Some on the left seem to think CAGW is just a corporate-front group.

Kinda weak, DVautl1. I guess it's easier to descredit the source than to argue against it. You're better than that.

Point being: the group appears to get most of their funding from large corporations, whose interests lie in decreased government regulation - and exist as a 'corporate front' so that their donors can cite CAGW statistics (as they are, at first glance, merely a 'watchdog' group) in various information venues to use against whoever opposes corporate-friendly/deregulation policies.

Politics is a dirty business. I'm sure the left has similar, echo-chamber type fronts. But I don't think it's outlandish to be concerned with the objectivity of sources.

Or, conversely : Kinda weak, BCPVP. I guess it's easier to stand by a biased source than try to find something more objective. You're better than that. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
