental proof is all-important, and theory is merely a convenience in description, to be junked when it now longer fits. To the academic mind, authority is everything, and facts are to be junked when they do not fit theory laid down by authority."

-Robert A. Heinlein

Ace..

I caught this little nugget at The Post's "Page Six". It was in a story about a Hampton's Memorial Day party. (No wonder you weren't posting):

Meanwhile, Leonardo DiCaprio drank Jay-Z's Ace of Spades champagne and was surrounded by models at the opening of Dune in Southampton, while DJ Reach spun for the crowd.

Val-U-Rite Vodka my ass. Have a little laugh about us "morons" with your high-faluttin' friends, did ya?

13 For the most part, the modern environmental crusade was started right around the time of the fall of the Soviet Union. With capitalism being the common enemy, it is the perfect marriage made by Gaia.

There is a technical term for that Tom, "summer".

15 How many places around the country had winter storm warnings this MEMORIAL DAY? Quite a few, as I understand it.

And how many of these computer climate models predicted the now 10-year cooling trend?

Seems like the science ain't that settled, even if the scientists are.

I added an "L". Reads better that way. Coercing one's vision of utopia on others, and all that.

26 Gaia "environmentalism" and gerbil-worming hysteria first came up in the 1980s when we got out of that tiny little ice age of the 1970s. But in the 1980s the Left - including Carl Sagan, sadly - was more interested in Nuclear Winter. So we didn't hear much about the heating effects of the atmosphere outside the pages of Discover magazine until the Berlin Wall came down. Even then the bigger fuss was over the Ozone Hole and a few well-done penguins. (Remember chloro fluoro carbons?)

But you can always tell the real environmentalists from the Leftists. Real environmentalists rail against air pollution and acid rain, which happens locally and has scientifically falsifiable effects. Leftists rail against global environmental effects, declare an unusually cold winter as proof of global warming climate change, and invoke the UN.
