As the global warming fraud unravels, it?s a good time to look at the
politicians who have been some of the most outspoken advocates, using
global warming/climate change to advance ?Cap-and-Trade? legislation and
other related laws and regulations.

Top of the list is President Barack Obama who has made many references
to ?climate change? and ?global warming? to further this national and
international fraud. He?ll pick up his Nobel Peace Prize in December;
the same one given to Al Gore and the United Nation?s Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change a few years back. Further proof of his mendacity
will be his attendance at the UN Climate Change Conference in Denmark.

Speaking on World Environment Day last June, Obama said of global
warming, ?We?re going to have to make some tough decisions and take
concrete actions if we are going to deal with a potentially cataclysmic
disaster.? This mirrors years of similar doomsday statements by former
Vice President Al Gore.

This is the kind of drivel Americans and others around the world have
heard from their supposed ?leaders? for far too long.

As we move through the congressional hierarchy, one of the biggest
prevaricators about global warming/climate change has been Speaker of
the House, Nancy Pelosi (D-C) and her counterpart in the Senate,
Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), manages to wheeze about it from time
to time.

Former presidential candidate, Sen. John Kerry, (D-MA) has been leading
the fight for ?Cap-and-Trade? but after much reflection former
presidential candidate Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) concluded his support of
global warming was a mistake.

Sen. Kerry said that failure to pass the Senate version of ?Cap-and-
Trade? (of greenhouse gas emission credits) would be comparable to
another 9/11. He also has blamed tornadoes on global warming. The man is
a complete idiot.

Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) has uttered every global warming falsehood and
has been joined by Rep. Edward Markey (D-MA) and Rep. Henry Waxman (D-
CA). All three have played a critical role in advancing the ?Cap-and-
Trade? bill despite the fact that it is a massive tax on energy use and
based on a lie.

Writing for the Huffington Post in October, Sen. Boxer said, ?Global
Warming is one of the greatest challenges of our generation. Addressing
this challenge also represents enormous opportunities for economic
recovery and long term prosperity.? Her commentary was titled, ?Telling
the Whole Story on Global Warming?!

Never mind that global warming has been the excuse environmental groups
have used to stop the building of coal-fired plants, nuclear plants,
drilling for oil offshore in our continental shelf, et cetera. There?s
no economic recovery to be found in so-called ?green jobs? and
prosperity is a small light at the end of a very long tunnel as the
result of the Obama administration?s investments in ?renewable energy?
and massive increase of our national debt.

Among the other politicians hovering around Cap-and-Trade have been Sen.
Jay Rockefeller (D-W.VA), Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont), and Sen. Jeff
Bingaman (D-NM). Sen. Bingaman is a big fan of ?renewable energy? (solar
and wind) and proposed a nationwide renewable electricity standard even
though it provides barely one percent of all the electricity Americans
need and use every day.

Among the nation?s prominent governors, California?s Arnold
Schwarzenegger has been vocal about environmental issues, many of which
have left Californians trapped by idiotic measures ranging from
restrictions on fireplaces in new homes or the purchase of large screen
television sets. California?s failure to anticipate its growing need for
electricity has left it dependent on importing it from other states.

Meanwhile, over at the Environmental Protection Agency, they are using
global warming to justify securing the right to regulate carbon dioxide
emissions, claiming that they ?cause? a global warming. The expose of
the phony ?scientific? data behind this massive fraud should, if truth
mattered, end this power grab. The ability to regulate CO2 is the
ability to control the use of all energy in the nation. That should be
stopped!

Alone among his colleagues, Sen. James M. Inhofe of Oklahoma (R) has
been the one outstanding voice for reason and for truth about global
warming. The odds are that history will not give his courageous effort
to expose the massive fraud the recognition he deserves. The nation owes
him a debt of gratitude.

The lesson we can draw from this is that the next time any U.S. Senator
or Representative, let alone the President and any member of his
Cabinet, says anything positive about ?global warming? or refers to
?climate change? to justify some action, they are lying to you.
