Climate Deceit: Tom Steyer — the left's answer to the Koch brothers — says he has repented his fossil-fuel sins "based on the scientific evidence" to save the planet and the Democrats. And just what evidence would that be?
please give this another read. it has been severely cut/edited from its original formBillionaire Steyer, having made a fortune extracting fossil fuel from the earth, confessed his guilt July 14 in Politico.
"The more I learned about the energy and climate problems we currently face," he said, "the more I realized I had to change my life."
So now he intends to share his ill-gotten gains with Democrats and green activists who, "based on the scientific evidence," are working to save the earth.
He says he has divested his fossil fuel holdings and is now "working hard to try to move our economy to a more sustainable path, one that need not depend overwhelmingly on fossil fuels for its success."
That's nice, except there is no "evidence" to back up his conversion on the road to Copenhagen.

Sort of like Warren Buffett decrying the dangers of transporting oil in pipelines!
Shouldn’t that be *prophets* of climate doom? ;-)
Hubby wonders who gave this man ‘absolution’ for his sins against the earth. Must be the high priests and priestesses of Gaia.

All the while sleeping on a huge pile of money he made investing in fossil fuels!!!
