Here is a My Turn essay in our local paper this morning written by a local man:

Palin Views Don't Match Reality


"... the conservative push to portray global warming as a hoax perpetrated by liberals and the majority of the world's scientists.

"What motive liberals and scientists would have for doing so is unexplained and inexplicable. Are we all buying stock in windmills so that Palin, riding a rabid elephant, will have a new, crowd-pleasing hallucination to joust with?"

Lisle brings up an important point: What is the motivation for the alarm sounders?
