Have you heard? Senator James M. Inhofe delivered his latest report about the growing number of global warming skeptics. The report identifies over 400 individuals who have scientifically expressed their healthy skepticism via peer reviewed papers.
Al Gore's response? His spokeperson declared that 25-30 of these skeptics may have received funding from Exxon.
If I were a lib, I would jump on that and say, "See! It's industry that is promoting and funding the skeptics. Without Big Oil, there would be no skepticism because it is all manufactured anyway."
After months of not knowing how to address this, I finally figured it out:
Well, no one in the scientific or green community would fund their efforts to dispute the status quo. Where else should they go to get funding?
Funny how lib educators and scientists can exhaust all opportunities for fundraising so they can conduct their research. But when a skeptic does it, they are bad for going to bed with Big Oil.
Duh!
