ExxonMobile: Obscuring the facts that moonbats made up!

Perhaps the 'Union of Concerned Scientists' could organize 'book burnings'? Never mind that it was done in the 30's...they could say it was wrong then, but correct now.

This is how the liberal's always attact those that don't agree with them. While they are putting out there dis-imformation via federal dollars...Then just how do they suppose that the other side is going to do their studies without someone funding them? I trust the results of the privately funded studies more than I do the results comming from the government funded side. The Liberals started out already knowing the results they wanted. They always manipulate the data that they get accordingly. They have been caught red-handed at it more than once.

Now that they have the Congress, they're coming for you car.

Have a nice day.

...nearly $16 million between 1998 and 2005 to a network of 43 advocacy organizations that seek to confuse the public on global warming science.

There is no such science. Speaking of funnelling money (in this case tax dollars) to advocacy organizations that seek to confuse the public...

[pp 208-216] "On June 23, 1988, climatologist James Hansen testified before a hearing of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee on a day when the temperature in Washington D.C. reached a sweltering 38C... Hansen had impressive data from 2,000 weather stations... which documented not only a century-long warming trend but a sharp resumption of warming after the early 1970s... Hansen flatly proclaimed that the earth was warming on a permanent basis because of humanity's promiscuous use of fossil fuels [sic]... Recently, James Hansen and a group of his colleagues have argued that the rapid warming of recent decades has in fact been driven by non-CO2 gases such as chlorofluorocarbons. Fossil fuel [sic] burning CO2 and aerosols have both positive and negative climatic forcing effects, which tend to cancel each other out. Hansen and his team point out that the growth rate of non-CO2 gases has declined over the past decade and could be reduced even further. This, combined with a slowing of black carbon and CO2 emissions, could lead to a decline in the rate of global warming. Much more research is needed to confirm this hypothesis."

In other words, in 1988 Hansen warned Congress that CO2 would raise world temperatures. About ten years went by, after which Hansen claimed that CO2 doesn't have any net impact at all. So much for his data. Mind you, this came from the book shown below, which is egregiously in advocacy of the notion of "global warming".
