The less inteligent probably rely more on instinct, hence right wing, and that makes their views more realistic and practical, unlike the often unworkable, idealistic nonsense of the intellectual.
So you're a right winger then?

Very leftwing thinkers, as CAGW believers tend to be, are very similar to very rightwing thinkers, blinkered. I think you'll find most intellectuals somewhere in the centre.
You may be onto something; it is certainly the case that those who deny what the science is telling us tend to be on the free-market, libertarian right
Climate change is a result of the greatest market failure that the world has seen, Sir Nicholas Stern, whose review last year warned of the economic and social costs of climate change, said tonight.

Yes that is true. It is interesting that your lot are led by those who think that the rest of society owes them a living and people who are serial public servants. There is a clear agenda here because climate change is being used politically to screw money out of the wealth creators.
With the morality of tax being blown apart there has to be a new "moral cause" behind taxation - climate change (whatever happened to "man made global warming?") is that morality, only it is proving a b**ger to prove:
1. That climate change is/is not desirable and
2. That we can actually do anything about it.
I for one have formed my views on the basis of the people who are making the noises about global warming. On this I am not alone particularly when I see fanatics like pjclarke coming on here serving up what is effectively utterly counter productive propaganda. So if Steve Hughes "The war on terror, global warming, what I see as the small oppressions in the West that are made out to be protections of our freedom... " and Jeremy Clarkson say global warming doesnt exist then this is good enough for me.
