"Climate Gate" Development: CEI Files Notice of Intent to Sue NASA (Paging James Hansen!!)

Today, on behalf of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, I filed three Notices of Intent to File Suit against NASA and its Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), for those bodies' refusal - for nearly three years - to provide documents requested under the Freedom of Information Act.

The information sought is directly relevant to the exploding "ClimateGate" scandal revealing document destruction, coordinated efforts in the U.S. and UK to avoid complying with both countries' freedom of information laws, and apparent and widespread intent to defraud at the highest levels of international climate science bodies. Numerous informed commenters had alleged such behavior for years, all of which appears to be affirmed by leaked emails, computer codes and other data from the Climatic Research Unit of the UK's East Anglia University

That did not take long! Once they haul the 'scientists' into court and get them under oath, with their emails and code exposed, they will crumble.

They are damned if they do, and damned if they don't. If they give up the GISS data, McIntrye will destroy them with the cooking of the books they have done. If they don't give up the data, they will most likely be in contempt of court.

I hope they subpeona that ass James Hansen who has been the main US cheerleader besides Al Gore on AGW. He has used his paid position at NASA to preach his global warming religion and it is time he get cut down to size.

This is just fantastic news not only can this stop this fraud being perpetrated on the American people it also has the potential to stop the socialists plan for a global government.

This is a wonderful development. In less than a week, the global warming issue has been deep sixed and pressure has been brought to force more disclosures.

Hansen is mentally ill.

Lost of people (like Anthony Watts) think this was an inside leaker and not a hacker. This lawsuit is great and only going forward due to the recent CRU hack/expose. All climate skeptics have an immediate boost in status for successful lawsuits for underlying data and code

[expatpat]

Discovery will be a bitch...

[VeniVidiVici]

Yeah, they need to subpoena Hansen’s emails.

[stboz]

I wonder what else consists of lies and more lies? Junk science reaches everywhere.

Pesticides?
Ozone holes?
Diesel exhaust?
Endangered species?
???????

All we need now are some idiot politicians to just say “I was duped too. This is an outrage.”

McCain or Graham may be the two to do it also. But we really need more than just a RINO a registered democRAT will really go a long way to completely wrapping this up in short order.
