Laurie Oakes proves the even the most senior journalists deal not in truth
but perception:
"Whether or not global warming is responsible for our current weather hardly
matters. In politics, as everyone knows, perceptions are everything. "
"It's not hard to imagine the response Minchin would have got if he'd tried
to sell his "no need for action" line to mothers of young children in
Adelaide as the temperature hit 42C the other day."
Do you know to whom the truth about global warming's role should matter,
Laurie?
To you and anyone else dealing with the wisdom of crippling an economy on a
mad plan that cannot stop a warming that may well have stopped already.
If you're not interested in the truth, then do not speak at all.
And do not try to hound out of Parliament the few who still dare to speak
for evidence and for reason.

"It is a remarkable fact that despite the worldwide expenditure of perhaps
US$50 billion since 1990, and the efforts of tens of thousands of scientists
worldwide, no human climate signal has yet been detected that is distinct
from natural variation."
Bob Carter, Research Professor of Geology, James Cook University, Townsville
Will you convinced when half baked on one side & rare on the other ?
Here, munch on this!
"...If anything, I would like to see the climate change happen, so the
science could be proved right, regardless of the consequences. This isn't
being political, it is being selfish. "
