It's about time he got the Libs aligned on this. (or attempted)

Damn! Sucked in yet again. Oh well, I'll just abandon the laws of physics and all my common sense. If a Daily Telegraph journalist says so, it must be true. ;D |

He obviously supports it, albeit in an amended form from Rudd's legislation. I would have no problem with a carbon tax approach. |

Title: Re: Opposition Leader threatens to resign over ETS Post by sprintcyclist on Oct 1st, 2009 at 3:31pm muso - i have a problem with a carbon tax. if mal is ok with it he has lost my support on that one still, that won't give him many sleepless nights. |

Do you have a problem with paying for your garbage removal too? You might have seen these before. I think he has a good point: http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2009/02/18/2495308.htm http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,25907855-5013871,00.html |

Title: Re: Opposition Leader threatens to resign over ETS Post by sprintcyclist on Oct 1st, 2009 at 3:50pm i think a carbon tax will be totally ineffective for the environment. |

Interesting tactic... he's been pretty useless as leader anyway.
Maybe its time the Nats took the lead. |

Have a look at the graph at Climate Audit (which broke the story and has been so inundated with hits that its server was almost overwhelmed) and see for yourself. http://www.climateaudit.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/rcs_chronologies_rev2.gif The scary red line shooting upwards is the one Al Gore, Michael Mann, Keith Briffa and their climate-fear-promotion chums would like you to believe in. The black one, heading downwards, represents scientific reality. We “Global Warming Deniers” are often accused of ignoring the weight of scientific opinion. Well if the “science” on which they base their theories is as shoddy as Mann’s Hockey Stick, is it any wonder we think they’re talking cobblers? |

Yep. Truss seems to be a decent fellow and Barnaby is a refreshing, straight shooter. Can't see it happening though. Northy. |

Well if the Libs continue on their merry road to nowhere the Nats could well be the senior member of the coalition in the not too distant future. Good on ya for knowing Truss is the leader Northy, a survey done on the streets a couple of weeks ago had over 80% of people thinking it was Barny. |

Climate Audit is a joke. I can't believe they are going on about the so-called Hockey stick graph after so many years. They used invalid data then, and there has been many more studies done since then. It is so lame that they continue to spread the same lies. I've already explained the reasoning behind that particular furfie of McIntyre's in previous posts. What is it about the phrase "lying through his teeth" that you don't understand? This should explain it in simple layman's language: http://www.desmogblog.com/amazing-it-seem-we-still-have-shoot-down-medieval-warming-crock Look, 911 conspiracy theorists periodically announce victory, so why should climate change conspiracy theorists be any different? |

Malcolm Turnbull might not be as bookish as Kevin Rudd, but he has considerable business acumen and for a politician, he's a very decent bloke. What a pity he joined the wrong political party. |

We've been through that many times. Refer to the sticky posts at the top. If there is anything I haven't explained well enough, let me know. Bear in mind that it's just a simplified explanation - it's not the basis of the science. It's not all based on temperature rise, and it's not all based on climate models either. |
