Ignorance

“There are some people that if they don’t know, you can’t tell ‘em”
Louis “Satchmo” Armstrong, 1997

“Being Ignorant Is not so much a Shame, as being unwilling to learn.”
Benjamin Franklin, 1755

BRITAIN SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER OVER CLIMATE CHANGE
AMERICAN MEDIA YAWNS

byMichael C. Ruppert

“BRITAIN: BLAIR WARNING ON CLIMATE CHANGE The threat posed by climate change may be "greater than we thought," and global warming from the emission of greenhouse gases, is advancing at a "rate that is unsustainable," Prime Minister Tony Blair said in a new report based on government-sponsored research. The report, Avoiding Dangerous Climate Change, warned that the huge West Antarctic ice sheet might be starting to disintegrate, an event that could raise sea levels by 16 feet. A previous report played down worries about the ice sheet's stability and characterized it as a "slumbering giant." The new report says, "It is now an awakened giant," adding, "There is real concern." (AP)..”


The world, and this, curiously enough, includes the United States, is facing humanity ending climate change...and the U.S. press says nothing. The Tyrant-in-Chief says nothing. The Politicians of either stripe say nothing. It is not the topic on talk shows or Oprah. No newspaper headline shouts the threatened future and the well groomed stars of nightly Television News are silent.

The rest of the world knows...how come we don't?

In some cases this is due to obvious political manipulation and secrecy, but there is another factor: Many Americans just don't want to know.

"I've got enought to worry about, the kids need braces and my roof leaks."

"Global Warming? What's so bad about that, it will be warmer. I like summer."

"Oh that's just the liberals screaming about the 'sky is falling'."

Global Warming is a fact.
