The Million Man Carbon Hoax

LISTENING TO RUSH LIMBAUGH, if done properly, can be quite comforting. Do people in countries which are not the united states listen to rush online? Do they have software which translates el rushbo into their native tongue? Do any of them have have any idea what he's talking about?

To all these, questions, one can only hope the answer is "yes". Merely by resaurring us that global warming/climate change is a hoax does rush bring comfort. Oh, if only he could be correct. Wouldn't it be wonderful if millions of liberal environmental wackos would come forth ala lance armstrong, confess en masse while shedding tears and begging for another chance? Climatic mea culpa!

A huge press conference, with thousands of poorly dressed liberals, sobbing, begging. Beautiful!

Unless I'm dreaming, rush asserts that the hoax is being perpetuated by left wingers, socialists, whose real agenda is to destroy capitalism, and replace it with socialism. So, according to this theory, its the liberals-democrats who believe, or pretend to believe, that capitalism is killing the environment.

The only slight chink in this armor is that it appears that there are quite a few people who believe in climate change, and that human activity is responsible for it, who are not socialists. Nowadays there are moderates, and even some brave conservatives who acknowledge that humans have put a lot of carbon in the atmosphere, and that carbon absorbs heat more than  Nitrogen or Oxygen.

Imagine that, american conservatives, believing in chemistry. But only a few of them, and they are all considered traitors to corporate capitalism, and freedom, by their peers. For a conservatve to acknowledge climate change, the explanation must consist of natural cycles, not human materialism.

Extra carbon, and where it came from, and what it does, must be ingnored to be a rush limbaugh hoaxer. Easily obtained calculations of how much carbon has been released by humans, and how much is currently in the atmosphere, and their coincidental equivalence, must likewise be ignored.

The increase in the carbon content of the earth's atmosphere is a natural cycle, and worse, a hoax.
