Categorizing Comments on Climate Change

There has been an uproar as of late in conservative media about prominent Republicans George Bush and John McCain's stance on global warming. The responses have brought out opinions of many kinds and help differentiate the prominent ideas on the topics. Here I will outline just a few of the ideas and try and track down proponents of those ideas and links to more information. This will be useful when trying to find a particular perspective on climate change and more information about a point of view.

Here goes:
