Climategate Clobbers Con-Men

SOLO-International Op-Ed: Climategate Clobbers Con-Men

Hilton Holder
December 6, 2009


From the very first moment man became a thinking being, the predators among us wrinkled their noses in arousal when they observed how even the best among men became easy prey to superstition when confronted with an utter lack of evidence in explaining then-unknown natural phenomena such as lightning or fire.

Such phenomena were attributed to the workings of an omnipotent force, a "God," for want of a scientific explanation. Of course it didn't take long for the shrewdest of the predators to cash in on man's weakness. They simply had to self-appoint and then sufficiently sell themselves to the scrounging mobs as God's chosen lobbyists, capable of somehow getting God Himself to deliver on special requests for assorted miracles.

That is how they gained their power, and when the most ruthless gangsters spotted the priests' neat little money-spinner, they muscled in, and since then kings and priests have been thick as the thieves that they are.

One would have thought Jefferson's Bill of Rights would have prevented organised crime in government ... 'fraid not. It seems that unless and until the majority of voters start realising the moral importance of, and start campaigning for, a complete separation of state and economics, religion, education (and now science), we shall never have a moment's peace from the criminals who seemingly inevitably become our political leaders.

If "Climategate" doesn't offer the clearest evidence of how corrupt a mixed economy can become, nothing will. Evidence shows a worldwide political scam of such magnitude that I doubt it could ever be trumped.

The show was set for a whitewash. Polls revealed the emergence of a special interest group with unstoppable momentum. Two thousand years of religious brainwashing touting the Fall of Man as having been responsible for alienating us from paradise, combined with four generations of anti-free-market socialist propaganda driven by envy-ridden intellectuals and educators set the scene for an impending Royal Flush for prudent pollies.

All the ducks were in a row. To start with, most climate scientists had sold out and become "global warming" and then "climate change" shills in exchange for ever-increasing payoffs (research grants). The economy was ticking along nicely (no doubt due to GW's only credible economic policy). The green ideology was gaining momentum since it was forced by liberal fiat into the international educational curriculum.

One would have thought that the inauguration of the first blatantly anti-American American president would be the coup de grace. All Obamas's commie confederates were grinning from ear to ear, most notably the one-eyed Scottish Idiot, and last and least, our own talented Mr Rudd.

Copenhagen was to be the deathblow for individual freedom in the developed world. All encumbent pollies were salivating at the idea of a lifetime Gold-membership at their favourite kleptocracy, but methinks a few peskie details are derailing the gravy-train.

First, we have to give thanks to Al Gore himself. Just one look at that smarmy oleaginous hypocrite should convince, and has convinced, most on this planet about his true intent.

Next would be Fox News and their vigil, the only channel worth watching and their unwavering support of the truth, not to mention the tireless exposes of corruption by Glenn Beck, Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and a handful of others.

Next we have to thank Al Gore once again. After all, he claims to have been the inventor of the Internet, and without him we wouldn't have had the blogs responsible for his demise.

Then, we salute the hacker responsible for shining the spotlight on the criminal acts of the CRU. "Climategate" is going to leave these roaches and their allies no space to hide, and the guilty will be cast out and rightfully condemned for undermining an entire profession.

Finally we thank Ayn Rand, the only philosopher brave enough to formulate the ideas not only to sustain life for man the individual, but more importantly to fuel an individual life worth living. It was she who first exposed Attila and the Witch Doctor.

Man did not fall. Life is not guilt. The Witch Doctors masquerading as scientists, and the Attilas who sponsor them with stolen money, have been unmasked in the nick of time. Their intended definitive assault on freedom has been undone by their own perfidy.
