Is it just the Ivy league universities that have rejected a logical and empirical reality and moved into the subjective fictional world of emotional agendas? I’d say it’s the majority of academia!

Gore and Obama are Ivy League examples. It’s quite something to watch Obama perform, as he did at the Republican televised meeting the other day. The questions were supposed to be short and above all,no follow-up questions. This of course resulted that anything Obama said could not be held accountable by further questions.

Equally, the AGW and Gore crowd have set themselves up in a similar fashion of unaccountability by cloaking themselves in a cocoon of what we now know is false data. False data that is protected from exposure by that cloak of ‘science’.

It’s fascinating to watch how these two, Gore and Obama operate. Both set up apocalyptic scenarios. Both self-define their agenda as Savior. And both utterly reject and ignore reality and focus on the narrative of a fictional world whose content they MUST entirely control. Any unwelcome content is rejected with smears or ignored.

Gore’s is the meltdown of the planet, a situation caused by ‘the Evil Ones’ who are greedy and wealthy, a scenario ignoring reality, relying on false data, but propped up by the emotional agenda of ‘saving purity’.

Obama’s is the collapse of the USA – a situation which he claims was caused by ‘the Evil One’ (not Ones), and all he is trying to do is ‘fix the mess’. Any of his own invalid predictions (8% vs over 10% unemployment) are caused by ‘the inadequate data the Evil One left me”..and so on. And, he rattles off all kinds of false data (millions of jobs saved, putting people to work)…

Claims he’s ‘read the Republican Health care proposals’..(so what? Tell us why you reject them!)- which is an example of his controlling the fictional narrative.

Both Gore and Obama reject reality and rely on words to create their own fictional world. Obama renames terrorism as ‘man-caused disasters’ and poof – terrorism disappears.

The problem with this type of virtual world agenda is that reality has an insistent style. It will continue to knock at your door despite your refusal to answer.
