A new Rasmussen poll finds that 59% of Americans are having serious doubts about credibility of the left's "experts" on global warming. With their premiere "research" facility now embroiled in a humiliating scandal that has led to the resignation of its director, people are increasingly beginning to acknowledge what an absurd war on science this really is.
This is not to say that Americans weren't already rejecting this thinly-veiled redistribution-of-wealth scam in droves. Support for the left's radical environmentalist insanity has actually been dropping steadily for some time now, especially as Green Scare propagandists like Al Gore have been so publicly exposed as partisan science-fiction peddlers.
But it was only once "Climate-gate" erupted into what the Telegraph calls, "the worst scientific scandal of our generation" that the number of skeptics reached such staggering heights (not that American TV news media consumers would have any way of knowing). The poll also showed that 52% of Americans widely doubt this contrived "consensus of experts" fallacy, which liberals use to silence a debate they cannot win on fair or honest terms.

Just heard that AlGore has cancelled a meeting with 3,000 folks scheculed for December 13th!
The 41% that aren't skeptical are democrats...
The people that still believe the global warming myth are either unaware they have been lied to or a good example of our dumbed down education system, or both. And then there are those who will profit from it...like Al Bore
59% Americans believe in Climategate. What percentage believes in 911gate?
Robert Moon In Foaming Mouth Rasmussen Poll Shocker!
Rasmussen are a laughing stock Robert, their vested-interest answers always weighted towards a right-leaning confirmative pat on the back, yet you lap them up like a rabid dog with a foaming mouth.
Yet again, you seem totally uninterested in moving forward with change that can reduce pollutants in our atmosphere, and focused entirely on uncovering left-wing conspiracies that you believe (in your paranoid, holier-than-thou, apocalyptic last-man-standing bunker kind of way) are inhibiting your personal freedoms.
Whether or not you are right, scientists throughout history armed with the information they have at the time have made bad judgments - we now know that the world is not flat for instance, what is important is how we use this new information, not spending the following 10 years pointing fingers and saying I told you so. It's a very immature stance.
Rasmussen are to statistics what your "articles" are to journalism.
Robert, based on the list of "useful links" you espouse, your goal is not to provide a disinterested news report.
(The other section entitled "Democrats: Corrupt Partisan Extremists" is a slight give-away, too.)
Your goal is to get out your agenda citing whatever sources you can find for support. Sadly, unsubstantiated viewpoints of all kinds are easy to come by, especially radical ones.
Comprehensive research would lead you to more moderate conclusions and possibly - gasp! - to suggesting a mutually beneficial solution.
You are a hater very thinly disguised as a "journalist".
I encourage you to resist the urge to hate and to use the opportunity your column affords you to be a force for uniting our country rather than dividing it (and prolonging the polarizing gridlock that will fight any positive change from happening).
Got something to say?
