Watch Out - Now Global Warming Is A Security Matter...

Climate Change Seen as Threat to U.S. Security - NYTimes.com: "WASHINGTON — The changing global climate will pose profound strategic challenges to the United States in coming decades, raising the prospect of military intervention to deal with the effects of violent storms, drought, mass migration and pandemics, military and intelligence analysts say."

...a growing number [growing from 1 to 3? ;-)]of policy makers say that the world’s rising temperatures, surging seas and melting glaciers are a direct threat to the national interest.

[comment in brackets mine]

...And we know how much the left cares about national security. This might be a potent argument for crap and trade except that:

1) evidence points more strongly to us being in a global cooling than a global warming
2) a warmer planet is a richer planet
3) no serious link has been made between global warming and "violent storms"
4) even if there were evidence of 1 and 3, above, you would also have to believe that:
a) man is causing global warming
b) US carbon reductions, though more than offset by massive carbon output increases in the thrid world, will materially impact global warming

We are all nearly consumed with the health care debate. But we need to spend the recess debunking crap and trade as well.
