Art Robinson runs for Congress
Art Robinson was among the first real scientists to fight the Global Warming Cult. He's been toiling in this field for more than 20 years, along with running an independent biochem lab dealing with human aging and metabolism.
Now that the force of truth against the Carbon Cult has finally taken on a life of its own, Robinson has decided to run for Congress against Peter DeFazio in his home area of Oregon. Here's his initial statement:
His ideology is closer to Ron Paul libertarians than I'd like, but the Paul approach seems to be popular now with college-age folks, who can energize a campaign. I've been following and supporting Robinson's efforts for quite a while and I'd love to see him become the sole spokesman for honest science in the House, just as Inhofe is in the Senate.
(It would be even better to have more than one honest man in each house, but that's waaaaaaaaaaaay too much to expect. The saving grace: Truth has a miraculous way of infecting a place from just one carrier. With no carriers at all, Truth has no chance at all.) ¶ 1:51 PM
Now that the force of truth against the Carbon Cult has finally taken on a life of its own, Robinson has decided to run for Congress against Peter DeFazio in his home area of Oregon. Here's his initial statement:
The citizens of Oregon District 4 are today in danger of being without incomes, without jobs, without homes, and without the freedom, prosperity, and way of life that America has previously provided.
The federal government is nearing bankruptcy and the Oregon government is scrambling to survive, while citizens see their savings dwindle, their home prices plunge, their budgets contract, and their employers endangered.
Why have these problems come upon us? Why are we unable to produce 100% of our energy instead of buying 30% from unstable foreign sources? Why have our industries moved abroad? Why are our brave young soldiers quartered in more than 100 foreign countries and constantly involved in foreign wars? Why are our industries, including our health care system, in danger of government takeover?
The answer is in Washington, where the federal government has abandoned Constitutional principles and gradually imposed crushing taxation, overwhelming bureaucratic regulation and control, and vast government-sponsored litigation upon the once free American people - burdens so great that their hard work and ingenuity can no longer provide the economic freedom and prosperity they once enjoyed.
These burdens must be rolled back. The career politicians in Washington, including the Deomcrate from District 4 who has helped to impose those burdens, should be replaced. Art Robinson is a respected scientist, educator, businessman, and 30-year resident of Oregon with the knowledge and ability to protect and restore our freedoms.
His ideology is closer to Ron Paul libertarians than I'd like, but the Paul approach seems to be popular now with college-age folks, who can energize a campaign. I've been following and supporting Robinson's efforts for quite a while and I'd love to see him become the sole spokesman for honest science in the House, just as Inhofe is in the Senate.
(It would be even better to have more than one honest man in each house, but that's waaaaaaaaaaaay too much to expect. The saving grace: Truth has a miraculous way of infecting a place from just one carrier. With no carriers at all, Truth has no chance at all.) ¶ 1:51 PM
