Comment on Global Warming, Again by George Barker

George Barker — Sun, 21 Dec 2008 18:46:57 +0000

I am just a 90 year old retired mediocre engineer, used to designing things by methods one could discuss freely without interference by political acceptability.
I agree with most of the “snippets” – if I was the project manager of a design to reduce damage to life and material from global warming I would feel compelled to put the major effort into protection rather than the fashionable but fictional prevention.

It may well be that we can reduce greenhouse gases at great upset to our economy but the effect will be tiny, whereas the same spend on sound protection projects could mean the salvation of millions of people.

This is not to say that economy is use of the Earth’s resources should not be pursued – it should.

It is sad that the establishment has even intelligent people I know cast into the fashionable mould – when I expess theses views I am thought to be a nut case.

Great stuff. Let me added a little about taxes: Obama’s tax plan as of a few weeks ago included a increase in capitol gains tax to 30% which will result in less tax revenues. Folks feel cheated by these high rates and will simply not take as many capitol gains. Obama says this isn’t true so maybe he has a plan to force people to take profits? OR..he continues to be misguided by his friends on the far left.

And, you are not a bolshevik, although I suspect a part of you wouldn’t mind it if you were……

If you can bring yourself to do it, read Stanly Kurtz’s article on the Ayers connection. It’s real, and they are friends, and they have had, over the years, a symbiotic relationship. The only concern should be why Obama wants to conceal it. As to what’s wrong with a leftward tilt, you know, I confess there probably isn’t much wrong, provided the seizure of the levers of power doesn’t act to prevent the swinging of the pendulum to the right, as it should naturally. People are getting so nasty, and so dismissive of other perspectives, that I really worry about the health of a two-party system.

I don’t really dispute anything you wrote here. I simply ask, with no flippancy: What’s so wrong with coming at things from a leftward tilt?

American politics has always been a pendulum, and it’s time for a swing back from the right. And frankly, having lived overseas and poked around a bit, I suspect Obama doesn’t look so radical to those folks in the People’s Republic of Canada.

The only thing I’m sorry to see here is the Ayers reference. It’s a weak inference and just the best the McCain folks can find at the moment.

I think President Obama will do a better job than his predecessor and I sincerely hope that in four years we’ll be debating him in terms of effectiveness instead of his alleged radicalness.

Because if Obama is radical, then I’m a Bolshevik. Which I don’t think I am, by the way.
