A power struggle is unfolding in Virginia over climate change research.So what do these Democrats have against finding out the truth about global warming? Could it be they find the truth "inconvenient"?
Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli has been taking the University of Virginia to court to get information on a climate change researcher who once worked at the school.
Now several members of the State Assembly say they've had enough and have introduced legislation to rein in Cuccinelli's investigation.
Cuccinelli, a global warming skeptic, is looking into whether UVA professor Michael Mann manipulated data to show that there has been a rapid, recent rise in the Earth's temperature.
Democratic Sens. Donald McEachin of Henrico and Chap Petersen of Fairfax County say their bills won't give blanket immunity to colleges to defraud the state, but they would curb politically motivated probes.
Given that Virginia has a Republican governor I doubt this legislation will be enacted into law, and the pursuit of the truth will continue.

Hey! It's weather. Weather doesn't vote. Nobody votes on what weather they get. How can weather POSSIBLY be political?
Clearly another bogus claim from the Dems.
