“There’s thousands of scientists that have a different view. We should be hearing everybody’s voice on both sides,” [Rep. Larry Bucshon (R-Ind.)] said.

But focusing too much on attacking climate change could end up hurting Republicans, a GOP strategist said....

We MUST do an end run around these GOP strategists. (I will call them LOBBYISTS!)

Our representatives THINK we worry about Climate Change (they are CONFUSED or believe we are "stupid") and we need to EDUCATE them.

Read this (in full) and then send it around.

S. Fred Singer: A Suicidal Collapse of Western Civilization? "....US media, academia, and other opinion-makers are chiming in. In her latest work of science-fiction, Harvard’s Naomi Oreskes, co-author of the mendacious Merchants of Doubt, imagines a future world devastated by climate change. She generously gives the West another 80 years--well beyond her own life span, of course. But she totally ignores the dangers of rising Islamo-Fascism and of demography."......

I wouldn’t waste my time “attacking” the climate change kooks. I would just quietly cut off all the funding. If they complain, then just ignore them.

Cut back on the government grants until the enviroscammers get their heads straight, get out of politics and back into science.

MIT Professor Jonathan Gruber built and sold (raked in millions) a MODEL to show how ACA would HELP the U.S. healthcare system -- it is destroying the best healthcare system in the world.

Climate scientists build and promote (loving all that grant money) climate change MODELS that elites are using to sell green dictates (EPA has been unleashed) -- environmental regulations are killing our economy.

Haven’t you heard, Timothy? The climate is on hiatus.

If we concede the junk science behind global warming, we lose the war.

I’ve heard that liberals were upset that Inhofe will be the committee chairman. In their world, we are supposed to listen with shock and awe as they tell us the world is going to come to an end, unless we pass a cap and trade bill.

Republicans need to add a new word to their lexicon - “Gruber”. “Grubering” is where rats obfuscate, distort, confuse, omit information contrary to their position and outright lie to get the public to go along with their leftist agenda.

The public has certainly been “Grubered” when it comes to anthropometric global warming.

For those who said it would make no difference if the GOP took the Senate Inhofe taking the Chair of the Energy committee is plain proof that they are wrong.

Inhofe is one of the most vocal critics of global warming and is now in charge of energy in the Senate. Thank God.

But some GOP strategists wonder whether such an offensive might backfire.

Yeah despite the fact that the majority of the country thinks and knows the whole thing is a hoax. Leave it to the Repub-Es to completely ignore the will of the people just like they do with foreign invasion. "80% of the country is against foreign invasion, b-but maybe I should support Obamas ScAmnesty anyway"

Science is always “on trial”, that’s how it works. Peer review is essential. Getting answers that you want to believe is ideology or religion.

Exactly. The most they deserve is ridicule.

How about telling the American people about the EPA’a land grab in their newest interpretation of the Clean Water Act, extending their control over every bit of water in the USA? This should be stopped in its tracks. Whoever controls the water, controls the economy, and that should absolutely not be the environazis in the EPA.

“Democrats often say 97 percent of climate scientists agree that humans are causing the climate to change, “

Bunkum! That number has been debunked! And a great many of the scientists who believe man is having an effect, admit that the effect is so minuscule that it has no effect in real terms. Approaching abdo-lute zero!

They should use hearings to give reputable climate skeptic scientists a platform to be heard, which the media hasn’t.
