The Political Alarmist’s Flip-Flop
September 28, 2009
Here is a story you will love. President Obama's science advisor, John Holdren, wrote a book in 1971 in which he warned us of the likelihood of global cooling and a new ice age.
Now he's on the other side, promoting the fiction of global warming. Holdren made the charts and graphs for Al Gore's propaganda film, "An Inconvenient Truth," which Gore to this day refuses to debate with anyone else. That's what cult leaders do. You must put complete faith in them. There is no room for doubt, much less any information that might lead the followers in another direction.
Look up Holdren's writings. They are contained in an essay called "Global Ecology: Readings toward a Rational Strategy for Man."
John Holdren is an alarmist. There are many people like him, constantly squawking that doom is upon us. They make quite a nice living at it, but now he has the power to do something about it. He and the administration must be stopped.
