    Global warming skeptics repeatedly make the claim that scientists only support AGW because their political patrons demand it of them. Since they apparently don't know what it looks like when politicians improperly insert themselves into science, I would like to present the following example.

    Nothing like posting about the Merchants of Doom's favorite conspiracy theorist. Naomi Oreskes has jumped the shark claiming your pets will die. Do you ever look into the foolish claims of some like Oreskes?

    I see you are not much better than the paranoid Oreskes that sees evil around every corner. Have you looked up any of her other crazy claims yet?

    What about this skeptic? He's more than just skeptical, weather and climate is his business.

    How shocked should we be that when the leftist scientist who make a living from government grants found out that the earth was actually marginally cooling for over a decade changed the name of their "global warming" fraud to "climate change" and their religiously loyal left-wing followers bought it like a one pound gold bar priced at $3.00?"
