Rich,
What a dumb meteorologist. I especially like one of the links somebody included in the comments below the norcalblogs site:

The idea of fouling our own nest doesn't have to be a partisan issue. It's too bad, in a big way, that Gore took up the issue and made it look liberal.
One of our greatest conservative presidents, Teddy Roosevelt(R)(
http://www.whitehouse.gov/history/presidents/tr26.html ), was also a Nobel Peace Prize winner. He basically gave us our National Park system and was also an enthusiastic wildgame hunter. He'd probably turn over in his grave at some of the pollution we now have ...but he, too, using common sense, would likely have been a skeptic regarding some claims made by the extreme left.
About 1/4 of US pollution is produced by the auto/petroleum combo. In 1987, auto companies reported their best mileage, 26 mpg. Ronald Reagan was our president. A few years later the mileage had dropped to 24.7 ...Clinton was in. Clinton exempted SUVs from CAFE. GM threw him an inauguration party.
So now we are that much more dependent on foreign
oil. Thanks, Bill C.
Hillary is no better when it comes to corporate influence.
Corporate influence is permeating our political ranks on both sides these days. It's hard to trust the influx of information and it's all about the money. One doesn't have to be a crazy environmentalist to admit there is a limit to wrong vs the right thing to do.
