While this poll is encouraging, I am skeptical of the poll. Most people seem to have been indoctrinated.

[P-40]

staggering 71 percent

Staggering? Sounds like the author is throwing in some bias...or gets paid by the word.

[Ender Wiggin]

Could be the poll was FReeped?

Take the global warming test: http://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/GlobWarmTest/start.html

[hsalaw]

And 65 percent think that scientists' catastrophic predictions if pollution isn't curbed are 'far fetched'.

BWAHAHAHA! "Far fetched" is probably cleaned up from what the 65 percent said originally.

[Ditter]

Good test!

[IC Ken]

Its actually very simple. There is only one thing powerful enough to heat the earth. The sun.

Hi, my name is Al Gore. I am here to say you all need me to explain to you how we are causing global climate change. I also want to ask why no one is taking me serially?

[BenLurkin]

"D'oh!"

[BenLurkin]

Bias.

• Science, not politics
• Statistics needed
• The original denier: into the cold
• End the chill
• They call this a consensus?
• The limits of predictability
• Unsettled science
• The ice-core man
• The hurricane expert who stood up to UN junk science
• Polar scientists on thin ice
• The sun moves climate change
• Bright sun, warm Earth. Coincidence?
• Look to Mars for the truth on global warming
• Read the sunspots
• Forget warming - beware the new ice age

Since no one has real proof as to what causes albore’s new buzzword “global warming”, it’s safe to assume that it’s a natural occurrence until someone comes out with 100% proof positive of what does cause it.

[randog]

I got 100%
8^)

[HEY4QDEMS]

Yeah, but did they poll the folks on Mars?

[BuffaloJack]

Amazing. At 71% this means, to liberals, that the laws of nature have miraculously changed.

[Natty Bumppo@frontier.net]

This proves that three-quarters of the population are smarter than Al Gore.

Al Gore, leading the lowest quartile back to the 17th century!

Three Quarters Believe Global Warming A 'Natural Occurrence'

Most reassuring report I've read in weeks!
Three-quarters of American voters are sane...
Still... 1/4 neurotic and/or insane is scary.

Ya, I know what you mean, people need to take some time out of the day to read up on some basic astronomy, specifically how the earth is tilted on its axis, it’s precession on it’s axis and how these factors relate to the summer and winter solstices. Also how the earth’s hemispheres get closer and farther away from the sun at particular times during the year. I know it sounds like simple stuff you might think you already know but pick up a book you might be surprised how much simple science disproves man-made global warming.
