1 Ann Coulter's "THE COMING ASS AGE" is more accurate than 99% of the climate reporting in the NYT, Newsweek, Time, the MSM in general--- domestic and foreign, etc. Did I miss the part where she has dinosaurs dining with/on humans? Or her theories on a flat Earth? Scientifically speaking, what the other side is saying makes the flatEarthers look profound. Okay, maybe Ann could have said it this way..."Al Gore likes to present himself as a tribune of science, warning the world of imminent danger. But he is more like an Old Testament prophet, calling on us to bewail our wrongful conduct and to go and sin no more. He starts off with the science. The world's climate, he reports, is getting warmer. This accurate report is, however, not set in historic context. World climate has grown warmer and cooler at various times in history. Climate change is not some unique historic event. It is the way the world works." (Michael Barone, New York Sun). But then, it wouldn't be Ann. "Environmentalists and globalization foes are united in their fear that greater population and consumption of energy, materials, and chemicals accompanying economic growth, technological change and free trade—the mainstays of globalization—degrade human and environmental well-being. Indeed, the 20th century saw the United States’ population multiply by four, income by seven, carbon dioxide emissions by nine, use of materials by 27, and use of chemicals by more than 100. Yet life expectancy increased from 47 years to 77 years. Onset of major disease such as cancer, heart, and respiratory disease has been postponed between eight and eleven years in the past century. Heart disease and cancer rates have been in rapid decline over the last two decades, and total cancer deaths have actually declined the last two years, despite increases in population. Among the very young, infant mortality has declined from 100 deaths per 1,000 births in 1913 to just seven per 1,000 today." (Indur M. Goklany, Reason)

2 You know what, D?--that just happened to be on her front page, which I linked. I guess I should have been clearer: I was just linking her site as a courtesy. GW happened to be up top. Sorry!
