You can almost hear the deafoning silence concerning the data gathered by the NASA Aqua, satellite which recently confirmed the climate models used by the global warming hucksters have been completely false. That hasn't stopped Al Gore, who is so in denial of the reality, that he's now enlisted the help of the newest dupe, Google (Nasdaq:GOOG), who is allowing Gore's propaganda to be coordinated through its web tools, as well as launch a $300 million campaign in an attempt to persuade others, even though it's not only built on incorrect data, but the propagators are knowingly ignoring it and pretending the data doesn't exist. Here's what Kathleen Rogers, president of Earth Day Network, had to say recently, "We're really excited about this because Congress keeps saying they don't hear from the American public on climate change. The [presidential] candidates are not being asked about climate change. Climate change is the biggest threat to humanity that we've ever faced."
