The earth goes through natural heating and cooling periods. I learned that in the 6th grade. Having said that, I am all for people being good stewards of this planet. But Al and his cronies are hyping people up with fear tactics, which is a good motivator for them.

Well said man. Being a good steward and using FUD to make you buy product they have large stakes in ($1.8 Bil for Al Gore in green techs) are two very different things.

That's because Palin and her hot air isn't in Alaska to melt them

I would take this to mean you have a crush on her by calling her hot.

No, that just can't be.

Several people on this forum have very clearly said that we are in the midst of a severe human caused global warming epidemic and that we should give all our money to developing nations and start living in grass huts, using only non polluting body heat to stay warm.

Many of these same people have claimed that we are nearly out of oil and that the price would continue to go ever up until only the rich can afford to buy it.

Just wait, you'll see...

Me probably amongst them. Perhaps on the developing nations issue we can can share a laugh about the Sierra Club's take that as people in the 3rd world use 1/6th the energy we use, we should ban immigration to the west as it increases their carbon footprint. 'Lefties with a 'right wing' stance
