Global Warming Hoax Revealed

“More carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is not likely to significantly contribute to the greenhouse effect, its just all part of the hoax.” Rush Limbaugh Radio Program 2007
A Newsweek article the other day did a good job explaining how the Global Warming Deniers have managed to get most Americans to believe scientists are divided on whether Global Warming is real or not.
Even today, contrary to hundreds of empirical studies, thousands of scientists all over the world and the well oiled PR machine working Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth, about half of the American public are not buying the reality of Global Warming.
Down here inside the Dumbass Beltway we understand all too well how that works. It is the same process used to get the majority of Americans to deny evolution. Pretend there is a raging disagreement between scientists, that there is no scientific consensus and it’s a theory rather than a fact. This all works well to the Republican Base who want to believe that whatever people who are smarter than they are have to say is just so much crap.
The Hoax game is funded by the oil, gas and mining industries. The PR work is done by free market think tanks, talk radio hosts and a few conservative nutcases in Congress and the White House. I will not name names of the main players like the American Petroleum Institute, the Global Climate Control Coalition, the Science and Environment Policy Project, the Cato Institute, Fred Sanger, Rush Limbaugh, Dana Rohrabacher and Senator Dumbass his own self, Daniel Inhofe.
“Could be the man-made global warming is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people.” Senator Daniel Inhofe (R – Knuckle Drag)
The industries who pollute the most pay scientists to tout their line of bullcrap. The standard rate for a scientist to naysay Global Warming is about $10,000 per published article and some of the think tanks and lobbies are completely funded by the energy industries. One newsletter, World Climate Report received $160,000 from the mining industry to push the hoax. Money is the biggest draw but conservative ideology brings a few scientists into their fold.

The scientific game is that after empirical studies by empirical scientists (hands on field work and experiments) the conservative ideologues and industry paid talky-talk scientists review the works of real scientists. None of the scientists pushing the hoax do any of the work themselves, they just write reviews and political pieces to call into question the real science and the real scientists. Note too that some of these so called scientists are TV weathermen.
Just like Intelligent Design, this is a well funded handful of paid non empirical scientists pushing a political ideology to call into question the real science to make it seem it’s an equal argument.

My question is not so much Global Warming but the entire conservative spin on the environment in any manner at all. They take such joy in crapting in our nest and direct so much anger at those who want to clean it up I find myself unable to explain the why of it. They do not give two fleas on a tick about our air, water, food, or the survival of the Earth itself they will pass on to our children. How can that be, what drives such inane crap?
Are they so consumed with free market ideology it overrides their own existence?
They don’t care because they will be up in Dumbass Heaven before it becomes serious?
Do they hate Democrats, Liberals and Progressives so intensely that nothing else matters?
Or is it just a simple case of a bunch of genetically self consumed wankers gone wild?
Help me with this please.
