By pouring so much money into pushing a single, scientifically-baseless agenda, the Government has created not an unbiased investigation but a self-fulfilling prophecy.And we are about to spent another trillion or so (give or take $100 billion) and pass cap and trade legislation.

The government is spending too much money on stupid stuff. There are some better programs to be spending the money that can make the difference in the nation and in the economy. Why do we have to spend money on stuff that does not contribute in any way at all. I will start by closing down NASA. There is a good chunk of money spend on this program. The results are not that great and I think we are still the only country worrying about going to the Moon and Mars all the time
