Asked in December 2008 what his advice was for then-President-Elect Barack Obama, Spencer responded, "He should put off the environmentalists indefinitely. ... Tell them we have to fix the economy first before we can afford unaffordable renewable energy 'solutions.'" -SourceWatch

In other words, he's against taking steps which should be a priority even if GW turns out to be overrated. FAIL. --Woozle 20:39, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
