By Paul Bedard, Washington Whispers

In a new Pew poll, 77 percent believe in global warming and want carbon emissions cut. So what should GOP critics do? Insiders say: Shift the debate to creating alternative clean energy sources. And stop trying to foil President Obama simply for the sake of handing him a defeat.

Global Warming bunk

The true test on global warming reality is to compare earth with our neighborhing planets. The readings are available. Earth temp changes are the same as our neighbors. meaning: Orbit change, solar flares, and the sun itself has an impact on our temp. Not global Warming.

With that being said, Global Warming is an absolutely horrible science and those that practice it are modern day witch doctors.

However, I sure the increasing fumes, from our spewing, spitting horseless bugy, etc. are having more of impact on us than temp change. So. full steam ahead Witch Boy and may your illogical logic rid us of these horrible travel machines.

Big oil supports IPCC report

Sorry, the full link got cut off. The Web-site is www.exxonmobil.com You'll have to do some work for yourself to read the report. On ExxonMobil's home page click on Energy & Environment. I believe it will be worth the effort, at least for some of you.

Big oil supports IPCC report

The page link below is from ExxonMobil's official corporate Web site. ExxonMobil agrees with the 2007 IPCC report and is rightfully proud that it's two top scientists who worked with the IPCC share in the Nobel Peace prize. BP Oil, Shell and Chevron's official corporate Web sites also state that they agree with the IPCC report.

Hysteria? Left wing agenda? Biased "main stream media"?Mis-information? Those claims just don't seem to hold water anymore, at least not to some of the largest oil corporations in the world.
