We've called Lamar Smith science's Public Enemy Number One - and for good reason. For FAR too long, he has been the nemesis of good science and the greatest champion the oil and gas industry could wish for. In fact, he's accepted more than $700,000 dollars from the oil and gas industry, and he's issued dozens of subpoenas to scientists who contradict his backwards views on climate change.
