on the government payroll, joins a bunch of wacko fruit cakes in a protest march against government, maybe firing the person and filling charges would be in order.

"The democratic process is supposed to be one person one vote, but it turns out that money is talking louder than the votes..."

It's time that environmental activist, political advocate and part-time scientist James Hansen take a look in the mirror. He's always been a bit of a loon but ever since he accepted a $250,000 award from Mrs. John Kerry in 2001 he's seems to have undergone a complete metamorphosis. Some of the things he said prior to 2001 almost seem quite rational.

"The prospects for having a modest climate change impact instead of a disastrous one are quite good, I think.” -August 19, 2000

 

“Skepticism thus plays an essential role in scientific research, and,
far from trying to silence skeptics, science invites their
contributions. So, too, the global warming debate benefits from
traditional scientific skepticism.” -January 17, 1999

 

“Injection of environmental and political perspectives in midstream of
the science discussion cannot help the process of inquiry. I believe
that persons with relevant scientific expertise should concentrate,
with pride, on cool objective analysis, providing information to the
public and decision-makers when it is found, but leaving the moral
implications for later common consideration, or at most for summary
inferential discussion.” -1998

 

“While I don’t agree with Dick Lindzen’s viewpoint on climate change,
he is a member of the National Academy of Sciences with outstanding
accomplishments to his credit (and incidentally, an intellectual and a
very effective debater).”-May 18, 1998

 

This JO is a loose cannon and needs to be reigned in. Especially since now he thinks he's also entitled to take his act overseas.

And who would be the logical choice to do that? The head guy, the NASA Administrator.

Guess what? The previous Administrator resigned effective Inauguration Day, Jan. 20 and NOW NOBODY IS IN CHARGE!

EDIT: Ever occur to anyone the democratic process may be impaired because half the effing government is missing?

Hansen et al have jumped the shark and they realize it. Even if their BS did reduce 'global warming', once the public finds out the costs to change the global temperature a degree or so (supposedly), the public opts out.

The wheels have come off the wagon and the screeching is just getting louder by the day. The alarmists have been ratcheting up the disaster scenario and shortening the deadline monthly. That should tell you a lot about the veracity of this gang of thieves and scammers.

I always love the arguments these guys give: Because I'm not getting the results I want, the democratic process isn't working.

I never realized that a democratic process was supposed to guarantee results that made everybody happy.

As far as I'm concerned, James Hansen, Al Gore and the other eco-Marxists are nothing short of economic terrorists.  It is their brand of intimidation and trumped-up propaganda that dried up energy supplies in a great time of need...effectively triggering the current global economic crisis.  He's already been discredited as a joke, but the damage he continues to do is every bit as harmful to the economy as a terrorist attack.

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." -Winston Churchill

Maybe Hanson should have joined the Global Warming Expedition currently stranded in the artic due to cold weather, down to it's last day of supplies. “We’re hungry, the cold is relentless, our sleeping bags are full of ice,” expedition leader Pen Hadow said in e-mailed statement. “Waiting is almost the worst part of an expedition as we’re in the lap of the weather gods.”

"The democratic process is supposed to be one person one vote, but it turns out that money is talking louder than the votes. So, I'm not surprised that people are getting frustrated. I think that peaceful demonstration is not out of order, because we're running out of time."

Does this idiot realize the USA is a Republic and not a Democracy?  There is not one person one vote, it is our representatives we vote for that are supposed to make the laws.  And yes money is power no matter where you go and most times it is not the people but the corporations and capitalism that decides what is and is not.

But, a start woul be for this clown to recognize how things work.  Democracy through representation is working,, he just doesnt see it or ecognize it as such.

Nuke em til they glow then shoot em in the dark.

What's the matter, Hanson? Did you get voted off the Credibility Island or something?

"All generalizations are false, including this one.” Mark Twain

I told a couple of guys who believe in this "stuff", that if only those who believe would stop driving cars, living in houses, and using products, the issue would be solved. Then, those who don't can go on living a real life, and they could feel good about what they had done. They seem to not like that idea very well.

Better yet, retroactive abortion could help out..maybe fix what should have happened to begin with..but they don't like that idea either..Darn, hard to please them.

It has not affected the sun one wit.
