Conservative Blog Reporting on Media Bias and the Liberal Agenda

“Tell a lie enough times and it will become the truth.” — Heinrich Himmler

“Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way round, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise.” — Adolf Hitler

The Big Lie is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler in his 1925 autobiography Mein Kampf for a lie so “colossal” that no one would believe that someone “could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously”.

In Peacock’s lifetime, there have been several Big Lies, but none as breath taking and as audacious as the Global Warming Scam. This is a lie so big, and so colossal, that it seeks to make us believe that Carbon Monoxide, the gas we exhale, and the gas that is essential for human life on this planet, is a substance that is a threat to mankind.

The pathology of this big lie was obvious from the start: simply put, the politics of Global Warming preceded the science of Global Warming. Although there was speculation going back to the 1880’s about man-made global warming going back to the 1880’s, it was generally ignored since by the middle of the next century there was little warming. In fact, the 1960’s and 1970’s were substantially cooler than previous decades that launched the theory of global cooling being the biggest threat to mankind.

Then, in 1979, Mrs. Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister of the UK, and she elevated the hypothesis of global warming to the status of a major international policy issue. The issue gained enormous support after James Hansen, a physicist and the chief of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, testified before the U.S. Senate in June 1988 that the full force of human-induced global warming had arrived. On this thin basis, work began on the Kyoto Agreement that was signed in 1997. The people who wrote the agreement stated that one of the major objectives of the protocol was to “level the economic playing field by transferring wealth from rich countries to poor countries.”

The governments of the Western world began to funnel billions of dollars in government funding to universities and government agencies to provide the science for the “fact” of Global Warming. Faced with the allure of these dangling grants, they did. The now infamous (and totally discredited) Hockey Stick graph arrived in 2003, and billions more continued to flow into organizations that could make the case.

The real curious thing is, that with all of this funding, no real science was ever done.

What was produced was computer model after computer model that tended to support the general theory. Only results that supported government’s preconceived notions of global warming were awarded with future grants.

Peacock has a good friend who in the late 1987 was called upon The National Center for Atmospheric Research near Boulder, Colorado. They were located in a very nice building designed by IM Pei in the 60’s. Although NCAR at the time was involved more in short term weather forecasting, there was a group studying long term climate change (the focus was still on cooling, not warming. Jimmy Carter had a Presidential Task force studying global cooling!) that had requested assistance. When he first called on this group, he had great difficulty in finding them. After asking person after person, he finally found them in a small, dusty basement office. At the time, they did not even have their own computers, but were begging for computing time from the University of Colorado. Today, these same people are bringing in hundreds of millions of dollars in research grants, have the top floor corner offices in the building, and some of the biggest supercomputers in the world to run their simulations. Better yet, they are seen rock stars, traveling the globe, with rapt audiences at their feet.

Talk about Climate Change!

On his September 16th show, Keith Olbermann added his voice to the shrill top-down NBC chorus of “racism” currently being hummed by the likes of Jimmy Carter, Nancy Peloci, and other far-left liberals.

Obermann spent almost the entire show proclaiming that any opposition to President Obama’s agenda is motivated by racism. True to form, all of Obermann’s evidence was, of course, anecodotal and absent any facts.

Is it a coincidence that the volume has simultaneously been turned up on racism issues in all corners of the liberal wing of the democratic party and its supporters?

No, it isn’t a coincidence. This is a broad coordinated attack with a specific agenda and a large target in mind.

On Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tried to draw an analogy between opposition to Obama’s socialist policies to the 1970’s violence in San Franciso over gay rights when two city officials were killed by a lone gunman.

Who or what is the target of these unfounded assertions about racism?

You’ve probably already guessed: the First Amendment and our Freedom of Speech.

Here’s why and how they hope to stifle our freedom of speech.

Obama and the Democrats have had severe setbacks in the past month. Townhall meetings and outraged citizens (average people, not terrorists) were widely televised for all America to see. Van Jones, an avowed communist, was exposed and forced to resign by use of his own thoughts, deeds, and words. Obama’s ratings have fallen precipitously and the health care debate is rapidly turning against them. Exposure of Acorn’s misdeeds by BigGoverment.com and broad coverage of the story by Fox News and talk radio (and lack of coverage by the mainstream media) have created a public relations nightmare for Obama and the Democrats.

Most importantly, total legislative and executive control by Democrats may be a thing of the past after the 2010 election. Polling trends must be scary for them.

Remember what Rahm Emmanuel, White House Chief of Staff, said about a crisis? “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.”

Would a national civil rights crisis, amplified by the MSM and propped up by outraged astroturf liberals, be serious enough to give them the opportunity to do things they couldn’t otherwise do?

The pieces are now in place for a bold move to exert further government control over our lives.

Cass Sunstein, the newly appointed regulatory czar, wrote in his 1993 book ,”The Partial Constitution,” that he favors the “fairness doctrine,” which requires broadcasters to present controversial issues of public importance in a manner the government deems “equitable and balanced.”

The Fairness Doctrine or something similar has to be forefront in their minds.

Would they really try to gag Fox News and talk radio by using a trumped up emergency?

If you don’t think so, think again. Look at the damage they’ve already done to the US and our economy with their crisis-opportunity strategy.

The Democrats will do anything to remain in power.
