Global warming conspiracy theories

I don't think skeptics have been bought off by big oil or are doing their bidding--especially as we see in the emails that The Team mentioned above are deeper in bed with them than the skeptics ever were. A few skeptics have on occasion accepted funding from sources that environmentalists consider 'impure.' Impure, that is, until they donate millions to a famous environmental NGO.

We don't need conspiracies for bad results to come out of this. All we need is for politics as usual, media as usual, science as usual and the public as usual to get the same usual mess of garbage. And we're getting it in spades.

I Hate Al Gore » The now embarrassing subject of global warming

Next month President Barack Obama will be in a very embarrassing position, as will many world leaders, trying to defend the global warming position after the exposure of the hacked emails from the CRU. Global warming still ranks among the lowest of concerns of the American people, but the expenditure of American taxpayer on the Copenhagen Agreement will be immense. My own personal prediction is that Obama will go to Copenhagen, because his Narcissistic Personality Disorder will demand he do so, and present his support as if nothing has happened recently, once again embarrassing his citizens. If given the opportunity Obama WILL sign the Agreement to save face even though his approval rating is rapidly disappearing.
