Laugh of the day – where's that DDT when you really need it?

Over at DeSmog blog, the hilarity from the Daily Bayonet Story earlier today continues.

Gotta love this comment from the DeSmog thread:

It makes me think of DeSmoggers James Hoggan or Richard Littlemore shouting this famous Seinfeld line from Frank Costanza:

              “I won’t tolerate infestation!”

You have to register there at DeSmog Blog and be approved by the powers that be (they don’t let just anybody make angry rants), so any “infestations” are of their own doing.

UPDATE: 9:40AM 2/28 – This post has become the “top post” aka #1 on WordPress blogs worldwide today. This was probably not the sort of attention DeSmog was seeking. Here’s a screencap from my WordPress dashboard:

Gee, I wonder who the real deniers are, eh? 😉 Conspiracy theorists, maybe, but not genuine skeptics.

IANVS???
That SOB that trolls Eric Berger aka Science Guy’s blog spewing BS about AGW? Berger isn’t much of science guy, that’s for sure when I can come up with much better stuff. Watt’s is a much better place when it comes to learning about climate change covering many things, not just CO2 that Berger only seemed to cover and nothing else. I guess I can’t blame him because he works for Houston Chronicle, a well known for its liberal bias so I don’t know for sure what he truly believes in. He claims to be unbiased but who knows?

I’ve never been to DeSmog, and don’t plan on going (I have my own ethical standards to maintain). They can infest themselves all they want–Makes no nevermind to me.

Hmm. I just noticed that Desmogblog was talking about The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future by Senator Inhofe., not Gleick’s scandal. Has anyone read it yet? I am still reading Delinquent Teenager. There are too many books on my list to read though.

“I won’t tolerate infestation!”
and
“I won’t tolerate fenestration either! ( as in openness of a window or door )
Global warming causes swarming?

Now for those who do not take CBC at its word, a great analysis of Tides Canada’s smoke and mirror show:

I went to the Desmog blog for the first time the other day.
Very apocalyptic.
Otherwise, it’s Real Climate for the scientifically and critically challenged.

DeSmog? Never heard of them…

“Smarmy” derives from the 19th Century pejorative “schoolmarm,” typically connoting an obnoxious pendant obsessed with correcting students’ grammatical deficiencies.
In confronting attested physical reality, Warmists in general and self-righteous DeSmoggers in particular suffer recurrent bouts of angst that “things are not what they should be.” Their solution is not to reconsider the Green Gang’s peculating asininities but to mouth small-minded defiance of all objective or even rational criteria.
Absent extraordinarily corrupt, malfeasant political establishments, panhandling warmsters will perforce hurl different epithets. Can’t happen soon enough.

69 votes Gee, considering that co-founder of DeSmog blog James Hoggan is the chair of the DSF should anyone be surprised that professor fruit fly thinks this criminal act is perfectly OK? Compare the $6.4M Heartland Fund versus the tens of billions that have been spent on the CAGW scam and which side is actually winning the war based on the scientific proof, it’s no wonder Suzuki still wets the bed.
Agree Disagree.
This response to the above suzuki article linked by T Rude,pretty well represents the opinion of non-watermelon Canadians.

POWER OF THE WEAKLING
Psychologists have long attributed bad behaviour online to “deindividuation” – the feeling people get when they think they are anonymous.
“Social distance can cause a 55-year-old climate change sceptic with a job and a mortgage to behave like a spastic donkey with strange malicious behaviour,” said Professor James Heathers, of the University of Sydney.

So skeptics are the only ones that show “social distance” and act like a “spastic donkey”.
Bias’d reporting and statements from Universities are the cause of alarmist having a “holier than thou” syndrome and feel that committing federal offenses is acceptable for the “cause”.
I do hope one day it will change.

Bummer… Apparently I’ve been blocked at deSmugBlog. No reason to go back there again I guess.

Sad to see this from a prof at my old uni. And an unfortunate analogy: he should read his classics.

For those times when “mental midget’s” and even “lower than pond scum” are still giving too much credit … “mental midges” works just right 😉
