Besides this reason: they attribute bribes from the oil companies to scientists who are skeptics as the reason for their outspoken skepticism; but don’t realize the same type of argument can be used against them, such as "global warming alarmists who are scientists receive money to study and promote global warming theory and thus that must be the reason for their alarmist attitudes".
News and comments on global climate change, global warming and greenhouse effect
How about Al Gore flitting about the world in a private jet….can you say ‘Carbon Footprint’?
Liberals and hypocrisy go hand in hand
"Waxman has to meet Michael Jackson’s plastic surgeon to fix that nose as it is clearly a nose of a pig."

"…why would any American listen to that nutcase…"

"Here again Pegminer, Dana attack those who disagree with them over silly arguments not related to the original issue."
-Starbuck
"I can’t wait to see Dana’s, Dawei, Beren’s take on this. One can only guess what it will be and I bet it will have to do with something like these aren’t real scientists or they are witchdoctors but let’s wait and see."

Hypocrisy is easy to find, no matter which side you are looking on. ALL people are hypocrites in some way or another.
Nancy Pelosi is a fine example. Here is what she claims:
“Later this afternoon, the House will pass legislation that ends taxpayer-funded subsidies for Big Oil and creates a Strategic Energy and Renewables Reserve. For America to be safe and strong, we must take further decisive action now to free our country of its dependence on foreign energy sources and to confront the rising tide of global warming.
“Today, I am proud to announce plans to create a Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming to raise the visibility of these urgent issues and gather critical information to protect America’s security. The Select Committee will not have legislative jurisdiction, but will help develop information that will help us give these issues the legislative priority they demand.
“I am asking the committees that have jurisdiction over energy, environment and technology policy to report legislation on these issues by June. We hope to have legislation on global warming and energy independence through the committees by July 4th, so that this year, Independence Day is also ‘Energy Independence Day.’
“The science of global warming and its impact is overwhelming and unequivocal. We already have many of the technology and techniques that we need to reduce global warming pollution, and American ingenuity will supply the rest. With this new Select Committee, we demonstrate the priority we are giving to confront this most serious challenge.
“Now is time to act; the future of our country, indeed our entire planet, is at stake.”
Right after making her statement, she plopped her big mushy butt on board a high carbon footprint C-17 and flew back to Frisco. She did not use her low carbon footprint magic broom! Now do you understand?
Here is a C-17…..

do you think these ‘cats’ turn the faucet off while brushing their teeth? HECK NO! These people really don’ t care about towmorrow,,,theyre’ just looking to earn a buck in a zelously growing field. Do I believe harmful emmissions hurt the environment ( to a degree, I guess),,but I also believe the universe (like our own selves),,have a great ability to heal itself. I can about harmful emmissions because I don’t like myself or my loved ones to get cancer. I really think this is the unlying factor,,why everyone is hyper about pollution these dayz. Yep,,it’s health, we are concerned with,,,not loosing the earth.
I hope everyone who took a colon cleansing agent before your colonescopy, has joined the class action lawsuit about the fact that the medines will hurt your liver tremendously.People need to be their own scientists, these dayz,,,so it seems to be,,AND very akeen to what is going on in your world
Just for fairness, ask yourself: How are global warming deniers hypocrites?
…………………
It’s not my intent to be condescending here, but you have too many presumptions and assumptions to reply to. Look, thousands of scientists and ordinary people like you and me have been reading for 20-30 years predictions of rising temperatures. May I include your nemesis, a senator from Tennessee in the list? Should we talk about a recent administration who have deliberately limited findings and what should have been open discussion and debate, distorted facts, altered or prevented regular reports from appearing, and who have been obviously influenced by huge industries because they have not prepared themselves due to the blindness inherent in people for short term financial gain at the cost of long-term environmental demise? Have you read ANYTHING by Jarred Diamond?? Do we need to talk about the International Geophysical Year in 1957? See, and you know, that climactic change happens on geologic time-scales (Just how long is 35,000,000 years, anyway?), and maybe that’s why you’re angry – do you want a simple, linear rise in temperatures, nothing complicated so that we can actually SEE the frost line advancing northwards by 18 miles per YEARº every April?? I read, on occasion, respectable scientists, whole groups of them too, who argue the denier’s side of the issue (which is a good thing) – and think that, well, TIME. WILL. TELL. Particularly when rising CO2 levels do you-know-what, and the threat of methane release from tundra and the seabed floor just might cook the turkey free of charge!! Joy – and your butt as well. Anyway, entire nations defensive and offensive, foreign and domestic policies are being based on long-term climactic changes. Water policy, agricultural policy, medical response to spreading disease, refugees are today a huge issue, energy policy, war-preparation. The deniers are being hypocritical and are definitely LATE TO THE GAME… (It all started when we began to ask about how the surface of Venus came to be the way it is… Look into the earliest Venus explorations in the, I think the late 70′s or so. Were you born, yet?) If I had a point in this forest of points, it’s that if the deniers are right, okay!! – things are still okay and the warners were wrong. We lose, but everybody wins. Wonderful – somebody, maybe everybody gets to laugh and make lovey-dovey in 200 years.
But, what if the warners of global warming ARE right?
Now, I’ve just spent 30 minutes writing a reply to your question – I hope you spend at least 30 minutes thinking about my last question. Share what I’ve written with a friend, or foe, and discuss it – and answer that last question, would you, please??
Here is the reason deniers are hypocrites as well, the entire world is blind to temperature including the deniers. Can you understand the concept of something warming means there has to be a source of heat?
In order for the atmosphere to get warmer and change weather, we need to have a heater of some kind that is warmer than atmospheric temperature. Have the deniers seen it either?
The alarmists can’t see it either but climate is changing, the argument exists as to what is causing it. The problem is their science of C02 and Greenhouse Gases being the cause of global warming is seriously flawed but all they had to go on.
We have great environmental laws and protection, hard to enforce what you can’t see. All professionals were asked, are you heating the air and everyone said no, it was illegal. It must be that darn C02 and emissions causing the earth to warm.
That doesn’t mean emissions are good either, there are loads of toxins associated with emissions but have you ever tried to heat something from the top down? It defies the principles of heat rising.
Take a look at this time-lapsed infrared video to see 1 building being radiated. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZkmdIPbTZ8
Here is a link to a whole development being radiated. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4xnYY25ToA
Here is what happens on the inside of the building and we are reacting to the symptoms with emissions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9AEgopYYmtI
We are all hypocrites and blind at that.
Many scientist involved in denying have , or are working for companies that produce CO2. Most denier scientists are individuals. Most scientific organizations such as The National Academy of Science, NOAA, NASA, have reached a consensus that man caused global warming is occurring. It would be foolish to cast aside the warnings of these major science organizations, and listen to the few lone wolfs out there.

Need I say more???
Because they tell you it is man made, revealing their limited understanding of the energy levels involved.
Both sides of the subject has its hypocrites. The way I see it is that global warming is real, BUT 99.99% of global warming is natural and not man made !
If you wish to slow the man made part of global warming then there is only one thing that will work……….STOP MAKING PEOPLE !
If you wish to have less nuke power plants or hydro power dams or wind farms or whatever then there is a very easy way to not need the power…..get off the grid ! If a single nuke power plant can provide power for say one million homes then get one million GW/Green Peace/tree hugging/save the owl people together and have them unplug from the power grid ! No TVs, no computers, no cell phone chargers, no place to plug in your hybrid car, etc !
Consider the damage to man made global warming all the GW scientist/supporters do when they travel around the world to conventions and meetings !!!!!
Years ago I had a young lady at SeaTac airport crying when she said she was flying over seas to attend a "Save the World" rally and I told her flat out how she was doing more damage flying overseas then all the vehicles driving in Seattle in one month ! I told her to impress me she would have to get a row boat and paddle her nice *** across the ocean to attend the meeting ! Now that would impress me !
As far as your question….if they wish to be alarmist and if it makes them feel good doing so then I guess its OK, they just better not get into a chat with me about it !
They are confidence artist. Frauds of the worst kind.
because they ignore the real data and take some data and twist it to make it fit their agenda … the Oil companies have the best facts ….BECAUSE they all have staffs of extremely competent geoscientists … and it is geoscience that holds the key to the past understandings of climate change …. the climate change has been going on long before man even showed up on the planet so I really doubt that man now is suddenly controlling it … The only thing being controlled is the media by the Dems … to push their own false agendas …. to raise our taxes
