Because I knew someone would come in here screeching that I'm generalizing, as if I claimed ALL AGW deniers come from the GOP. Again, as I stated, statistically speaking, if you are anti AGW, or believe their is no scientific consensus, you MOST LIKELY come from the right. This isn't debatable, or hard to find evidence for.

"All told, 163 elected representatives in the 113th Congress have taken over $58.8 million from the fossil fuel industry that’s driving the carbon emissions which cause climate change."

Want more links? How about something that addresses Fox news coverage of climate change, and how it can be linked to AGW denial.

"In these pieces, I identified 6 separate studies showing Fox News viewers to be the most misinformed, and in a right wing direction–studies on global warming, health care, health care a second time, the Ground Zero mosque, the Iraq war, and the 2010 election."

"These studies tend to take the same basic form. First, they survey Americans to determine their views about some matter of controversy. Inevitably, some significant percentage of citizens are found to be misinformed about the core facts of the issue–but not just that. The surveys also find that those who watch Fox, or watch it frequently, are more likely to be misinformed."

How about instead of me having to post 100000 links, you read what I write, how I write it, and if you have problems with it, then we can debate fairly.
I get that you fancy yourself a climate expert. You've been trained as such, and you either currently or did work in a related field. You CLEARLY know much much more about climate science than I do. I am not equipped to debate you on technical details. That's why I rely on reading tons of information about arguments from both sides, not just listening to one person.
