Progressive Fascists

A Fellow SLOBs author has been on a tear. Her blog is part of our group, and she writes at College Insurrection. She brings us an interesting video. "Why America’s Military Must Be Strong" describes how America has battled four fascist threats to freedom in the last hundred years. It includes the particularly interesting frame above regarding Islamo-fascism.

Watch the video for the details, but this frame captures much more than Islamic Supremacism. It explains why Americans do not trust progressives. Barack Obama and his supporting progressive network are precisely described in this frame.

Hatred of Democracy - Opposing voter ID laws, Scytl suppression of military votes, IRS suppression of conservative votes, lying about Benghazi to win the election, out right voter fraud - Chicago Style, and the latest ...the NSA data collection scandal coincidentally coinciding with Organizing or America's Biggest database in the world on American voters.

Hatred of Christianity - IRS targeting of conservative churches, anti-freedom of religion healthcare mandates for abortion, forcing the Boy Scouts of America into accepting homosexuals, and the general Bill Maher "invisible friend" anti-religious rantings of progressives in general. One might say, collective salvation and a corrupted social justice were used by racists like Margaret Sanger to use christian churches to promote black abortions.

Fanatical Anti-Americanism - Unending attempts to destroy our Constitutionally protected civil rights are everywhere in the news. We cannot list them all! Without the Constitution...THERE IS NO AMERICA.

Antisemitism - While many Jewish Americans finance and vote for progressives, the progressive movement is wholeheartedly anti-Israel. It is mind boggling. In Benghazi, heavy weapons were given to Islamic terrorists who shot down Israeli jets (at least one) with Obama provided MANPADS. Obama just appointed an Ambassador to the UN who wants to provide troops to "protect Palestinians" from Israel.

Desire for Utter Uniformity - Everything from Political Correctness to the Alinsky book "Rules for Radicals," on how to silence opponents, is aimed squarely at intimidating and shutting down any opposition. Consider Global Warming and how fraudulently they have presented their progressive demands.

Even the amazing artwork and slogans of President Obama are callbacks to fascism's cousin communism. Let's end with another graphic brought to us by the aforementioned blogger.

P.S.

We didn't use our fellow blogger's name due to the title of this post. It would be very uncool to associate her name with progressive fascism, Barack Obama, on the other hand, well... too damn bad.

University of California Berkeley Lies About Global Warming - Truthiness

A well written piece in the Daily Mail outlines how the University of California's Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature (BEST) project lied about the Global Warming:

Professor Richard Muller, of Berkeley University in California, and his colleagues from the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperatures project team (BEST) claimed to have shown that the planet has warmed by almost a degree  centigrade since 1950 and is warming continually.
Published last week ahead of a major United Nations climate summit in Durban, South Africa, next month, their work was cited around the world as irrefutable evidence that only the most stringent measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions can save civilisation as we know it.

It was cited uncritically by, among others, reporters and commentators from the BBC, The Independent, The Guardian, The Economist and numerous media outlets in America. The Washington Post said the BEST study had ‘settled the climate change debate’ and showed that anyone who remained a sceptic was committing a ‘cynical fraud’.

But today The Mail on Sunday can reveal that a leading member of Prof Muller’s team has accused him of  trying to mislead the public by hiding the fact that BEST’s research shows global warming has stopped.

Prof Judith Curry, who chairs the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at America’s prestigious Georgia Institute of Technology, said that Prof Muller’s claim that he has proven global warming sceptics wrong was also a ‘huge mistake’, with no  scientific basis.

Prof Curry is a distinguished climate researcher with more than 30 years experience and the second named co-author of the BEST project’s four research papers.

But a report to be published today by the Global Warming Policy Foundation includes a graph of world average temperatures over the past ten years, drawn from the BEST project’s data and revealed on its website.

This graph shows that the trend of the last decade is absolutely flat, with no increase at all – though the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have carried on rising relentlessly.

‘This is nowhere near what the  climate models were predicting,’ Prof Curry said. ‘Whatever it is that’s going on here, it doesn’t look like it’s being dominated by CO2.’

Prof Muller also wrote an article for the Wall Street Journal. It was here, under the headline ‘The case against global warming scepticism’, that he proclaimed ‘there were good reasons for doubt until now’.

Media storm: Prof Muller's claims received uncritical coverage in the media this week This, too, went around the world, with The Economist, among many others, stating there was now ‘little room for doubt’.

Such claims left Prof Curry horrified.

‘Of course this isn’t the end of scepticism,’ she said. ‘To say that is the biggest mistake he [Prof Muller] has made. When I saw he was saying that I just thought, “Oh my God”.’

In fact, she added, in the wake of the unexpected global warming standstill, many climate scientists who had previously rejected sceptics’ arguments were now taking them much more seriously.

They were finally addressing questions such as the influence of clouds, natural temperature cycles and solar radiation – as they should have done, she said, a long time ago

In Other Truthiness News

In what will be seen as a massive embarrassment to the left, Chris Mooney wrote about his new book The Republican Brain on the Huffington Post in an article titled:  The Science of Truthiness: Why Conservatives Deny Global Warming. It is clear who is denying the science, Chris.

San Diego: Lord Monckton Battles Global Warming Mad Men

Photo by Anthony Porrello

Lord Christopher Monckton gave a real Reason Rally at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace & Justice Theater at the University of San Diego. The crowd rose to their feet on several occasions as Lord Monckton presented the truth about global warming "science" and the consequences to human freedom. The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley mixed good humor and good information for an terrific presentation.

Some of the key points of the presentation

The primary formula used to calculate "feedback" warming from CO2 is clearly wrong. Observational data was presented that clearly shows global climate is cooler now than it was in the Medieval warm period and within the natural climate variation of the last several thousand years. The "feedback" formula was shown to be a factor of 4.4 times the actual observed and measured value. Further, the actual "feedback" works to stabilize temperatures, not exacerbate them.

The computer models used by the IPCC are based upon a decline in escaping heat with increased CO2. The observed data, in green at the center, shows the opposite result.

Lord Monckton walked through the four IPCC climate reports and showed the evolution of lies and "tricks" used to create and maintain the Global Warming Scam. The take away from this portion of the presentation is the discredited "Hockey Stick."  To create the hockey stick, numbers were not just manipulated and "tricked," they were generated. You can read an entire book on this subject called The Hockey Stick Illusion.

Another key presentation point was on the validity of "Consensus." Science is not consensus and consensus is not science.The notion that "2,500 scientists can't be wrong," is just a fallacy. The climate models and data actually all boils down to one scientist who used the formula for electrical feedback (aka microphones) as the basis for the modeling of CO2 "feedback." There is no scientific consensus on how much the world has warmed or will warm.

If you want all the nitty gritty details on the global warming scam, here is a list of some of my previous posts:

• Global Warming Hoax Update: Little Ice Age Censored from Books
• An Astronomical Theory of Climate Change
• Milankovitch Cycles
• Heroes of the Republic at the AFA/UCLA Big Footprint Conference (featuring Lord Monckton)
• Harold Lewis Emeritus Professor of Physics Resigns over Climate Change Fraud
• Solar Irradiance Causes Climate Change

The Point to the Conference

The point to the conference was the peril California faces this summer. In August 2012, California holds the first cap and trade / carbon tax credits auction. It is expected to raise one billion dollars for the state. At that point, this will become a revenue source with big bank and political ties that will never be undone. CO2 becomes a  commodity to be traded and taxed. It will mark the largest transfer of wealth from private citizens to big banks and big government in American history. Europe is already wasting hundreds of billions on this useless scam. The impact on the economy is apparent. The impact on the environment is not.

The best case scenario is that California will raise 400+ billion dollars in taxes to reduce global warming by .001 degree Celsius over 100 years. In reality, the scheme will enrich the regulators and break the public. It will do nothing of worth.

In Britain a similar scheme was passed with absolutely no measurable benefits. No study to gauge the benefits of taxing the public for "carbon pollution" was done prior to the law being passed. Estimates of revenue generated were completed.

In Europe 5/6 of government decisions are made by regional regulators who are not elected nor held accountable. America, through cap-and-trade and agenda 21, is facing the same fate. America is bowing to the same global governance scheme. We Americans will have all the trappings of democracy without the messy democratic process.

The Conference

This important and hugely successful event was organized by Americans Protecting Property Rights and CfactSoCal.org. The hall was overflowing and video conference rooms were required for the additional attendees. Lord Monckton was friendly and open to questions before and after the event. The excellent efforts of the volunteer organizers are greatly appreciated. It is good to see such forward thinking and competence in organization from fellow tea party volunteers. The familiar faces and welcoming attitudes are a hallmark of the movement. For examples of attitudes from the left, look no further than ThinkProgress.org's coverage of Lord Monckton. You can also follow Lord Monckton's exploits as a contributor at Whats Up With That. Americans Protecting Property Rights is also found on facebook.

Conclusion

From the beginning of the Global Warming Hoax, I have been trying to expose the utter ignorance of the entire argument. It appears the end game has arrived. While we have successfully debunked the science, politicians are woefully ignorant of the facts. There are also progressive forces who are actively trying to destroy our economic and political freedoms to undermine our constitutional rights in order to accumulate power and control. 

California Assemblyman (77th) Brian Jones commented that many lawmakers who passed The California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB32) did not know what it was. It turned out to be the United Nations 1997 Kyoto Accord. AB32 is the entry point for global governance.

The members of the California Air Resources Board (CARB) are appointed and operate outside any legislative oversight. CARB will be implementing Cap and Trade.

If you ask why these people would harm you and your family, the answer lies in these anti-American comments:

• "All of these dangers are caused by human intervention... the real enemy then, is humanity" Alexander King 
• "...current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class--involving high meat intake, use of fossil fuels, appliances, home and work air conditioning, and suburban housing --are not sustainable" Maurice Strong, Secretary General, UN Conference on Environment & Development, 1992 (Rio Earth Summit)

This is the last call for freedom. As Lord Monckton emphatically proclaims,

"I was born in a democracy. I will die in a democracy."

 America is an idea, based in freedom. So I proclaim that our ally Lord Monckton is a great American. We need more great Americans to stand at our side.
