People got a taste of the economic impact of scarce energy last Summer, and they did not like it one little bit. It is undeniable now that when Global Warming freaks are peddling CO2 emissions reductions, they are really peddling Worldwide recession and depression. This is a hard sell, to say the least.

What you say is totally true and logical, but "global warming" isn't about logic it is about religion. It is a splinter faith of government worship - the wholly irration belief that a. man is responsible for climatic cycles, and 2 that government can prevent these cycles from happening. Since it is an irrational belief to start with, those who disagree with high priest owlwhore aren't expressing a contrary (and factually supported) viewpoint, they're blaspheming.

Still you could be right, but the arrogance spewing out of Obama's mouth on "sharing the wealth" when he never did anything to create any, and the equally arrogant and willfully ignorant positions of the other top Democrats toward the laws of economics do not give me much optimism. "I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience" and nothing that has come out of the national democratic party in the last couple of decades has given me any cause for optimism.

To put my position another way... Global Warming is like The Homeless.

It is a nicely fuzzy issue that is impossible to prove or disprove. When a Republican is in charge, it is a wonderful thing to bash them over the head with, because it is a problem they cannot solve, if it ever existed in the first place.

However, when Democrats are in charge, the need to bash them is gone, so the problem disappears. It's not like 3.1 Million Homeless People all of a sudden found places to live the day Bill Clinton was sworn in, but you would have thought they had if all you did was read the New York Times.

Global Warming will be the same way. The Donks were elected. It has served it's purpose. It is time to forget it until the next time Republicans are in charge.
