Senators Call Obama On His Energy Lies | Power Line

Now, however, Obama’s re-election campaign is in trouble, in large part because voters aren’t happy about being impoverished by Obama’s anti-energy policies. So, in an absurd turnabout, Obama has postured himself as an advocate of “drill, baby, drill.” In order to defend himself, Obama has repeatedly and consistently lied about his own administration’s policies and about America’s energy resources.

Given the essential principle of polar amplification, the only conclusion which can be drawn is that GISS and HadCRUT are both complete crap. Temperatures had to have been warmer in 1906 than they are now.
