Letters to the Editor,
Broomfield Enterprise, reply to Op/Ed piece, 4-18-07, from Solson:
I would like to respond to Vic Boccard, your resident right-wing fanatic. A few of his MOST OBVIOUS mistakes include, but are not limited to; "Few can deny that the environmental movement is the modern home of the socialist movement." WOW. If that doesn't imply skewed reasoning, I don't know what does. According to Vic, concern about the environment=socialist. He then says, " What I'd like to see is an honest, open debate between scientists who believe in global warming and those who do not." Well Vic, if you weren't so factually, as well as chronologically challenged, you'd know that those truly in the scientific community, NOT counting politicians, are well over 10-1 in the "Yes, global warming is REAL" camp. Unless you get all your news from FOX, global warming isn't even debatable. Look at every graph, every scientific temperature measurement and it is OBVIOUS the earth is warming Ten of the hottest years EVER recorded have been in the last twelve years. That is FACT, not opinion. What IS opinion, is WHY. And, what can we do? That is when the political questions arise. But, to hear someone like you, claim anyone who recognizes that the earth is warming is a socialist, or worse, ON THE LEFT, you do a disservice to old fogies everywhere. And I can say that, because I AM one, just not of the "fact deflecting skull" variety, like you. And please, no more articles praising George's War in Iraq.
