This is what I don't understand; why it has to be about insults. We are stupid because we don't believe you, Al Gore and big business about global warming? No money in it? Run "Climate change profit" through Bing and see how many articles come up about billions in research grants. Al and G.E. make no money on green stuff? Please.

The same government that ran the Tuskegee syphilis study, subjected soldiers to radiation and was supposedly wrong about Saddam's WMD's? Now they are automatically right without a challenge? See, I am old enough to remember being taught about the coming ice age and how we should paint the ice caps black with soot to absorb heat. It was not that long ago...

My whole point, and the one that never seems to get addressed is why do so many global warming advocates live their lives with massive carbon footprints. Obama, Striesand, Kerry, Gore, Clooney, Edwards, Kennedy's etc etc fly all over, live in multiple mansions and burn way more than there fair share yet tell us our clothes dryers are ruining the world. "People like Kerry was already rich before anyone really started talking about global warming..." Your quote. So that means his lifestyle is set, even though he produces more carbon than hundreds of other people? Seven mansions.

I get tired of my betters like you telling me how to live. That's why arguing quoting facts on both sides all day gets us nowhere. We both could do it from fancy sounding websites. I would rather look at the people pushing it and say, "Why don't they live like they believe it?" Al Gore buying carbon credits from himself is like me buying calorie credits from myself after eating a donut.
