Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce you to Christopher Walter Monckton, 3rd Viscount Monckton of Brenchley. The right honourable demagogue of denial, the journalist most often referred to and linked to as the seeker of truth (click on link to find response from one of the few scientists that bothers to respond), defender of freedom from Al Gore:

Lord Christopher Monckton has long had pretensions to power as witnessed when he emailed a climate scientist stating:

“I am a member of the House of Lords, though without the right to sit or vote, and I have never suggested otherwise.”

To which the House of Lords Information Center advises:

Christopher Monckton is not and has never been a Member of the House of Lords. There is no such thing as a “non-voting” or “honorary” member.

Alas, as he was not and has never been a member of the House of Lords, the hereditary peer was free to proceed to seek power to protect the little people by running for a seat in the House of Commons as a candidate for UKIP. He promised his would-be constituents to free British schools from the tyranny of Al Gore by vowing to ban An Inconvenient Truth from all classrooms.  The Lord went on to get ZERO votes.  No, not one of his miserable, wretched and ungrateful would-be constituents dared to vote for the man who would defend them from Al Gore’s tyranny. Slaves, every one of them.

For, of tyranny, the good Lord knows a thing or two, as you can see here in this American Spectator article the good Lord penned himself in 1987:

“. . . there is only one way to stop AIDS. That is to screen the entire population regularly and to quarantine all carriers of the disease for life. Every member of the population should be blood-tested every month … all those found to be infected with the virus, even if only as carriers, should be isolated compulsorily, immediately, and permanently.”

Lord Monckton, in the article he wrote, envisioned that perhaps 3 million Americans would be quarantined for life under his plan and 30,000 of his own little Brits.  I do wonder if he is for banning Al Gore’s work in order to defend us from tyranny, would he not have been for banning oh say Tony Kushner’s work to protect us from those who would dare humanize the victims of AIDS our good Lord Monckton had caged in the US and UK?

Today, Lord Monckton says:

“the article was written at the very outset of the AIDS epidemic, and with 33 million people around the world now infected, the possibility of [quarantine] is laughable. It couldn’t work.”

“Couldn’t work” . . . ha ha ha; ohmygod, that’s soooo laughably funny! Look, I just read m’lord’s quote to Max:

But, m’lord, if say Halliburton were to make it possible that 33 million people could be quarantined . . . would your plan be ‘workable?’

UPDATE:  Lord Monckton was the sole ‘expert’ witness the Republicans called to testify at the May 6, 2010 Select Committee  hearing on “The Foundation on Climate Science”;  note that the Democrats had three scientists testify, not Al Gore and not David deRothschild.  I wonder if the Republicans were unable to get any scientists willing to testify under oath what Lord Monckton was happy to do in order to influence US national policy?  Perhaps they were unwilling to participate in another infamous moment ala:
