Because "global warming" is a political issue, not a scientific one.

It was an idea, not fact, until environmentalists realized they could use it to their advantage. We had one of our coldest, snowiest winters in Colorado just two years ago.

Is that anecdotal evidence masquerading as a replacement for scientific evidence?

"Look here, I take a shit in a toilet, so don't tell me Man is related to apes."

I didn't deny global warming anywhere in there. I'm just saying that it is not yet, fact. It cannot be fact until some questions (like the ones above) are answered. Personally, I'm undecided but want to take action anyway.

And by the way, that cold winter was all across North America, I believe (may be wrong).

I remember that winter. Hell, August 2006-May 2008 were the coldest years I ever remember living in Oklahoma. The winter of 2006-2007 especially, school was cancelled for a week because of an insane ice storm that left most of the state blacked out for a very long time. August 2006 was the coldest August I remember, I remember one day it was 58 degrees outside. We had so much rain during that time the Arkansas River actually looked like a river (in south Tulsa it usually looks like a large sandbar).
That isn't to say that Global Warming is false, but it isn't 100% proven either.
