Where is Charles Schultz when we need him?
Remember the classic series of cartoons with Lucy repeatedly talking Charlie Brown into kicking the football? He kept falling for it in spite of the clear evidence that Lucy lied. And lied. And lied. And lied.
Remember that when you read the headlines about 2014 being the hottest year and how the world is getting hotter. They lie. And lie. And lie. And lie. And lie.
The best summary I have read is at Powerline. It is relatively short and has clear charts. It names names and give details. If you are having a Charlie Brown Moment and are tempted to believe the Lucy will hold the ball this time, read the article.
And remember: They lie. And lie. And lie. And lie....
