The global warming alarmists are quite effective, if you believe this report.

Although if you believe this report, you might believe all kinds of things anyway….

Supposedly 1 in 4 kids stays awake at night worrying about Global Warming.  My mom tells a story about her school being infested with termites when she was a child.  She thought from the way that people talked about the school being “eaten” by termites that one day the termites came in, and the next day the school was not there.

This is the simple mind of a child. But when people use childish thinking as a way to bolster the supposed effect of something, they are really using circular reasoning.  Of course kids will worry about global warming! That’s all that’s on the news, and all that they hear in their government funded obedience training all day long, and all that they hear from parents who aren’t really excercising their brains about global warming anyway.

If I started a rumor that there was a giant-fanged man-eating 7 armed demon from the planet Quartzon, and I kept hammering it home, and it was all over the news, and the schools taught it as the gospel, then kids would believe it.  And if they saw what they supposed to be rational, thinking and smart adults running around in fear for their lives, they would be even more frightened.  But if I were to say to you, “see, the kids are scared…the giant-fanged, man-eating 7-armed demon from the planet Quartzon has them awake in their beds at night, so surely he’s having an effect…”  well, you could say that was either very wicked for scaring children, or that I was several rounds short of a full chamber (not firing on all cylinders…ha-ha).

But this is what the global alarmists have said.  “See, the kids are scared! Global warming is even keeping them awake, and there are adults who don’t even have the sense to be scared!”

You can almost hear the Warming Weenies whining, “We made a monster and you’re not scared!”

 Give it a few years, and a few more tax dollars, and a few more graduating classes of kids who are trained to think as they’re told.

We’ll all be losing sleep then.
