While the rest of the world is now wondering just how
dump Donald Jr. is – and really as others have pointed out if you have to spell
out in an e-mail that you have stuff from the Russian Government that will hurt
Hillary you are dealing with a fool.
The mind does boggle elementary tradecraft to borrow John
Le Carre’s phrase would at least include not leaving a paper trail of any sort
but if communications are needed then at the very least a simple replacement
code could be worked out ‘Fur Coat’ for Hillary say or something like that. Not
“Oh the Russian Government has bad stuff on Hillary and are willing to share,
Great what time can we meet?”
It’s daylight madness and implicates not only Donald Jr. but
his Brother in law and the former Campaign Manager and as others have noted
quite possibly Donald as well as after this meeting went down he gave a speech
threatening/ promising to have bad stuff about Hillary.
Well that story is moving so fast I’m not sure who has
the time and ability to keep up with it and link all the threads together into
a coherent whole – better and smarter men and women than I for sure.
Anyway as this cut-rate spy novel lurches along I found
myself interested in a weird little hashtag campaign climate change lies or
some such – (the actual hashtag isn’t really important) when in climate change
denying types launched their gibberish onto twitter and of course ended up
being answered back by a lot of people who pointed out they were lying or had
no real grasp of science.
All well and good –still I’ve always been wondering just
why these folks are sooooo insistent that climate change isn’t real a hoax or
whatever it made no sense to me
But as I was
reading the tweets that were denying climate science a theme emerged. It really
wasn’t the change in climate that these folks were railing against their most venomous
barbs were launched at the responses to climate change all of which they
insisted were merely a back door socialism and that’s when it hit me.
Simply put It’s this” There is no market based solution
to Climate Change , in order to at least lessen the impact of climate a large amount
of fossil fuels will simply have to stay in the ground. Even if there is a
demand for them. Government is simply going to have to made decisions about how
much CO2 gets pumped into the air, nobody else is capable of doing that effectively.
Which is what drives them mad in the end, it’s not the
actual even in this case climate change it’s the cult like worship of the free
market as the be all and end all of humanity that they are defending.
Oh yes it’s why they hate Gov supplied health care as well.
