In case you missed it, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin called for President Obama to boycott Copenhagen in an op-ed in the Washington Post today. The piece has, predictably, got the blogosphere abuzzboth for what she says and the fact that she got to say it all.
First, Gov. Palins piece takes aim at the Copenhagen climate talks by linking them to the Climategate email scandal, which she says undermines the science behind the meeting in the first place. Then she goes back to familiar ground, arguing that the Obama administrations plan to curb greenhouse-gas emissions will poleax the U.S. economy.
The reactions have been fast and furious. The Huffington Post wonders why Gov. Palin got more space from the WaPo; she did another op-ed critical of the administrations plans recently. That wraps into wider criticism of the Washington Post, where George Will regularly infuriates environmentalists with his dismissals of global warming. More on that fallout over at the Atlantic Wire.
Gov. Palins piece comes in the middle of pushback against the whole idea that the world even needs to reach agreement to curb emissions at Copenhagenand that the U.S. needs to play a leading role.
National Review, for instance, sets out to slay the dragon, as it were: More maddening, this tax-and-spend treaty is a costly solution to an imaginary problem. So-called global warming threatens Earth about as urgently as does the Loch Ness Monster.
