Does this Research 2000 poll explain why so many Republicans are global warming deniers?

The GOP is nothing like the party of Reagan and Bush Sr. Reagan represented real fiscal conservatism (yes he ran up a deficit but that was selective use of fiscal policy to stimulate an economy stuck in stagflation. It was nothing like the raping of a strong economy by Bush Jr.) The current GOP party is only a party of hateful Christians.

They care about their social litmus test but understand nothing about economics. The following the simple-minded teachings of Rush and nothing else. The hate science, hate education and hate complex thinking.

We do not have a thoughtful conservative party in America. Many posters here continue to show that they have totally forgotten that Cap-and-Trade was a highly effective economic strategy championed by the party of Reagan. But that party is dead.

NO! Why use negative legislation to promote a positive action. This type of legislation creates a large bureaucracy and high cost which in the end is paid by the consumer.

Why not just offer a tax credit to clean up emissions. A tax credit will make companies more competitive forcing others to follow suit. It is simple and requires a much smaller operating cost to administer.

The consumer will pay less in the end.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
