The Left Is Nothing More Than A Temper-Tantrum-Throwing Child

An obstinate refusal to accept reality is the hallmark of children. And that's perfectly okay, because they have half-formed brains and they are learning to navigate the complex logical rules that govern life. In fact, sometimes it's loads of fun, as the parents reading this post can attest.

I noticed in this morning's NYT an article about how complex flood zone mapping can be, because a difference of a few feet has profound financial implications for those involved, including the taxpayer. But embedded in the article was a typical NYT throwaway line about Global-WarmingTM.

New York will be the first major metropolis to be remapped taking into account the realities of climate change, like rising sea levels and increasingly powerful storms.

Except...climate change is far from reality, and the NYT refuses to entertain the notion that it is not settled science. Completely and totally. It simply rejects the idea that maybe, just maybe it isn't a fait accompli.

For the purposes of discussion I would even grant that the hair-on-fire projections of the alarmists are a possibility, and that the maps should recognize a range of future sea levels and storm strength. But any scientist, or for that matter any rational human being would intuitively, immediately understand that we should look at both sides of a far-from-settled scientific issue.

Yet the NYT stamps its feet and holds its breath and insists that in spite of no data that support its supposition, it is nonetheless true. Just like a five-year-old.

The only problem is that we can't send the NYT to its room without dinner. Or smack it on its spoiled, entitled, lily-White ass.
