From National Review Online, Jeremy Carl writes Liberal Denial on Climate Change and Energy.

Excerpts:

Taken as a whole, the Golden State poll suggests that many liberals have a deeply ideological view of energy and climate and policy, one in which certain “truths” must be accepted to show one’s moral virtue while genuinely inconvenient truths are ignored. Conservatives, always appropriately skeptical of liberal utopianism, have reacted against that by redoubling their skepticism. While the media and liberal politicians attack them, conservatives know that it is hard to have a rational argument with a fanatic about the subject of his fanaticism.

When facts contradict theory the scientist adjusts his theory; the ideologue tries to edit, rationalize or adjust the facts.;
