Are you incapable of even considering any fact, scientific or otherwise, which is not in alignment with your political bias? Are you incapable of considering that at least a few of the T-party, rightwing jack leg politicians and talking heads might be as beholden an "unwholesome" agenda as their leftist counterparts. If you want the scientific truth you will not find it in politics or political commentary.
There is very likely a profit motive behind big oil's embrace of climate change to the extent it might discourage coal burning (surely even you can recognize that burning less coal will be good for the air) and encourge natural gas (not as good as wind, solar or nuclear but a he// of a lot better than coal). That same motive does not neccessarily color their own scientist's opinions. You see, Wixie Poo, scientists have a much higher concern for ethics than you and any typical politician. Besides, why are you suddenly concerned with the future of big coal...are you a miner??
