Who are really the fear mongers after all?

Okay, so 60% of the United States is in a drought.  Studies this summer at different universities all over the country are saying that global warming is responsible for earlier melting seasons, which makes land drier in the summertime and more susceptible to wildfires.

Yet, some like John Stossel (who wants to legalize cousin marriages by the way) claim that global warming theorists are just trying to make everyone slaves to fear.

Please, let's ask ourselves who has the power here: environmental activists or oil lobbyists?  Concerned citizens or companies like Exxon that just reported a three-month profit of $10 billion?  Let's ask who is really in control here?

If oil advocates like John Stossel or Michael Crichton want to travel around the country with the backing of the American Enterprise Institute and give speeches scaring people into believing environmentalists are socialists, then fine.  But blogs like this one are going to call those people on it each and every time.
