WHY NO HEARINGS ON "GLOBAL WARMING"? Because they can't get scientists to lie under oath. In fact, most reputable scientists say the planet is getting cooler. "Voodoo" science is being used as an excuse to impose draconian legislation. The truth is: that 97% of CO2 emmissions -- the cause of so-called global warming -- occur naturally; of the final 3% America only contributes .6% -- a negligible amount.
