Not only that he is making Fox a supporter of carbon offsets. http://bravenewfilms.org/topics/rupert-murdoch
looks like global warming is no longer a liberal issue. what do you think?

Funny thing is that as the evidence supporting global warming has gotten stronger, the far right has gotten more vocal about denying it. The number of people who consider themselves to be conservative and who believe global warming is happening (NOT that man is to blame at all, just that it is happening) has DECREASED over the last couple of years!
Why? because they watch Fox. (And they read Forbes, etc.) And Fox doesn't like anything that's bad for business (business in general, not just their business). They say what they think will please their audience.

Global warming is not debatable, it is only measurable. The opinions of 6 billion humans on the issue has no bearing whatsoever on reality, and that includes Hannity and O'Reilly. Only the scientific measurements have any relevance.
The thermometer measurements say the Earth's mean temperature is going up, therefore it is going up, regardless of what any political commentator believes. Nobody who hasn't done their own global, century-old measurements is in any position to disagree.
Reality does not align itself to your beliefs - reality does not care about your beliefs.

We can not rant however you'll be able to? No reasonable. Your rant on Hannity was once particularly well. Let me see he ranted approximately Rev. Wright and was once proper approximately the racism that got here out of that mans mouth. He ranted approximately Bill Ayers an admitted terrorist so was once proper once more. Michelle did say she had in no way been pleased with her nation so Hannity was once proper once more. Hannity, nevertheless, in no way mentioned that Obama was once a Muslim, a terrorist, a Kenyan citizen, the antichrist or the messiah I concentrate to him so I might recognise. He is ready and looking Obama considering he is aware of and the humans who concentrate to him recognise that Obama is a socialist and is solely ready to institute socialist insurance policies in this nation. Sorry for the rant however I simply might now not support myself.

Hmmm...
Bill O'Reilly has believed in global warming for years and has been arguing for greater pollution controls for just as long. He may not be completely convinced that its caused by human activity, but he's all in favor of strengthening environmental protections.
