Actually yes.
AGW started out as science, it was understood that it was speculation. Now every liberal politician and celebrity thinks they're an expert and that catastophic global warming is inevitable and they have a moral duty to do something about it.
You can't get rid of all the liberal politicians though. For all the faults and failings of democracy, it's still the best form of government that money can buy.

Yes a lot of hype but its mostly true. Nothing speaks louder than the events of recent to the reality of Global Warming. Mostly, I hate that the rich get richer and we lose freedom every time get too liberal or to conservative.
I have learned over the years that it's better to listen to everyone and find out why and what they have to say. Then I weigh it in my mind and do my own research.
In the end, I started to appreciate the different opinions everyone has and realise that diversity is not only good but the ultimate answer. I have tested this before but you can put it to the test yourselves. Yes usually you have one person who gets the right answer in the group, but when you take the average answer in a group of 12 or more people you almost always arrive at the right conclusion. It's both a mathematical probability and psychology in action.
So, love and appreciate all people is my answer. If we could get the whole world to appreciate each other for their differences, would would likely always come to the right conclusions.
I think this philosophy applies to religion, politics and the environment in general.
But I'll value your right to disagree. :)

Hello, asker
Sorry I cannot answer your ‚question’ concerning ‚politicians’ because you don’t say from which party or government or parliament or country they are.
In the internet forums numerous people ask and ask and ask questions about ‚politicians’ like yours.
So I guess you are a part of a group that has something against parlamentarian democracy, will say against democracy.
Many people today seem to have a poor opinion of democracy: Not only do people often disagree with political decisions, and the members of parliament are seen as unscrupulous, willing to do anything to gain power, or abusive of their position and privileges.
Do you try to influence us with this poison, too?
Kind regards,
Rolf

Yes. It is the money that liberal politicians give to climatologists that supports the theory of global warming. These liberal politicians only give money to scientists who support their agenda.
Paleoclimatologist Tim Patterson, of Carlton University in Ottawa:
Patterson says his conversion (from believer to skeptic) “probably cost me a lot of grant money. However, as a scientist I go where the science takes me and not were activists want me to go."
Mathematician & engineer Dr. David Evans, who did carbon accounting for the Australian Government:
Evans noted how he benefited from climate fears as a scientist. “And the political realm in turn fed money back into the scientific community. By the late 1990's, lots of jobs depended on the idea that carbon emissions caused global warming. Many of them were bureaucratic, but there were a lot of science jobs created too. I was on that gravy train, making a high wage in a science job that would not have existed if we didn't believe carbon emissions caused global warming. And so were lots of people around me; and there were international conferences full of such people. And we had political support, the ear of government, big budgets, and we felt fairly important and useful (well, I did anyway).

You could get rid of every politician on the planet and it wouldn't make global warming go away. It's a simple scientific fact, so simple that you can demonstrate it to yourself in your own home. Unfortunately some skeptics have an irrational fear of facts and wouldn't want to demonstrate it, seeing the evidence with their own eyes would shatter their dillusions.

No more than getting rid of biologists is the solution to evolution, or getting rid of astronomers is the solution to heliocentricity.

That is called 'killing the messenger'.
Liberals did not cause global warming, they just called it to our attention.
Global warming would exist without liberals, and furthermore if you notice the new popularity of being 'green' in housing, manufacturing and automotive didn't start until liberals woke us all up.

Maybe, but it would certainly cut down on the entertainment factor of politics. What's a circus without the clowns after all?

Won't work unless you get rid of these guys too.
"Former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich challenged fellow conservatives to stop resisting scientific evidence of global warming"
"National Review published a cover story this past week calling on conservatives to shake off denial and get into the climate policy debate"
"Pat Robertson (very conservative Christian leader) 'It is getting hotter and the ice caps are melting and there is a build up of carbon dioxide in the air. We really need to do something on fossil fuels.”
Ford Motor Company CEO William Clay Ford, Jr. "I believe there is now more than enough evidence of climate change to warrant an immediate and comprehensive - but considered - response. Anyone who disagrees is, in my view, still in denial."
"The science of global warming is clear. We know enough to act now. We must act now."
James Rogers, CEO of Charlotte-based Duke Energy.
"Republican governors team up against global warming"

"(from Republicans for Environmental Protection) The consensus of almost all climate scientists is that global warming is already happening, that human actions are causing it, and that it will cause major problems for our planet."

If by "getting rid of" you mean voting out of office, then YES I agree.
You could also put them in internment camps or send them down to Git-mo, but that's as far as I would go with it.
