The right wingers are pulling out all the rhetorical stops in trying to pretend that global warming is all just a hoax cooked up by Marxist ideologues. Take, for instance, Bill Bennett last night on Sean Hannity's show:
Bennett: It's amazing, you know -- the power of ideology to blind people to reality. You've got this Russian report that you cited -- you know, this thing is falling apart. You had the stuff out of East Anglia University -- I mean, this is reminiscent of the old alchemy, and phrenology stuff.
I mean, this, this -- there's so much junk, so much corruption in the fact that we would fork over a hundred billion dollars. Plus I think the biggest event at Copenhagen was the standing, thunderous standing ovation to Hugo Chavez when he condemned capitalism. That tells you really what that meeting is all about, it seems to me.
Hannity: That's what I want to get to. If we look at the ClimateGate scandal, coupled with what you just pointed out, we've pointed out, about this Russian climate center, what they had to say, there's another agenda. Why would a scientist -- and I have really not gotten a satisfactory answer from anybody -- why would scientists risk their careers and their reputations to lie and manipulate data if there wasn't some agenda? And if they are, and there is an agenda, what is it?
Bennett: Yeah, well, take a look at Soviet psychiatry under Stalin, take a look at various kinds of medical, quote, science under Hitler, and you'll again see the power of ideology to bend men to their, to the ways of the dictator.
You know, I remember reading that biography of Einstein. There's a list of all the scientists who were driven out of Germany by Hitler because of his crazy policies. It's the world's roster of greatest scientists. That's what's happening here. You're getting some of the best people in the world questioning what is going on in this supposedly accepted wisdom, and the thing's falling apart.
Really? A minor dustup among a handful of e-mails is just like Hitler's persecution of the Jews within the German scientific community? Climate scientists are acting like Nazi medical experimenters? Climate science is just like phrenology? Global warming is about bending us to the will exactly which dictator?
Christ on a crutch, get a grip, people. Or at least some tiny bit of perspective.
Hannity has been out leading the parade in trying to make global warming out to be a hoax. And he's obviously pulling out all the stops.
Bennett is right about one thing, though: This situation does indeed powerfully illustrate "the power of ideology to blind people to reality." Just not the way he thinks it does.
Or as the Pat Bagley cartoon put it:

Bennett's "Book of Virtues" is a whirlwind of misinterpreted fables. If you ever pick up a copy, check out his interpretation of Christ's parable of the Good Samaritan. It would make my Sunday school teacher roll over in her grave.

Wait, lemme guess ... the real moral of the fable is that first you should roll any victim left for dead to see if he has any change in his pockets ...
I think Joe Scarborough topped this, this morning when he asked one of his guest if we should believe everything scientists say just as we should believe everything in the bible.
The right is scared shitless of science because it blows many of their claims all to hell and back. They see science as some sort of voodoo except of course when they are seeking a preventative shot to ward off some disease.

you can bet on Joe, Bill, and the Bible and odds are you will not fall off the edge of the earth or fry in hell.
Or you can bet on the scientists and drown in your winnings. If you don't fry first on earth.

about the faith thing, but cavemen riding dinosaurs doesn't have immediate ramifications, whereas thawing tundra and rising ocean temps do. But as Bertrand Russell once famously observed, "The problem with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt."

Some guy with an eating disorder
in Venezuela in 1922. Americans wrote Venezuela's petrolum laws. Until Chavez came to power, most of Venezuela's oil revenue went to Americans. Chavez changed that, and as a result, over a million hitherto illiterate adults have learned to read, and Venezuela has one of the best healthcare systems in Latin America. Child malnutrition and infant mortality rates have declined under his leadership, due entirely to more equitable distribution of oil revenue, which is the backbone of Venezuela's economy and has been for over 80 years. What's he supposed to do, closed down all the oil facilities? He inherited this mess; he didn't create it.
As far as Chavez goes he lost any residual credibility when he rather hastily pushed a bill through Venezuela's legislature that put the school system into the hands of his party hacks to advance the Bolivarian revolution. Now his party writes the curriculum, decides who gets to be a teacher or a professor regardless of tenure and for good measure they threw in a nice clause that allows any media outlet to be shut down if it is found guilty of frightening children. On the bright side they only fired rubber bullets at the teachers and academics who marched on the legislature in protest. In real socialist countries the agendas on health care,education and social equity are advanced democratically and not through setting up yourself as a tinpot dictator. Making the trains run on time doesn't cut it as an excuse on either the left or the right. Chavez is pure demagogue.

I like the way much of Europe operates particularly the Scandinavian countries. The Germans and the Swiss, the French all seem to have found ways to balance good social policy while keeping the much more efficient use of resources that capitalism provides and most importantly without suppressing democracy. You want to see an environmental wasteland and wasted opportunities and resources look to the ex-Soviet countries. That is more likely to be Chavez's model.
Hasa Diga Eebowai
You started out by saying Chavez was a hypocrite because his country produces oil, then you switched to complaining about the way he treats teachers, now you are comparing Venezuela -- a third world country that the CIA & American corporations are trying to destroy -- with Western industrialized European nations that were rebuilt under the Marshall plan and are defended by NATO. Let's stick to the original topic, shall we? Chavez, for all his faults, has wrested control of his contry's oil resources away from nefarious foreign interests, and is using the revenue from that industry to help his fellow countrymen. I think blaming AGW on capitalism, as he has done, is laying it on a little thick. But I don't think he is a hypocrite just because his country sells its only valuable resource to other countries who misuse it.
I was beginning to feel like cutting up my CITGO card before this last comment. I wouldn't want to be contributing to the hypocrisy of a petty para military tyrant.

Could I not make this clearer: The way Chavez is operating the Venezuelan oil industry is to maximize short term production which leaves substantial resources unusable and with little concern for environmental consequences. He is using the money to buy votes with what appear to be wonderful advances in social programs. No thought whatsoever has been given to developing a post-oil industrial economy (those people he considers enemies) capable of sustaining those programs and they will disappear when the oil does. His idea of socialism is pure bullshit and ultimately the people of Venezuela will pay the price. This is no model for sustainability and for Chavez to propose it as a "new" model is nothing but hypocritical. As you can see his presence does nothing but provide fodder for the know- nothings. He's just one more bogeyman and there are enough of those already.
Hasa Diga Eebowai
is that Venezuela's oil industry is harming the environment, then I agree. But every nation's oil industry harms the environment, and, again, Chavez inherited his nation's oil industry from Chevron and Exxon, et al., and it's been harming the environment for decades. Of all the evil ignoramuses doing harm to the environment, however -- especially where AGW is concerned -- zeroing in on Chavez seems to belie an ulterior motive. This thread started out about Bill Bennet, the gamble-holic fake moralist. How you saw that as an invitation to clobber Hugo Chavez, I don't understand.
I acknowledge Chavez has many faults, but so does Sarkozy and the tax-dodger-abetters in Switzerland and so forth. Whatsamatta? Got Chavez on the brain or something?
provided yet more ammunition to people like Bennett while offering absolutely nothing constructive to the debate. Do you really think Chavez is someone who'll act as a ally in this thing. He does more harm than good. Certainly Copenhagen's organizers didn't think so. If you feel I'm picking on Chavez unfairly I'll throw in Mugabe as an equally unpalatable rabble rouser that we really don't need as allies to persuade reasonable people to do the reasonable thing. If you think I'm burning bandwidth to no point why did you engage in the debate? Feeling a little defensive re Hugo?

You'd think the extreme religious rightwing would welcome global warming and the death of all life on earth - that seems to be the prerequisite for Christ's return, although by that time, there won't be anyone left alive to inherit the earth.
On the other, I do hope they're right, that global warming isn't happening, that the earth isn't dying. I really do - but I'd rather do everything and anything necessary now to allow them to BE right rather than wait until the oceans boil to say 'I told you so...'
they seem to be right and while predictions are not so dire as boiling oceans they are bad enough.
