Horner: ClimateGate Shows Liberals Are Just ‘In Search of an Excuse’ to Push Their Anti-Capitalist Ideology

Is President Obama’s late decision to go to the Copenhagen climate talks a result of the ClimateGate controversy in which emails were recently revealed that climate scientists have been withholding information and have been using ’statistical trickery’ to fudge their climate data?
That is exactly what Chris Horner of the Competitive Enterprise Institute asserted in an appearance on FBN on Wednesday, saying that the president is not going to Copenhagen in spite of the ClimateGate scandal but because it it.
The ClimateGate emails reveal evidence that global warming was just an excuse for liberals to push their anti-capitalist ideology, Horner infers.

“But cap and trade is energy rationing. It will kill jobs, it’s the point. I have no reason to believe Barack Obama was lying when he said his goal was to cause energy prices to necessarily skyrocket to raise billions. This is an ideology in search of an excuse. The scientists in their own words have now affirmed, not revealed, affirmed.”
