Anthropological Global Warming takes some more Body Blows

To say that it has not been a good year for the Man-made Global Warming religionists is an understatement. Today's fine compilation from Gateway Pundit includes:

UN Admits climate will be cooler this year (but don't worry we are still "warming"...)
BBC Admits global temperatures have not risen since 1988 (but CO2 has...)
The latest psychological malady hits Canada: Armed Clashes due to "Snow Rage"
Ted Turner has obviously killed WAY too many brain cells with all that drinking
And last but not least, allegations of fraud are plaguing a Global Warmist "Researcher" at the University of Albany--looks like he cooked the books for (what else) more GW grant money

To these I will add some items I have linked before, but which are critical to a "wholistic" understanding of the issue. But just as those on the Left accuse Religious Americans of being closed minded to the fact of evolution, so it is true that those infected with the Religion of Global Warmism refuse to even consider other points of view. But for those in that group reading this-- who are not themselves intellectual cowards--I would once again offer the following:

A British Television special revealing the hypocrisy (must-viewing for anyone who has the illusion that CO2 "causes" warming).
Swedish environmentalist Bjorn Lomborg on our skewed priorities--and what it is costing us and the developing world
Michael Crichton: Aliens Cause Global Warming
And...a new Michael Crichton link, a video of his speech to the Smithsonian entitled Fear and Complexity and Environmental Management in the 21st Century. This is a great speech in which Crichton discusses the scientific (and non-scientific) developments that caused him to write his controversial "State of Fear". Outstanding, if you have not seen it.

If you watch and read all of the above and still are a believer in man-made Global Warming, I have a bridge I would like to sell you...
