I am amazed that Fox News has devoted all of its programming today to the death of the rock star Michael Jackson. This despite the fact that tomorrow the House plans to vote on the carbon cap and trade legislation that will destroy the economy of the United States while accomplishing nothing in terms of the climate change issues the legislation purports to address. It says something bad about America that the death of an aging pop musician is more important to the only objective news agency than the economy of the country. The AGW hypothesis on which the need to control carbon dioxide emissions is based is looking worse to objective analysts all of the time. Of course the Obama Administration, which claims to be putting science back in its proper place, is unwilling to debate the science of the issue. So much for real science. The Administration doesn't care about science; they care about passing what would be the largest tax increase in history.
