What Are They Afraid Of?


Democrats: "We don't allow your kind in here."

Report: Democrats Refuse to Allow Skeptic to Testify Alongside Gore At Congressional
Hearing:

Washington, DC -- UK's Lord Christopher Monckton, a former science advisor to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, claimed House Democrats have refused to allow him to appear alongside former Vice President Al Gore at a high profile global warming hearing on Friday April 24, 2009 at 10am in Washington. Monckton told Climate Depot that the Democrats rescinded his scheduled joint appearance at the House Energy and Commerce hearing on Friday. Monckton said he was informed that he would not be allowed to testify alongside Gore when his plane landed from England Thursday afternoon.

“The House Democrats don't want Gore humiliated, so they slammed the door of the Capitol in my face,” Monckton told Climate Depot in an exclusive interview. “They are cowards.”

According to Monckton, Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas), Ranking Member on the Energy & Commerce Committee, had invited him to go head to head with Gore and testify at the hearing on Capitol Hill Friday. But Monckton now says that when his airplane from London landed in the U.S. on Thursday, he was informed that the former Vice-President had “chickened out” and there would be no joint appearance. Gore is scheduled to testify on Friday to the Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment's fourth day of hearings on the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009. The hearing will be held in 2123 Rayburn House Office Building.

I would think our Eco-sensitive, Climate Conscious Democrats would have told the Repukes to tell Lord Monckton to stay home, thus saving Gaia from having another murderous Carbon Footprint thrust upon her, perhaps Lord Monckton's flight had Earth Friendly re-usable air sickness bags, reducing the total Carbon Footprint...

On Earth Day,"The One" certainly was not in a charitable mood toward Gaia.

What are they afraid of? How about some real scientific investigation, like Steve McIntyre does here.

This is not about science. This is about sensibilities.

Dr. Gore is an extremely sensitive man who is not just capable of reading the thoughts of millions but also has the ability to form accurate mental images of what the Earth will look like 50 or a 100 years hence. Very few human beings possess this mental facility. He must concentrate intensely in order for these words and images to appear. He would only be distracted by some scientist babbling facts and figures.

There will be a very large sign at the hearing saying, “Please maintain absolute silence while Dr. Gore envisions the future of planet Earth.”
