Yeah but ...
Since 1997 more and more Republicans have been embracing global warming and you should listen to the presidential candidates on the right - sounds very positive to me. Some such as McCain and Thompson almost sound Southern Baptist about it. Those media people you mentioned are "shills."
You know what a shill is - get real. It's like kids watching violent cartoons - they know it is fiction.

Oh, weep for Jabailo
Yeah, Jabailo, because you've been so thoroughly censored here in the past.
Gawd knows that "climate change deniers" don't get their share of space here or anywhere else.

Anyway, isn't it fun to watch the wingnuts squirm? Their attacks on the scientific veracity of global warming theories are hilarious! "Al Gore isn't a scientist!" blasts one non-scientist after another.
The fact that Al Gore is actually supported by most scientists (and Rush Limbaugh is not) shouldn't affect their arguments. Gawd no! Because they only like scientists who kowtow to the stated "global warming is a liberal conspiracy" line.
Jabailo/Rush: "I have evidence from this one scientist that all the other scientists are wrong! Why isn't anybody taking me seriously?"
And the lack of seriousness on behalf of the rest of us is indication of "censure." No, we're not rebuking you, Jabailo, we're laughing. Much worse.
