Safety In Numbers- How To Lie With Impunity

There used to be a time when being discovered standing over a dead body with the murder weapon in your hand was considered damning evidence, but it seems that the liberal mindset has relegated the smoking gun to mythological status, the veritable Pegasus of admissible probability. It is child's play to deny any wrong doing simply by denouncing your discoverers as liars and declaring the notion of your capacity to kill as ludicrous.

There are people who truly believe that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney covertly planted an intricate network of bombs throughout 220 stories of the Twin Towers with no one knowing a thing about it, or that anyone who did know has remained silent all this time. They believe it just as surely as they know the sun will rise in the East, despite the overwhelming logistical impossibility of it. Yet, these same people cannot conceive of a scientific cabal hellbent on economic and social domination even though the evidence is both abundant and mounting.

It is simply ridiculous, they will say, to think that so many people could possibly be in collusion, and the incriminating emails recently revealed prove nothing. Bragging of "tricking" temperature data or imploring colleagues to destroy potentially damaging emails has been "taken out of context", we're told. Then they will - with straight faces - accuse the deniers of being part of an oil-funded conspiracy to destroy the planet. Does anyone see the sick irony here?

While liberals are given the benefit of the doubt by their counterparts in the media, conservatives are condemned on here say alone. Tom Delay was run out of town because someone accused him of gerrymandering in Texas, yet Charles Rangel rolls on unimpeded as Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee after it was revealed that he failed to pay taxes. (The committee he chairs writes the tax laws). Timothy Geithner is the Secretary of the U.S. Treasury even though it was disclosed that he failed to pay his income taxes.

These are not new revelations, I know, but they must be taken in context with the grand Global Warming scheme, for just the mention of a Lord Monckton draws snickers and derision from the left, who cast him as a charlatan. It is much easier to avoid a serious discussion when the opponent is classified as unworthy of consideration rather than given a chance to be heard. The left simply cannot risk lending any form of credence to such "blasphemy". (Al Gore has been running from Monckton for quite some time now). And so they agree en masse to stifle any damaging discoveries and sneeringly scoff at accusations. And the media willingly abets.

I pray that James Inhofe and any like-thinking associates hang onto this like tenacious pit bulls and force it out into the mainstream. We have just witnessed the CRU being thoroughly embarrassed and supported to the hilt by a press that too fervently believes the lies they've been told. What's worse is that they are now less curious about the truth and more eager to perpetuate the lie, which is precisely why they are on the same page in portraying this devastating disclosure as no big deal. If they reported accurately on the news, too many people who may not have had the AGW belief firmly ingrained in their psyches may begin to doubt.

That would be unacceptable to a crowd that not only clearly subscribes to the lessons of Goebbels, but has managed to out do him. Keep lying and never stop denying. And if we can get more than half of the people to lie, then it must be the truth. Sphere: Related Content

The Media Spin Cycle

We are once again being treated to the various approaches certain news outlets take to particular subjects. Fox News is complaining that the "mainstream" media is ignoring the bombshell caused by some hackers' release of Climate Research Institute emails. That is simply not true, as CNN has mentioned the story, but from a different perspective; they are doing what they can to downplay the significance of the event.

Despite their vehement denials of having a liberal agenda, left-leaning news outlets have habitually protected the liberal ideal whenever possible. Ignoring the abundant and overwhelming evidence of Obama's radical views and associations, the mainstream media sought to destroy the opposition ad nauseam. Even as the obvious stench of radicalism emanated from the Obama universe like a giant, gaseous cloud, it was of no concern to liberal media types. They were more interested in sending swarms of intrepid "journalists" to Wasilla, Alaska to go dumpster-diving for dirt on Sarah Palin.

Predictably, the furor over the release of environmentalists' emails is not about the damning nature of the emails but over how they were obtained. The leftist bloggers are righteously outraged over "this criminal act". The Huffington Post's Katherine Goldstein and Craig Kanalley write:
Despite the lack of evidence of some sort of conspiracy in the scientific community, this criminal activity has created fodder for right-wing groups and websites to promote their own agenda that global warming is not real. This comes at a time when international attention is more and more focused on the climate crisis in advance of the UN climate talks in Copenhagen in December.
It is funny then, how HuffPo was not so concerned about private emails during the 2008 presidential campaign, or at any time they could damage Sarah Palin. In a November 14th article titled McCain Campaign Emails Contradict Palin's "Going Rogue", Sam Stein shamelessly writes:
Sarah Palin's much-discussed book, "Going Rogue," hasn't even been officially released yet and already its accuracy is in question.

The Huffington Post has obtained internal McCain campaign emails -- addressed to and by the former vice presidential candidate -- that directly contradict or cast serious doubt on several of Palin's assertions.
Apparently to HuffPo writers and other liberal pundits, the possible success of Palin's book is of such paramount importance as to warrant the procurement of private emails, while the economic enslavement of the world is trivial. Nevertheless, they may try to ignore the eco-cabal collapsing like a portion of the Larsen Ice Shelf on a mid-summer day, but it doesn't make it any less true. Sphere: Related Content
