The Return of KAOS

On one of the morning news shows today they were doing an interview with Daryl Hannah. The hosts are in New York and Ms Hanna is in a studio in Washington DC. As with most interviews of this type the interviewee is sitting in front of a window (or a projection of a window - the miracle of technology) to show the beauty of the city's skyline or some such.

Daryl Hannah was in DC to attend the big protest against carbon emissions - advertised as the biggest ever- to specifically target the coal-fired electrical generating plant that supplies capitol hill. Oddly enough (as in the recent past) this little " get together" was undermined by a whopping snowstorm - one bad enough to stop Nancy Pelosi and other dignitaries (LOL what dignity - they sold theirs out long ago) from attending because the airports were closed.

So Ms Hannah sits in front of a shot of the DC Mall and the capitol building covered in the white stuff that falls from the skies and tries to defend the concept of Global Warming. It is too funny. And in defending she becomes (like so many of her ilk) defensive and deflective. But that's to be expected from most liberals. Their mantra? When challenged - challenged the challenger. When a question can't be answered - deflect the question or change the subject.

Has anyone noticed (I'm sure you have - brilliant readers) that the movement has morphed? It started out as Global Warming and when it was irrefutably demonstrated that some places were actually getting cooler it became Climate Change. But today I heard from Ms Hannah's lips the next incarnation Climate Chaos. Because (she said) "The climate really is in chaos."

After I quit laughing I could appreciate the alliterative nature of the terminology. But the other thing that came to mind was, due to the sheer silliness of what she and her companeros were trying to sell, was an old TV series. So from now on from me it will be (in honor of good ol' Maxwell Smart) Klimate KAOS. After all KAOS was a nefarious organization of dubious intelligence that was bent on destroying the American way of life. I will heretofore refer to the members of this group as the Klimate KAOS Kowboys (and Kowgirls or Kowpersons for the PC) or "Triple K".

I have said this before but it bears repeating. I don't care if you are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Shinto, or Taoist - if you take away the concept of some kind of "higher power" in the universe then you have only two choices left. The first being that everything is totally random and there is nothing anyone can do to change anything. While this idea - on one level - appeals to
liberals they must ultimately reject it because it states there is nothing anyone can do to change anything. The second choice, therefore, is the one they must embrace - that all problems in our world are man made and, if so, man can fix them. Unfortunately (like many liberal tacks) this is the most dangerous of all courses. This brings into effect the law of unintended consequences. This usually means that by thinking they can fix things or make them better they will inevitably make them worse - often with extremely dire outcomes.

I am longing for Maxwell Smart (the Don Adams incarnation not the poor imitation by Steve Carell) to come and thwart the new (Klimate) KAOS and its Kowbowys - led by the laughable (but nonetheless deadly) Algorski. Unfortunately Don Adams is no longer with us. Most people don't know this but Don Adams was actually the alter ego of Tennessee Tuxedo instead of the other way around. Tennessee and his ever present companion, Chumley, were purported to have died on an ice floe that broke off the antarctic due to (then) Global Warming. However after much investigation I have found out they were actually kidnapped from their oceanfront condo in Delray Beach Florida and dumped on the floe by agents of KAOS in order to create more support for their cause.

In ending I have a a few suggestions and one last observation.

The suggestions are for the "Triple Ks". First, see if you can steal that Cone of Silence from the, quite probably unguarded, warehouse where all of the CONTROL (now defunct) gadgets are stored. It would be useful for many of your members but I think you might want it permanently left over the head of Joe Biden.

Second, I would try to find more erudite spokespeople than Ms Hannah. When questioned she said that yes she was returning to LA from DC by train to save on carbon emissions. When the interviewer said he hoped she had something to help pass the time on that long trip she said, "It really doesn't take as long as you think. I'm pretty sure I'll only be on the train for one full day."
Well since the trip (connecting through Chicago or New Orleans) must be between 2,800 and 3,200 miles that must be one fast hummer of a train.

Third, if you are going to schedule conferences, meetings, or protests, you might want to look at places along the atlantic coast of Florida or along the gulf coasts of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, or Texas during hurricane season. Then if you have to cancel due to weather you could make the argument it was actually caused by global warming, climate change, or climate chaos. Even though it would be an erroneous argument it would get plenty of play on the msn (main stream media).

As for the observation. Maybe these "Inconvenient Snowstorms" are a message from the Man Upstairs that no matter what you think the climate is not in chaos it is only marching to the beat of His Cosmic Drum - and even given all your arrogance you can't alter the tune or the cadence.
