For the straight dope on climate change, consult climatologists, not Rush Limbaugh! For every issue there will always be denialists. Among those you will not find much in the way of hard fact, or even expertise--just opinions. Just because one cannot believe something to be true does not make it untrue. At this point, the few who have not surrendered to the data are considered cranks. In the early days of this issue, it was indeed difficult to see clearly; but as outlined below, the facts added up. The squabble has its roots in how a person deals with evidence; indeed how a person decides what constiitutes evidence and what does not
So are we now talking about this "crisis", man-made global warming, or the last crisis, global cooling which immediately preceded it? As I recall that one was just as much of a "fact" as this latest hoax. Ofcourse it lacked a champion, enter Al Gore.
And using Dane Cook to make your point?
How about enlisting Sean Penn to promote higher education, Hitler to promote population control, and of course BHO to promote economic salvation?
