During yesterday’s Environment and Public Works hearings, Sen. David
Vitter asked a panel of experts, including experts selected by
Boxer,“Can any witnesses say they agree with Obama’s statement that
warming has accelerated during the past 10 years?” For several seconds,
nobody said a word. Sitting just a few rows behind the expert witnesses,
I thought I might have heard a few crickets chirping, but I couldn’t tell for sure.

Expert witnesses called by Sen. Barbara
Boxer to testify during Senate Environment and Public Works hearings
yesterday contradicted a key assertion made by President Barack Obama on
climate change.
Speaking at a Democratic fundraiser less
than a month before directing the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
to impose costly new restrictions on carbon dioxide emissions, Obama said, “we also know that the climate is warming faster than anybody anticipated five or 10 years ago.”
“I don’t have much patience for people who deny climate change,” Obama added.
