Senator makes case against global warming

This speech from James Inhoffe of the Senate does a good job of blasting away the more out-there global warming arguments, such as the "hockey stick" graph that shows the Earth's temperature staying steady until spiking with the increase of fossil fuels.

However, he's a little too skeptical of the notion that humans have caused some global warming. One major anti-global warming voice was Reason's Ronald Bailey -- until a study in Nature found the errors in his favorite study's analysis. I'm not qualified to evaluate data sets like this, but from what most experts say it seems pretty fair to say that the Earth is warming (though probably not catastrophically) and that humans have had something to do with it. When the author of "Global Warming and Other Eco-Myths" flips sides publicly, it's tough for non-scientists not to take heed.
