Paul Ryan, the Perfect Anti-Gore
Vice-president hopeful Paul D. Ryan is the polar opposite to former VP Al Gore. Instead of promoting fears, the candidate is a pretty solid skeptic when it comes to catastrophic anthropogenic global warming (CAGW). Romney is obviously comfortable with that stance and is using Ryan to reposition himself on the issue of global warming and energy.
If Romney-Ryan are elected, the global warming problems may suddenly disappear. As a start, the new Congress will likely pass legislation that specifically instructs the EPA not to control any of the greenhouse gases that have a global distribution — and, like CO2, are certainly not pollution in any normal, ordinary sense.

I can only imagine how the CAGW establishment would come down on that legislation…the protests would make the “Occupy” movement look like a Sunday school picnic.
Even better would be to have Congressional hearings that FORCE Michael Mann, James Hansen, et al to put up or shut up and have to debate face-to-face Fred Singer, Lord Monckton, and Roy Spencer for starters.
WaPo, LA Times and others now get money gifts by Ford foundation et al, see Breitbart. The leftist propaganda machine is dying and needs to be propped up with cash injections by their foundations. Can’t survive on its own. The public has walked away.
