Global Warming BS - A politician who gets it

In the world of international politics, it is rare to find someone who really speaks for a position with which I agree. On the issue of Global Warming, Czech President Vaclav Klaus is such a man. In the meeting in Davos with all the UN muckity-mucks, Klaus spoke his mind, saying:

  • I don't think that there is any global warming
  • I don't see the statistical data for that.
  • Environmentalism and the global warming alarmism is challenging our freedom.
  • Al Gore is an important person in this movement.
  • I'm afraid that the current crisis will be misused for radically constraining the functioning of the markets and market economy all around the world

You have to love this guy, and he is exactly right. The socialist element of the global warming hype must not be underestimated. If they get their way, companies will have to buy, through the cap and trade system, the 'right' to produce Carbon Dioxide. You know, the gas your create every time you exhale. This cap and trade will give the enviro-nazis just what they need to throttle and control the economy.

Let's not let it happen.
