Why attack the science when you can attack Al Gore?
From the blog Wit's End...
Every denier point has to include Al Gore, usually mentioning his weight and/or his house. They NEVER mention how much money he has spent to green his house, how he gives everything he makes from the movie and investments in green technology to a green foundation to educate morons, and how, the theory (theory, like evolution, gravity, and plate tectonics, not a wild proposition) of global warming is grounded in scientific research, not Al Gore.
I know some people are just going to assume Al Gore is evil. He may in fact be evil, for all I care. But global warming wasn't invented by the former vice-president; nor is the consensus that it is already happening, human-caused, and dangerous a product of his movie. "Al Gore" is a useful shibboleth - if you hear someone utter that name, then you may safely conclude that he or she doesn't care about science, evidence, rational thought, or facts.
In the meantime, three senators made a bipartisan announcement yesterday about forthcoming climate change legislation...
