The $windle Turns
Interesting developments in the world of anthropomorphic global warming (AGW) debaters on The Left. There is now emerging a clear critique of AGW coming from the left wing side to match that of the critique from the right. Of course, some like Alexander Cockburn have been highly critical of the methodology and motivations of the AGW crown for some time.
But now, the Huffington Post has expressly called out Al Gore and demanded that he "apologize" (yeah right) for the intellectual shortcomings and policy idiocies that have grown out of his AGW advocacy. It's about time. The idea of government trying to control the weather is a totalitarian fantasy, even if it comes from the former Vice President of the United States.
Of course, some people are forecasting an even more dire future filled with famine, floods, and war. Sounds like fun! AGW might even - you might want to sit down for this - lead to war between the US and Canada. Because the Northwest Passage might defrost. Which Canada claims, but the US would insist on claiming as an international waterway. You bet, James!
