Monckton on Glenn Beck Today

http://anhonestclimatedebate.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/monckton.jpgYou won’t want to miss Lord Christopher Monckton (Former advisor to UK Prime Minister Thatcher) on Glenn Beck  – Today Friday, October 30th!

Monckton as many WUWT readers know, is a prominent skeptic and has been making presentations around the USA at college campuses, similar to what Al Gore does. Monckton recently criticized the Copenhagen Treaty and the potential for President Obama to sign it as possibly ceding US sovereignty to the UN on the issue.

Times below:

Monckton will be on Fox News Glenn Beck Show, with former UN Ambassador John Bolton, for the full hour. The topic will be all aspects of the Global Warming Scare and the push for a “new world order” to “deal” with it.

Expect fireworks!

Pingo (10:06:55) :
As requested up above, can the American visitors to this website please let us know where we can see this in the UK once it has been aired. It says it all that Monckton has to travel the Atlantic in order to get out the truth.

You can find his shows here, sorted by weeks.

I find Beck refreshing – an unabashed civilian U.S. patriot. He better not stand in front of Lou Dobbs, however. Bolton’s insights into the UN are also very necessarily enlightening and sometimes tremendously humorous. Monckton (as each of them can, to be sure) can ably speak for himself.
SCIENCE vs. POLITICS? Come on, many of us here have worked in Gov./Sci. – do we need to take a poll on this?
It is also the highest ideal to delve exclusively in any specific indulgence in isolation from any distractions, but ideals have ways of being compromised realistically sooner, or later. Anthony, et al handles this blog splendidly – check the activity. He doesn’t allow too much of a dilution, but can anyone argue that we are not in a crucial time regarding the reputation of Science, worldwide and historically?
Critically important is to get as many of the most active, directly related scientists to openly relate scientifically objective climate science to the masses. Widely promoted open debate by authorities on climate science would be fantastic, if both sides would show up.
In the mean time the demeaned AGW “skeptical” position needs to have any representatives who are willing to challenge the established Gov./Media AGW dominators and take the inevitable hits. While an increasing number of terrific objective/”skeptic” scientists have done this from day one I believe one of the best debaters has been the sun (I’ve much to learn regarding the causes and cycling of ocean heat loss/capacity).
AGW Alarmism momentum has been impeded slightly and affords us an opportunity to protect the future reputation of Science by publicizing objectivity as ideally as possible through free, open, authoritative debate. If it takes Bolton, Monckton and Beck to further “break the ice” and reach the a larger audience, so be it. All of us need to take advantage of the opportunity to publicly object to Science being hi-jacked by AGWA in order to save the reputation of objective Science.
Beware and enjoy what may shortly have been the widest practiced indulging of free speech in history. Let’s hope our kids can at least have that to enjoy as they strive to correct our folly.

Hatred has no place in the arena of scientific thought. So what if you don’t like Glen Beck? Is that any reason to say “I’m taking my ball and going home!”?, or calling him names because you hold a different political view? I have never heard him tell a lie, or try to deceive anyone. He shines lots of light on liars and deceivers, so I guess that is why many of their supporters (whaterver their political beliefs) don’t like him.
Do you honestly believe that if conservative talk programs refuse to inverview conservative thinkers like Monckton, that the liberal talk programs will? (If you do, then I have a bridge for sale in Brooklyn.)

I don’t know if anyone else caught this yet, but apparently a video of Glenn Beck’s interview with Lord Monckton is already posted on the SPPI web site: http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/videos/glenn_beck_interviews_lord_monckton_on_climate_treaty_parts_1_&_2.html

I’ll throw my 2 cents in …. Glenn Beck is a Libertarian, and if you’ve ever heard his views on Climate, they are pretty much in line with any scientists who believes science should rule over poltics. He doesn’t ascribe to “consensus” science, nor does he believe a poltical body has the authority in matters of science [a.k.a., IPCC].
A lunatic … yeah .. I’ll give you that … a “right winger” … nope. A person willing to allow all views to be heard, including those of Mockton .. absolutely!!

Charlie (Colorado) (11:19:45) :
A quick note from Pedants Я Us: I believe that’s properly “Christopher Lord Monckton”.

Actually, his full name is “Christopher, Third Viscount Monckton of Brenchley.” That is according to his biography on the SPPI web site.

Well I listened to Beck when he was on radio, before he ever got on TV at CNN and Faux. I couldn’t listen to him very long at a time. He’s an alcoholic, wore womens panties to avoid military service… wait, that was Shawn Hannity. It was Rush Limbaugh who had the boil on his tushie.
He did describe seeing Michael Moore’s dying eyes while he choked the life out of him. He also pledged to poison Nancy Pelosi and regularly tries to fire up the woo woo extremists to… oh I don’t know… maybe assassinate Obama. He once talked of committing suicide after doing these things.
I’m a Nader/Baldwin voter, so I can look objectively at both sides of the CFR tools. Michael is correct, and only a few men like Rupert Murdock and Soros own basically all of the media.
Maybe Beck will threaten the life of Al Gore, have a nervous breakdown and finally be committed to the mental institution where he belongs.

40 Shades of Green (10:25:32) :
“Methinks that Glenn Beck’s heartland and southern audience won’t appreciate an attack on a perfectly normal southern accent.
And this coming from a Lord with the Plummiest accent I have ever come across”.
That’s exactly why it is so funny and it’s the reason he can afford it to make a joke about it. It’s called “British Humor” and believe me, they are famous for it around the world. As there are at least 40 shades of green, there are 40 shades of humor too.
I for myself look at the content of the message and if the message is clear and and well understood by the receiver. Well, I think we could not do better.
Moncton is a top scorer, virtually unbeatable in any dispute, interview or presentation.
I am glad we have him at our side.

” rbateman (11:23:13) :
I have watched Glen Beck recently, the last 2 weeks. He is not a journalist per se, and will tell you so. He does have a news network behind him with plenty of journalists to do the digging.”
That is a fantastic observation. It brings a question to my mind.
What constitutes a “journalist”? A “journalist” is supposed to search and dig deep for information with the goal of finding out and publishing exactly what happened with regard to any given event. Right?
Are there any “journalists” in the MSM that do that? Or do they put into their stories only the information that soothes their own points of view?
Think about this: Has there ever been a published news story that you have first hand information about that the published account got partially or completely wrong?
And if you pointed out the error…where did they print the retraction…if they printed one at all?
Most of us out here in the world do more digging and information seeking than these “journalists”.

I have no respect for anything related to that hack Glenn Beck. You lost me here Anthony.

In case you haven’t noticed yet this is not about Glenn Beck but what Lord Monckton has to say…ah btw ‘Hi, Welcome back’ when u return back from the lost-lands.

Glenn Beck isnt the best air personality, but he has a huge audience and growing. While the rest of the media tried to cover up or sit on huge stories related to abuses of government and tax dollars, he reported them and is being rewarded with a big, mainstream audience.
His shows are too slow to be interesting, but the rest of the media isn’t doing the job and that has emboldened the government even further, so he will continue to gain popularity by exposing government abuses.
This is a very good thing for exposure to the debate.

Yes, you are quite correct. Next time I’ll actually open the link and see what’s in there before I open my big mouth.

John Bunt (10:15:34) :
“For the foreigners out there, in the US the left wing socialist/Marxists identify anyone who does not agree with them as right wing radicals”.
The road to power Socialists and Marxists take, defined by history is the road of chaos.
First make the public scared by shaking up the very basis of their existence, than create a few incidents (if possible bloody ones) and make the power grab when people are confused and distracted.
Obama is skilled in all facets of the “revolutionary process and approach” and so are most of his Czars.

You gave no link to your ‘quote’. Why didn’t you want to reveal where you got it from?
You played the race card. Why do that?
You make yourself look suspect. You can’t blame anyone else for that.

also, I have watched Monckton’s presentation and I think it will go over extremely well on Beck’s show and for his audience. His dismissive humor is perfect for this kind of show.

Gene Nemetz (11:52:49) :
He got the “quote” from here: http://www.quantcast.com/glennbeck.com
I’d never heard of this site though it looks like something that someone in the industry(MSM) would use frequently.
Interesting about the low female turnout for the ratings demographics. I wonder how many of those females that don’t listen simply don’t have the time in the mornings due to family considerations.
I’d listen to the full show if it were later in the day. My mornings are usually filled with the chaos of housework. Yeah, stereotypical, I know….
I usually delight in mocking people by saying in a whiny voice “but I’m just a GIRL”.
Usually right after I’ve fixed an appliance or built a piece of furniture…. 😉

dgregg (08:44:12) :
This is disappointing. I thought that this site was more interested in actual science than politics.

dgregg, as long as AGW is 100% politics-driven, we skeptics have a responsibility to deal with it head on, especially in pointing out its hypocritical and scandalous ($1 to Lucy) use of “science.”

“You guys watch Glen Beck!! Crikey!”
These sorts of comments could equally apply to shows on ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, NPR…
Why not do something novel – actually watch the program and make up your own mind (that’s what I’m going to do). Then again, perhaps your mind is already made up…
