Gore Losing the War: 59% Don't Believe Man Is Warming the Planet | NewsBusters.org
On the eve of the inauguration of a president that has bought this nonsense hook, line, and sinker, we can only hope Congress is paying attention to how the electorate feels about this issue.
US allegedly warms up to the global climate change consensus - the European magazine ~ Cafebabel
There are farmers in New York State who drive to the Union Square green market in Manhattan to sell their organic produces and spend only $1 (75 cents or 69 pence) a gallon on fuel. Their tanks are full of cost-free vegetable oils, waste from restaurants’ deep friers that is then converted into biodiesel.

...Others believe that Obama’s charismatic personality will draw more attention to climate change issues in the same way it gained him so much political support, especially among the youngsters. According to Gallup polls, Americans’ confidence in him as a president still ranks at 65%.

In many people’s minds, Obama will act as a powerful leader – able to direct the efforts of change. But his green policies are not a question of exerting charisma, but rather of drawing on political consensus and common sense. Common sense that many feel has been missing in America and other regions of the world for far too long. ‘It was 65 degrees in New York last week,’ says Allison Lardner, 29, a regular at the Union Square farmers market. ‘If you don’t believe in global warming, you’d better wake up.’
American Thinker Blog: The Warmist Shamans
Shaman James Hansen has proclaimed that we only have four years left before the world falls into climate catastrophy. The oceans will rise, species will die, the gates of hell will open, and general wailing and gnashing of teeth will prevail over mankind. Dr. Hansen, director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, is the world's leading witch doctor crusading against manmade global warming. He has taken this title away from Bigfoot Al, who is increasingly reticent in discussing his own giant carbon footprint in public.

Dr. Hansen and his fellow witch doctors must act fast. Using the principle of the Shaman Shamboozle, the evil global warming spirits must be chased away before it is obvious to the tribal masses that the climate is actually getting cooler. In doing so, the shaman ecologists can claim that President Obama's "green initiatives", i.e., taxing anything that emits carbon dioxide, were successful. At that point their political power over the tribe will be complete and irreversable. Let the dance commence before the eclipse begins to wane!
