Once again Robot Theater helps us to understand how liberals can buy into the silly idea of anthropogenic global warming.

It’s easy to see why the number of people who buy this bunk is falling–down to somewhere around 30% of Americans now. Of course, it’ll probably never get down to zero; some people simply lack the intelligence to employ analytical skills, especially when emotionalism is so much easier than dealing with facts.

Good news! What is perhaps the biggest hoax ever perpetrated on humanity is now sliding toward the ash heap of history: the hypothesis of anthropogenic global warming.

The hypothesis never got much support beyond “fudged” computer models and a lot of conjecture and hysteria, but Al Gore and his fellow apostles of environmental doom wanted everyone to believe that all scientists believed it, and you should, too. Even the so-called “consensus” claim was a hoax; tens of thousands of scientists never bought it. Socialists like Al Gore simply wanted to appeal to people’s “herd instinct” and motivate them to move in the direction they perceived the herd was going.

People were already realizing in greater numbers that anthropogenic global warming claims were nothing but hot air, but when it was revealed that the Climate Research Unit in England, one of about four sources for all the “information” supporting the hypothesis of AGW, was playing fast and loose with the data, ClimateGate accelerated the demise of this already-thin theory.

By now virtually everyone on earth is aware of the hysteria being fostered by socialists over global warming.

Al Gore and his disciples claim that any planetary warming that is occurring must be caused by human beings. After all, the West and America have been dominant for the last century or more, and that is when temperatures seem to have begun to rise (recently in history, that is), so it must be the evil capitalists and their SUVs and industry causing it.

But does that contention stand up to actual science and history? Not even close. The only “science” that supports this silly theory consists of a lot of conjecture and some “fudged” computer models like the one left naked from the Climate Research Unit in the recent ClimateGate scandal.

History is also not a friend to the anthropogenic global warming religion. At many times during human history, our planet has been much warmer…and much cooler. For instance, around the year 1,000 AD, the Vikings colonized Greenland and had a thriving civilization there…only to be forced to abandon it as the climate cooled dramatically a few hundred years later. There was also a “Little Ice Age” in the 1600’s and 1700’s where things were much cooler in Europe and America than they were a few decades before…and since.

You knew our public school children were being indoctrinated in anti-capitalist dogma being passed off as “science,” right?

Well, in case you didn’t, they are. Â For years public schools around the world have been showing Al Gore’s propaganda film “An Inconvenient Truth” and exposing impressionable children with other misleading information in order to fool them into believing evil capitalists, along with their SUVs and energy sources, are destroying our fragile planet.

South Dakota Representative Don Kopp of District 35 is ready to do something about that. Â The Rapid City Journal reports he has pre-filed legislation for the upcoming legislative session which would require both sides of the debate to be presented in the classroom.

As we take one final look back on the almost defunct year of 2009, these are the top 50 articles at Dakota Voice during the year, based on the number of hits they received.

Some of these were immensely popular, garnering thousands of fresh hits, even months after they were published. Readership of Dakota Voice continued to grow this year, as well as increasing throughout the year, so many of the latest articles also became some of the most read articles as more people became aware of this voice of liberty from South Dakota.

The Dakota Voice team also expanded with several syndicated and exclusive authors, bringing fresh perspectives and new insights.

Who knows: maybe you missed one or more of these articles the first time around. Some of them contain important information you may want to take with you into 201o. An informed person is an armed person, and an armed person is a difficult person from whom to steal freedom.

According to the Pew poll, the number of people who believe there is solid evidence of global warming (of any kind, natural or man-made) is down from 71% a year and a half ago to 57% this month. That is a huge drop, especially considering the “mainstream” media and the socialists in our government haven’t slowed down in the slightest in their propaganda campaign.

According to the same poll, the percentage of Americans who believe any global warming is anthropogenic (man-made) has dropped from 47% to 36%. Bad news for Al Gore.

The poll shows believe in this fantasy dropping even among Democrats, who are the most likely to believe this nonsense.

This has been a continuing trend for some time. The more people learn about this silly theory that doesn’t even pass the smell-test of credibility, the less they believe it.

Have you ever had so much time on your hands that you needed something to waste it on? Fighting a problem that doesn’t exist is a good way to waste your time.

That’s what a significant (but diminishing) number of people are doing by trying to combat anthropogenic (man-made) global warming. It’s a problem that just doesn’t exist.

Oh, I know High Priest Al Gore the Magnificent has been telling us for years that earth is in the lurch, and if we don’t so something with 10 years, we’re doomed. Actually, I think it was more like 15-20 years ago that he and other environmental fanatics told us this, so that means it’s already too late and we can all just sit back and enjoy the ride, even if they’re right, right? (Of course, this followed the predictions in the 1970s of a coming ice age…but “scientists” are never wrong, so don’t bring that up, either)

Well, that’s yet another little “inconvenient truth” they’d like us to forget about. Just as Gore, the political animals at the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and other earth-worshippers would like us to forget about common sense and throw that out, too.

A commenter on my piece about the new documentary “Not Evil, Just Wrong” provided a link to a video clip about the natural, cyclic and historical nature of climate change on our planet.

I’ve seen and heard much of this information before from various sources, but it’s fairly safe to say a number of people may not have. Given the astonishing amount of ignorance thrown around in pop culture about anthropogenic global warming, remarkably absence is any realization that temperatures have been going up and down drastically on earth for hundreds and even thousands of years.

Apostles of anthropogenic global warming (AGW) would have us believe that the planetary warming we’ve seen in the last 15-20 years (which has leveled off in the last few years, incidentally) is “undoubtedly” caused by human activity. How do they know this? Well, humans invented industry and internal combustion engines within the last 100 years, and it’s gotten warmer in the last 100 years. This is the obvious conclusion, right?

Christopher Monckton says in the July 2009 issue of SPPI Monthly CO2 Report that it simply cannot be credibly argued that anthropogenic global warming is some kind of catastrophe warranting the sacrifice of our freedom and prosperity.

No longer can it be credibly argued that “global warming” is worse than previously thought. No longer can it be argued that “global warming” was, is, or will be any sort of global crisis. Recent papers in the peer-reviewed literature, combined with streams of data from satellites and thermometers, now provide a complete picture of why it is that the UN’s climate panel, the worldwide political class, and other “global warming” profiteers are wrong in their assumption that the enterprises of humankind will disastrously warm the Earth.

The global surface temperature record, which we update and publish every month, has shown no statistically-significant “global warming” for almost 15 years. Statistically-significant global cooling has now persisted for very nearly eight years. Even a strong el Nino – expected in the coming months – will be unlikely to reverse the cooling trend.

More significantly, the ARGO bathythermographs deployed throughout the world’s oceans since 2003 show that the top 400 fathoms of the oceans, where it is agreed between all parties that at least 80% of all heat caused by manmade “global warming” must accumulate, have been cooling over the past six years. That now prolonged ocean cooling is fatal to the “official” theory that “global warming” will happen on anything other than a minute scale.

In a few weeks you will have an opportunity to see an important film called “Not Evil Just Wrong.”

It’s a film about the anthropogenic global warming scam, and you can see a trailer for it below.

I’ve been hearing about this film for a year or more now. I have to admit, while I’ve know for years that the theory of anthropogenic global warming is a pure load of baloney, the title of the film has never set quite right with me.

I think I know the reason the filmmakers chose that title, but my internal accuracy module just has a problem with it that, while I can hit the reset button in my head and appreciate the truth this brings to the public square about this issue, I can’t seem to completely ignore.
