    thousands now which ones are those? Global warming is not a left or right issue it is a GLOBAL issue. Also I like how you are ignoring my other posts in this thread.

    Clearly you have no clue what you're talking about. "Tree hugging leftist" have nothing to do with it. Oil and mining business are going to make their profits regardless, until your beloved government regulates them into bankruptcy, and then requires them to take bailout money and the government moves in and takes over.

    There is only ONE group who stands to profit ... it is the government.

    The oil and mining companies which btw are multinational corporations have little concern and care about the US people or the envorinment. They care only about one thing profit. If you disaggree just look at what Exxon did since they lost in the Exxon Shipping Co. v. Baker. They fought the outcome of the settlement because it is cheeper to fight the settlement in court then paying the money they owe. The amount of interest they made from fighting against the victums far exceeds the money for court fees. It is sickening. Those companies care more about money then about any one country. Atleast the government will atleast try to give back to the people not the case with these multinational corporations.

    I used the reference(when he mention that this was the cause of the left) of the previous poster. If you actually read all of what I wrote I said this was a GLOBAL issue.

    I'd rather have the gouvernment running economic sectors that under the wrong hands can severely damage a nation because the gouvernment has a veiled intrest in keeping the country whole so they can gouge as many people in perputity as they can. Oil and mining companies will move to Africa at the first siren's call. Why people who distrust gouvernment (and I happen to be one) have such inhernet trust in corporations is beyond me.

    My view is, there is not currently any reason to regulate carbon dioxide. Global temperatures are roughly where they were in the mid-20th century. They're not going up. If anything, they are going down.

    The Administrator and the Administration (Obama) have decided to move forward... and your comments do not help the legal or political case for this decision. -- Al McGartland, EPA official



    That's very damaging to the libs global warming case... ouch

    Mr. Carlin is an economist, with no scientific credentials whatsoever.

    Very damaging for T_J's slight-of-hand facade of faux scientific "legitimacy". Ouch. Keep grasping at straws. Every time you point to "scientific pronouncements" from economists and English professors, you just make the tenuous desperation of your faith-based viewpoint more evident.
