yes. The politicians on the left have just hijacked the issue in order to raise more money to fund more leftist policies. A nice side effect is that their solutions will make it harder on poor ppl and thus need more gov assistance. Rinse and repeat

This isn't as clear as you think it is.

I think you are saying this:
"Are Global Warming activists using the doom and gloom predictions to scare people?"

If that is your question then the answer is 100% yes, Global Warming alarmists are screeching about the end of days like a cultist.

I'm going to nominate this as the worst wording of a thread title in history. But I think I can beat it. I'm gonna start a thread titled:

Is drink restriction music counter to moose migration? Your opinions?

Wee Wee had no problem understanding the way I worded the question.

I hear lefties say all the time that the claim ISIS is a threat to the "homeland" is just the Right using the politics of fear.

I'm just asking, "Is the claim of Global Warming just the Global Warming truthers using the politics of fear?"

BTW, doesn't the climate change all the time?

OK, I'm not familiar with the term GW truthers. I use the terms "GW crowd" and "deniers." If you mean 'Are advocates of GW being true (the left) using politics of fear?' Then, the answer is 'yes.' It's pretty obvious.

Obviously, the way I worded the question was clear enough for you to understand what I was asking.

However, I'll add to my question to make it even more clear what I am asking.

Is the claim of GW just the GW truthers using the politics of fear to get voters to vote for Democrats and against Republicans?

No, no it wasn't.
at all.

You might need to seek an opinion for mental fogs or lack of clear though, because you are now getting defensive about a nonsense statement that only made sense in your head.

I only pieced together what you meant with your other post, it was absolutely confusing.

It's more than that.

GW advocates fall into several groups:

a. Scientists whose income is from grants from foundations who want a GW = true outcome from all research.

b. De-developers who don't like growth and think man should live in harmony with nature in a small shack.

c. Marxists who see GW as a way to attack capitalism.

Dems obviously relate to 'b' and 'c'. But it doesn't get them a lot of votes. People don't go to the polls and vote based on GW.

However, Dems do get all the money from GW advocates who are rich and fall under a,b and c.

Since the term "truther" is used to refer to someone who believes something that is crazy to believe, I coined the term "Global Warmer truther" to refer to someone who believes Global Warming is occurring solely because of the activities of human beings.

truthers of anything don't have anything to back it up. Global warming supporters actually do have evidence to back up their claims.

9/11 Truthers claim the US government attack itself during 9/11 as well as a number of other bogus claims which have been disproven with evidence or science.

97% of scientist believe global warming is real and is primarily caused bv humans. Not a single scientific body around the world disagrees with this view. Only in the USA is public opinion divided on the issue.

You can't use the word truther in this situation.
