The potential for fraud in this global warming charade is high. If you want to see the potential for fraud realized, just look to the contractors soaking up the dollars in Iraq. It is a drop in the bucket compared to the potential of the global warming charade. You must be planning on getting on the bandwagon because you defend it so much. |

You never saw me defend "it", whatever you mean by "it". global warming of course. |
You've never seen me defend it. You probably saw me ask if you or your two
little playmates thought asthma was an example of fake science, or if you
believe it's real. If you noticed this question, you probably slammed it
because you could not think about where the idea was headed next. The
concept is brilliant. Want to know more?
