Stand up to the lunacy, Republicans

Where is the Republican leadership on exposing the global climate change fraud? Once again I see our president and others at the G8 summit passing a resolution to control the global temperature.

The new resolution states we will work to make sure global temperatures don't increase by more than 2 degrees. This resolution is possibly the most ridiculous resolution I have ever heard discussed by world leaders. Who died and made these guys the creator? An EPA study, suppressed by the administration, concluded that ocean currents and solar activity are the major causes of global climate change. So I ask these leaders, how do they plan on changing either of these two dynamics?

Of course, this is impossible. If you need additional proof on the global warming fraud read the writings of former Chicago Weatherman and Weather Channel founder, John Coleman, who declared global warming as "The greatest scam in history."

The effect of this irrational hysteria and bills like cap and trade are additional costs for everyone and, more importantly, an additional death knell to manufacturing in Illinois. With the continuing decline in manufacturing output and jobs in Illinois, state revenues will continue to fall, leaving us to face deeper and deeper budget shortfalls. These are the real issues governments should be solving, but instead Obama's out chasing windmills. We need leaders who will stand up to this lunacy and allow our economy the opportunity to grow.

To you Republicans, who will be the first to stand up and say this is a fraud? What are you afraid of?
