@@ Are you talking about that certain UN-favored shake-down artist
who failed to declare his financial interest before whipping up
worldwide alarm with his trademark errors and exaggerations? Are you
talking about the director of Lehman Brothers, a global finance house
that wants to control the worldwide managed market in
carbon-emissions trading? You mean the one who founded his own
"green" corporation, Generation Investment Management, and is a paid
member of the Board of a renewable-energy company? You mean the one
who if in the UK, made a speech containing so many deliberate and
unidirectional errors as he did in Bali, and failed to declare his
financial interest, would be committing a criminal offence?
Between him and the theologically challenged "Reverend" John ('Unless
we announce disasters, no one will listen' ) Houghton, et.al., it's
hard to say who are the biggest "Liars for Jesus".
I'm sorry to break your "patience until '08" bubble, but the
racketeer at Bali has conned you into thinking he is right.
Here''s how it's going to come down:
Fred Thompson calls for boosting "energy security" by increasing
domestic supplies, reducing demand for oil and gas, and promoting
alternative and renewable energy.
Fred Thompson supports "clean coal."
Fred Thompson supports expansion of nuclear power.
Fred Thompson wants to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to
oil drilling (and in 2002, voted to do so).
"Energy independence? Let's be honest about that. We're not gonna be
energy independent overnight, it's gonna be some time. We've not been
doing things very smart for a long time. You don't change those
things overnight. ... We've got to use the resources we've got here
at home. We can do ANWR without doing any environmental damage; I've
looked at it, I'm convinced of it." ~ Fred Thompson -- Sept. 9,
2007, on the campaign trail in New Hampshire
"Some people think that our planet is suffering from a fever. Now
scientists are telling us that Mars is experiencing its own planetary
warming: Martian warming. It seems scientists have noticed recently
that quite a few planets in our solar system seem to be heating up a
bit, including Pluto. NASA says the Martian South Pole's "ice cap"
has been shrinking for three summers in a row. Maybe Mars got its
fever from earth. If so, I guess Jupiter's caught the same cold,
because it's warming up too, like Pluto. This has led some people,
not necessarily scientists, to wonder if Mars and Jupiter,
non-signatories to the Kyoto Treaty, are actually inhabited by alien
SUV-driving industrialists who run their air-conditioning at 60
degrees and refuse to recycle. Silly, I know, but I wonder what all
those planets, dwarf planets, and moons in our solar system have in
common. Hmm. Solar system. Hmmmm. Solar? I wonder. Nah, I guess we
shouldn't even be talking about this. The science is absolutely
decided. There's a consensus. Ask Galileo." ~ Fred Thompson -- April
2007, speaking about climate change on Paul Harvey's radio show
In 2002, voted to renew the Price-Anderson Act, which caps liability
and the amount of money nuclear-power facilities would have to pay in
the event of a nuclear catastrophe. (The act was eventually renewed
as part of the 2005 energy bill, extending liability protection to
the nuke industry until the end of 2025.)
In 2001, cosponsored an unsuccessful bill that would have provided
financial incentives to retrofit coal plants with "clean coal"
technology, supported coal research and development programs, and
exempted some coal plants from the Clean Air Act new-source review
rules requiring new or significantly renovated power plants to use
the best available technology to limit their air pollution.
In 2001, cosponsored an unsuccessful bill to give a variety of
financial and other incentives to nuclear power plants and
nuclear-plant operators.

~ Janice .... There is such a thing as pathological science. Science
becomes unhealthy when its only real question --- "what is true?"
--- is sabotaged by vested interests, by ideological Commissars, or
even by grant-swinging scientists. Today's Global Warming campaign is
endangering real, honest science. Global Warming superstition has
become an international power grab, and good science suffers as a
result. ~ James Lewis
