Newt Gingrich, while debating John Kerry, rejected Inhofe's intransigence and acknowledged:
the evidence is sufficient that we should move towards the most effective possible steps to reduce carbon-loading of the atmosphere.
Meanwhile, Drew Ryun, son of the former Congressman and current candidate Jim Ryun, thinks that we should ignore the conclusions reached by the National Academies of Science, the thousands of scientists who wrote the IPCC reports and the governments that unanimously approved them. On what basis does he say this? Because he was able to find one scientist who isn't so sure, and has made a career of denying climate change.
When Newt Gingrich of all people is to your left, you're running the wrong way.
