And the replies have proved you to be a prophet. It is very sad that the US is soooo ignorant and yet they believe with such passion that they are
right. Even after its own government admitted to distorting the evidence of global warming for political reasons. I mean how dumb do you have to be
to continue to believe in a lie AFTER the liars after admitted to it......JESUS!!!
And you're trusting the government on it now!!
I don't think you even realise how hypocritical you were just then.
So you've established that governments can lie about topics such as global warming (don't you mean "climate change"?) for political reasons. Now
governments around the world, inluding the US, are pushing for urgent action to combat the "disastrous" effects of anthropogenic CO2...
I think I'll re-quote you to show the hypocritical nature of your post (even if it doesn't really make sense).

The Good News this morning is that Mr. Obama is dropping the aggressive "Cap and Trade" legislation that was planned for early next year - see here:

That may have been fortunate, but I think you've misread the article you posted. I'll post some excerpts here.
President Barack Obama plans to announce in next year's State of the Union address that he wants to focus extensively on cutting the federal
deficit in 2010 – and will downplay other new domestic spending beyond jobs programs, according to top aides involved in the planning.
.............................................................................
All presidents promise deficit reduction – and almost always fall short. There is good reason to be skeptical of this White House, too, on its
commitment.
For starters, the White House has not dropped plans for an aggressive global warming bill early next year that will be loaded with new spending
on green technology and jobs – that would be paid for with tax increases. Democratic lobbyist Steve Elmendorf says the White House focus on deficit
reduction could easily kill the cap-and-trade effort. “I think this means cap-and-trade has to go to the backburner,” he said.
The Obama administration has continuously lobbied for urgent action against climate change. So I'd say it is highly unlikely that they'll be
dropping any aggressive (so-called) remedies for climate change any time soon.
You only have to look at who Obama appointed as his climate change "czar" to see what direction the US government is headed.
Carol Browner was a member of an organization called Socialist International. Although, on her appointment, her name dissapeared off the Socialist
Internationational website, but screenshots can be found in
this
article. Why it was taken off, I don't know.
Socialist International have close ties to the UN and have produced some "interesting" papers regarding the UN's vision of becoming a world
government, via funding from climate change.
For more information on Socialist International and the UN's intentions regarding climate change, see this thread I started
