The other thing is, that physicist he linked to, resigning in a big huff over the global warming hoax? Nearly none of the participants in that body of scientists receive a dime of gov't money for their work. And that's easily verified by looking up grants etc, since it's all public.

The other link about a lack of scientific agreement, was written by a gentleman who works for a right wing think tank mostly funded by fossil fuel industries. Never mind the game being played, the argument moved from any scientific papers arguing over agreement as a whole about global warming, to just random polls. So you're seeing terms being mixed up and really confusing the situation in the public mind.

You know, I can bet you this week's paycheck, I can find a doctor that will tell you cancer isn't caused by smoking cigarettes. Oh wait, the tobbaco lobby tried that route in the 1960s and 1970s and 1980s and 1990s.
