EPA Memo Suggests No Proof of Carbon Dioxide's Dangers; But Liberals Push Back That This Is Just Craziness Peddled by Bush Holdovers

Ignore our memo, the liberals now say. It included passages from people who don't always agree with us and is, obviously then, heretical.

The quotations circulating in the press are from a document in which OMB simply collated and collected disparate comments from various agencies during the inter-agency review process of the proposed finding. These collected comments were not necessarily internally consistent, since they came from multiple sources, and they do not necessarily represent the views of either OMB or the Administration.

The memos note that cap-and-trade will of course harm the economy, and, even worse, that the finding that CO2 is a dangerous gas is unproven:

“In the absence of a strong statement of the standards being applied in this decision, there is concern that EPA is making a finding based on…’harm’ from substances that have no demonstrated direct health effects,” the memo says, adding that the “scientific data that purports to conclusively establish” that link was from outside EPA.

But this will be rewritten in 24 hours, scrubbed of any of that doubt I'm told by liberals is so vital for critical thinking, at least when it comes to doubting my own beliefs.

The science is settled.

What part of "the science is settled" don't you morons understand? Probably the "science" part, you corncob-smokin' banjo-strokin' cousin-pokin' inbred hillbilly retard mutants.
