Fiction and Fact from Sam’s Almanac was the name of a segment on the long gone radio show originating from WLS Chicago, the Don McNeill’s Breakfast Club, of the 40s and early 50s. Though long on fiction and short on fact, Sam Cowling’s shtick was always funny and the audience would hoot and howl at his crazy pronouncements. But what we are hearing from the “Stick it To Them Pogrom” of the nut job (a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama) is neither fact nor funny. It is so short on facts it is best described as fiction.

However, there is one fact that is pure fiction and that is that global warming/climate change mantra is heading us to doomsday. And those who are using everything but facts are bleating away as if they are in charge of all things in the universe. As one of the nut job’s henchmen, Rahm Emanuel, said, “Never let a serious crisis go to waste.” And they are going full speed to accomplish mayhem with help of the ivory tower sycophants. Researchers at Harvard have a report that says that, “To meet the Obama administration’s targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, some researchers say, Americans may have to experience a sobering reality: gas at $7 a gallon,” according to a New York Times Dot Earth blog.

Dot Earth should be the first clue for the idea. The intellectual residents of the ivory tower sit in their plush chairs and pontificate on that which is nebulous at best. They ride in their own vehicles or take public transportation to the tower of “knowledge.” Their minds are so much superior to the rest of us that they refuse to stoop to the realities that all working and retired citizens face every day.

The “oh so smart” ones who know best what all of us should do, had better think about what will happen to their lives if taxes increase the price of fuel.  If gasoline goes to $ 7 per gallon, it makes no difference whether taxes have raised the price or whether the refinery has done so, the economy well grind to a halt in a short time. Farmers will not be able to afford to raise food, much less haul it to market for processing. Processors will reduce their operations or go out of business. In other words, life will become very hard when food becomes scarce.

All of this nonsense about taxing gasoline to reduce its use is predicated on the global warming, green house gases stupidity of Al Gore and the so-called scientists. The moniker So-Called Scientists is because at last count most of the “scientists” spouting the consensus of global warming science were social scientists. Being not sure what credentials Al Gore has on his resume for science, in addition to being an idiot, I’ll suggest he may have slept next door to a neo-scientist at a cheap motel. The type of scientist next door is not known, but that which we do know leads one to believe that many of the scientists involved are anything but honest.

Many flaws are abundant in the climate study, but one glaring flaw is the fact that none of the hypotheses can be proven because experiments and replication of the experiments aren’t possible. At best, only scientific principles of inquiry can be used and even those principles have been ignored for political correctness.

It must be declared it is fiction that gasoline must be $7 per gallon to combat a nonexistent global warming climate change notion, which isn’t fact at all. Sam Cowling made more sense due to the fact the listeners knew he was spoofing and having fun. Yet, if we use a bit of Food For Thought, it is evident that the climate change nut-balls aren’t spoofing. They are deadly serious even though their spouting is devoid of facts and is pure fiction.
