Newt Gingrich has said anthropomorphic global warming is real and is dangerous.
Is he telling the truth?

Guess one of my latest answers is valid, here too.

No one can tell the 'truth' about Global Warming.
As Al Gore just stated some more than obvious
details, good for making it popular, but not too
brimming for a scientist. As the ½ prize was more a
friendly pointer from concerned Europeans to reassure
us that they really do not think all Americans are stupid.

For once I agree with Gingrich. He said there were two undisputed areas of scientific consensus on global warming: that the earth is getting hotter and the warming had been caused by human activity. Gingrich said, "The evidence is sufficient that we should move to the most effective possible steps to reduce carbon." Gingrich stated what I've been saying all along,“We should be moving to develop all kinds of new green technology,” Keep in mind the that the article also states, Gingrich’s concession was expected in many news circles as part of his long-shot strategy to run for President in 2008.

Yes, he is. Newt Gingrich is simply repeating what virtually all climate scientists are telling us.
He's not the only high-profile conservative to acknowledge anthropogenic global warming, either. There's Bush, Romney, Giuliani, McCain, Sarkozy, even Huckabee and Brownback (2 of the Creationist Republican presidential nominees).

I tried to read that article, but I threw up when I saw Ann Coulter's face in the corner of the page. I don't know what the reality is about global warming...noone does. I guess we will find out over the next several decades.

Who can tell anymore since the only ones talking about it are politicians. If there were constant news briefs from the scientific community, I might believe it. But, you'll notice, there is always a politician involved with the issue.

Yes, he agrees with the science that we, humans are the main cause of Global Warming.

Oh Good Lord! The offspring of Novak and Coulter all by itself would cause global warming.
