Please.. George Bush couldn't find his dic* with both hands these days. He is too shell shocked from getting beaten up again over his failed amnesty plan for the 30 Million illegal aliens costing Americans something like 2 Trillion dollars. I digress the computer model they based their "theory" on Global Warming to be more than kind - was flawed. The vast majority of the idiots (insert scientists for the word idiots) crying the sky is falling screeching about Global Warming are taking grant money that funds their dubious and dare I say creative non peer reviewed and wholly unscientific research.

See the link to discover just how little of the Earth's atmosphere is composed of carbon dioxide to begin with. It is what .04% at most? See the link below. There is no peer reviewed accredited proof that we created any problem. After all Volcano eruptions and forest fires combine for more than all the cars and factories in the world to putting carbon dioxide in the air. You want to get the tree huggers angry point them towards China who polluted one of the largest (formerly) potable water supplies in the world due to chemical spills. Europe's rivers are twice as contaminated as rivers are in the USA. Pick something out that man can fix. All the fuss over Global Warming is just the rest of the world teaming up to figure out how to tax Americans. Of all the lunacy I have had the pleasure of reading the people in the UK having to pay a $20 Euro fee carbon tax to bbq or grill food on their charcoal grills. Those people have WAY too much time on their hands inventing ways to tax Americans. Let us not forget the on-going struggle at the UN as it tries to gain control of the Internet for the sole purpose of redistributing the wealth. Too bad the Europeans who so desperately want to control the Internet are not creative enough to create their own Internet system? Me, well I would rather worry about where the missing 115 Russian small man portable suitcase tactical nukes are at this moment in time that just vanished not too many years ago. Now that is something worthy of worry keeping you up at night drinking heavily.

"Carbon dioxide makes up just 0.04% of the entire atmosphere, and most of that -- at least 95% -- is naturally occurring (decaying plants, forest fires, volcanoes, releases from the oceans).

At most, 5% of the carbon dioxide in the air comes from human sources such as power plants, cars, oilsands, etc."

Here is a link to something the Global Warming shrill doomsday scenario shouters should have a reason to worry. Lets all let the Tree Huggers fix the problems they created and can take full blame for when the Democrats were in control of both Houses of Congress with John Kerry championing the bill passage that forced MBTE to be added to all gasoline sold in the USA. Ground water contaminated by MBTE is harming up to 40 million people in the USA. Again to be perfectly clear we all can take a moment to thank a Democratic Congress and John Kerry for that bill forcing this vile substance into the gas for our cars for a few more mpg per tank of gas. To make it even better they knew exactly how dangerous this crap was before the first batch was put in the first gas tank of our cars around 1984. Ask the 40 Million Americans today drinking and showering in this vile contaminated water which problem real or fictional that they should really be worried about? Of course they can spend trillions of dollars on research to stop all volcanic eruptions in the world both above and below sea level if they want to control global warming. After all that .04% of carbon dioxide in our air is..................nothing to worry about at the end of the day.

"There were voices within the oil industry that warned against the use of MTBE, on grounds both of public health and cleanup costs from the inevitable leaks. An April 1984 memo from an Exxon employee said:

"[W]e have ethical and environmental concerns that are not too well defined at this point; e.g., (1) possible leakage of [storage] tanks into underground water systems of a gasoline component that is soluble in water to a much greater extent [than other chemicals], (2) potential necessity of treating water bottoms as a 'hazardous waste,' [and] (3) delivery of a fuel to our customers that potentially provides poorer fuel economy.... " (Emphasis added.) (Click for document)

The memo was ignored by the employee's superiors.

The record is clear. Individual oil companies, and the industry as a whole, knew that adding MTBE to gasoline posed a serious threat to water supplies everywhere it was used. With full knowledge of the danger - but also of the profit they stood to make - they lobbied hard for the use of MTBE, then withheld or covered up evidence of its environmental and health risks.

Now that their own words and documents have surfaced to prove their culpability, oil companies offer one demonstrably false defense: "The government made us do it." And they are looking to Republican leaders to use the energy bill to protect them-instead of protecting water suppliers and consumers-from having to pay billions in cleanup costs for MTBE contamination in tap water."

read this story in the two links below if you want to worry about something folks. MTBE is a real problem unlike the Global Warming hot air. I disagree with the premise or the excuse in that article that Congress is not to blame for MBTE. It was the mandate of laws passed by Congress that initiated that this crap go in the gas. The sad truth is that too many legislators freely admit they sign bills they have not bothered to read. Now they are trying to turn it around and put the blame on Republicans for shielding the oil industry from future law suits. This just shows how Americans get reemed when Big Brother passes laws to look out for "us." John
