The Hoax on the Hill

It doesn't matter how screwed up, insane, and unreasonable the decision making process in the Government is, just as long as Myron gets his way. In spite of being part of the withering minority, Myron is chippy at the prospect of an unreconstructed corporate stooge like Senator Inhofe occupying a key position in the Congressional hierarchy which enables him to block any and all progress on this matter with his off-the-wall claim that Climate Change is "greatest single hoax ever perpetrated on the American people."

The Myron Ebell Climate believes that, hoax or not, the belief in Climate Change has not actually permeated through to the American people yet. It cannot be a hoax, because, although Climate Change itself has cost the American people dearly in extra droughts and hurricanes, belief in such a concept has lead to no effective change in policy whatsoever.

Meanwhile, it's easy to list some of the massive hoaxes that have been perpetrated at great cost on the American People, not to mention the real victims whom the American People have paid themselves to massacre. Setting aside the huge economic hoaxes, such as their hilarious private medical insurance system, there's the whole of The War on Terror, the gulag at Guantanamo Bay, Iraq's nonexistant Weapons of Mass Destruction and subsequent invasion, the Afghanistan Taliban noninvolvement in 9/11, the reinvasion of Kuwait in 1991, the Cold War and nuclear armament, and the awesome, not yet equalled, fifteen year mechanized massacre of three million Vietnamese people in their own country for no good reason.

This is the way it goes when we get nothing but lies, arrogance, and historical amnesia. Myron is a rotting fungus on the face of our collective memory, destroying truth and replacing it with cancer. He is helping America to drown in the swamp of her own corporate mindrot. No one will shed a tear when she dies, though we may cry if she takes the rest of the world to hell with her.
