Even Republicans Say We Gotta Do Something About Global Warming

We're all used to hearing the hippie liberals and the latte sipping, Volvo driving elitists yammering on about Global Warming. But did you know that there are actually some conservatives who believe something needs to be done about Global Warming?
Who are these people?

Here's my list of VIPs in the GOP on the topic of GHGs:

• • George Pataki, Govenor of New York, calls for strong national effort to reduce dependency on foreign oil by 35 percent, conference on global warming at Columbia University; urges development of cleaner, alternative fuels; critics say remarks follow pattern of Pataki's rhetoric outpacing action; point to state's limited progress in reducing carbon monoxide from burning fossil fuels

• • The Govenator- Arnold Schwarzenegger. The California pact between Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and the Democratic-controlled Legislature would impose a 25 percent reduction in state emissions by 2020, the most ambitious goal yet set in the nation.

• • Senator John McCain pushed a bill with Joe Lieberman to fight global warming in 2006. But, the bill failed to pass through the GOP-led congress (vote 38-60).


• • Holy-Moly! Even Pat Robertson of the 700 Club is now a "convert" to believing in Global Warming. That is the biggest surprise to me, and potentially a powerful ally in pursuading the conservatives who would never listen to a latte-sipping liberal like me.
