"Also, one of the strongest arguments against anthropogenic global warming is the Medieval Warm Period which had warmer temperatures then we do now."

Only if AGW claimed it's never been warmer. But it doesn't. It only claims the most recent warming has been anomalously rapid. This is a common misunderstanding I see all over the place these days.

"or are we just being told that due to a political agenda?"

Do you recognize there exists a corporate agenda to confuse and mislead the public about this issue to prevent loss of profits? Remember how the tobacco companies did the same thing, misleading the public about the health effects of smoking by paying off corrupt scientists to say smoking is harmless? They did the same thing to conceal the health effects of leaded gasoline before that.

Why were they lying those times, but not this time? Why were the scientists they paid off to say smoking and leaded gasoline were harmless wrong then, but right about AGW?
