We applaud Chris Mooney of ScienceProgress.com for calling Will out - and thereby calling out the ENTIRE COWARDLY, LYING POST - for YET ANOTHER episode of George Will's LYING, devoid of truth-or-substance "Global Warming is a Myth" tripe:
<< On February 15, as he has done many times in the past, George Will of The Washington Post wrote a HOWLER-FILLED COLUMN about global warming. The gist echoed a point Will has often made: Environmentalist doomsayers like to scare us, but they’re often flat wrong. To this end, the article contained a head-scratchingly long and pseudo-referenced paragraph, making the-oft refuted claim that during the 1970s, the scientific community was convinced that “global cooling” had arrived. In reality, while a few scientists were indeed worried about cooling at the time, and some journalists wrote alarmist stories about the subject, there was no consensus like there is today about human caused global warming.
...In essence, then, a number of Will’s claims—about “global cooling,” sea ice, and the WMO—were EITHER FLATLY FALSE, or extraordinarily MISLEADING, whether due to DISHONESTY, IGNORANCE, or some combination of both. This wasn’t necessarily new for Will, any more than it is new for a number of other conservative columnists or pundits who write about global warming.
...IF the Post editorial page CAN'T even print CORRECT facts about global warming (or correct already printed errors), then how to make the case that we still need these hallowed gray newspapers to police our society and discourse? >>

Unlike Mr. Mooney, we here at MediaWhoresSUSA do not hold a SHRED of respect for the Washington Post (or their partners in journalistic atrocities and national misinformation crimes, the New York Slimes).
They have been AT THE CENTER of EVERY right-wing ATROCITY of the past two decades, from
#1. BETRAYING America's promise to Eastern Europe to "DEFEND FREEDOM & DEMOCRACY" after the collapse of the Cold War (America's "conservative" foreign policy establishment sat on their hands as Yugoslavia devolved into a grisly ethnic cleansing bloodbath. By contrast, Germany helped Slovenia secede bloodlessly in 3 weeks flat); to -
#2. Helping Neo-Cons GUT International Law and especially NUCLEAR NON-PROLIFERATION TREATIES; to -
#3. helping Republicans MAKE LIES UP to hound the Clinton administration, including turning the Clinton's overnight guest list into the so-called "LINCOLN BEDROOM 'SCANDAL'"
(fast foward half-a-decade, the TREACHEROUS right-wing WaPost could NOT even BOTHER to find out HOW MANY TIMES CONVICTED BRIBER-of-CONGRESS JACK ABRAMOFF.. VISITED THE BUSH-CHENEY White House!!
...much less what the HELL they talked about;
much less what male gay prostitute JEFF GANON was doing in the White House those late nights after the "regular" DC press corps whores had departed);
#4. The Washington Post HELPED REPUBLICANS make "the WHITEWATER SCANDAL" look like the BIGGEST PART of the SAVINGS & LOAN HUNDREDS-of-BILLIONS of scandals (halpess Jim McDougal's Madison Guarantee S&L lost $22 million, and he died in prison for it) - thereby, by PUSHING A REAL ACCOUNTING of the S&L crisis OUT of the news, the WASHINGTON POST _ENABLED_ the NEXT ROUND of PHIL GRAMM DEREGULATION - which, sure enough, the Washington ESTABLISHMENT supported GRAMM-LEACH-BLILEY bill has led DIRECTLY to THIS, Bush-TWO RECESSION!!
#5. LEGITIMIZING STOLEN ELECTION 2000;
#6. ENABLING the Karl Rove/Ari Fleischer/Bush-Cheney public LYNCHING of Clinton-Gore White House Staffers ACCUSED of "TRASHING" (VANDALIZING) White House Property - for WEEKS ON END, WITHOUT ONE PHOTOGRAPH of Evidence!!!
#7. We haven't even gotten to 9-11 and the COVER-UP of DERELICTION OF DUTY, or
#8. the TREASONOUS ANTHRAX ATTACKS,
#9. or LIES-to-WAR, or
#10. the treasonous OUTING of an ENTIRE CIA Undercover operation as means of RETRIBUTION against an outspoken war-critic whistleblower;
#11. the MISSING BILLIONS from Iraq war occupation,
#12. the LOOTED Al Qaaqa massive munitions dump - AS IAEA inspectors, in BOTH Iraq AND Washington, WERE BEGGING the US DoD to CONTROL the KNOWN ammunition complex; which explosives went STRAIGHT TO American-GI killing insurgents;
#13. the LOOTING OF BAGHDAD;
#14. the ABU GHRAIB TORTURE scandal WHITEWASH, and WORSE!
#15. Nazi/Soviet style KANGAROO COURTS for FEMALE volunteer PRIVATES - accused ONLY of "Abuse" - WHILE the Post & Times SUPPORTED & APPROVED the Cheney-Bush administration's assertions of UNLIMITED, OPEN-ENDED "right" to TORTURE PRISONERS TO DEATH, at their sole discretion, and with NO OVERSIGHT FROM ANYONE
(except for the public spectacle of FEMALE PRIVATES Convicted in a PUBLIC kangaroo-court LYNCHING, AS IF those women would have had a PRAYER had they REFUSED ORDERS);
#16. the LOOTING of the US TREASURY and the FRAUDULENT "PUMP and DUMP", using Fed Reserve "liquidity injections" to ARTIFICIALLY BOOST STOCK PRICES, SUCKING UNWARY victims, investors, and pensioners into the VASTLY OVER-INFLATED MARKETS;
#17. the CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE to OVERSEE SECURITIES FRAUD,
#18. the FAILURE to do ANYTHING to bolster America's drowning mortgage holders;
#19. the FAILURE to INVESTIGATE Vice President CHENEY'S CONFLICTS OF INTEREST in HALLIBURTON CONTRACTS,
#20. the FAILURE to INVESTIGATE Bush Treasury Secretary HANK PAULSON's CONFLICTS OF INTEREST BAILING OUT his "FORMER" company, GOLDMAN-SACHS, with BILLIONS of taxpayer dollars;
#21. the FAILURE to INVESTIGATE Dick Cheney's PURCHASE of ANOTHER WAR in GEORGIA (with BILLIONS of US taxpayer dollars given to democracy-protest-crushing dictator Saakashvili, no strings or oversight allowed) -
Clearly, at EVERY STEP OF THE WAY, the ATROCIOUS EDITORS, writers, & Publisher of the Washington Post have been at GROUND ZERO of EVERY RIGHT-WING ATROCITY of the past two decades... and under the Post & Times MALIGNANT "oversight" - AMERICA CAN'T EVEN RUN A SENATE ELECTION in Minnesota, TENS of MILLIONS of dollars of Republican "HEVA" "help America Vote" BIG GOVERNMENT SPENDING not-with-standing!
GOT THAT?! Under the HORRIFIC Washington Post's RIGHT-WING AGENDA, not only can their LYING EDITOR not even find a picture of a MELTING GLACIER, but America CAN'T EVEN RUN COMPETENT ELECTIONS anymore!
The Washington Post is a JOURNALISTIC DISGRACE, and a clear and present THREAT to world peace, freedom, and economic vitality.
(note: JUST KEEPING UP with the Post's COWARLDY TRIPE and SERIAL LIES, is like being assigned a job to SCRUB A CESSPIT, while it is STILL FULL OF s***!)
