Climate bill showdown: Obama, Dems pressing hard
23 comments | Read story
Scientists are getting off this bandwagon in record numbers. Look at both sides of the issue. I have concluded based on a lot of reading that human causation of global warming is a hoax, based on computer projections, fear mongering, but not science. Man does contribute a small measure of CO2 into the atmosphere, but CO2 does not cause global warming. Rather, when global warming occurs naturally (it is directly related to the activity of the sun), CO2 levels rise. In other words, naturally occurring global warming precedes, not follows, rising CO2 levels. By the way, C02 is only 1.3 percent of all greenhouse gases anyway.
Please study this. Get divergent views and then make up your own mind. Don't just mindlessly follow along as Obama would have us do. If you conclude, as I have, that man made global warming is not supported by good science, then stand up and fight against it. Global warming legislation will merely curtail our freedoms and increase the power of government without having the slightest measurable effect on the global climate.
I love the part about the job creation. I think we are still waiting for all the jobs from the porkulous bill. Taxes and deficit spending do not create jobs. It simply reallocates them so the people who get the government created job know who to thank.
Regardless of party!
Who else gets to buy carbon credits from his own business and then ask taxpayers to pay him for it???
Global warming = money making scam...
If people go to prison for ponzi schemes...they should go to prison for spewing stupidity in the name of global warming!
Energy companies pay people $10,000 a page to write articles attacking climate change. These companies hired the same people who once found experts for the tobacco industry that told us cigarettes don't cause cancer and attempts by government to stop smoking was evil big government. Remember Rush, as he smoked a cigar, railed against smokeless public venues?
I scientist writing peer reviewed articles earns maybe 80k a year. This is after getting a PhD. Remember global cooling? You no longer hear about global cooling because global cooling failed peer review.
Each time I research a conservative accusation against climate change it takes no longer than twenty minutes to disprove it. Like the Oregon list of scientist that included vets and names of people who never placed their name on it. There was a poll of earth scientist where 85% believed climate change is real.
Then, we have fair and balanced Faux News.
This guy is the ultimate magician! We never know what he will pull out of his hat next, but, we do know its going to cost our grandchildren dearly!
The Laugh's on us. Thank you Democratic Party and your Single Party Control!
The only thing static about the weather is that it is dynamic--meaning it's always changing. The computer models used by the global warming crowd can't even accurately predict what has already happened. (They took known major weather events, fed all the data into their computer models, and came up with something completely different than what actually happened.)
Europe's attempt at going green has left Spain with an 18% unemployment rate, directly tied to "green" jobs. Most of the attempts at going green have actually failed miserably.
Go ahead and believe what you want to believe, even if it isnt true. To know-nothings, saying something off the top of their heads makes it so. Same deal with the radio demagogues, but thankfully most people arent buying it. Most people care about their childrens future.
Matheson already voted against Barrys scam and tax bill in committee, so make sure to contact him on Friday to remind him to vote against it again. If passed, it will become the most expensive tax increase in American history and affect everyone. It will also seriously stifle any type of economic recovery.
In an interview in 2008 with the San Francisco Chronicle, Senator Obama said that electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket under his plan to fight global warming. He also said that under his plan, if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; its just that it will bankrupt them.
By the way, someone might want to inform Barry that the earth is actually cooling.

In other words, his mansion consumes more electricity every month than the average American household uses IN AN ENTIRE YEAR!!!
Personally, I don't have a problem with Al's $30,000 a year electrical bill, but I do have a problem with this fraud's hypocrisy.
Memo to Al, please refrain from stating that the sky is falling and telling everyone how to live their lives, particularly a majority of those who appear to have a substantially smaller "foot print" than you, until YOU can start following YOUR own rules.
Just the facts. Typical liberal hypocrisy.
