The House Intelligence Committee approved a provision late Wednesday as part of a spy budget bill that would require the National Intelligence Council to produce its highest-level assessment - a National Intelligence Estimate - specifically on climate change.

“Republicans rejected the endeavor as an unnecessary distraction from higher priorities.”

Hope they do better than they did with Iraq’s WMDs...

BTW, why is an intelligence agency study globull warming? For who? Is globull warming the new enemy for the Democrats now that they declared the GWOT doesn’t exist? Might say their priorities are screwed up — What’s new they are Democrats and if globull warming alarmism makes socialism more appealing to the masses, then globull warming it is.

Democrats, higher taxes, fund socialism and gun control. All you need to know about anything they do or plan to do.

Save the taxpayers the burden. All the answers can be found at the Thermo 101 class taught about four blocks away at GWU.

What a waste of time and tax-payer money.

Well, at least with the CIA’s proven incapacity for seeing anything on the horizon, maybe we’ll at last get some peace from the chicken-littles in academia and politics.

Sounds like an idea some of the lefties at CIA must have fed to the Rat staffers in the House.

I guess they have nothing better to do than play politics.

Too bad Porter wasn’t able to clean house before he was moved out.

I never heard what they found out about all of the shark attacks they were studying back in the summer of ‘01. That was the boogie man we were supposed to be afraid of back then.

Boy, that’s a relief......

As though they'll have any better luck dealing with it. However, I met someone from this council who told me they had recommended the government fund more experimentation in so-called cold fusion. This was about 6 years ago.

They are just fishing, hoping they can get another group of people to agree that GLOW Bull Warming is gonna kill us all.

IIRC, there was a documentary on TLC or the History channel that came out this past fall that placed climate change as the number one likely most devastating end of the world scenario we face - even beating out such as nuclear war, disease epidemic, super-volcano, asteroid collision, or any other threat we face.

A spot on assessment of the Democrats. Everything for Democrats is first and foremost about politics and power. Whatever it takes. Many Democrats in this country, pols and voters alike, are so detached from reality that they cannot see nor comprehend that they are socialists or support socialism. The people wallow in their ignorance, while the pols, blinded by their lust for power, fail to see their perfidy as the assault on American freedom and Western civilization that it is.
