RUSH: I see this story, and then I realize: We have a lot of new listeners here, a tremendous number of new listeners. We officially know this now. It\u2019s beyond commonsense supposition. We now know. Because of accurate records, we know. That\u2019s as much as I can legally say. But we know. We know it\u2019s huge, the new listener number. Well, I have a story here that if everybody in the audience was up to speed and in total context with how things happen in this program, I would approach it a certain way.<\/p>\n
Now, what I want to do is ask you to stop for a moment and really think about that. You know that there\u2019s all kinds of arguments going on about global warming, and you\u2019ve heard probably (I\u2019m speaking to you people that are new in the audience) all the claims that it\u2019s the cars that we drive. It\u2019s the greenhouse gases! It seems like every day there\u2019s a new claim, something humanity is doing to destroy the planet. Yet we\u2019ve also learned that it\u2019s a total hoax. If you\u2019re new to the program, I don\u2019t have time to go back and repeat years of programming.<\/p>\n
But e-mails leaked from the University of East Anglia in the UK conclusively show how data was altered and faked to produce results that showed man was responsible for global warming when he wasn\u2019t. The stuff was made up. We know that they have tried every scare tactic in the world to convince people that they are responsible for the climate being destroyed, or the world warming up. Now, we know that the reason for this is they\u2019re trying to capitalize on people\u2019s emptiness in their lives. Most people don\u2019t think their lives mean anything and they want to have meaning in their lives.<\/p>\n
So the left very cleverly comes along and says, “You know what? You can save the planet!”<\/p>\n
“Whoa! Wow! Now my life is gonna have meaning. Ho! Sign me up.”<\/p>\n
“Yeah, well, you have to admit that you have been the problem. With all the gasoline that you\u2019ve used and all the coal that you\u2019ve burned and the electricity you\u2019ve used, you\u2019ve contributed. But there\u2019s atonement for you. If you buy little cars that we tell you to buy, if you go along with raising taxes, if you have more government control — forget about all the traditional forms of energy and let\u2019s go windmills and solar panels — you\u2019re fine.”<\/p>\n
And people say, “Oh, good! Okay, I\u2019ll buy a Prius, or I\u2019ll buy an electric car.”<\/p>\n

Consensus equals majority thought. Science is not subject to opinion. Scientific fact is fact. The earth is round not because a consensus of scientists think it is but because it\u2019s round! I want you to actually stop and consider this report, serious as it can be in the New York Daily News, that dinosaur farts and burps have contributed to global warming and their own extinction. And I want to ask you if you really believe that. I want you to stop and I want you to very seriously consider the proposition that there aren\u2019t any dinosaurs because their own flatulence wiped \u2019em out.<\/p>\n
They farted themselves to death and, in the process, they destroyed the planet, their own habitat. They caused global warming by burping and expelling gas so much, they destroyed their own habitat. I want to ask you: Does this pass the smell test? I just want you to use your common sense. I could do an Environmentalist Wacko Update here. I could do the usual: Make fun of it. But then I might distract from the actual point being made for those of you not up to speed and context with how we do things on this program.<\/p>\n
Because, see, the point is, this is ridiculous. This is literally insane. It\u2019s ridiculous. It\u2019s absurd. It is one of the most stupid assertions I have encountered in 25-plus years of deep study of the environmental wacko movement. Does it pass the smell test? The dinosaurs farted themselves to death, and at the same time burped themselves to death — and then after all that, caused global warming, which is really what did them in. Then, I want you to ask yourself this: Why is it that it has not yet been asserted that we humans are farting ourselves to death?<\/p>\n

The author of that study is claiming that it\u2019s now being taken out of context and he never claimed that dinosaur emissions caused global warming or their own extinction. He says their emissions were a minor factor, but he is still claiming their methane emissions equal those that are produced today. So apparently the reaction to the study has been one of, “Are you kidding me?” So the guy said, “Hey, I didn\u2019t say what is being reported as being said.” The point is, the environmentalist wacko movement, there are people that believe in this kind of stuff, they make bets on it, and it\u2019s as ridiculous as most other claims they\u2019re making about manmade global warming.<\/p>\n
