Mark Levin: Environmental movement is primitive. (Ayn Rand's "Return of the Primitive")

Mark Levin has been commenting lately about the Enviros being primitive.
This clip is the first time I believe he used that term.

In later shows, which I unfortunately can not find clips for, he gives attribution to the term "primitive" in this context to "the great writer Ayn Rand."

Ayn Rand mentioned in a Mark Levin rant?
That's great radio.

    Amish, the ultimate environmentalists, and they are not hypocrites!

    Good statements.

    The "morons" are the ones who buy and then recite the talking points of the global warming group, as ML said, "now climate change". Did you ever know climate to not change? Most of those pushing the religious (Gaia worship)/political agenda if climate change have no history of study in science, not a major nor a minor field of study for them. Few ask relevant questions, such as where were the temperature meters for the then global warming assessment - in a brick enclosed courtyard or on some runway? Levin may be "in your face" in his delivery, but the moron label goes elsewhere.

    Maybe CG's from the Pandora of that Avatar movie where primitives worship a moon mother as opposed to an earth goddess. Pandora being a moon.

    The environmental movement is a religion, based on pseudo science. One thing Rand missed is that environmentalism is based on a misunderstanding of the second law of thermodynamics. As a result, this idiots, who usually do not have a strong science background, believe they have science on their side.

    One must always be skeptical when a "scientific finding" supports a political agenda. Global climate dynamics is vastly more complex than the liberals would have us believe and that complexity is far beyond the ability of current technology to analyze. Any predictions are far more likely to be motivated by politics than real science.

    Of course that's a primitive movement. It has its basis in Luddism: abhoring technology for the sake of abhoring technology.

    But also for the sake of control. To make sure only they, and their enforcers, have access to instantanous communication and transportation.

    I thought it was a great illustration of teh movement's group think. and GW believer's are most certainly against technology. The same environmentalists which push policies for "clean energy" are the same ones who pushed policies to not build nuclear power plants (the safest and cleanest choice out there now). In fact-Germany was so influenced by these anti-thinking groups, they agreed to shut down 8 nuclear plants over the last several years only to find their solar and wind farms could not pick up the slack. so now in their "oops" mode-what are they doing? Building coal plants! how's that for going backwards technologically speaking? so, tell us again, how ML is the moron?

    The liberal enclave that is Madison, Wisconsin. Combination of the seat of state government coupled with the largest state university. A double whammy that creates liberal whackos (like CG) that is multiplicative, not merely additive. I've had 2 daughters go to school there and I avoid the place like the plague. Luckily, both have retained common sense sensibilities.

    I doubt that there's a radio station in Madison which carries ML. Thus, it's quite possible that CG has never been exposed to him. He can be an acquired taste, and if you catch him in an acerbic rant, you could assume that that is all there is. But as for being a "moron," that is certainly not the case. He's one of the most intelligent talk show hosts out there.

    I am going to try and give you the benefit of the doubt and say that maybe you have simply been turned off by Mark Levin's delivery style, which some people dislike because he is very aggressive, in your face, and it could be called a rant. However, if you listen to him enough to hear what he is actually saying you will find he is a logical and very intelligent person that, while not a Gulch resident, would agree with us more times than not. He spends almost as much time arguing against the Republican establishment as he does against the Liberals (Of course, that is pretty much true of most of the serious grass roots style Republicans).

    Mark Levin is doing great work on your behalf through his Landmark Legal Foundation.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Levin

    He is a best selling political book writer, and has no problem telling it like it is.

    You never did tell us just what solar system you are beaming your posts from...?

    So there's no hypocrisy in the "green" mouth pieces? There's no primitiveness to it either? Schools aren't indoctrinating?
    Who's the real moron in this room?

    Yes, if that's the guy on the attached audio who spent over a minute wallowing in the tu quoque fallacy before I shut it off.
