Global Warming Commissars Coming for Skeptics

As it snows in Los Angeles and South Texas thaws from ice storms, those who refuse indoctrination into the cult of global warming are facing the wrath of the stormtroopers.

The Weather Channel’s most prominent climatologist is advocating that broadcast meteorologists be stripped of their scientific certification if they express skepticism about predictions of manmade catastrophic global warming. This latest call to silence skeptics follows a year (2006) in which skeptics were compared to "Holocaust Deniers" and Nuremberg-style war crimes trials were advocated by several climate alarmists.

The Weather Channel’s (TWC) Heidi Cullen, who hosts the weekly global warming program "The Climate Code," is advocating that the American Meteorological Society (AMS) revoke their "Seal of Approval" for any television weatherman who expresses skepticism that human activity is creating a climate catastrophe.

I'm sure Ms.Cullen would thus have no problem with decertifying on-air talent that fail to satisfy certain height, weight, and appearance requirements. How much do you want to bet if she's jettisoned in lieu of a younger, more attractive climatologist, she'd be the first one running to court filing suit for age discrimination?

This whole global warming myth is just a power grab by the left; another way to run you life and you don't have a damned thing to say about it. Talk about slippery slopes.

UPDATE: The Working Grandmother, Stretch Pelosi, comes to the rescue.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sought to create a special committee Thursday in an effort to jump-start long-delayed government efforts to deal with global warming and produce a bill by Independence Day.

"I promise to do everything in my power to achieve energy independence ... and to stop global warming," Pelosi said.

Oh, the vanity.
