Proof that Ignorance Isn’t Bliss: Climate Change Deniers

This is a twist. This letter goes beyond denial. The writer is certain that Rich Liberals want him to live like a caveman while they live in modern luxury. Paranoid delusions. Look closely at who profits from continuing as we have been. Follow the money from Big Oil. It flows everywhere, but a lot has ended up in the pockets of Republican Deniers.

Man Didn’t Dry Up River or Heat the Earth
        RE: "NEW RIVER OF BLUE" article
        The picture of this event caught my eye. Then after reading the article all I could think of was Phineas T. Barnum saying, "There’s a sucker born every minute." The man-made global warming group has successfully brainwashed our youth and a lot adults in believing in an outright lie and deception!
        Even when the evidence is not what they claim, they continue to terrorize people in thinking that some catastrophic event is going to happen, caused by humans, terminating the world! Does this event match the early 1900s global cooling theory of the East Coast covered with a glacier, because of the industrial revolution? Nothing outside of the normal earth’s cycles occurred.
        Now, we are being told of the impending warming because of car, power plant emissions, carbon dioxide is bad for us as examples. But we are required to disregard the bogus numbers, the faulty data, the lack of intelligent debate and restructure our lives to fit the caveman style. [mjh: Where is the intelligent debate *from* the Deniers?]
        While those believers get in their big gas-guzzling Land Rovers, old beat-up pickups or SUVs, fly in their private or public aircraft and have more electronic gadgets than Mr. Gadget, we are the ones required to change our lifestyle for them.
        Man-made climate change or global warming has been proven to be a fraud, hoax, lie and a tool of the self-righteous to put restrictions on everyone but themselves. The riverbed will flow when Mother Nature wants it to, and until then we will just have to wait.

Where is the proof, Mr Thompson? I will not accept Glenn Beck as an authority.
