Global Warming: The Theory that Predicts Nothing and Explains Everything
The Federalist ^ | 06/09/2015 | By Robert Tracinski

A lot of us having been pointing out one of the big problems with the global warming theory: a long plateau in global temperatures since about 1998. Most significantly, this leveling off was not predicted by the theory, and observed temperatures have been below the lowest end of the range predicted by all of the computerized climate models.

So what to do if your theory doesn’t fit the data? Why, change the data, of course!

Hence a blockbuster new report: a new analysis of temperature data since 1998 “adjusts” the numbers and magically finds that there was no plateau after all. The warming just continued.

Starting in at least early 2013, a number of scientific and public commentators have suggested that the rate of recent global warming has slowed or even stopped. The phenomena has been variably termed a “pause,” a “slowdown,” and a “hiatus.”…

But as a team of federal scientists report today in the prestigious journal Science, there may not have been any “pause” at all. The researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) adjusted their data on land and ocean temperatures to address “residual data biases” that affect a variety of measurements, such as those taken by ships over the oceans. And they found that “newly corrected and updated global surface temperature data from NOAA’s NCEI do not support the notion of a global warming ‘hiatus.’”

How convenient.

EUREKA!!!!

We figured out how to make a graph look like it’s still warming!!!! And we have data to prove that the graph is correct!!! Now NOBODY can say that humans don’t cause global climate change. We win again!!!!! YEA!!!

(Lord, save us. Amen.)

Political scientists, scientists who’s decisions are tailored to fit their politics.

that’s because the issue is never the issue.
The surface issue is always just the latest excuse for advancing their agenda.
