The Climate has been quiet owing to the fact that Myron Ebell's internet footprint has unaccountably disappeared. If this goes on, I'll have to delve back into the archives of his activities. Where we are now is in part due to the irreparable damage he has done over the past ten years. I'm one who believes that if you kill someone, you are a murderer for the rest of your life. You can't duck your perpetual guilt by going quiet. Justice -- a concept which is unfamiliar in political circles -- doesn't work like that.

Add to that, the cancerous growth that is Myron's home, the Competitive Enterprise Institute, continues to live on. The new generation of plastic grass-heads who call themselves Bureaucrash have attempted a street protest, and wound up looking pretty shifty all told. Don't think you can get on anyone's good side by getting involved in some unrelated cases. Your primary work today -- that which you are paid to do -- is to attack the Law of the sea treaty. By doing so you have provided compelling evidence that it is a good thing. It's like sighting the Grim Reaper; you know someone's going to die when He shows on the scene. Whenever you spot the CEI, you can tell that there is an issue which is overwhelmingly in the public interest, and someone has paid them a lot of money to fight against it.

Fortunately, their efforts have been pretty transparent and inept, partly because these youths haven't come to terms with the fact that in this business you have to lie. It's no use telling the real reasons, no matter how much you believe them in your rotting hearts, because the majority of the people in the world don't work from the assumption that the United States already owns the planet. You might enjoy his rhetoric, but when Thomas Friedman says "Suck On This", the rest of us feel like he has pushed the barrel of a large-bore shotgun into our mouth.

The CEI nodes are outraged that the treaty involves equal access to the sea bed through a system of regulation and tariffs, and that it stipulates the sharing of technology and information. How horrific is that? Well, it means that when Chinese oil companies drill in the vicinity of Florida (there are independent nations round there since not every Government has been successfully overthrown by the CIA), you do not want them to have access to the best technology possible which could avoid the possibility of an oil spill.

Myron and friends love oil spills and pollution. It gives them something to lie about. If it's done by another country, that proves that the work should have been done by an American company. And if it's done by an American one, that just shows they weren't making enough money to afford safety.

Damn, their intellectual lives make me sick. As an antidote, here's John Edwards speaking about Global Warming policy:

"That's more evidence than any politician should ever need. And yet two weeks from now, America will send a delegate to the United Nations conference in Bali with no ideas and no solution. It is embarrassing for the United States of America to be in that position."

Here's Dennis Kucinich beginning with:

"It's great to be at a presidential forum that's not sponsored by the coal industry as the last one was."

Unfortunately the sickness that is American political system is going to deliver us another hell-rider like Clinton, a woman of very little brain but with probably equal confidence in her intellectual ability as George Bush ever had. It suits the elite to impose on us dumb asses who are easily mislead by their bad ideas and can stand in the nexus of lies and power as another signpost on the way to the eventual human extinction. Those lies are deliberately thought up and passed off. Cord Blomquist and Myron Ebell -- at least your mothers loved you.
