The Atlantic Describes the New Politics of Climate Change

http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2011/01/bad-climate-for-global-warming/69926/

The climate for climate change has changed. This article shows how the battle has shifted since cap and trade was defeated in the Senate. The focus is now on limiting the role of the EPA which has left to fight the battle alone. Nine of the last 10 years have been the warmest in history but the climate change deniers are winning the war. The climate has changed in Washington because the GOP and Democrats from energy producing states have sold out to the energy industry.

The cold weather in the Northeast and in the Southeast this winter has given the ignorant ammunition to support their denial of climate change. They have no idea that the problem is Global Climate Change and that scientists look at the changes over years and decades. We have prostitutes in the Congress who think of nothing beyond the next election and we have an electorate that gets its information from the sell-outs in the media.
