Does the fact that those fringe kooks are costing civilization an arm and a leg (while not reducing or removing ANY of the objects or actions creating their unfounded fears) escape you, Jim? I guess I'm missing the issue here. Is it soros and moveon.org, or is it the neocons and the war in iraq? Soros & Co's environmentalist buddies are quite probably as as costly as the phony "war on terror" + seizure and destruction of everything else we hold dear (which I feel they're after), and two political evils don't make any of it right. I agree with Soros' statement that this administration is leading the country in a ruinous direction, though. I think the second really does trump the first when it comes to 'arm and a leg.' But we're left appendageless and bankrupt after the two niches get done with us. sigh -- DON'T VOTE. IT ONLY ENCOURAGES THEM! |

It's the fact that he's -spending- that much money on the groups which drew my ire, Ed. Holy cow. How can a libertarian, of all people, object to spending money on fringe groups? g I recently finished reading Ronald Bailey's The True State of the World and EcoScam. Almost any group mentioned in those books draw my ire. What's your take on him? Dunno. I don't read him. But the paragraph below, which is a string of cliches and canned phrases taken right out of the populist/indignation playbook, aimed at selling books and gaining readership from the indignant-malcontent hoard without any need for specifics or genuine research, doesn't encourage me to do so, either. I can't remember ever getting "bulk quantities of junk mail" warning me of ozone depletion or topsoil erosion. My bulk quantities of junk mail are credit-card offers and discount deals from local department stores. To complete the iron triangle, throw in the almost-daily missives from the ARRP, spiced with occassional flurries from the state GOP. -- Ed Huntress -- Unfortunately, not only do scientists have an incentive to cry "crisis," so too do the environmental advocacy groups need crises.
