The inevitable Gore-camp intelligent rebuttal:

"After a quick review of the report, Gore spokeswoman Kalee Kreider said 25 or 30 of the scientists may have received funding from Exxon Mobil Corp." (note, that is 25-30 of the 400 scientists in the republican report, even if it were true, that would leave 370-375 scientists that were not funded by Exxon Mobil Corp., and to me that is still a concensus (the GOre camps choosen criteria for scientific "fact") and takes the wind out of Gore & Co. claims the debate is over.

Talk about a vacuous response - "may have received funding". Fine, in that same vein, "Al Gore's momma may wear army boots" ;^)
