Evidence? documentation?

You're a Ron Paul supporter now? You know he claims he's against subsidies for big oil. Otherwise, he's an oil man's best friend, for drilling offshore and in ANWR, against CAFE standards, against supporting the Kyoto protocol, etc. |

And where did you get that little tidbit? Is it a regurgitation from a press release made by a PR company working for one of the many corporations set to make a flipping fortune if the CO2 emission restrictions are passed?
You did know that companies involved in solar, wind and hybrids are paying PR firms to do that, didn't you?

Are you a latter day McCarthyite ? You appear to have a fascination with "Tailgunner Joe". Anyway, here is the site, though I doubt you will be impressed, oil company backers rarely are. Global Warming Skeptics: A Primer - Global Warming - Environmental Defense |
