Liberal website calls for summary execution of "global warming deniers"
2009-06-03
Marc Morano, Climate Depot

A public appeal has been issued by an influential U.S. website asking: “At what point do we jail or execute global warming deniers.” The appeal appeared on Talking Points Memo, an often cited website that helps set the agenda for the political Left in the U.S. The anonymous posting, dated June 2, 2009, referred to dissenters of man-made global warming fears as “greedy bastards” who use “bogus science or the lowest scientists in the gene pool” to “distort data.”

The Talking Points Memo article continues: “So when the right wing fucktards have caused it to be too late to fix the problem, and we start seeing the devastating consequences and we start seeing end of the World type events - how will we punish those responsible. It will be too late. So shouldn't we start punishing them now?"

Background, from Wikipedia:

Talking Points Memo (or TPM) is a liberal web-based political journalism organization created and run by Josh Marshall. It debuted on November 12, 2000. It covers a wide range of topics including U.S. foreign policy, domestic politics (especially at the federal level) and domestic policy....

A "spin-off" blog also created by Josh Marshall is a companion website called TPMCafe, which debuted on 2005-05-31. This site features a collection of blogs about a wide range of domestic and foreign policy issues written by academics, journalists and former public officials among others.

Update: 8:44 AM ET: Talking Points Memo (TPM) has removed the article from their website. "The file you are looking for has not been found" - But the url with a portion of the chilling message lingers as evidence: "at-what-point-do-we-jail-or-ex..." - http://tpmcafe.talkingpointsmemo.com/talk/blogs/crazedandconfused/2009/06/at-what-point-do-we-jail-or-ex.php?ref=reccafe - Climate Depot has also saved a screen shot of the original article.

#15  We will speak as much of global warming in 2020 as we are speaking now of the Y2K-bug

#10  The earth is only 150 years out of the Little Ice Age (1450 to 1850). The sun's activity only recently recently reached that of the Medieval Warming Period, that is, until the recent inactivity and dropping temperatures.

#9  This is what happens when people confuse political science with science. These people are too stupid to talk to.

#8  Global warming IS occurring. Sea level IS rising. It's been going on for the last 20,000 years or so. And it happened several other times in the last half million years. Some claim CO2 was involved. Some think continental shifts. Most think it was mainly solar variations. In any case, the human species was not the cause then. While we may be a contributing factor now, precedent strongly suggests we are not the primary cause now.

And, libtards, if you want to execute me, you had better come with a lot more firepower than you normally carry or approve of. Oh, and spend some serious time at the range first.

#7  Jeeze, I would like to cut off their access to evil electric power. Let them try to get internet access using wind or biomethane or whatever flatulence they substitute for knowledge and the scientific method.

#6  If they are going to lock everybody up, they better get a move on before the next Ice Age sets in.

Perhaps one day in the not to distant future, the word 'liberal' will once again come to mean a belief in freedom, markets and small government.

#5  People - always remember.

The left point of view REQUIRES that conservatives - and in particular, devout Christians - be deemed the greatest evil possible in the universe.

If this becomes not so, even for a microsecond, their entire worldview falls apart, since their basic governing principle is that the worst evil is a white male Christian heterosexual non-Marxist. (To which has been added, apparently, anyone who doesn't believe in the AGW hoax.)

If something is that evil, in their minds,it must be destroyed. (See the Messiah's description of the private sector as 'the enemy' for another example.) This is why you see these writings. And these people are dead serious when they write it.

"When you're in with the Lord, there's just one reward, and they'd just as soon make it come true...."

#4  FYI - the County of SD backed down on the permit req't for the Pastor

#3  I'd laugh, but it is no longer funny and quite frankly is getting a bit scary. I noticed on another site that liberals were threatening to report to homeland security another poster whom they labeld a "terrorist" for expressing that, though he was appalled by Tiller's murder, he felt that that the abortion doctor had much blood on his hands. In San Diego, they demanded a pastor get a multi-use permit costing thousands for holding small Bible studies in their home. I fully expect we will see the Bible labeled hate speech for its opposition to homosexuality - or whatever- within the next few years. And those who think this will stop at Christianity aren't paying attention. This will quickly extend to anyone with any opposing view on anything. It is amazing how fast this is all coming about.

Well this is news. When did Al Gore come over to the Dark Side?
