A brain-washed journalist at the Telegraph in England is shocked, I tell you, shocked, at the evil of the evil oil companies. He breathlessly writes:

ExxonMobil, the world’s largest oil company, is continuing to fund researchers who cast doubt on global warming, despite public promises to cut support for climate-change sceptics.

How dare they! Science is not about debating opposing hypotheses or vigorous intellectual debate, it is about consensus! Didn't Exxon get the memo from Al Gore? Included in their list of shocking sins, is the fact that Exxon gave money to the Heritage Foundation. Let's take a look at the proof of just how evil they are. Here's what they dare to say, mocking the mantra, and frankly, the should all just be burned at the stake:

The Heritage Foundation published note last year that said: “Growing scientific evidence casts doubt on whether global warming constitutes a threat, including the fact that 2008 is about to go into the books as a cooler year than 2007”.

You see! They admit it! They're evil!
Even more laughable is the follow up piece I saw in the Sydney Morning Herald, where another journalist manages to get even more breathless.
According to Bob Ward, policy and communications director at the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at the London School of Economics, the Heritage Foundation has published "misleading and inaccurate information about climate change".
Hmmm. The director at a climate change institute doesn't have any vested interest in this debate after all ... Oh yes, and that journalist posts a devastating rebuttal to the Heritage Foundation's fact that 2008 was cooler than 2007.
Scientists say that any apparent cooling is due to natural changes and does not alter the long-term warming trend.
Well, that really cut them down now didn't it! "Scientists" say it. Oh mortal blow! How will the Heritage Foundation ever recover from such dagger-like wit? That will really silence them from their evil ways.
I mean really ... when the only way Global Warming fanatics can bolster their case is through political lobbying to cut funding to anyone who dares question their creed, and through hopeless displays of lack of logic, how can anyone take their faith seriously?
