Our Junk Science expert, author of Green Hell, and columnist Steve Milloy reports that the Democratic Party has received an advisory from one of their many advisory firms indicating in a committee report that the trendy set is now like so over the word “Green” (the firm stated that fact making it sound like a question at the end, because that’s still in). And they’re like saying that “global warming” used to be like so awesome, but now it’s like a skizl to the whizzle (also see “groady to the max” or “yeah that was so two elections ago”), you know what I’m sayin’?
Possibly also kaput: Paris Hilton saying “that’s so hot”. And Jack Layton saying “we matter”.
Skeptics beating Al Gore: Dem advisors say drop global warming as lead message
June 22, 2009
A public relations firm advising Democrats on climate legislation says that global warming alarmism needs to be dropped.
According to a memo from Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research, global warming should not be used as the “primary frame”:
Awareness about global warming is broad, and some in the public are seriously concerned about it. But almost no one in our groups expressed such concern; for most voters, global warming is not significant enough on its own to drive support for major energy reform. So while it can be part of the story that reform advocates are telling, global warming should be used only in addition to the broader economic frame, not in place of it.
Now you know why the skeptics were more than delighted to have Al Gore as the leading messenger for global warming alarmism.
BTW, the Greenberg Quinlan Rosner [report] also notes that the term “green” should be dropped:
“Green” is meaningless or confusing — the term “clean” resonates with voters.
So does this mean that Steve Milloy will need to re-title his new book “Clean Hell“?
In other news, the New Democratic Party will change their name to “D’oh!”.
