I'm all for Global Warming, Because it sure is Cold here
Its not a secret that I'm an admirer and supporter of Ron Paul. Rep. Paul recently spoke up about global warming and in deed his website has a category devoted to the faux science driving our current infestation of green policy.
Recently, Ron had this to say: "Contrary to claims repeated over and over, there is no consensus in the scientific community that global warming is getting worse or that it is manmade. In fact over 30,000 scientists signed a petition recently directly disputing the claims on which this policy is based. Legitimate environmental claims should instead be directed towards the public sector. The government, especially the military, is the most serious polluter in the country, and is exempt from most EPA regulations. Meanwhile Washington bureaucrats have classified the very air we exhale as a pollutant and have gone unchallenged in this incredible assertion. The logical consequence is that there will come a time when we will have to buy a government permit just to emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from our own lungs!"
Imagine that! A tax on the emissions from your lungs because of global warming. And yet, where I live in northern Illinois we've had 40 °F nights with 60 °F and 70 °F days up until present. The 4th of July is going to be 60 °F and rainy cold.... so please, send some of that global warmth my way.
